How the Microwave Function Works

Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio, television waves, and ordinary daylight. Normally, microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect.

This oven, however, has a magnetron that is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to create microwave energy.

These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven. A tray is located inside the oven. Microwaves cannot pass through metal walls of the oven, but they can penetrate such materials as glass, porcelain and paper, the materials out of which microwave-safe cooking dishes are constructed.

Microwaves do not heat cookware, though cooking vessels will eventually get hot from the heat generated by the food.

A very safe appliance

Your Microwave oven, is one of the safest of all home appliances. When the door is opened, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves. Microwave energy is converted completely to heat when it enters food, leaving no “left over” energy to harm you when you eat your food.

NOTE

When the oven is not used, it is recommended to unplug it from the electrical socket.

This symbol will alert you to hazards or unsafe practices which could cause bodily injury or property damage.

WARNING

1Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, door seals, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven which would involve the removal of any cover protecting against exposure to microwave energy. Do not operate the oven if the door seals and adjacent parts of the microwave oven are faulty. Repairs should only be undertaken by a qualified service technician.

•Unlike other appliances, the microwave oven is a high-voltage and a high electrical-current piece of equipment. Improper use or repair could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy or an electrical shock.

2Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidification. (For example: Operating the microwave oven with wet newspapers, clothes, toys, electric devices, pet or child etc.)

•It can cause serious damage to safety which can result in a fire, burn or sudden death due to an electrical shock.

3The appliance is not intended for use by young children or elderly persons. Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

•Improper use may cause damage such as a fire, electric shock or burn.

4Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away.

•They may get burnt.

5Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are likely to explode. Remove the plastic wrapping from food before cooking or defrosting. Note that in some cases food should be covered with plastic film, for heating or cooking.

•They could burst.

6Be certain to use proper accessories on each operation mode, refer to guide page 8.

•Improper use could result in damage to your oven and accessories, or could cause sparks and a fire.

7Children should not be allowed to play with accessories or hang down from the door handle.

•They may get hurt.

4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

8It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

9When the appliance is operated in the combination mode, children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the high temperatures generated.

CAUTION

1You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism. It is important not to tamper with the safety interlocks.

•It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy. (Safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened.)

2Do not place any object (such as kitchen towels, napkins, etc.) between the oven front face and the door or allow food or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

•It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.

3Do not operate your oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door(bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loose), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

•It could result in harmful exposure to excessive microwave energy.

4Please ensure cooking times are correctly set, small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time.

•Over cooking may result in the food catching on fire and subsequent damage to your oven.

5When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven,

*Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks.

*Do not overheat.

*Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.

*After heating, let it stand in the oven for a short time; stir or shake it again carefully and check the temperature of it before consuming to avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars).

•Be careful when handling the container. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling without evidence of bubbling. This could result in hot liquids suddenly boiling over.

6An exhaust outlet is located on the top, bottom or side of the oven. Don’t block the outlet.

•It could result in damage to your oven and poor cooking results.

7Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use. The water will safely absorb all microwave energy, if the oven is accidentally started.

•Improper use could result in damage to your oven.

8Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless your cook book contains instructions for the food you are cooking. And do not use newspaper in place of paper towels for cooking.

•Improper use can cause an explosion or a fire.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 5

Microwaveable-Safe Utensils

Never use metal or metal trimmed utensils when using microwave function

Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce off any metal object in the oven and cause arcing, an alarming phenomenon that resembles lightning. Most heat resistant non metallic cooking utensils are safe for use in your oven. However, some may contain materials that render them unsuitable as microwave cookware. If you have any doubts about a particular utensil, there’s a simple way to find out if it can be used in the microwave.

Place the utensil in question next to a glass bowl filled with water when using microwave function. Microwave at power HIGH for 1 minute. If the water heats up but the utensil remains cool to the touch, the utensil is microwave-safe. However, if the water does not change temperature but the utensil becomes warm, microwaves are being absorbed by the utensil and it is not safe for use when using microwave function. You probably have many items on hand in your kitchen right now that can be used as cooking equipment in the microwave. Just read through the following checklist.

Dinner plates

Many kinds of dinnerware are microwave-safe. If in doubt consult the manufacturer’s literature or perform the microwave test.

Glassware

Glassware that is heat-resistant is microwave-safe. This would include all brands of oven tempered glass cookware. However, do not use delicate glassware, such as tumblers or wine glasses, as these might shatter as the food warms.

Plastic storage containers

These can be used to hold foods that are to be quickly reheated. However, they should not be used to hold foods that will need considerable time in the oven as hot foods will eventually warp or melt plastic containers.

Paper

Paper plates and containers are convenient and safe to use when using microwave function, provided that the cooking time is short and foods to be cooked are low in fat and moisture. Paper towels are also very useful for wrapping foods and for lining baking trays in which greasy foods such as bacon are cooked. In general, avoid coloured paper products as the colour may run. Some recycled paper products may contain impurities which could cause arcing or fires when used in the microwave.

Plastic cooking bags

Provided they are made specially for cooking, cooking bags are microwave safe. However, be sure to make a slit in the bag so that steam can escape. Never use ordinary plastic bags for cooking in using microwave function, as they will melt and rupture.

Plastic microwave cookware

A variety of shapes and sizes of microwave cookware are available. For the most part, you can probably use items you already have on hand rather than investing in new kitchen equipment.

Pottery, stoneware and ceramic

Containers made of these materials are usually fine for use when using microwave function, but they should be tested to be sure.

CAUTION

•Some items with high lead or iron content are not suitable as cooking utensils.

•Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the microwave.
