GB-6
Safety Information
Do not use these in your Microwave
• Metal objects are not to be used in the microwave. This include: – Metal cooking utensils. – Metal plates or trays – Wine twist ties – Crockery with metal trims – Meat thermometer
• Never use equipment made of metal, except foil in your microwave. The microwave
energy cannot pass through the metal so it bounces o and sparks against the inside of the microwave.
• Stop the microwave straight away if any equipment is causing sparks.
• Remember that some crockery has a metal trim around the edge. Even this trim can cause
sparks.
Checking your Cooking Utensils
Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cooking utensils are safe to use in your microwave. If you are not sure if you can use a utensil in your microwave, follow this simple test:
1. Put the utensil into the microwave next to a cup of water – use a cup that you know is microwave safe. Close the door.
2. Turn the microwave on for 30 seconds only.
3. After 30 seconds, carefully check to see if the water has warmed up.
4. If the water has not warmed up but the utensil has, the utensil is not microwave safe and should not be used in the microwave.
5. Do not use your hands to touch the utensils as it may already be hot.
Before Use
Containers
WARNING : Pressure will build up in sealed containers and can cause them to explode.
Therefore, do not use the following in your microwave:
– Sealed containers – Capped bottles – Vacuum containers – Sealed jars – Hard-boiled eggs – Eggs in their shells – Nuts
• Always pierce the skin of fruit and vegetables, such as potatoes.
• Never use scratched, cracked or damaged glass in a microwave. Damaged glass can
explode.
GB-7
Safety Information
Delayed Boiling
Liquids heated in a microwave can boil up when removing them from the microwave.
Take the following precautions :
• Always stir liquids, before and after cooking.
• Allow them to stand.
• Use containers that are wider at the top than at the bottom.
Preparing food for Babies
Extra care must be taken when preparing food or drink for babies and small children.
• Always test the food or liquid temperature before feeding it to the baby.
• When using a baby bottle, ensure the teat is removed before heating.
• When warming milk, ensure the bottle is shaken.
Caution!
During cooking the outer surface will become hot. Do not touch the outer casing of the microwave. Care should be taken not to store any items on top of your microwave.
Earthing Instructions WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
• This appliance is equipped with a mains cable having an earthed plug.
• The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed
and earthed in accordance with all local standard and requirements.
GB-8
Warning!
• Improper connection of the appliance-earthing conductor can result in a risk of an electric shock.
• Check with a qualied electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly earthed.
• Never modify the plug provided with the appliance.
• If the plug does not t properly in the mains socket, have a qualied
electrician to install a proper mains socket.
Using Aluminium Foil in your Microwave
It is safe to use aluminium foil in your microwave as long as you follow these safety guidelines.
As with all metal, microwave energy cannot pass through foil, but provided that you keep the foil away from the side of the microwave it will not cause sparks and there will not be any damage to your microwave.
Using foil is a good way of shielding parts of food that you do not want to cook as quickly as others – perhaps where the food is narrower and would otherwise overcook.
Place the foil over the area you want to shield, taking care that the foil will not touch the sides of the microwave when the turntable rotates. Only use one piece of foil at a time so that you do not get sparks between the separate pieces.
Follow these guidelines when using foil in your microwave:
• Remove foil lids from containers before using in the microwave. Some lids are made of card with a foil covering – these should be removed too. Use a microwave safe
transparent lid if possible.
• Stir food during cooking if the container has a lid or lm cover.
• Always use the glass turntable.
• Use shallow containers with a large surface area. Do not use containers that are more than
1.25in (3.5cm) deep.
• Use gloves when handling hot foil containers.
• Do not completely cover food with foil. The microwave energy cannot pass through the
foil so the food will not cook.
• Do not let aluminium foil touch the inside of the microwave.
• Do not use more than one piece of foil in the microwave at the same time.
Before Use
GB-9
Unpacking and Getting Ready
This microwave is designed for home use. It should not be used for commercial catering.
1. After unpacking your microwave, check that it has not been damaged whilst in the box. Make sure there are no dents, and the door closes properly. A damaged microwave could allow microwave energy to escape. Make sure that you have taken out all of the packaging from inside the microwave. Please dispose of the plastic wrappings/ bags safely and keep out of the reach of babies and young children.
2. Choose a at work surface for your microwave away from heat sources such as radiators or res and away from cold areas. You should allow a 10cm space all around the microwave and 30cm above so that warm air can escape from the vents during cooking – This microwave is not designed to be built in. (See Fig. 1)
3. Plug your microwave into a standard household electrical socket (230 volt, 13 amp rated). Avoid using a socket that also has an adaptor and other equipment plugged in. Do not use a multi adaptor.
4. Put the turntable ring inside the microwave and place the glass turntable on top of the ring. (See Fig. 2) The turntable is shaped to sit securely on the spindle. You must always use the turntable and ring whenever you use the microwave.
5. To protect your work surface, we recommend that you x some non-slip cushion pads (not included) to the underside of the microwave. (See Fig. 3)

GB-10
Introducing Microwave Cooking
Always remember the basic safeguards you should follow when using any cooking equipment or handling hot food. See below for basic guidelines in microwave cooking.
Cooking with a Microwave
• Cooking with a microwave is much faster than conventional cooking and, whilst you should make sure that food is fully cooked, you should be careful not to overcook it.
• Microwave energy can heat unevenly so stirring to distribute heat is very important. Always stir from the outside, inwards.
• If you are cooking a number of individual foods at the same time, such as baked potatoes or small cakes, arrange them evenly on the turntable so that they cook evenly. Never stack food in your microwave.
• Turn larger foods such as meat roasts and poultry during cooking so that the top and bottom cook evenly. It is also recommended to turn pieces of meat or poultry, especially if they have not been deboned.
• Meat and poultry which is cooked for 15 minutes or more will brown lightly in it’s own fat. Anything cooked for a shorter time can be brushed with a browning sauce to give an appetising colour.
• Strips of aluminium foil can be used to cover the thinner pieces of food to stop them overcooking before the thicker parts of the food have had a chance to cook. Use the foil sparingly and wrap around the food or container carefully to stop it touching the inside of the microwave which could cause sparks.
Before Use
• Microwave ovens cook food using microwave energy that is similar to naturally occurring radio waves. Normally, these “waves” would fade as they dispersed into the atmosphere but in a microwave they are concentrated onto the food causing it to heat up.
• Microwave energy cannot pass through metal – so it cannot escape from inside your microwave – but it can pass through materials like glass, porcelain, plastic and paper. These materials are used in the manufacture of microwave safe cooking equipment.
• Microwave safe cooking equipment will still get hot as the food it contains heats up.
The microwave energy focuses on the moisture in the food causing lots of tiny vibrations. The vibrations get so great that the moisture – and the food – heat up. (See Fig. 4)

GB-11
Microwave Heating Categories
Your microwave has been tested and labelled to meet the government’s voluntary agreement on the reheating of pre-cooked food.
The heating characteristics and output power levels of microwave ovens are usually calculated using a relatively large portion of food (a 1000 gram load, IEC 705) but many packs of pre-cooked food are sold in smaller packs, often about 350 grams. The government, in partnership with food companies and microwave manufacturers, have set up a system of heating categories to help you choose the reheating time for pre-cooked food.

Steam
When you microwave food, steam is created as water in the food heats up and evaporates.
The steam formed during microwave cooking is entirely safe. It has to escape from the microwave to prevent pressure from building up inside the oven. It does this through the vents on the back of the microwave and from around the door.
Condensation
As the steam cools, you may nd that condensation gathers in small pools inside your microwave and on the work surface beneath the door and vents. Always dry the microwave after cooking foods with a high moisture content.
Your microwave is designed to let steam escape from the vents and around the door without microwave energy escaping. (See Fig. 5) There is no danger of microwave energy escaping with the steam.

Cleaning Your Microwave
Cleaning your microwave each time you use it will help to prevent a build up of stubborn marks that can be dicult to clean. Unplug your microwave from the mains and wait for it to cool down completely before cleaning. On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover, microwaves are passed though this to enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave guide cover is kept clean at all times. Wipe it with mild detergent and water and leave to dry.
Make sure you keep the outlet grids clean.
The oven walls have a special enamel coating which makes cleaning very easy. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe o any splashes or a paper towel to mop up any spills. Wipe o grease with a damp cloth and a little detergent. Dry thoroughly. As with any , if grease is left to accumulate, it can smoke and even catch re.
Wash rack and turnable ring in warm water. Do not use very hot water on them which could make them warp.
Treat the glass turntable as you would any glass plate. After you have used it for more than 15 minutes, allow it to cool down before you use it again. Do not wash the glass turntable in very hot water, doing so could crack it. Make sure the glass turntable and turntable ring are dry before you put them back in the oven.
GB-28

Keep the front of the oven clean so that the door can close properly.
Be careful not to spill water into the vents.
Do not remove wave guide cover: It is important to keep the cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the microwave.
If grease is left to accumulate, it can smoke and even catch re.
Unplug the oven before cleaning the power lead and the oven.

microwave, the yolk can sometimes pop as steam builds up inside it. You can stop the egg from popping by piercing the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs that are still in their shells.
With microwave cooking, many foods build up enough heat inside them to continue cooking even after they’ve been taken out of the microwave. Because microwave cooking works from the outside of food inwards, standing time lets you cook the centre of the food without the outside being overcooked.
First check that the microwave was set just as the recipe said. Cooking times and heat settings are suggestions to help prevent overcooking but dierences in the weight, size, shape and starting temperature of food will all aect how long it takes to cook – just as it does with a conventional oven. Use your judgement along with the recipe to check whether the food has been cooked properly.
Condensation is perfectly normal, especially when you are cooking food with a high moisture content such as potatoes.
No. The door has a special metal screen with holes in that lets you see inside but stops microwave energy from getting out.
No. The door and vents are carefully designed to let steam out during cooking but keep microwave energy in. The gaps are not big enough for microwave energy to escape.

Yes. Make sure that you are not using any metal utensils and that your containers don’t have a metal trim. You must not use metal in your microwave when you cook (except aluminium foil).
No. It is normal for the light to be visible and is nothing to be concerned about.
