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.

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.

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 on the oven, and the
door closes properly. A dented or damaged oven
could allow microwave energy to escape. Make
sure that you have taken all the packaging from
inside the microwave. Please dispose of the
plastic wrappings or 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 oven 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 (230-240 volt, 13 amp rated).
Avoid using a socket that also has an adaptor
and other equipment plugged in. Do not use a
multi-adaptor.

that you x some non-slip cushion pads (not
included) to the underside of the microwave.
