1.
Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance.
3. Check to ensure that the control panel is
programmed correctly and the timer is set.
4. Check to ensure that the door is securely
closed engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow into the oven.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFY THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT NEC SERVICE CENTRE. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.
1 Make sure that all packing materials inside
the oven are removed.
2 WARNING: Check the oven for any damage,
such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surface, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven and contact NEC Service Centre.
3 This microwave oven must be placed on a flat,
stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in the oven.
4 Do not place the oven where heat, moisture,
or high humidity are generated, or near combustible materials.
5 For correct operation, the oven must have
sufficient airflow. Allow 20cm of space above the oven, 10cm at back and 5cm at both sides. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance. Do not remove feet.
6 Do not operate the oven without glass tray,
roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.
7 Make sure that the power supply cord is
undamaged and does not run under the oven or over any hot or sharp surface.

8 The socket must be readily accessible so that
it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.
9 Do not use the oven outdoors.
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Note
1 If you have any questions about the grounding
or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.
2 Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can
accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.
The wires in this cable main are colored in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow = EARTH
Blue = NEUTRAL
Brown = LIVE
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment.
When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:
1 Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
2 Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or
television.
3 Relocate the microwave oven with respect to
the receiver.
4 Move the microwave oven away from the
receiver.
5 Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet
so that microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.
When using electrical appliance basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
1 Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2 Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
3 Do not operate the oven when empty.

8 WARNING
heated in sealed containers since they are liable
: Liquid or other food must not be
to explode.
9 Microwave heating of beverage can result in
delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
10 Do not fry food in the oven. Hot oil can damage
oven parts and utensils and even result in skin burns.
11 Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode even after microwave heating
has ended.
12 Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes,
whole squashes, apples and chestnuts before
cooking.
13 The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars
should be stirred or shaken and the temperature should be checked before serving in order to avoid burns.
14 Cooking utensils may become hot because of
heat transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil.
15 Utensils should be checked to ensure that they
are suitable for use in microwave oven.
16 WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other
than a trained person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. It is not
recommended for use in an environment where excessive vibration could be experienced, especially on the caravan.
17 This product is a Group 2 Class B ISM
equipment. The definition of Group 2 which contains all ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) equipment in which radio-frequency energy is intentionally generated and/or used in the form of electromagnetic radiation for the treatment of material, and spark erosion equipment. For Class B equipment is equipment suitable for use in domestic establishments and in establishments directly connected to a low voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic purpose.
18 This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
19 Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
1 Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
2 Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can
smoke or ignite.
3 Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
4 Turn foods over once during microwaving to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken

and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
5 Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside
1 The ideal material for a microwave utensil is
transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the food.
2 Microwave can not penetrate metal, so
metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
3 Do not use recycled paper products when
microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause
sparks and/or fires.
4 Round /oval dishes rather than
square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
5 Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used
to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.

2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
3. The outside surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
4. Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaner.
5. Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the control panel, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.
6. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity condition. And it is normal.
7. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.
8. The roller ring and oven floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent.
