Important when using your microwave oven
Do not heat, store or use flammable materials in or near the oven. Fumes can
create a fire hazard or explosion.
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual.
Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapours in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat or cook food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
Do not over-cook food. Fire could result.
Do not use your microwave oven for drying
textiles, paper, spices, herbs, wood, flowers, fruit or other combustible materials. Fire could result.
Do not leave the oven unattended, especially when using paper, plastic or other combustible materials in the cooking process. Paper can char or burn, and some plastics can melt if used when heating foods. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
Do not use your microwave oven for cooking or reheating whole eggs with or without shell.
Do not use your microwave oven for heating food or liquids in airtight sealed containers. The pressure increases and may cause damage when opening or may explode.
Some foods which has a low water content e.g. oil, chocolate and some pastries with sweet fillings, must be heated carefully.
Do not use your microwave oven for deep frying, because you cannot control the oil temperature.
One of the major advantages of microwave ovens is the short cooking time. Therefore, do not exceed recommended times for cooking or re-heating food.
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
If material inside the oven should ignite,
keep oven door closed, turn the oven off and disconnect, the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
When heating liquids, e.g. beverages or water in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:
1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
2. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and let the teaspoon remain in the container.
3. After heating, allow to stand for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container from the oven.
Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol.
After heating baby food or liquids in a baby bottle, always stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided. Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!
Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but the hot food does. Use oven mitts when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking to prevent burns.

Working with microwaves
Microwaves - what are they?
Microwaves are like TV waves or light
waves. You cannot see them, but you can see their effect. Just like ordinary daylight passes through glass, clear plastic and air, the microwaves have the ability to go through materials like paper, glass, porcelain, plastic and air. These materials do not contain water or metal and will consequently not be heated up by the microwaves. The microwaves are reflected by metal in the same way as light is reflected by a mirror.
Microwaves are absorbed by water, oil and fat. The water, oil and fat molecules are exited by microwaves and rub against each other, just like when you rub your hands quickly against each other and heat is produced. The speed of rubbing determines the temperature. Microwave energy is not hot. It simply causes the food to make its own heat.
P 3 - P2
- To be used when simmering stews.
Defrost
- To be used for manual defrosting.
P 1
- To be used for softening butter, cheese and ice cream, or for defrosting sensitive food.
Food always contains water. When we heat the food with microwaves the water molecules in the food are excited and
heat is produced. The microwaves reach
into the food and at the same time enters the food from all directions.
That’s why the food is heated so rapidly. You save time when cooking with a microwave oven. You
usually also save energy, especially when cooking small amounts of food. If you boil fish in a sauce-pan with water, the electrical energy must first heat the hot-plate. The heat must transfer from the hot-plate to the sauce-pan and from the sauce-pan to the water which then will heat the fish. In a microwave oven the electrical energy is converted to microwaves and almost all of the microwave energy is then converted to heat inside the food
Microwave heating
When we heat food with infra waves (Grill or hot air), in a normal oven, the heat is applied on the surface of the food and then conducts (transfers) to the centre of the food. Food has a rather poor ability to conduct heat and it therefore takes a long time to heat the food.
Grill heating
Cook time
20 - 25 min.
Cook time

Which utensils can be used in the oven?
Utensils and cooking containers used in a microwave oven should be of a material that allows microwaves to pass freely through them. Generally this means that you should cook in either (paper), plastic, glass or ceramic.
Utensils made of china and ceramic are excellent to use in
your microwave oven. Most types of glass are also very good.
Lead crystal glass can crack and should therefore, not be used.
Coloured glass or glass with decorations shall be avoided since
metal e.g. gold, might be part of the decoration and such
decorations will be damaged.
Plastics and paper can also be used, provided they can
withstand the temperature of the heated food. For cooking only
use plastics, which will withstand a temperature of over 1200 C
Some plastic materials, e.g. melamine, will be heated by the
microwaves, and be damaged.
Round or oval shapes give the most even cooking. Square or
rectangular containers may over-cook foods in the corners
because more energy is absorbed there. Shallow containers
give more even cooking results.

1. Without metal parts or metal trims.
2. Some plastics are heat-proof only to certain temperatures.
3. It is possible to use aluminium foil to shield delicate areas of food (this prevents over-cooking).
Microwave cooking
To find out if a certain container is suitable, the following simple test can be made:
Place the empty container and a glass of water inside the microwave oven. The water is needed because the oven must not be operated empty or with empty containers. Let the oven work on full power for one minute. A suitable container will only be lukewarm.
Yes (1) Yes Yes (1) Yes Yes Yes (2) Yes (2) Yes (3)
No
Yes
Metal containers, e.g. saucepans or frying pans should not be used in microwave ovens. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. They will bounce off any metal object in the oven just as they bounce off the metal walls of the oven and cause “arcing”, a phenomenon that resembles lightning. Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used, but only to shield the areas that would over-cook (e.g. for covering chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails) but the foil must not touch the side of the oven as arcing (damage) may occur.
Aluminium foil containers and microwaves
It is now possible to use disposable aluminium foil containers
in this new generation of microwave ovens, providing these simple rules are followed:
* Always remove foil-laminated fibre board lid from the
container before heating, otherwise oven damage can occur. * Only undamaged foil containers may be used. * Aluminium foil containers with a height exceeding 3 cm
should be avoided and the container must be at leas t
full.
* There must be a minimum of 1 cm between the aluminium
foil container and the walls of the oven, to avoid sparking.
2/3
CAUTION!
There are a number of accessories avaliable on the market
Before you buy, make sure they are suitable for microwave use. When you put food in the microwave oven, make sure that food, food supports or covering do not come in direct contact with any of the internal walls or the ceiling of the cavity.
* Aluminium foil containers should always be used singly in a
microwave oven, and placed on the glass turn-table provided.
* Follow the instructions provided by the food producer to
ensure thorough heating of the food product throughout. If you are using a foil container for self produced foods they
* may take longer to heat than when using plastic, glass,
porcelain or paper containers. Always ensure the food is
piping hot (minimum 720 C) before serving. A useful tip is to place the foil container in a heat resisting glass or plastic bowl, adding some hot water (not more than 1 cm deep) to provide heating for the foil container base. Stir if appropriate or let the food stand for 2-3 minutes after heating, to assist heat distribution within the container.

Points to remember when defrosting manually
* The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow
rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a deep block.
* Separate pieces as they begin to defrost; free-flow slices
defrost more easily.
* Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to
become warm. Wooden toothpicks may be used to hold the foil in place.
* When defrosting, it is better to under-thaw the food slightly
and allow the process to finish during the standing time.
The amount of food
The more food you want to prepare the longer it takes. A rule of thumb is that double amount of food requires almost double the time. If one potato takes four minutes to cook, approximately seven minutes are required to cook two potatoes.
Moisture content:
Because microwaves are attracted to moisture, cooking time will vary according to water content. Naturally moist foods such as vegetables, fish and poultry will cook quickly and evenly;
drier foods such as rice or dried beans require added moisture for microwave cooking.
Condensation:
Humidity and moisture in foods will sometimes cause
condensation on the walls of the oven or inside the door. This
is normal with cooking. Generally, covered foods will cause
less condensation than uncovered foods.
Hints
Sugar:
When cooking foods with a high sugar or fat content, such as Christmas pudding, mince pies and fruit cake follow the recommended cooking instructions carefully. Exceeding the recommended cooking times may result in burning of the food and damage to the oven.
Releasing pressure in foods
Several foods are tightly covered by a skin or membrane. These foods should be pricked with a fork or cocktail stick to relieve the pressure and to prevent bursting, as steam builds-up within them during cooking. This applies to jacket potatoes, potatoes, chicken livers, sausages, egg yolks and some fruits.
Standing time
Always allow the food to stand for some time after using the oven. Standing time after defrosting, cooking/reheating always improves the result since the temperature will then be evenly distributed through out the food. In a microwave oven foods continue to cook even when the microwave energy is turned off. They are no longer cooked by microwaves, but they are still being cooked by the conduction of the high residual heat to the centre of the food. The length of the standing time depends on the volume and density of the food. Sometimes it can be as short as the time it takes you to remove the food from the oven and take it to the serving table. However, with larger, denser foods, the standing time may be as long as 10 minutes. The food will finish cooking during this time.
Arranging Food
The best results are achieved if the food is evenly distributed on the plate. This is done in several ways in microwave cooking to give more even cooking results.
If you are cooking several items of the same
food such as jacket potatoes, place them in a
ring pattern for uniform cooking. When cooking foods of uneven shapes or
thickness, place the smaller or thinner area of the food towards the centre of the dish where it will be heated last.
Uneven foods such as fish should be
arranged in the oven with the tails to the
centre. If you are saving a meal in the refrigerator or
“plating” a meal for reheating, arrange the thicker, denser foods to the outside of the plate and the thinner or less dense foods in the middle.
Place thin slices of meat on top of each other or interlace them. Thicker slices such as meat loaf and sausages have to be placed close to each other.
Gravy or sauce should be reheated in a separate container.
Choose a tall, narrow container rather than a low and wide container. When reheating gravy, sauce or soup, do not fill the container more than 2/3
When you cook or reheat whole fish, score the skin - this prevents cracking.
Shield the tail and head with small pieces of foil to prevent over-cooking but ensure the foil does not touch the sides of the oven.
Composition of the food
Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated faster than food containing a lot of water. Fat and sugar will also reach a higher temperature than water in the cooking process. The more dense the food, the longer it takes to heat. “Very dense” food like meat takes longer time to reheat than lighter, more porous food like bread.
Size and shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook faster than larger pieces and uniform pieces of food cook more evenly than irregularly shaped foods. To ensure even cooking, cut all pieces of food into similar sizes and shapes.
Stirring, turning of foods during cooking
Stirring and turning of foods are techniques used in conventional as well as in microwave cooking to distribute the heat quickly to the centre of the dish and avoids over-cooking at the outer edges of the food. turning foods is especially important here because it allows for more even cooking. As in conventional cooking, foods such as roasts need to be elevated so they are not allowed to steam in their own juices.

Maintenance
Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required. It must be carried out with the microwave oven disconnected.
Do not use metal scouring pads on the inside of the oven cavity. They will scratch the surface.
At regular intervals, especially if spillovers have occurred, remove the turn-table and wipe clean the base of the oven. This oven is designed to operate with the turn-table in place.
Do not operate the microwave oven when the turn-table is removed for cleaning.
Use a mild detergent, water and a soft cloth to clean the interior surfaces front and rear of the door and the door opening.
Do not allow grease or food particles to build up around the door.
Service
For stubborn soil, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the soil.
Odours inside the oven can be eliminated by placing a cup of water with lemon juice added into the oven and boiling the mixture.
Important:
The door seals and the door seal areas must be regularly inspected for damage. If these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a service technician trained by the manufacturer.
WARNING!
Abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty wash cloths,
etc can damage the control panel, and the interior and exterior oven surfaces. Use a sponge with a mild detergent or paper towel with spry glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to paper towel.
Do not spray directly on the oven
If the oven does not work, do not make a service call until
youhave made the following checks:
* The Turn-table and turn-table support is in place. * The Plug is properly inserted in the wall socket. * The Door is properly closed. * Check your Fuses and make sure that there is power
available.
* Wait for ten minutes and then try to operate the oven once
more.
This is to avoid unnecessary calls for which you will be charged. When calling for Service, please give the serial number and type number of the oven (see Service label).
Important:
If the mains cord needs replacing it should be replaced by the original mains cord which is available via our service organisation. The mains cord must only be replaced by a trained service technician.
WARNING!
Service only to be carried out by a service technician
trained by the manufacture. It is dangerous for anyone other than a service technician trained by the manufacture to perform repair service.
