Precautions in the Use of Microwave Ovens for Heating Food

INSPECTION FOR DAMAGE:

A microwave oven should only be used if an
inspection confirms all the following items:

1. The grille is not damaged or broken.

2. The door fits squarely and securely and opens
and closes smoothly.

3. The door hinges are in good condition.

4. The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are
neither buckled nor deformed.

5. The door seals are neither covered with food nor
have large burn marks.

PRECAUTIONS:

Microwave radiation from microwave ovens can
cause harmful effects if the following precautions are
not taken:

1. Never tamper with or deactivate the interlocking
devices on the door.

2. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object,
through a grille or between the door and the oven
while the oven is operating.

3. Never place saucepans, unopened cans or other
heavy metal objects in the oven.

4. Do not let other metallic articles, e.g. fast food foil
containers, touch the side of the oven.

5. Clean the oven cavity, the door and the seals with
water and a mild detergent at regular intervals.
Never use any form of abrasive cleaner that may
scratch or scour surfaces around the door.

6. Always use the oven with the trays or cookware
recommended by the manufacturer.

7. Never operate the oven without a load (i.e. an
absorbing material such as food or water) in the
oven cavity unless specifically allowed in the
manufacturer’s literature.

8. For horizontally hinged doors, never rest heavy
objects such as food containers on the door while
it is open.

9. Do not place sealed containers in the microwave
ovens.
Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a teat are
considered to be sealed containers.

10.The appliance is not intended for use by young

children or infirm persons without supervision.

11.Young children should be supervised to ensure that

they do not play with the appliance.

WARNING

a) The door seals and door seal areas should be

cleaned with a damp cloth.The appliance
should be inspected for damage to the door
seals and door seal areas and if these areas
are damaged the appliance should not be
operated until it has been repaired by a
service technician trained by the manufacturer.

b) It is dangerous for anyone other than a service

technician trained by the manufacturer to
perform repair service.

c) If the supply cord of this appliance is

damaged, it must be replaced by the special
cord available only from the manufacturer.

Earthing Instructions

This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, ear thing reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current.This microwave oven is
equipped with a cord having an earthing wire with
an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and earthed.
WARNING–––Improper use of the earthing plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.

Circuits

Your microwave ovens should be operated on a
separate circuits from other appliances. Failure to
do this may cause the power board fuse to blow,
and/or food to cook slower.
Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.

Fan Motor Operation

After using the oven, the fan may rotate to cool the
electric components.This is perfectly normal, and
you can take out the food from the oven while the
fan operates.

Placement of Oven

1. The oven must be placed on a flat, stable
surface, more than 85 cm above the floor.
For correct operation, the oven must have
sufficient air flow.Allow 30 cm of space on the

top of the oven, 10 cm at back and 5 cm on
both sides. If one side of the oven is placed
flush to a wall, the other side or top must not
be blocked. Do not remove feet.

(a) Do not block air vents.If they are blocked

during operation, the oven may overheat. If
the oven overheats, a thermal safety device
will turn the oven off.The oven will remain
inoperable unit it has cooled.

(b) Do not place oven near a hot or damp

surface such as a gas stove, electric range or

sink etc.

(c) Do not operate oven when room humidity is

too high.

2. The surfaces of top, back and left side of the
oven become hot during operation. Do not allow
the main cable to come in contact with these
surfaces of the oven.

3. This oven was manufactured for household use
only.

- En-3 -

General Use

1. For microwave cooking, only use utensils that are
suitable for use in microwave ovens.

2. In order to maintain high quality, do not operate
the oven when empty. The microwave energy will
reflect continuously throughout the oven if no
food or water is present to absorb energy.

3. If smoke is observed, press the STOP/RESET
Pad and leave the door closed in order to stifle
any flames. Disconnect the power cord, or shut
off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

4. Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in oven.They may catch on fire.

5. Do not use recycled paper products unless the
paper product is labelled as safe for microwave
oven use.Recycled paper products may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires
when used.

6. Do not use newspapers or paper bags for
cooking.

7. Do not hit or strike control panel. Damage to
controls may occur.

8. POT HOLDERS may be needed as heat from
food is transferred to the cooking container and
from the container to the Glass Tray. The Glass
Tray can be very hot after removing the cooking
container from the oven.

9. Do not store flammable materials next to, on top
of, or in the oven.It could be a fire hazard.

10.

Do not cook food directly on Glass Tray unless
indicated in recipes. (Food should be placed in a
suitable cooking utensil.)

11.

DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other
non-food products.DO NOT clean this oven with
any product that is labeled as containing
corrosive chemicals.The heating of corrosive

chemicals in this oven may cause microwave
radiation leaks.

12.

When using the COMBINATION mode, never
place any aluminum or metal container directly on
the Oven Rack.
Always insert a heat-proof, glass plate or dish
between the Oven Rack and the aluminum
container.This will prevent sparking that may
damage the oven.

13.

It is recommended not to use the Oven Rack
when cooking in the MICROWAVE mode only.

14.

If Glass Tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning
or placing in water.

15.

Look at the oven from time to time when food is
heated or cooked in disposal containers of
plastic, paper or other combustible materials, as
these types of containers ignite if overheated.

Food

1. Do not use your oven for home canning or the
heating of any closed jar.Pressure will build up
and the jar may explode. In addition, the
microwave oven cannot maintain the food at the
correct canning temperature. Improperly canned
food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.

2. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave
oven.

3. Do not cook eggs in their shell and whole hard
boiled eggs in microwave oven (unless otherwise
stated in cookbook). Pressure will build up and
the eggs will explode.

4. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole squash and
sausages are examples of foods with nonporous
skins.This type of food must be pierced before
cooking, to prevent bursting.

5. When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and
beverages in your microwave oven, overheating
the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling.This could result in a
sudden boil over the hot liquid.To prevent this
possibility the following steps should be taken:
a) Avoid using straight-sided containers with

narrow necks.
b) Do not overheat.
c) Stir the liquid before placing the container in

the oven and again halfway through cooking

time.
d) After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a

short time, stirring again before carefully

removing the container.

6. DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT

THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN.
To check the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry use a MICROWAVE THERMOMETER.

Alternatively, a conventional meat thermometer
may be used after the food is removed from the
oven.If undercooked, return meat or poultry to
the oven and cook for a few more minutes at the
recommended power level. It is important to
ensure that meat and poultry are thoroughly
cooked.

7. COOKING TIMES given in the cookbook are
APPROXIMATE. Factors that may affect cooking
time are preferred degree of moisture content,
starting temperature, altitude, volume, size, shape
of food and utensils used. As you become familiar
with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these
factors.

8. It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN
OVERCOOK foods. If food is undercooked, it
can always be returned to the oven for further
cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be
done. Always start with minimum cooking times
recommended.

9. Extreme care should be taken when cooking
popcorn in a microwave oven. Cook for minimum
time as recommended by manufacturer. Use the
directions suitable for the wattage of your
microwave oven. NEVER leave oven unattended
when popping popcorn.

10.

When reheating babies bottles always remove top
and teat. Liquid at the top of the bottle will be
much hotter than at the bottom and must be
shaken thoroughly before checking the temperature.
The lid must also be removed from babies food
jars, the contents must also be stirred or shaken
before the temperature is checked.

More/Less Pad before pressing Start Pad.

Press More Pad for more cooking with indication
“MORE +”
Press Less Pad for less cooking with indication

“LESS -”
If you are satisfied with the result of the Auto Sensor
program, you don’t have to use this pad.

4. Food less than 125 grams should be cooked by

micro power and time only, not by Sensor
Reheat/Cook.

5. When the remaining cooking time is over 60

minutes, the time will appear as hours and
minutes.

6. All food for Sensor Reheat/Cook should be taken

from their normal storage place.

7. Before using the Sensor Reheat/Cook feature

make sure Glass Tray in the oven is dry to assure
the best results.

8. Stand time or a power level can be programmed

after Sensor Reheat/Cook is set.

9. If the oven has previously been used on Grill,

Convection Bake or Combination, and it is too hot
to be used on an Auto Sensor Program, “HOT”
will appear in the display window. After the “HOT”
disappears, the Sensor Programs may be used.If
in a hurry, cook food manually with selecting the
correct Microwave power and cooking time
yourself.

1. Auto Sensor system works by detecting a build­up of steam on the sensor.All food cooked using
the Auto Sensor should be covered with a
securely fitted lid or plastic wrap.Do not pierce
holes in plastic wrap.As food is cooked in a
microwave oven, steam is produced. After the
burst of steam escapes from under the food
covering and is detected by SENSOR, a two­beep signal is heard and the oven automatically
calculates the remaining cooking time, which
counts down in the display window.

2. When a Sensor Reheat/Cook Category is
selected, the oven door should not be opened for
longer than one minutes. Opening the door may
cause inaccurate cooking results.The oven door
may be opened to stir, turn or add food when the
cooking time begins to count down in the display
window.

3. The room air temperature surrounding the oven
should not be above 35˚C when using the Sensor
Reheat/Cook feature.

Before Requesting Service ––––––––––––––––––––––––––

ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL:

The oven causes interference
with my TV.

Steam accumulates on the
oven door and warm air
comes from the oven vents.

I accidentally operate my
microwave oven without any
food in it.

There are humming and
clicking noises from my oven
when I cook by Combination.

The oven has an odor and
generates smoke when using
the Convection Bake,
Combination and Grill function.

Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the
microwave oven.This interference is similar to the interference caused by
small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, hair dryers, etc. It does not
indicate a problem with your oven.

During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of
the steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which
circulates in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler
surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal.

Operating the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven.
However, we do not recommend this to be done.

These noises occur as the oven automatically switches from microwave
power to Convection, to create the Combination setting.This is normal.

It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after cooking
by Combination or Grill. Any fat and grease that builds up on the roof and
walls of the oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned.

Oven will not turn on.

The oven is not plugged in
securely.

Remove plug from outlet, wait 10
seconds and re-insert.

Circuit breaker or fuse is tripped
or blown.

Reset circuit breaker or replace
fuse.

There is a problem with the outlet. Plug another appliance into the

outlet to check if the outlet is
working.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE REMEDY

Oven will not start cooking.

The door is not closed completely. Close the oven door securely.
Start Pad was not pressed after

programming.

Press Start Pad.

Another program has already
been entered into the oven.

Press Stop/Reset Pad to cancel
the previous program and program
again.

The program has not been
entered correctly.

Program again according to the
Operating Instructions.

Stop/Reset Pad has been
pressed accidentally.

Program oven again.

The words “DEMO MODE”*
appear on the screen.

Clock Pad has been pressed
three times.

Deactivate mode by pressing
Clock Pad three times.

When the oven is turning on,
there is noise coming from
Glass Tray .

The roller ring and oven bottom
are dirty.

Clean these parts according to
Care of Your Microwave Oven (See
next page).

* DEMO MODE is designed for retail store display.

Cooking and other functions will not operate during demo mode.

If it seems there is a problem with the oven, contact an authorized Service Center.

1. Tur n the oven off and remove the power plug
from the wall socket before cleaning.

2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food
splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. Non caustic oven
cleaners may be used if the oven gets very dirty.
The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.

Note: Do not use oven cleaners on the top of

the oven.

3. The outside oven 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. Do not allow the Control Panel to become wet.
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use
detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the
Control Panel.
When cleaning the Control Panel, leave oven
door open to prevent oven from accidentally
turning on. After cleaning press STOP/RESET
Pad to clear display window.

5. 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 conditions and in
no way indicates malfunction of the unit.

6. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass
tray for cleaning.Wash the tray in warm sudsy
water or in a dishwasher. If grease accumulates,
clean with a nonabrasive nylon mesh scouring
pad and non caustic oven cleaners.

7. The roller ring and oven cavity floor should be
cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with
mild detergent, water or window cleaner and dry.
The roller ring may be washed in mild sudsy
water or dish washer. Cooking vapors collect
during repeated use but in no way affect the
bottom surface or roller ring wheels.When
removing the roller ring from cavity floor for
cleaning, be sure to replace in the proper
position.

8. When using the GRILL or cooking in the
COMBINATION mode, some foods may inevitably
splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is
not cleaned occasionally to eliminate this grease,
it can accumulate and cause the oven to
“SMOKE” during use.To avoid smoking, run the
oven without food and accessories on Convection
Bake 250˚C for 20 minutes.

9. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven
light, please consult a dealer to have it replaced.
