Safety Instructions

Precautions to be taken when using Microwave Ovens for Heating Foodstuffs

Inspection for Damage:

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

1. The grille is not damaged or broken.

2. The door ﬁts squarely and securely and opens and

English

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 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 oven. 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.

Important Instructions

WARNING—To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, ﬁre, injury to persons or excessive microwave energy:

1. Read all instructions before using microwave oven.

2. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers - (for example, closed glass jars and sealed baby bottles with teat) may explode and should not be heated in microwave oven. Refer to cookbook for more details.

3. Use this microwave oven only for its intended use as described in this manual.

4. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.

5. Do not operate this microwave oven, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped.

6. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.

7. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

8. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

10. To reduce the risk of ﬁre in the oven cavity: (a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend microwave

oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

(b) Remove wire twist-ties from bags before placing bag

in oven.

door closed, turn oven off at the wall switch, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

11. Do not remove outer panel from oven.

Earthing Instructions

This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This microwave oven is equipped 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 electric shock.

Fan Motor Operation after Cooking

After using this oven (such as Grill, Combination or 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.

Practical Hints:

Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during COMBINATION, GRILL and OVEN. Use care when opening or closing door and when inserting or removing food and accessories.

Circuits

Your microwave ovens should be operated on a separate circuit from other appliances. The voltage used must be the same as speciﬁed on this microwave oven. 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.

Installation and General Instructions

General Use

1. 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.

2. If smoke is observed, press the Stop/Reset Pad and leave door closed. Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

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

4. Do not use recycled paper products, as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or ﬁres when used.

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

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

7. 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.

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

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

10. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other nonfood 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.

11. If glass tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning or placing in water.

12. When using the COMBINATION mode, never place any aluminum or metal container directly on the wire rack. Always insert a heat-proof, glass plate or dish between the wire rack and the aluminum container.

This will prevent sparking that may damage the oven.

13. It is recommended not to use the wire rack when cooking in the MICROWAVE mode only.

Placement of the Oven

1. The oven must be placed on a ﬂat, stable surface and it shall not be placed in a cabinet. For correct operation, the oven must have sufﬁcient air ﬂow. Allow 25 cm of space on the top of the oven, 10 cm at back and 10 cm on left side. 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.

25 cm

10 cm

Counter-top

(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 until it has cooled.

10 cm

- Eng-5 -

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

as a gas stove, electric range or sink etc.

2. This oven was manufactured for household use only.

English

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 boil eggs in their shell (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 TIME given in the cookbook is 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 time 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 heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of ignition.

11. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
