IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

To avoid the danger of fire.

The microwave oven should not be left unattended during operation. Power levels that are too high, or cooking times that are too long, may overheat foods resulting in a fire.

The electrical outlet must be readily accessible so that the unit can be unplugged easily in an emergency. The AC power supply must be 230 V, 50 Hz, with a minimum 10 A distribution line fuse, or a minimum 10 A distribution circuit breaker. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. Do not store or use the oven outdoors.

If food being heated begins to smoke, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Turn off and unplug the ove n an d wait un t i l the fo o d has stopped smoking. Opening the door while food is smoking may cause a fire.

Only use microwave-safe containers and utensils. See Page 10.

Do not leave the oven unattended when using disposable plastic, paper or other combustible food containers.

Clean th e wavegui d e cover, th e ov en cavity, the turntable and turntable support after use. These must be dry and free from grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire.

Do not place flammable materials near the oven or ventilation openings. Do not block the ventilation openings. Remove all metallic seals, wire twists, etc., from food and food packages. Arcing on metallic surfaces may cause a fire. Do not use the microwave oven to heat oil for deep frying. The temperature cannot be controlled and the oil may catch fire. To make popcorn , onl y use spe c ial microwa v e popcorn makers. Do not store food or any other items inside the oven. Check the settings after you start the oven to ensure the oven is operating as desired. See the corresponding hints in the operation manual and the cookery book section.

To avoid the possibility of injury

WARNING:

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged or

alfunctioning. Check the following before use:

m a)The door; make sure the door closes properly and

ensure it is not misaligned or warped.

b)The hinges and door safety latches; check to make

sure they are not broken or loose.

c) The door seals and sealing surfaces; ensure that

they have not been damaged.

d)Inside the oven cavity or on the door; make sure

there are no dents.

e)The power supply cord and plug; ensure that they

are not damaged.

Never adjust , repair or modify the oven yourself. It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

Do not operate the oven with the door open or alter the door safety latches in any way. Do not operate the oven if there is an object between the door seals and sealing surfaces.

Do not allow grease or dirt to build up on the door seals and adjacent parts. Follow the instructions for “Care & Cleaning” on page

23. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to a deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appli ance and possib ly resu lt in a hazardous situation.

Individuals with PACEMAKERS should check with their doctor or the manufacturer of the pacemaker for precautions regarding microwave ovens.

To avoid the possibility of electric shock

Under no circumstances should you remove the outer cabinet. Never spill or insert any objects into the door lock openings or ventilation openings. In the event of a spill, turn off and unplug the oven immediately and call an authorised ELECTROLUX service agent. Do not immerse the power supply cord or plug in water or any other liquid. Do not allow the power supply cord to run over any hot or sharp surfaces, such as the hot air vent area at the top rear of the oven. Do not attempt to replace the oven lamp yourself or allow anyone who is not authorised by ELECTROLUX to do so. If the oven lamp fails, please consult your dealer or an authorised ELECTROLUX service agent.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

If th e powe r suppl y cord of th i s app l i a n ce is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cord. Th e ex change mus t be mad e by an auth orised ELECTROLUX service agent.

To avoid the possibility of explosion and sudden boiling:

WARNING: Liquids and other foods must

not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.

Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off. Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a widemouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.

Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.

To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible scalding:

1. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.

2. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil

into the liquid whilst reheating.

3. Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven

at the end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.

Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven.

Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.

To avoid the possibility of burns

Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns. Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns.

To avoid burns, always test food temperature and stir before serving and pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children or the elderly.

Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature. Always stand back from the oven door when opening it to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat. Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release steam and avoid burns. Keep children away from the door to prevent them burning themselves.

To avoid misuse by children

WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or me ntal capab ilitie s, or la ck of ex perien ce and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Do not lean or swing on the oven door. Do not play with the oven or use it as a toy. Ch i ldren should be taugh t all impo r t ant safety instructions: use of pot holders, careful removal of food coverings; paying special attention to packaging (e.g. self-heating materials) designed to make food crisp, as they may be extra hot.

Other warnings

Never modify the oven in any way. This oven is for home food preparation only and may only be used for cooking food. It is not suitable for commercial or laboratory use.

To promote trouble-free use of your oven and avoid damage.

Never operate the oven when it is empty. When using a browning dish or self-heating material, always place a heat-resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to the turntable and turntable support due to heat stress.

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

Microwaves are energy waves, similar to those used for TV and radio signals. Electrical energy is converted into microwave energy, which is directed into the oven cavity via a waveguide. To prevent food and grease entering the waveguide it is protected by the waveguide cover. Microwaves cannot pass through metal, because of this the oven cavity is made of metal and there is a fine metal mesh on the door. During cooking the microwaves bounce off the sides of the oven cavity at random. Microwaves will pass through certain materials, such as glass and plastic, to heat the food. (See ‘Microwave safe cookware’ on page 10.) To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware. Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblong ones, as the food in the corners tends to overcook.

A variety of cookware can be used as listed on page

10. Water, sugar and fat in food absorb microwaves which cause them to vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way your hands get warm when you rub them together. The outer areas of the food are heated by the microwave energy, then the heat moves to the centre by conduction, as it does in conventional cooking. It is important to turn, rearrange or stir food to ensure even heating. Once cooking is complete, the oven automatically stops producing microwaves. Standing time is necessary after cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse equally throughout the food. Microwaves cook food faster than conventional cooking. It is therefore essential that certain techniques are followed to ensure good results. Many of the following techniques are similar to those used in conventional cooking.

FOOD CHARACTERISTICS

Composition Foods high in fat or sugar (e.g. Christmas pudding, mince pies) require less heating time. Care should

be taken as overheating can lead to fire.

Density Food density will affect the amount of cooking time needed. Light porous foods, such as cakes or

bread, cook more quickly than heavy, dense foods, such as roasts and casseroles.

Quantity The cooking time must be increased as the amount of food placed in the oven increases. E.g. Four

potatoes will take longer to cook than two.

Size Small foods and small pieces cook faster than large ones, as microwaves can penetrate from all sides

to the centre. For even cooking make all the pieces the same size.

Shape Foods which are irregular in shape, such as chicken breasts or drumsticks, take longer to cook in the

thicker parts. Round shapes cook more evenly than square shapes when microwave cooking.

Temperature The initial temperature of food affects the amount of cooking time needed. Chilled foods will take of food longer to cook than food at room temperature. Cut into foods with fillings, e.g. jam doughnuts, to

release heat or steam.

ENGLISH

COOKING TECHNIQUES

Arrange Place the thickest parts of food towards the outside of the dish. E.g. Chicken drumsticks. Cover Use vented microwave cling film or a suitable lid. Pierce Foods with a shell, skin or membrane must be pierced in several places before cooking or reheating as

steam will build up and may cause food to explode, e.g. Potatoes, Fish, Chicken, Sausages. Important: Eggs should not be heated using microwave power as they may explode, even after cooking has ended, e.g. poached, fried, hard boiled.

Stir, turn and For even cooking it is essential to stir, turn and rearrange food during cooking. Always stir and rearrange rearrange from the outside towards the centre.

Stand Standing time is necessary after cooking to enable the heat to disperse equally throughout the food. Shield Some areas of food being defrosted may become warm. Warm areas can be shielded with small

pieces of foil, which reflect microwaves, e.g. legs and wings on a chicken.

MICROWAVE COOKING ADVICE

USING A FOOD THERMOMETER TO DETERMINE COOKING TIME

Once cooked, every drink and every foodstuff has a certain internal temperature at which the cooking process can be switched off and the food will be

MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS

Your oven has 5 power levels. To choose the power level for cooking, follow the advice given in the recipe section. Generally the following recommendations apply:

800 W used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. soup, casseroles, canned food, hot beverages, vegetables, fish, etc.

560 W used for longer cooking of dense foods such as roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals, also for sensitive dishes such as cheese sauce and sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the sauce will not boil over and food will cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.

To set the power, touch the MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL button until the desired level is displayed. If MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL button is touched once, will be displayed. If you miss your desired level, continue touching the MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL button until you reach the level again.

If the level is not selected, the level 800 W is automatically set.

400 W for dense foods which require a long cooking

time when cooked conventionally, eg. beef dishes, it is advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.

240 W to defrost, select this power setting, to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg custard.

80 W For gentle defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or pastry.

W = WATT

ADAPTING RECIPES FOR THE MICROWAVE OVEN

If you would like to adapt your favourite recipes for the microwave, you should take note of the following: Shorten cooking times by a third to a half. Follow the example of the recipes in this book. Foods which have a high moisture content such as meat, fish, poultry, vegetables, fruit, stews and soups can be prepared in your microwave without any difficulty. Foods which have little moisture, such as

platters of food, should have the surface moistened prior to heating or cooking. The amount of liquid to be added to raw foods, which are to be braised, should be reduced to about two thirds of the quantity in the original recipe. If necessary, add more liquid during cooking. The amount of fat to be added can be reduced considerably. A small amount of butter, margarine or oil is sufficient to flavour food. For this reason your microwave is excellent for preparing low-fat foods as part of a diet.

CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND R E MOVE A NY F O OD DE P OSIT S . Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to a deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

Oven exterior

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Oven controls

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the oven controls. Care should be taken when cleaning the oven control. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean. Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.

Oven Interior

1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a

soft damp cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not

penetrate the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.

3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven

interior.

Turntable and turntable support

Remove the turntable and turntable support from the oven. Wash the turntable and turntable support in mild soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth. Both the turntable and the turntable support are dishwasher safe.

Door

To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and sealing surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used.
