new microwave oven:

 

Safety precautions

 

Accessories and cookware

 

Useful cooking tips

Inside the cover you will find a quick look-up guide explaining three basic cooking operations:

Cooking (microwave mode)

Defrosting

Adding an extra 30 seconds, if the dish is inadequately cooked or requires additional reheating

At the end of the booklet you will find illustrations of the oven, and more importantly the control panel, so that you can find the buttons more easily. The illustrations in the step-by-step procedures use two different symbols.

Important Note

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.

(a)Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with the door open or to tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert anything into the safety interlock holes.

(b)Do not place any object between the oven door and front face or allow food or cleaner residues to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and door sealing surfaces are kept clean by wiping after use first with a damp cloth and then with a soft dry cloth.

(c)Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

(1)Door (bent)

(2)Door hinges (broken or loose)

(3)door seals and sealing surfaces

(d)The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety precautions are taken.

Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens;

DO NOT use any metallic containers, Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings, Skewers, forks, etc.

Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags.

Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.

When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition;

Do not use your microwave oven to dry papers or clothes.

Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time. If normal times are allowed they may overheat and burn.

If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames;

Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container; To prevent this situation

ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off so that the temperature can equalize.

Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:

*Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.

*Cover with a clean, dry dressing.

*Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.

NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with narrow necks may also explode if overheated.

NEVER heat a babys bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated.

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

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;

Also do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers, nuts in shells, tomatoes etc.

The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed;

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation;

DO NOT cover the ventilation slots with cloths or paper. They may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the oven.

The oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.

ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven to avoid unintentional burn.

DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls until the oven be cooled down.

4

Safety Precautions (continued)

Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power cable away from heated surfaces.

Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.

Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the door.

How a Microwave Oven Works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.

You can use your microwave oven to:

Defrost

Reheat

Cook

Cooking Principle

1.The microwaves generated by the magnetron reflected at cavity and are distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2.The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a

depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3. Cooking times vary according to the container used and the properties of the food:

Quantity and density

Water content

Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)

As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

Even cooking of the food right to the centre

The same temperature throughout the food

6

What to Do if You are in Doubt or You have a Problem

Becoming familiar with a new appliance always takes a little time. If you have any of the problems listed below, try the solutions given. They may save you the time and inconvenience of an unnecessary service call.

The following are normal occurrences.
