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 with first a damp cloth and then a final wipe 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, door seals and sealing surfaces (2) Door hinges (broken or loose) (3) Power cable
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly
qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

How a Microwave Oven Works

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy
EN
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
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.
Condensation inside the oven
Air flow around the door and outer casing
Light reflection around the door and outer casing
Steam escaping from around the door or vents
The food is not cooked at all
Have you set the timer correctly and pressed the
Is the door closed?
Have you overloaded the electric circuit and caused a fuse to blow or a breaker to be triggered.
The food is either overcooked or undercooked
Was the appropriate cooking length set for the type of food?
Was an appropriate power level chosen?
Sparking and cracking occur inside the oven (arcing)
Have you used a dish with metal trimmings?
Have you left a fork or other metal utensil inside the oven?
Is aluminium foil too close to the inside walls?
The oven causes interference with radios or televisions
Slight interference may be observed on televisions or radios when the oven is operating. This is normal.
* Solution: Install the oven away from televisions, radios and aerials.
If interference is detected by the oven’s microprocessor, the display may be reset.
* Solution: Disconnect the power plug and reconnect it. Reset the time.
