Safety Precautions
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, 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.

Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.
Tip: Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times.
4. DO NOT
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the

Safety Precautions
Installing Your Microwave oven
• A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.
• To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic
spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after
heating.
Reason: During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed; this
• In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:
• NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at

How a Microwave Oven Works
Your New Microwave oven
Cooking Principle
1.
The microwaves generated by the magnetron 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 recipient 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
Checking Parts
Unpack your microwave oven and check to make sure that you have all the parts
shown here. If any part is missing or broken, call your dealer.
