Read this user manual. It contains detailed information on the operation and recommended
maintenance of your new Microwave Oven. Once you have read the user manual, keep it
Handy for answers to your questions.
Important safety instructions
General
• Do not operate the oven empty in the microwave mode. Either food or water should
always be in the oven during operation to absorb microwave energy.
• Limit use of metal to those specific examples given in the utensils section of your
cookbook. Generally, metal should not be used during operation of microwave mode
alone. Metal utensils can be used for grill and combination cooking.
• DO not cook eggs in the shell. Pressure will build up inside the shell and it will
explode. Do not reheat cooked eggs unless they are scrambled or chopped. Puncture
the egg yolk before cooking eggs.
• Avoid canning in the microwave oven; harmful bacteria may not be destroyed.
• Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying.
• Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven in a special utensil designed for this
purpose, making sure the directions supplied by the utensil manufacturer are
followed carefully. Do not attempt to pop popcorn in a glass dish. Never pop popcorn
in a paper bag unless supplied by manufacturer as heat from the popcorn kernels
could cause the bag to ignite. Do not use paper towels, plates or other utensils made
from recycled paper in the microwave mode. Objects in recycled paper may contain
impurities that the paper ignites during cooking.
• Do not use paper towers, plates or other utensils made from recycled paper for
microwave cooking. Recycled paper products may contain impurities which could
cause the paper to ignite during microwave cooking. Recycled paper products may
contain impurities which could cause the paper to ignite during microwave cooking.
• Do not cover or Block any openings on the appliance.
• Do Not dry clothes, newspaper or other materials in the oven.

Cooking:
• Microwaves do not penetrate metal, therefore do not use any metal foil-lined
containers unless the are specifically recommended for microwave use.
• Be certain food and containers are completely in the oven before you attempt to
close the door. The oven will not operate if the door is not completely closed.
• Be careful when taking utensils or the tray out of the oven. The dishes will absorb the
heat from the cooking food and may be hot to touch.
• Because of rapid cooking times, pressure from steam can quickly build and cause
some Foods to burst or spatter. Most foods such as baked potatoes or fruits, should
be pierced to allow steam to escape. When cooking eggs always pierce the yolk.
Never cook more reheat eggs in their shells in the microwave.
• Do not use sealed containers or closed jars.
• Do not use your microwave oven for home bottles. Pressure could build up inside the
jars and burst them.
• Do not do deep fat fry in the microwave. It is difficult to control to temperature of the
fat, and could cause a fire hazard.
• Use only thermometers which are specifically designed for use in microwave ovens.
Conventional meat thermometers could burst and cause damage.
• Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven in a special utensil designed for this
purpose, making sure the directions supplied by the utensil manufacturer are
followed carefully. Do not attempt to pop popcorn in a glass dish. Never pop popcorn
in a paper bag unless supplied by manufacturer as heat from the popcorn kernels
could cause the bag to ignite.

Cooking utensils
T0 test if a dish is suitable for use in a microwave oven, place the empty dish in the oven and
stand half a glass of water in it. Turn the oven on for 15 or 30 seconds on HIGH. If the dish
becomes very hot to touch, it should not be used in the microwave oven.
Porcelain,
Porcelain, pottery , glazed earthenware and bone China are suitable but should not be used
if they are decorated with metal trim.
Glass
Oven to table or ceramic containers are usually suitable, again beware of metal trims. Table
glass can be used in the preparation of drinks, baked fruits and sweet. Be careful about
delicate glass that might be easily broken by sudden heating or cooking.
Plastic
Plastic is seldom heated by microwaves. Thermoplastics are ideal for microwave cooking as
they can tolerate very high temperatures. Some plastics may wrap and discolor due to the
heat of some foods, for those with a high sugar or fat content. Melamine or Urea plastic are
unsuitable for microwave cookery since they absorb heat.
Paper
Do not use paper or paper products unless they are specifically designed for microwave
usage.
Metal
Metal containers should not be used. Microwaves cannot penetrate through metal and
therefore the food will not cook. Metal foil may be used to shield food from overcooking or
over defrosting-however, ensure that it does not touch the walls of the oven.
Covering
Some Foods such as vegetables, should be cooked in covered glass dishes to speed up
cooking, to prevent spattering or to retain their there large water content. Be particularly
careful when removing covers from cooked dishes, as steam builds up and can cause nasty
burns to the hands and arms if caution is not exercised.
Browning Dishes
These are suitable for use in your microwave oven. The empty browning dish is placed in the
oven and preheated at maximum level according to the instructions provided with the
browning dish. The browning dish will get extremely hot so make sure oven gloves are worn.
It is important when using a browning dish and the glass turntable, to prevent heat stress
and damage to the glass. Pyrex may be used as an insulator.

Do not use the following cooking utensils
• Metal containers of dishes with metallic rims.
• Metal twist ties.
• Sealed jars or narrow necked bottles as they may shatter.
• Conventional thermometers.
• Foiled lined packages or cartons, such as the type used for take away foods or
freezer storage, as it shield foods from microwave energy and prevents
cooking.
Do not heat unopened food containers in the oven. Pressure may build up and cause the
container to burst. Baby’s bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered to be sealed
containers
Precautions to avoid possible exposure to microwave energy:
1. Do Not Attempt to operate this oven by circumventing the safety devices or
tampering with the interlocks in an attempt to use the oven with the door open. Open
door operation can result in exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to
defeat or tamper in any way with the safety interlocks of the door mechanism. Your
unit will not work with the door open. Were the safety features to be over ridden, this
could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
2. Do Not Place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or
cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
3. Do Not Operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven
door close properly and that there is no damage to the door (if it has been bent),
hinges and latches (broken or loosened), door seals and sealing surface.
4. The Oven Should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified
service personnel.

damaged. DO NOT operate if unit is damaged.
Placement of oven
Your microwave is most useful when placed near the center of your cooking area. You will
find it useful for making some steps in regular cooking easy as well as for basic recipe
preparation. Because microwaves use periods are short and user attendance is necessary,
you will want the oven close to your work area. It is best to have counter space beside the
microwave. You may often have more than one dish ready to go in and some already cooked
foods standing before serving.
Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface.
For proper operation ,the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 3 inches of space on both
sides of the oven.
1. DO NOT block vents on the cabinet. If they are blocked during operation, the oven
may overheat. IF the oven overheats, a thermal safety device will turn off the oven.
The oven will remain inoperable until it has cooled.
2. Do NOT place oven near a hot or damp surface, such as a gas or electric range.
3. This oven was manufactured for household use only, and should not be used for
commercial use.
4. This oven is not designed for built in use.

Care of your microwave oven
1. Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to the
oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very
dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
3. The outside oven surface should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to
the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the
ventilation openings.
4. Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not
use detergents, abrasives or spray or cleaners on the control panel, leave oven door
open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.
5. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft
cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity
conditions and in no way indicates malfunctions of the unit.
6. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in
warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.
7. The roller ring and oven cavity Floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive
noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent, water or
window cleaner and dry. The roller ring may be washed in mild sudsy water or
dishwasher. Cooking vapors collect during repeated use but in no way affect the
bottom surface or roller ring wheels. When removing the roller ring from cavity floor
for cleaning, be sure to replace in the proper position.
