IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

WARNING-To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:

11. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

12. Read and follow the specific “PRECAUTIONS TO

AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY” found on page 3.

13. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to

properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS” found on page 6.

14. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with

the provided installation instructions.

15. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed

containers - for example, closed glass jars are able to explode and should not be heated in this oven.

16. Use this appliance only for its intended use as

described in this manual. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

17. As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary

when used by children.

18. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged

cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been damaged or dropped.

19. This appliance should be serviced only by qualified

service personnel.

Contact nearest authorized service facility for

examination, repair or adjustment.

10. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.

11. Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water — for example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

15. Either.

a) When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that

comes together on closing the door, use only mild, non-abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth., or

b) See door surface cleaning instructions on page 30.

16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance

when paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags

before placing bag in oven.

If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

d) Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not

leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

17. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

a) Do not overheat the liquid. b) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through

heating it.

c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow

necks.

d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the

microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

e) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other

utensil into the container.

18. Do not use this microwave oven to heat corrosive chemicals (for example, sulfides and chlorides). Vapors from such corrosive chemicals may interact with the contact and springs of the safety interlock switches thereby rendering them inoperable.

19. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.

20. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and fire.

21. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.

22. Under-cabinet and wall-mounted appliances:

1) Do not mount over a sink.

2) Do not store anything directly on top of the appliance surface when the appliance is in operation.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT

WARNING: This equipment generates and uses ISM frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type-tested and found to comply with limits for an ISM Equipment pursuant to part 18 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the followings.

• Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.

• Relocate the Microwave oven with respect to the receiver.

• Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.

• Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.

THE MANUFACTURER is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATION to this microwave oven. It is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, the grounding plug reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING:

Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either

1) If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding

plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance, or

2) Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or

serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.

WARNING:

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

1. Examine the oven after unpacking. Check for damage such as a misaligned door, broken door or dent in the cavity. If any damage is visible, DO NOT INSTALL, and notify your dealer immediately.

2. Level, flat location. Install the microwave oven on a level, flat surface.

3. Ventilation. Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat and eventually cause a

failure.

For proper ventilation, allow 4 inches of space between oven top, sides, rear and adjacent surfaces.

4. Away from radio and TV sets. Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is located close to a TV, radio, antenna,

feeder, etc.

Place the oven as far from them as possible.

5. Away from heating appliances and water taps. Keep the oven away from heat, steam or splashing liquids. These things can adversely affect oven wiring and

contacts.

6. Power supply.

• Check your local power source. This microwave oven requires a current of approximately 13 amperes, 120Volts, 60Hz and a grounded outlet.

1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of the user becoming entangled in or tripping over

a longer cord.

2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

3. If a long cord or extension cord is used:

• The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the oven.

• The extension cord must be a grounding type 3-wire cord.

• The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape the table top or counter where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

7. The minimum height of free space necessary above the top surface of the oven is about 4 inches.

OPERATION PROCEDURE

SETTING UP ALEXA ON YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

Your microwave oven can be controlled with Alexa using any Alexa-enabled device such as Echo or Echo Dot. To control your microwave oven using Alexa, you’ll need to set up your microwave and connect to Alexa using one of the below pairing methods.

Pairing Method 1: Zero-Touch Setup (ZTS)

In order to pair using this method, all pre-requisites listed below must be met. If not, go to pairing method #2 or #3.

 You opted-in to store your Wi-Fi credentials to your Amazon account in the past. This occurs when you

previously set up another Echo family device or a Works with Alexa device.

 The microwave must have been ordered from the same Amazon account and while ordering you must have

opted to link the device upon purchase. If microwave was purchased/received as a gift, or user de-selected this option upon purchase, the microwave will not be linked to end user's Amazon/Alexa account and ZTS will not be enabled. Please go to pairing method #2 or #3.

 The microwave would need to be within the Wi-Fi range of the user’s Wi-Fi network.  The microwave should be within the wireless range of an Echo family device, which was signed into using the

SENSOR OPERATIONS

The Sensor Cook categories are designed to detect the increasing humidity released by the food during the cooking process. The microwave oven sensor will automatically adjust the cooking time to the type and amount

food.

Using Sensor Settings

1. After the oven is plugged in, wait 2 minutes before using Sensor Cook.

2. Be sure the exterior of the cooking container and the interior of the oven are dry. Wipe off any moisture with a dry cloth or paper towel.

3. The oven works with foods at normal storage temperature.

4. More or less food than the quantity listed in the chart should be cooked following the guidelines in any microwave cookbook.

5. Do not open the oven door or press STOP/CLEAR pad until cooking time appears on the display window. The measurement of vapor will be interrupted. If this occurs, an error message "Er01" will appear. To continue cooking, press the STOP/ CLEAR pad and cook manually.

Covering Foods

Some foods work best when covered. Use the cover recommended in the Sensor Cook Chart for these foods.

When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the

food, the remainder of cooking time will appear.

The door may be opened when remaining cooking

time appears on the display. At this time, you may stir or season food, as desired.

6. Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with loose fitting lids or vented plastic wrap. Never use tight sealing plastic containers. They will prevent steam from escaping and this will mislead the sensor, usually causing the food to overcook.

7. Check food for temperature or doneness after cooking. If food is not completely cooked, enter additional cooking time manually. Do not use one of the Sensor Cook categories twice in succession on the same food portion. This may result in severely overcooked or burnt food.

3. Wax paper : Cover dish completely; fold excess wrap under dish to secure. If dish is wider than paper, overlap two pieces at least one inch to cover.

1. Casserole lid.

2. Plastic wrap : Use plastic wrap recommended for microwave cooking. Cover dish loosely; allow approximately 1/2 inch to remain uncovered to allow steam to escape. Plastic wrap should not touch food.

Be careful when removing any covering to allow steam to escape away from you.

Food Not Recommended

Some foods not recommended for use with Sensor cook. It is best to use Time Cook for these foods :

- Bread and pastry products

- Foods that must be reheated uncovered

- Foods that need to be stirred or rotated

- Foods calling for a dry look or crisp surface after reheating.

- Raw or uncooked foods.

- Frozen foods

CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

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.

Turn the oven off before cleaning.

Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food

spatters or spilled liquids adhere to 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.

The outside oven surface should be cleaned with

soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.

If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft,

dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on Control Panel.

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 malfunction of the unit.

It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray

for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.

The roller guide 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 guide may be washed in mild sudsy water.

ROLLER GUIDE

The ROLLER GUIDE and oven floor should be

cleaned frequently to prevent excessive noise.

The ROLLER GUIDE MUST ALWAYS be used for

cooking together with the Glass Tray.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

* Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without

any food in it. Is it damaged?

* A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not

damage the oven. However, it is not recommended.

* Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or

roller guide removed?

* A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must

always be used in the oven before cooking.

* Q : Can I open the door when the oven is

operating?

* A : The door can be opened anytime during the

cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.

* Q : What does "Er01" message mean?

* A : "Er01" means SENSOR ERROR and will appear

if you open the oven door or press STOP/CLEAR pad while cooking times is displayed. To continue cooking, press the STOP/CLEAR pad and cook manually.

* Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave

oven after cooking?

* A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven

is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven surface.

* Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it

operates while empty?

* A : Yes. Never run it empty.

* Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?

* A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop

due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing their shells.

* Q : What does “standing time” mean?

* A : “Standing time” means that food should be

removed from the oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.

* Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as

the microwave cooking guide says?

* A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure

you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven.

Variations in the size, shape and weights and

dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker.

* Q : Does microwave energy pass through the

viewing screen in the door?

* A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to

the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through.

* Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without

the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?

* A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you

will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable.

* Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either

direction?

* A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or

counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins.

* Q : Why is this standing time recommended after

the cooking operation has been completed?

* A : Standing time is very important.

With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food,

not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside.

* Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven?

How do I get the best results?

* A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following

manufacture’s guidelines. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY

General Use

Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads. Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door. This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven.

Food

Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken. Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven. Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire. Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires. Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven.

Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.

ARCING

If you see arcing, open the door and correct the problem.

Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out, stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating. Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn. Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper bag. Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers suggested popping time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle. Remove with caution and use pot holders.

Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).

• Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes, in the microwave.

• Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.

• Dirt or grease on waveguide cover.

MICROWAVING PRINCIPLES

Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in World War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources. Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.

HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD

Oven Cavity

Turntable

REFLECTION

Magnetron

Waveguide

In a microwave oven, electricity is converted into microwave by the MAGNETRON.

The microwaves bounce off the metal walls and the metal door screen.

TRANSMISSION

Then they pass through the cooking containers to be absorbed by the water molecules in the food, all foods contain water to a more or lesser extent.

ABSORPTION

Microwave Water Molecule Absorption Vibration

The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, and foods high in these will cook more quickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of 1½ - 2 inches(4-5cm) and as heat spreads through the food by conduction, just as in a traditional oven, the food cooks from the outside inwards.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

COOKING TECHNIQUES

STANDING TIME

Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes and cakes, require standing time(inside or outside of the oven) after cooking, to allow heat to finish conducting to cook the center completely. Wrap meat joints and jacket potatoes in aluminium foil while standing. Meat joints need approx. 10-15 minutes, jacket potatoes 5 minutes. Other foods such as plated meal, vegetables, fish etc require 2-5 minutes standing. After defrosting food, standing time should also be allowed. If food is not cooked after standing time, return to the oven and cook for additional time.

MOISTURE CONTENT

Many fresh foods e.g. vegetables and fruit, vary in their moisture content throughout the season, particularly jacket potatoes. For this reason cooking times may have to be adjusted. Dry ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dry out during storage so cooking times may differ.

DENSITY

Porous airy foods heat more quickly than dense heavy foods.

STARTING TEMPERATURE

The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Food from a fridge takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature.

LIQUIDS

All liquids must be stirred before and during heating. Water especially must be stirred before and during heating, to avoid eruption. Do not heat liquids that have previously been boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT.

TURNING & STIRRING

Some foods require stirring during cooking. Meat and poultry should be turned after half the cooking time.

ARRANGING

Individual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, should be placed on a dish so that the thicker parts are towards the outside.

QUANTITY

Small quantities cook faster than large quantities, also small meals will reheat more quickly than large portions.

CLING FILM

Cling film helps keep the food moist and the trapped steam assists in speeding up cooking times. Pierce before cooking to allow excess steam to escape. Always take care when removing cling film from a dish as the build-up of steam will be very hot.

SHAPE

Even shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better by microwave when in a round container rather than square.

SPACING

Foods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart. NEVER pile foods on top of each other.

PIERCING

The skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build up during cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin should be peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to escape. Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc, will all need to be pierced before cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS.

COVERING

Cover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish, vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry items.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

DEFROSTING GUIDE

▶ Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow

cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe.

▶ Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down.

Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down.

▶ The shape of the package alters the defrosting time.

Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block.

▶ After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the

food. Toy may wish to turn over, break apart, rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food.

▶ During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the

over. At this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the techniques listed below for optimum defrost results.

Then, close oven door, press the START pad to

complete defrosting.

▶ When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in

all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly, or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas.

Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool

water until defrosted

 Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey

breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops.

 Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops,

hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef.

 Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect

thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arcing, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door.

 Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portions

should be removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g).
