PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL

This appliance is designed for domestic use only!

The appliance should not be operated without food in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.

The ventilation openings on the oven must not be covered. Blocking the air intake or exhaust vents may cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results.

If you practice operating the oven, put a glass of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged.

Do not store or use this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar. Do not use the cavity for any storage purposes.

Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven. Do not use your microwave oven for deep-frying, because the oil temperature cannot be controlled.

Use hot pads or oven mitts to prevent burns, when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking.

LIQUIDS

e.g. beverages or water. Overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot iquid.

To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:

1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

2. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and let the teaspoon remain in the container.

3. After heating, allow standing for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container from the oven.

CAREFUL

After heating baby food or liquids in a baby bottle or in a baby food jar, always stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is

evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.

Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol. Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!

ACCESSORIES

GENERAL

There are a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use.

Ensure that the utensils you use are oven proof and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking. When you put food and accessories in the microwave oven, ensure that they do not come in contact with the

interior of the oven. This is especially important with accessories made of metal or metal parts.

If accessories containing metal comes in contact with the oven interior, while the oven is in operation, sparking can occur and the oven could be damaged.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING

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 use metal scouring pads, abrasive cleansers, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths, etc. which can damage the control panel, and the interior and exterior oven surfaces. Use a

cloth with a mild detergent or a paper towel with

spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel. At regular intervals, especially if spill overs have occurred, remove the

turntable, the Turntable Support and wipe the base of the oven clean.

Use a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent to clean the interior surfaces,

front and rear of the door and the door opening.

Do not use steam cleaning appliances when cleaning your microwave oven. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.

Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required. It must be carried out with the microwave oven disconnected.

This oven is designed to operate with the turntable in place. Do not operate the microwave oven when the turntable has been removed for cleaning.

Do not allow grease or food particles to build up around the door. for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the marks.

Adding some lemon juice to a cup of water, placing this on the turntable and boiling for a few minutes can eliminate odors inside the oven.

The Grill element does not need cleaning since the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but the ceiling beneath it may need regular cleaning. This should be done with a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent.

If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any splashes, in order to reduce the risk of fire.

For stubborn stains, boil a cup of water in the oven
