INSTALLATION
1. Make sure that all the packing materials are removed from the inside of the door.
2. This microwave oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely
to be cooked in the oven.
3. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity are generated, or near combustible materials.
4. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient airflow. Allow 20cm of space above the oven, 10cm at
back and 5cm at both sides. Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance. Do not remove feet.
5. Do not operate the oven without glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.
6. Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the oven or over any hot or
sharp surface.
7. The socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.
8. Do not use the oven outdoors.
RADIO INTERFERENCE
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar equipment.
When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:
1. Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
2. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
3. Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
4. Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
5. Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver are on different branch
circuits.
MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES
1. Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
2. Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and add more as
needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or
ignite.
3. Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent
spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
4. Turn foods over once during microwaving to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be
turned over at least once.
5. Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall
receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In
the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only the oven be provided.
Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a
fire or other accident causing oven damage.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.
Note
1. If you have any questions about the grounding
or electrical instructions, consult a qualified
electrician or service person.
2. Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can
accept any liability for damage to the oven or
personal injury resulting from failure to observe
the electrical connection procedures.
The wires in this cable main are colored in
accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow = EARTH
Blue = NEUTRAL
Brown = LIVE
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
If the oven fails to operate:
1. Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10
seconds, and plug it in again securely.
2. Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test
the outlet with another appliance.
3. Check to ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set.
4. Check to ensure that the door is securely closed engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise, the
microwave energy will not flow into the oven.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO
NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REP AIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.

UTENSILS GUIDE
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is
transparent to microwave, it allows energy to
pass through the container and heat the food.
2. Microwave can not penetrate metal, so metal
utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be
used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when
microwave cooking, as they may contain small
metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or
fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong
ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to
overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to
prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be
careful don’t use too much and keep a distance
of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
