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 microwave cooking 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 re 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
quali ed 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 ow into the oven.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED
TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR 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 cannot 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 res.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in
corners tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminium 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.
