UNDERSTANDING YOUR OVEN

DO NOT

 use the oven without the turntable and support OR turn the 

turntable over so that a large dish can be placed in the oven.

The turntable will turn both clockwise and counterclockwise. 

ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.

When using the oven at power levels below 100% you might hear the 

magnetron cycling on and off. 

It is normal for the exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when 

cooking or reheating. 

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. The humidity in a room 

and the moisture in food will influence the amount of moisture that 

condenses in the oven. Usually, covered foods will not cause as much 

condensation as uncovered foods. 

Microwave Ovens will become 

HOT

 after use. 

DO NOT

 use the oven for anything other than food preparation.

DO NOT

 use the oven to dry clothes or newspapers.

The wattage of this oven is 1000 watts as rated by the IEC Test Procedure 

method. When using your own recipes or package directions please check the 

food a minute or two before the minimum time and add time 

accordingly. Depending on the recipe this oven may cook food more quickly 

then your traditional oven.
