Important safety instructions
Read carefully and keep for future reference
WARNING
: Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in FIRE and
subsequent DAMAGE to the OVEN.
1 Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adju-
stments or repairs to the door, control panel, safety
interlock switches or any other part of the oven.It is
hazardous for anyone to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves the removal of any
cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy. Repairs should only be undert-
aken by a qualified service technician.
2 Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to
leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use.
The water will safely absorb all microwave energy,
if the oven is accidentally started.
3 Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidifi-
cation. It can be the cause of serious damage of
safety. (ex. Operating the microwave oven with the
wet newspapers, clothes, toys, pet or portable
electric devices, etc.)
4 Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless
your cook book contains instructions, for the food
you are cooking.
5 Do not use newspaper in place of paper towels for
cooking.
6 Do not use wooden containers. They may heat-up
and char. Do not use ceramic containers which have
metallic (e.g. gold or silver) inlays. Always remove
metal twist ties. Metal objects in the oven may arc,
which can cause
serious damage.
7 Do not operate the oven with a kitchen towel, a
napkin or any other obstruction between the door
and the front edges of the oven, which may cause
microwave energy leakage.
8 Do not use recycled paper products since they may
contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or
fires when used in cooking.
9 Do not rinse the turntable by placing it in water just
after cooking. This may cause breakage or damage.
10 Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or
heating time. If normal times are allowed they may
overheat and burn.
11 Be certain to place the oven so the front of the door
is 8 cm or more behind the edge of the surface on
which it is placed, to avoid accidental tipping of
the appliance.
12 Before cooking, pierce the skin of potatoes, apples
or any such fruit or vegetable.
13 Do not cook eggs in their shell. Pressure will build
up inside the egg which will burst.
14 Do not attempt deep fat frying in your oven.
15 Remove the plastic wrapping from food before
cooking or defrosting. Note though that in some
cases food should be covered with plastic film, for
heating or cooking.
16 If the oven door or door seals are damaged, the
oven must not be operated until it has been rep-
aired by a qualified service technician.
17 If smoke is observed, switch off or disconnect the
oven from the power supply and keep the oven
door closed in order to stifle any flames.
18 When food is heated or cooked in disposable
containers of plastic, paper or other combustible
materials, check the oven frequently due to the
possibility of the food container is deteriorating.
19 Only allow children to use the oven without super-
vision when adequate instructions have been given
so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe
way and understands the hazards of improper use.
20 Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed
containers since they are liable to explode.
21 Do not operate the oven, if the door seals and
adjacent parts of the microwave oven are faulty,
until the oven has been repaired by a qualified
service technician.
22 Check the utensils are suitable for use in microwave
ovens before use.
23 Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear
cabinet, oven cavity,accessories and dishes during
grill mode, convection mode and auto cook
operations, unless wearing thick oven gloves, as
they will become hot.Before clearing make sure
they are not hot.
