User Instructions
Fan motor operation
After using the oven, the fan motor
may rotate for a few minutes to cool the
electric components. This is normal and
you can remove food even though the
fan motor operates. You can continue
using the oven during this time.
Meat thermometer
Use a meat thermometer to check
the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry only when the meat has been
removed from the oven. Do not use a
conventional meat thermometer in the
microwave oven because it may cause
sparking.
Paper/plastic
When heating food in paper and plastic
containers, check the oven frequently
as these types of containers ignite if
overheated.
Do not use recycled paper products
(e.g. kitchen roll) unless the paper
product is labelled as safe for
microwave oven use. Recycled paper
products may contain impurities which
may cause sparks and/or fires during
use.
Remove wire twist-ties from roasting
bags before placing the bags in the
oven.
Standing time
Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes
and cakes, require a
standing time
(inside or outside of the oven) after
cook ing, to allow heat to finish
con ducting to cook the centre
completely.
Jacket potato
Stand for 5 minutes, wrapped in
aluminium foil after cooking by
microwave only.
Fish
Stand for 2-3 minutes.
Egg dishes
Stand for 1-2 minutes.
Precooked convenience food
Stand for 1-2 minutes.
Plated meals
Stand for 2-3 minutes.
Vegetables
Boiled potatoes benefit from standing
1-2 minutes, however most other
types of vegetables can be served
immediately. If food is not cooked after
standing time,
return to oven and
cook for additional time.
Defrosting
It is essential to allow standing time to
com plete the process. This can vary
from 5 minutes for raspberries and
up to 1 hour for a joint of meat. See
pages 43-45.
