Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check
that the following safety precautions are taken.
1.
DO NOT
use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:
•
Metallic containers
•
Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings
•
Skewers, forks, etc.
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.
2.
DO NOT
heat:
•
Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers. Ex) Baby food jars
•
Airtight food. Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.
Tip:
Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.
3.
DO NOT
operate the microwave oven when it is empty.
Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.
Tip:
Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times. The water will
absorb the microwaves if you accidentally set the oven going when it is
empty.
4.
DO NOT
cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the
oven.
5.
ALWAYS
use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from
the food to the dish.The dishes are therefore hot.
6.
DO NOT
touch heating elements or interior oven walls.
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn even after cooking has finished,
even though they do not appear to be so. Do not allow inflammable
materials to come into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the
oven cool down first.
7.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
•
Do not store flammable materials in the oven
•
Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags
•
Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers
•
If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or disconnect
the oven from the power supply
8.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
•
ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been
switched off so that the temperature can equalize.
•
Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating.
•
Take care when handling the container after heating. You may burn yourself if
the container is too hot.
•
A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.
•
To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic
spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after
heating.
Reason:
During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed; this
means that eruptive boiling can start after the container is removed
from the oven. You may scald yourself.
•
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:
*
Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
*
Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
*
Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.
•
NEVER
fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the
top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with
narrow necks may also explode if overheated.
•
ALWAYS
check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to the
baby.
•
NEVER
heat a baby’s bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if
overheated.
9.
Be careful not to damage the power cable.
•
Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power cable
away from heated surfaces.
•
Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.
10.
Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the door.
Reason:
The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
11.
Keep the inside of the oven clean.
Reason:
Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause
paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12.
You may notice a “Clicking” sound during operation(especially when the oven
is in defrosting).
Reason
:
This sound is normal when the electrical power output is changing.
13.
When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut
off automatically for safety. You can operate the oven normally after letting it
stand for over 30 minutes.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is being
heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible
materials.
IMPORTANT
Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven. Nor
should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of
interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.
WARNING:
If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been
repaired by a competent person.
WARNING:
It is hazardous for anyone other than a comperent person to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against
exposure to microwave energy.
WARNING:
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable
to explode.
WARNING:
Only allow children to use the oven without supervision 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.
