Safety

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 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.

Properly earthed (3-pin plug)

Plugged into a standard 127,220 Volt, 60 Hz, AC earthed socket.

 block the air vents as the oven may overheat and automatically 

switch itself off. It will remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.

• Plug the cable into a 3-pin, earthed socket. If the power cable of this 

appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cable 
(references I-SHENG SP022, KDK KKP 4819 D, SAMIL SP-106B, 
MOONSUNG EP-48E or EUROELECTRIC 3410). Contact your local 
dealer to have it replaced. The power cable of S/AFRICA, U.A.E is 
EUROELECTRIC (3183Y), ISRAEL is PENCON (ZD16A) and 
NIGERIA, GHANA and KENYA is PENCON (UD 13A1) and SAUDI 
ARABIA is MOON SUNG SJT 14AWG, PENCON (UD13A1).

• DO NOT install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings.

Example: Next to a traditional oven or radiator.

The power supply specifications of the oven must be respected and 
any extension cable used must be of the same standard as the 
power cable supplied with the oven.

Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using 
your microwave oven for the first time.

• This microwave oven has to be connected to the plug endurable to 

proper power consumption. This microwave oven has to be 
positioned so that the plug is accessible.

1.

Install the oven on a flat, level, stable surface. Make 
sure there is adequate ventilation for your oven with 
at least 10cm(four inches) of space behind, and on 
the sides of the oven and 20cm(eight inches) of 
above and that the oven is at least 85cm(thirty three 
inches) off the floor.

2.

Remove all packing materials inside the oven. Install 
the roller ring and turntable. Check that the turntable 
rotates freely.
