NOTES:
1.
Your oven can be programmed up to 30 Minutes. The input unit of cooking or defrosting time varies
from 15 seconds to 5 minutes, depending on the total cooking/defrosting time, as marked on the
LIGHT
DISPLAY
.
2.
Your microwave oven is equipped with an energy save mode. The
TIMER
can be set to operate the
microwave oven only within 3 minutes after a cooking cycle ends or after closing the oven door.
Otherwise the oven door must be opened and closed again, before the
TIMER
can be set. This function
also works as a safety function to avoid unintended use.
Your oven has 5 power levels. To choose the power
level for cooking, follow the advice given in the recipe
section. Generally the following recommendations
apply:
800 W
used for fast cooking or reheating e.g.
soup, casseroles, canned food, hot beverages,
vegetables, fish, etc.
560 W
used for longer cooking of dense foods
such as roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals,
also for sensitive dishes such as cheese sauce and
sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the sauce
will not boil over and food will cook evenly without
over cooking at the sides.

cooking time when cooked conventionally, eg. beef
dishes, it is advisable to use this power setting to
ensure the meat will be tender.

ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is
also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and
cooking egg custard.
80 W
For gentle defrosting, eg. cream gateaux or
