Microwave cooking:
For pure microwave cooking, there are six power
levels from which to choose one as best fit to do
the job at hand. Power level increases with the
dial turning clockwise. The power levels can be
classified as the following:
To start a cooking session:
1. Place food in oven and close the door.
2. Turn Power Selector to select a power level.
3. Use Timer dial to set a cooking time.
NOTE:
As soon as the timer is turned, the
microwave starts cooking.
When selecting time for less than 2 minutes, turn
timer past the 2 minute marker and then return to
the correct required time.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS RETURN TIMER BACK TO
ZERO POSITION.
To stop oven during cooking process, push the
door release button or open the door by the
handle.
Utensils guideline:
It is strongly recommended to only use
containers which are suitable and safe for
microwave cooking. Generally speaking,
containers made of heat-resistant ceramic, glass
or plastic are suitable for microwave cooking.
Never use metal containers for microwave
cooking and combination cooking as sparks are
likely to occur and there is a risk of fire or injury.
When cooking microwave meals, always check
the packaging to see which parts are microwave
