IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not allow grease or dirt to build
up on the door seals and adjacent
parts. Follow the instructions for
“Care & Cleaning”. Failure to
maintain the oven in a clean
condition could lead to a
deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should check with their doctor
or the manufacturer of the pacemaker for precautions regarding
microwave ovens.
To avoid the possibility of electric shock
Under no circumstances should you remove the outer cabinet.
Never spill or insert any objects into the door lock openings or
ventilation openings. In the event of a spill, turn off and unplug the
oven immediately and call you local Service Force Centre.
Do not immerse the power supply cord or plug in water or any other
liquid.
Do not allow the power supply cord to run over any hot or sharp
surfaces, such as the hot air vent area at the top rear of the oven.
Do not attempt to replace the oven
lamp yourself or allow anyone who
is not authorised by Service Force to
do so. If the oven lamp fails, please
consult your dealer or contact your
local Service Force Centre.
If the power supply cord of this appliance is damaged, it must
be replaced with a special cord. The exchange must be made
by an authorised Service Force technician.
To avoid the possibility of explosion and sudden boiling
Warning: Liquids and other foods must
not be heated in sealed containers
since they are liable to explode.
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before
use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build up of
pressure even after the oven has been turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide-mouthed
container to allow bubbles to escape.
Microwave heating of beverages can
result in delayed eruptive boiling,
therefore care has to be taken when
handling the container.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible
scalding:
1. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
2. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil into
the liquid whilst reheating.
3. Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven at the
end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells, and
whole hard boiled eggs should not
be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode even after
microwave cooking has ended. To
cook or reheat eggs which have not
been scrambled or mixed, pierce the
yolks and the whites, or the eggs
may explode. Shell and slice hard
boiled eggs before reheating them in
the microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit
before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the
oven to prevent burns.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags,
etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns.
To avoid burns, always test food
temperature and stir before serving
and pay special attention to the
temperature of food and drink given
to babies, children or the elderly.
Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the
temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door when opening to avoid
burns from escaping steam and heat. Slice stuffed baked foods
after heating to release steam and avoid burns.
