IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure
top performance from this oven:
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food
preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any
other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage
the oven.
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage,
such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in
place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating
base.
5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking
when you cook food sealed in bottles.
6. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface
and door. It could result in excessive leakage of
microwave energy.
7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They
may contain impurities which could cause sparks
and/or fires when used during cooking.
8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave
approved popcorn popper or unless it’s commercially
packaged and recommended especially for
microwave ovens.
Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield than
conventional popping; there will be a number of
unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified by
the manufacturer.
9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane,
such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc.,
without first piercing them several times with a fork.
10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer’s
directions. (popping time is generally below 3
minutes).
Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it
can cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle
or may break.
11. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the
appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle
any flames.
12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
check the oven frequently due to the possibility of
ignition.
13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to
be checked before consumption, in order to avoid
burns.
14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which
has been heated in a microwave oven before you
give it to somebody, especially to children or elderly
people. This is important because things which have
been heated in a microwave oven carry on getting
hotter even though the microwave oven cooking has
stopped.
15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall
not be heated in microwave ovens since they may
explode.
16. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe
the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each
use. If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the
cavity it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire
when next using the oven.
17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot
control the temperature and doing so may lead to
overheating and fire.
18. Microwave heating of beverages can result in
delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be
taken when handling the container.
19. a) Be cautions about touching parts other than
control panel during or immediately following grill
or combi cooking.
b) Always use hot pads or oven mitts when placing
or removing food and/or accessories from the
oven.
