  Place the cookware in the microwave along with a

glass half full of water. Heat on 750 W (100%) for
one  minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should
not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it
for  reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is
room temperature, it is suitable for microwave
cooking.

  Paper napkins, wax paper, paper towels, plates,

cups, cartons, freezer wrap and cardboard are
great  convenience utensils. Always be sure
containers are filled with food to absorb energy
and thus avoid the  possibility of overheating.

  Many plastic dishes, cups, freezer containers and

plastic wraps may be used in the microwave
oven.  Follow manufacturer’s instructions when
using plastics in the oven. Avoid using plastic
utensils with foods  that have high fat or sugar
content since these foods reach high
temperatures and could melt some plastics.

  Do not leave oven unattended, and look at it from

time to time when heating or cooking food in
plastic,  paper or other combustible containers. If
smoke is observed, keep door closed, switch the
oven off or  disconnect oven until smoke stops.

  Metal utensils and utensils with metallic trim

should not be used in the microwave oven, unless
specifically  recommended for microwave use.

  Containers with restricted openings, such as

bottles, should not be used for microwave
cooking.

  Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a

dish to avoid steam burns.

  Do not heat food in a can in the microwave oven.

Always remove the food to a suitable container.

  Deep fat frying should not be done in the

microwave oven, because the fat temperature
cannot be  controlled, hazardous situations can
result.

  Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven,

but only in special packages or utensils designed
specifically for this purpose. This cooking
operation should never be unattended.

  Pierce foods with non-porous skins or

membranes to prevent steam build-up and
bursting. Apples,  potatoes, chicken livers, and
egg yolks are examples of items that should be
pierced.

WARNING: When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces
and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating
the  liquid beyond boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden
boil over of  the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility
the following steps should be taken:
1.  Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow

necks.

2.  Do not overheat.
3.  Stir the liquid before placing the container in the

oven and again halfway through the heating time.

4.  After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a

short time, stirring again before carefully removing
the  container.

  Some products such as whole eggs and sealed

containers – for example, closed glass jars – may
explode  and should not be heated in this oven.
Occasionally, poached eggs may explode during
cooking. Always  pierce the yolk, then cover and
allow the standing time of one minute before
removing cover.

NOTE:

  Do not force the turntable to rotate by hand. This

may cause malfunctioning.

  Arcing in the oven during microwave operation

usually occurs from use of metallic utensils.
Continuous  arcing, however, can damage the
unit. Stop the programme and check the utensil.

  Care should be taken not to obstruct any air vents

located on the top, rear, side and bottom of the
oven.

Do not use this oven for commercial purposes.

This oven is made for domestic use only.

Keep these instructions
