Precautions to be taken when
using Microwave Ovens for
Heating Foodstuffs
Inspection for Damage:
A microwave oven should only be used if an
inspection confirms all of the following conditions:
1.
The door fits squarely and securely and opens
and closes smoothly.
2.
The door hinges are in good condition.
3.
The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are
neither buckled nor deformed.
4.
The door seals are neither covered with food nor
have large burn marks.
Precautions:
Microwave radiation from microwave ovens can
cause harmful effects if the following precautions are
not taken:
1.
Never tamper with or deactivate the interlocking
devices on the door.
2.
Never poke an object, particularly a metal object,
through a grille or between the door and the oven
while the oven is operating.
3.
Never place saucepans, unopened cans or other
heavy metal objects in the oven.
4.
Do not let other metallic articles, e.g. fast food foil
containers, touch the side of the oven.
5.
Clean the oven cavity, the door and the seals with
water and a mild detergent at regular intervals.
Never use any form of abrasive cleaner that may
scratch or scour surfaces around the door.
6.
Always use the oven with the trays or cookware
recommended by the manufacturer.
7.
Never operate the oven without a load (i.e. an
absorbing material such as food or water) in the
oven cavity unless specifically allowed in the
manufacturer’s literature.
8.
For horizontally hinged doors, never rest heavy
objects such as food containers on the door while
it is open.
9.
Do not place sealed containers in the microwave
oven. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a
teat are considered to be sealed containers.
10. This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
11. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
12. It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or repair operation
that involves the removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave energy.
13. The surfaces are liable to get hot during use.
Earthing Instructions
This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This microwave oven is equipped
with an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and earthed.
WARNING—Improper use of the earthing plug can
result in electric shock.
Important Instructions
WARNING—To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock,
fire, injury to persons or excessive microwave energy:
1.
Read all instructions before using microwave oven.
2.
Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers - (for example, closed glass jars
and
sealed baby bottles with teat
) may explode and
should not be heated in microwave oven.
3.
Use this microwave oven only for its intended use
as described in this manual.
4.
As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
5.
Do not operate this microwave oven, if it is not
working properly, or if it has been damaged or
dropped.
6. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
7. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
8. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
9.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
10. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
microwave oven if paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed inside the
oven to facilitate cooking.
(b) Remove wire twist-ties from bags before
placing bag in oven.
(c) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep
oven door closed, turn oven off at the wall
switch, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
(d) Never leave microwave unattended while
cooking or reheating.
11. Do not remove outer panel from oven.
12. Appliances are not intended to be operated by
means of an external timer or separate remote-
control system.
13. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition
could lead to deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the appliance
and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Circuits
Your microwave ovens should be operated on
a separate circuit from other appliances. The
voltage used must be the same as specified on this
microwave oven. Failure to do this may cause the
power board fuse to blow, and/or food to cook slower.
Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.
