➢
Do not use the oven for any reason other than preparing food, such as for drying
clothes, paper or any other non-food items, or for sterilising purposes.
➢
Do not use the oven when it is empty. This could damage the oven.
➢
Do not store anything in the oven, such as papers, cookbooks and so on.
➢
Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes,
chicken livers, ready meals and so on without piercing them several times with a
fork.
➢
Never put any objects into the openings on the outer case.
➢
Never remove parts from the oven such as the feet, screws and so on.
➢
You should use microwave utensils only in line with these instructions.
➢
Do not try to deep-fry foods in this oven.
➢
Heat from the contents of a container may be transmitted to the container itself,
so please be careful when removing it from the oven. Please remember that the
food or liquid inside will be releasing some steam or will be spitting. Never cover
any container fully, always leave a gap for steam to escape.
➢
Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated
food. This is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles
of the utensil. You may need oven gloves to handle the utensil.
➢
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken and
the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
➢
Always test the temperature of cooked food, never eat or drink food or liquid
straight from the oven, allow it to stand for a few minutes and stir to distribute the
heat evenly.
➢
Food containing a mixture of fat and water (for example, stock) should stand for
30 to 60 seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is to allow the
mixture to settle and to prevent it from bubbling when a spoon is placed in it, or a
stock cube is added.
➢
When heating or cooking food or liquid, remember that there are certain foods
(such as Christmas puddings, jam and mincemeat) which heat up very quickly.
➢
When heating or cooking foods that contain a lot of fat or sugar, do not use
plastic containers.
➢
Always have the glass tray and turntable support in place when using the oven.
➢
Never remove parts from the oven such as the feet, screws and so on.
➢
Do not cook food directly on the glass tray. Put food on a suitable plate or in a
bowl before putting it in the oven.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
●
do not overcook food
●
do not leave the microwave oven unattended while you are using it
●
remove wire twist-ties from bags before putting the bag in the oven
●
if materials inside the oven catch fire, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven
off at the wall switch, or shut the power off at the fuse or circuit-breaker panel
Warning:
this oven must be positioned so that the plug is accessible and the plug
socket is within easy reach of the power cord.
