CAUTION:

• 

Food should be turned over partway through the cooking process to ensure 

even cooking.

• 

Defrosting will typically take longer than cooking.

• 

Defrosting can be considered complete when the food can be cut with a knife.

• 

Microwaves penetrate around 4cm into most foods.

• 

Defrosted food should be consumed as soon as possible; it is not advisable to 

put it back into the refrigerator. DO NOT refreeze food that has been previously 

defrosted.

6 - Troubleshooting

Questions

Answers

Is it normal for the 

glass tray to turn in 

either direction?

Yes. The glass tray can rotate clockwise or anti-clock-

wise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the 

cooking cycle starts.

Can I operate my 

microwave whilst it is 

empty?

No, never run it empty or with a very small load for a 

long period of time, as this will damage the microwave.

Can I open the door 

whilst the microwave is 

running?

You can open the door at any point during cooking. 

The microwave energy will automatically switch off 

when the door is opened, and the time setting will 

pause until the door is closed. 

Why is my microwave 

sparking?

If you see sparks in your microwave, turn it off 

immediately. Sparks can be caused by:

metal or aluminium foil that touches the interior of 

the microwave, metal from a closing strip or tableware 

with metallic edges, recycled paper that contains small 

metal particles and aluminium foil that is not correctly 

covering the food.

Remove anything from the microwave that may contain 

metal. Refer to the Utensils Guideline in this manual for 

reference of what containers are microwave safe.

I am trying to cook 

eggs and they are 

popping. What do I do?

When you bake or poach eggs, the yolk can pop due to 

a build-up of steam inside the yolk membrane. Pierce 

the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook 

eggs without first piercing their shells. 

My microwave is taking 

longer to cook food 

than the cooking guide 

says.

Variations in the size, shape and weight of your food can 

affect cooking times. 

Cooking guide times and heat settings should be used 

as suggestions to help prevent over-cooking. If you find 

the cooking time or temperature is not suited to your 

ingredients, adjust accordingly.
