1.The grille is not damaged or broken.

2.The door fits squarely and securely and opens and closes smoothly.

3.The door hinges are in good condition.

4.The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are neither buckled nor deformed.

5.The door seals are neither covered with food nor

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 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.

NN-S235, NN-S215 specifications

Panasonic has long been a reputable name in kitchen appliances, and its line of microwave ovens is no exception. The Panasonic NN-S215 and NN-S235 models are notable for their combination of advanced technology, user-friendly features, and reliability.

The NN-S215 is a 1.2 cubic feet countertop microwave that operates at 1200 watts. It incorporates Inverter Technology, a standout feature that delivers consistent and even cooking results. Unlike traditional microwaves that use a pulsing mechanism to reduce power, Inverter Technology provides a steady stream of power, ensuring that food is cooked uniformly without hot spots. This results in better texture and flavor, especially for delicate foods like fish or sauces.

The NN-S215 also offers a variety of power levels, allowing users to customize their cooking experience. It includes one-touch sensor cooking and reheating features that automatically calculate cooking times based on the food type and weight. The microwave has convenient preset buttons for quick access to popular cooking options like popcorn, veggies, and entrees, making meal preparation more efficient.

Similarly, the NN-S235 model features the same capacity and inverter technology, but with added convenience. It comes equipped with a sleek, modern design that seamlessly fits into any kitchen decor. With a stainless-steel finish, this microwave also features a 4-digit display and an easy-to-use control panel.

Both models emphasize safety with a child lock feature that prevents unintentional usage. This is particularly important for households with young children, ensuring peace of mind for parents.

Additionally, the NN-S235 enhances the cooking experience by providing a Keep Warm feature that maintains food at ideal serving temperatures without further cooking it. The presence of a quick minute option allows users to add a minute of cooking time with a single press, further simplifying the cooking process.

In terms of energy efficiency, both models are designed to minimize electricity usage while maximizing performance. Their smart sensor technology optimizes cooking times and power levels, adding to their eco-friendliness.

Overall, the Panasonic NN-S215 and NN-S235 microwaves encapsulate a blend of advanced cooking technology, ease of use, and stylish design, making them excellent additions to any kitchen. Whether cooking, reheating, or defrosting, these microwaves deliver reliable and delicious results.
