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 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 microwave ovens. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a teat are considered to be sealed containers.

10.The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

11.Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

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 the 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 the 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.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.

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 a cord having an earthing wire 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 a risk of electric shock.

NN-SD786S specifications

The Panasonic NN-SD786S is a sophisticated countertop microwave that combines advanced technology with user-friendly features, making it a standout appliance for modern kitchens. This microwave is designed to provide convenience and versatility, allowing users to cook, reheat, and defrost food with ease.

One of the main features of the NN-SD786S is its powerful inverter technology. Unlike traditional microwaves that use a pulsing method to control power levels, the inverter technology provides a consistent stream of cooking power. This results in more evenly cooked food, preserving texture and flavor which is especially important for delicate items such as fish and custards. With power output reaching up to 1250 watts, the NN-SD786S ensures quick and efficient cooking.

The microwave also boasts a sleek stainless steel finish, giving it an elegant look that fits well in any kitchen decor. Its compact design does not sacrifice interior space, as it comes with a generous 1.2 cubic feet capacity, making it suitable for both small and large plates.

Another notable characteristic of the NN-SD786S is its sensor cooking technology. This feature automatically adjusts cooking times and power levels based on the moisture released from the food. It takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking, ensuring optimal results for a variety of dishes, ranging from casseroles to steamed vegetables.

In addition to the intelligent cooking features, the NN-SD786S is equipped with a range of preset cooking options. These one-touch buttons enable users to quickly select the ideal setting for popular foods like popcorn, pizza, and baked potatoes. The microwave also includes an easy-to-read LCD display that enhances usability and allows for straightforward navigation through functions.

The NN-SD786S emphasizes safety with its child lock feature, preventing unintended access to the microwave's functions during operation.

Overall, the Panasonic NN-SD786S is a powerful and efficient microwave that is engineered to make cooking more enjoyable and less time-consuming. With its combination of innovative technologies and convenient features, it serves as an essential tool for both novice cooks and culinary enthusiasts alike.
