Important safety instructions

Read carefully and keep for future reference

WARNING

Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in FIRE and subsequent DAMAGE to the OVEN.

1Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. It is hazardous for anyone to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. Repairs should only be undertaken by a qualified service technician.

2Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use. The water will safely absorb all microwave energy, if the oven is accidentally started.

3Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidification. It can be the cause of serious damage of safety. (ex. Operating the microwave oven with the wet newspapers, clothes, toys, pet or portable electric devices, etc.)

4Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless your cook book contains instructions, for the food you are cooking.

5Do not use newspaper in place of paper towels for cooking.

6Do not use wooden containers. They may heat-up and char. Do not use ceramic containers which have metallic (e.g. gold or silver) inlays. Always remove metal twist ties. Metal objects in the oven may arc, which can cause serious damage.

7Do not operate the oven with a kitchen towel, a napkin or any other obstruction between the door and the front edges of the oven, which may cause microwave energy leakage.

8Do not use recycled paper products since they may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used in cooking.

9Do not rinse the turntable by placing it in water just after cooking. This may cause breakage or damage.

10Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time. If normal times are allowed they may overheat and burn.

11Be certain to place the oven so the front of the door is 8 cm or more

behind the edge of the surface on which it is placed, to avoid accidental

tipping of the appliance.

12Before cooking, pierce the skin of potatoes, apples or any such fruit or vegetable.

13Do not cook eggs in their shell. Pressure will build up inside the egg which will burst.

14Do not attempt deep fat frying in your oven.

15Remove the plastic wrapping from food before cooking or defrosting. Note though that in some cases food should be covered with plastic film, for heating or cooking.

16If the oven door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a qualified service technician.

17If smoke is observed, switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply and keep the oven door closed in order to stifle any flames.

18When food is heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of the food container is deteriorating.

19Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

20Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.

21Do not operate the oven, if the door seals and adjacent parts of the microwave oven are faulty, until the oven has been repaired by a qualified service technician.

22Check the utensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens before use.

23Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, accessories and dishes during grill mode, convection mode and auto cook operations, unless wearing thick oven gloves, as they will become hot. Before clearing make sure they are not hot.
