Important safety instructions
Do not attempt to replace the oven lamp yourself or allow anyone who is not authorised by Service Force to do so. If the oven lamp fails, please consult your dealer or contact your local Service Force Centre.

To avoid the possibility of explosion and sudden boiling:
WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide- mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape.
Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible scalding:
1.Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
2.It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil into the liquid whilst reheating.
3.Let liquid stand in the oven at the end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit before cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns.
Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns.
To avoid burns, always test food temperature and stir before serving and pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children or the elderly.
Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door when opening to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat.
Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release steam and avoid burns.
Keep children away from the door and accessible parts that may become hot when the grill is in use. Children should be kept away to prevent them burning themselves.
Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, ventilation openings, accessories and dishes during GRILL mode, DUAL GRILL mode and AUTOMATIC operation as they will become hot. Before cleaning make sure they are not hot.
