General Use
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure top performance from this oven:
11. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes. They may catch on fire.
12. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the oven.
13. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
14. Do not operate the oven without the turntable tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
15. Be caution when removing the turntable tray after cooking meats that may have caused an accumulation of grease in the tray.
16. Unlike
Always use hot pads or oven mitts when placing or removing food and/or accessories from the oven.
Be cautions about touching parts other then control panel during or immediately following grill or combination cooking.
17. If the oven is hot from combination cooking, do not use plastic or Styrofoam cookware for microwave cooking. They may melt.
18. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking.
They may contain impurities which could cause sparks and/or fires when used during cooking.
19. Do not continue to cook with metal utensils if sparking appears. See “Accessories” section on page 8 for proper use of cookware.
10.Do not leave the oven unattended during short cooking times. Overcooking and fire may result.
11.Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc., without first piercing them several times with a fork.
12.Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially packaged and recommended especially for microwave ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield than conventional popping; there will be a number of unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified by the manufacturer.
13.Do not attempt to operate this appliance with the door open.
14.Do not attempt to remove covers, panels, etc.
15.Look at the oven from time to time when food is heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.
16.If smoke is emitted, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
17.Microwave heating of berverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
18.Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking when you cook food sealed in bottles.
19.Do not put foreign material between the oven surface and door. It could result in excessive leakage of microwave energy.
20.Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's directions. (popping time is generally below 3 minutes). Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it can cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle or may break.
21.When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
22.Always test the temperature of food or drink which has been heated in a microwave oven before you give it to somebody, especially to children or elderly people. This is important because things which have been heated in a microwave oven carry on getting hotter even though the microwave oven cooking has stopped.
23.Eggs in their shell and whole
24.Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.
25.Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and fire.
26.During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.
