READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
• The built-in safety interlock switches prevent the
microwave oven from operating when the door is
open.
• Do not tamper with them, or attempt to operate
the oven with the door open as open door
operation can result in exposure to microwave
energy.
• Do not allow food spills or cleaner residue to
accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See the
Cleaning and Care section for cleaning
instructions.
• It is particularly important that the oven door
closes properly and that there is no damage to
the: (1) door (warped), (2) hinges and latches
(broken or insecure), (3) door seals and sealing
surface.
WARNING : If the door,
hinges/latches or door seals are damaged,
the microwave must not be operated until
it has been repaired by a authorized
service person.
WARNING : It is hazardous for
anyone except factory trained service
personnel to service or make adjustments
to this oven. Contact your nearest
authorised service agent if service should
be required.
• Do not remove the outer case, door or control
panel at any time. Doing so may cause exposure
to extremely high voltage.
• Install or locate this oven only in accordance with
‘installation instructions’ found in this manual.
• Use the appliance for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals in this appliance. This type of oven is
specifically designed to heat, cook, or defrost
food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory
use neither for commercial use as this will
invalidate the guarantee.
• Do not operate the oven empty. If food or water is
not present to absorb the microwave energy, the
magnetron tube can be damaged.
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use
this product near water.
• Do not attempt to dry clothing or newspapers in
the microwave oven. These items can ignite.
• Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do
not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or
food in the cavity when not in use.

high when the appliance is operating.
WARNING : If smoke is observed,
switch off or unplug the appliance and
keep the door closed in order to stifle any
flames. Never use water.
WARNING : Only allow children or
infirm persons to use the microwave,
without supervision, when adequate
instructions have been given so that the
child or infirm person is able to use the
microwave in a safe way and understand
the hazards of improper use.
Utensil safety
• Only use utensils that are suitable for use in a
microwave oven.
• Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant
glass-ware utensils are excellent for use in the
micro-wave oven. Although microwave energy will
not heat most glass and ceramic items, these
utensils can become hot as heat transfers from
the food to the container. The use of oven gloves
to remove dishes is recommended.
Testing suitability of cookware
• Utensils should be checked to ensure they are
suitable for use in Microwave Ovens.
• Place the cookware in the microwave along with a
glass half full of water. Heat on (900W) (100%) for
one minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should
not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it
for reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is
room temperature, it is suitable for microwave
cooking.
