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 grille is not damaged or broken.
2.The door fits squarely and securely and opens and closes smoothly.
3.The door hinges are in good condition.
4.The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are neither buckled nor deformed.
5.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 the 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 the microwave oven. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a teat are considered to be sealed containers.
10.This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
11.Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
12.It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
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 an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and earthed.
Important Instructions
1.Read all instructions before using 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 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.Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
7.Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
8.Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
9.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
10.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
(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.
(d)Never leave microwave unattended while cooking or reheating.
(e)Heating therapeutic wheat bags is not recommended. If heating, do not leave unattended and follow manufacturers' instructions carefully.
11.Do not remove outer panel from oven.
12.Appliances are not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
13.Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Circuits
Your microwave ovens should be operated on a separate circuit from other appliances. The voltage used must be the same as specified on this microwave oven. Failure to do this may cause the power board fuse to blow, and/or food to cook slower. Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.
Practical Hints:
1.For initial use of COMBINATION and GRILL, if you see white smoke arise, it is not malfunction.
2.Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during COMBINATION and GRILL. Use care when opening or closing door and when inserting or removing food and accessories.
3.The oven has a heater situated in the top of the oven. After using the GRILL and COMBINATION functions, the ceiling will be very hot.
4.The accessible parts may become hot when GRILL or COMBINATION is in use. Children should be kept away.
Fan Motor Operation after Cooking
After using this oven, the fan may rotate to cool the electric components. This is perfectly normal, and you can take out the food from the oven while the fan operates.
