Safety Instructions

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 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.The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.

11.Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Practical Hints:

Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during COMBINATION, GRILL and OVEN. Use care when opening or closing door and when inserting or removing food and accessories.

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.

Important Instructions

WARNING—To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or excessive microwave energy:

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. Refer to cookbook for more details.

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 twist-ties from bags before placing bag in oven.

(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.

11.Do not remove outer panel from oven.

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.

WARNING—Improper use of the earthing plug can result in electric shock.

Fan Motor Operation after Cooking

After using this oven (such as Grill, Combination or 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.

NN-GS597M specifications

The Panasonic NN-GS597M is a versatile and powerful combination microwave oven designed to elevate your cooking experience. With a sleek, modern design, it seamlessly blends into any kitchen decor while delivering exceptional functionality. This appliance combines the advantages of microwave cooking with the benefits of grilling and convection, allowing for a wide variety of meal preparation methods.

One of the standout features of the NN-GS597M is its Inverter Technology. Unlike traditional microwaves that use a system of on/off cycling to cook food, the inverter delivers a consistent level of power. This means that foods cook evenly and retain more moisture, resulting in better-tasting dishes. This technology is ideal for defrosting, cooking delicate items, or reheating, as it eliminates the hot and cold spots commonly associated with conventional microwaves.

The oven boasts a generous 27-liter capacity, providing ample space for cooking larger meals or multiple dishes simultaneously. Its turntable design ensures that all food items are heated evenly, while the additional grilling function allows you to achieve that crispy finish that is often associated with conventional ovens. The grill element provides high temperatures to brown and crisp food to perfection.

Panasonic has also integrated a range of auto-cook programs into the NN-GS597M, which make meal preparation quick and easy. With a simple touch of a button, users can select from a variety of preset cooking functions tailored to different types of food, such as popcorn, pizza, or vegetables. This not only saves time but also takes the guesswork out of cooking.

Another notable characteristic of this model is its user-friendly controls. The intuitive digital display and straightforward interface simplify operation, allowing for precise timing and power adjustment. The child lock feature also ensures safety in homes with young children, providing peace of mind to parents.

Overall, the Panasonic NN-GS597M is an excellent addition to any kitchen, merging advanced technology with user-friendly features. Its inverter technology ensures consistent results, while the combination of microwave, grill, and convection options expands culinary possibilities. Whether you are a seasoned chef or a cooking novice, this appliance can inspire creativity and efficiency in your everyday cooking tasks.
