Installation and General Instructions

General Use

1.In order to maintain high quality, DO NOT operate the oven when empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food or water is present to absorb energy.

2.If smoke is observed, press the Stop/Reset Pad and leave door closed. Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

3.DO NOT dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in oven. They may catch on fire.

4.DO NOT use recycled paper products, as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used.

5.DO NOT use newspapers or paper bags for cooking.

6.DO NOT hit or strike control panel. Damage to controls may occur.

7.POT HOLDERS may be needed as heat from food is transferred to the cooking container and from the container to the glass tray. The glass tray can be very hot after removing the cooking container from the oven.

8.DO NOT store flammable materials next to, on top of, or in the oven. It could be a fire hazard.

9.DO NOT cook food directly on glass tray unless indicated in recipes. (Food should be placed in a suitable cooking utensil.)

10.DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other non- food products. DO NOT clean this oven with any product that is labeled as containing corrosive chemicals. The heating of corrosive chemicals in this oven may cause microwave radiation leaks.

11.If glass tray is hot, allow to cool before cleaning or placing in water.

Placement of Oven

1.The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 15 cm of space on the top of the oven, 10 cm at back and 5 cm on both sides. If one side of the oven is placed flush to a wall, the other side or top must not be blocked. DO NOT remove feet.

OPEN

Counter-top

(a)DO NOT block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat. If the oven overheats, a thermal safety device will turn the oven off. The oven will remain inoperable until it has cooled.

(b)DO NOT place oven near a hot or damp surface such as a gas stove, electric range or sink etc.

(c)DO NOT operate oven when room humidity is too high.

2.This oven was manufactured for household use only.

Food

1.DO NOT use your oven for home canning or the heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build up and the jar may explode. In addition, the microwave oven cannot maintain the food at the correct canning temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.

2.DO NOT attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.

3.DO NOT boil eggs in their shell (unless otherwise stated in cookbook). Pressure will build up and the eggs will explode.

4.Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins. This type of food must be pierced before cooking, to prevent bursting.

5.When heating liquids, e.g. soup. sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling.

This could result in a sudden boil over the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken.

(a)Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

(b)DO NOT overheat.

(c)Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through cooking time.

(d)After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container.

6.DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN. To check the degree of cooking of roasts and poultry use a MICROWAVE THERMOMETER. Alternatively, a conventional meat thermometer may be used after the food is removed from the oven. If undercooked, return meat or poultry to the oven and cook for a few more minutes at the recommended power level. It is important to ensure that meat and poultry are thoroughly cooked.

7.COOKING TIMES given in the cookbook are APPROXIMATE. Factors that may affect cooking time are preferred degree of moisture content, starting temperature, altitude, volume, size, shape of food and utensils used. As you become familiar with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these factors.

8.It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN OVERCOOK foods. If food is undercooked, it can always be returned to the oven for further cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Always start with minimum cooking times recommended.

9.Extreme care should be taken when cooking popcorn in a microwave oven. Cook for minimum time as recommended by manufacturer. Use the directions suitable for the wattage of your microwave oven. NEVER leave oven unattended when popping popcorn.

10.When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of ignition.

11.The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
