IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:

Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure top performance from this oven:

1. 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.

11. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance

and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.

12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check

the oven frequently due to the possibility of ignition.

2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the

13. 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.

3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such

as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.

4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place.

Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.

14. 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.

5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking when

you cook food sealed in bottles.

6. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface and

door. It could result in excessive leakage of microwave energy.

15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall not

be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode.

7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They

may contain impurities which could cause sparks and/or fires when used during cooking.

16. 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.

8. 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.

17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control

the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and fire.

18. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed

eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.

9. 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.

10. 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.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE

Refer to the following checklist, you may prevent an unnecessary service call.

  • The oven doesn't work;

1. Check that the power cord is securely plugged in.

2. Check that the door is firmly closed.

3. Check that the cooking time is set.

4. Check for a blown circuit fuse or tripped main circuit breaker in your house.

  • Sparking in the cavity;

1. Check utensils. Metal containers or dishes with metal trim should not be used.

2. Check that metal skewers or foil does not touch the interior walls.

If there is still a problem, contact the service station. A list of these stations is included in the oven.

Although your oven is provided with safety features, it is important to observe the following:

1. It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.

2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow residue to accumulate on

sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.

3. When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on an opened

door or any load could cause the oven to fall forward to cause injury and also damage to the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired by a competent service technician. It is particularly important that the oven closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

ii) Hinges and Hookes(broken or loosened)

iii) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

4. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except a properly competent service

adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation;

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

  • Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?
  • A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing their shells.
  • Q : Why this standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed?
  • A : Standing time is very important. With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside.
  • Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty?
  • A : Yes. Never run it empty.
  • Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says?
  • A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker.
  • Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?
  • A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable.
  • Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?
  • A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins.
  • Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get the best results?
  • A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufacture’s guidelines or use the preset POPCORN pad. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.
  • Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. Is it damaged?
  • A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven. However, it is not recommended.
  • Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or roller guide removed?
  • A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used in the oven before cooking.
  • Q : Can I open the door when the oven is operating?
  • A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed and START is touched.
  • Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after cooking?
  • A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food heating the cool oven surface.
  • Q : Dose microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?
  • A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. UTENSILS TEST Place the utensil in question next to a glass measure filled with water, in the microwave oven. Microwave at high power for 1-2 minutes. If the water heats up, but the utensil remains cool, the utensil is microwave-safe. However if the utensil becomes warm, microwaves are being absorbed by the utensil and it should not be in the microwave oven. You probably have many items on hand in your kitchen right now that can be used as cooking equipment in your microwave oven. Read through the following checklist. COOKING UTENSILS Recommended Use

  • Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and Dishes - Use for heating or cooking.
  • Microwave browning dish - Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with you browning dish.
  • Microwaveable plastic wrap - Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
  • Wax paper - Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
  • Paper towels, paper plates, napkins and cups - Use for short term heating and covering; they absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Always attend the oven closely. Only use to absorb fat and moisture when warming food. Pay special attention as over-heating may cause a fire in your oven. Do not use re-cycled paper products, e.g. kitchen roll unless they say they are specifically designed for use in a microwave oven. These products contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used.
  • Thermometers - Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been removed from the oven.
  • Microwave cling film, microwave roasting bags - Microwave cling film and bags must be vented for steam to escape, pierce in 4~5 places. Do not use plastic or metal ties as they may melt or catch fire due to electrical ‘arcing’. Limited Use
  • Aluminum foil - Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much toil can damage your oven, so be careful.
  • Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware - Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe.” If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metalic trim.
  • Plastic - Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe.” Other plastics can melt.
  • Thin plastic, paper, straw and wooden containers - Always attend the oven closely. Look at the oven from time to time when cooking or reheating food in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible material. Only use for warming food. Pay special attention as over-heating may cause a fire in your oven. Not Recommended
  • Glass jars and bottles - Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter.
  • Paper bags - These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
  • Styrofoam plates and cups - These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
  • Plastic storage and food containers - Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
  • Metal utensils - These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.

USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY

General Use Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads. Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door. This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven. Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken. Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven. Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire. Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires. Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven. Food Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Always stir liquids before heating. Heated liquids can erupt, if not mixed with air. Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn. Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper bag. Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly on the oven tray. Place the package on a microwave safe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating and cracking the oven tray. Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers' suggested popping time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle. Remove with caution and use pot holders. ARCING If you see arcing, open the door and correct the problem. Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

  • Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
  • Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).
  • Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes, in the microwave.
  • Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine MICROWAVING PRINCIPLES Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in World War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources. Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.

HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD

In a microwave oven, electricity is converted into microwave by the MAGNETRON. Then they pass through the cooking containers to be absorbed by the water molecules in the food, all foods contain water to a more or lesser extent.

STOP/CLEAR TRANSMISSION ABSORPTION The microwaves bounce off the metal walls and the metal door screen. The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, and foods high in these will cook more quickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of 11/2 - 2 inches(4-5cm) and as heat spreads through the food by conduction, just as in a traditional oven, the food cooks from the outside inwards.

STANDING TIME LIQUIDS Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes and cakes, require standing time(inside or outside of the oven) after cooking, to allow heat to finish conducting to cook the center completely. Wrap meat joints and jacket potatoes in aluminium foil while standing. Meat joints need approx. 10-15 minutes, jacket potatoes 5 minutes. Other foods such as plated meal, vegetables, fish etc require 2-5 minutes standing. After defrosting food, standing time should also be allowed. If food is not cooked after standing time, return to the oven and cook for additional time. All liquids must be stirred before and during heating. Water especially must be stirred before and during heating, to avoid eruption. Do not heat liquids that have previously been boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT. TURNING & STIRRING Some foods require stirring during cooking. Meat and poultry should be turned after half the cooking time. ARRANGING MOISTURE CONTENT Individual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, should be placed on a dish so that the thicker parts are towards the outside. Many fresh foods e.g. vegetables and fruit, vary in their moisture content throughout the season, particularly jacket potatoes. For this reason cooking times may have to be adjusted. Dry ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dry out during storage so cooking times may differ. QUANTITY Small quantities cook faster than large quantities, also small meals will reheat more quickly than large portions. DENSITY PIERCING Porous airy foods heat more quickly than dense heavy foods. The skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build up during cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin should be peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to escape. Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc, will all need to be pierced before cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS. CLING FILM Cling film helps keep the food moist and the trapped steam assists in speeding up cooking times. Pierce before cooking to allow excess steam to escape. Always take care when removing cling film from a dish as the build-up of steam will be very hot. COVERING SHAPE Cover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish, vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry items. Even shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better by microwave when in a round container rather than square. SPACING Foods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart. NEVER pile foods on top of each other. STARTING TEMPERATURE The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Food from a fridge takes longer to reheat than food

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine DEFROSTING GUIDE

  • Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe.
  • Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side- down. Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down.
  • The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block.
  • After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the food. Toy may wish to turn over, break apart, rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food.
  • During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the over. At this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the techniques listed below for optimum defrost results. Then, close oven door, touch the START pad to complete defrosting.
  • When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly, or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas. Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool water until defrosted ➪ Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops. ➪ Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops, hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef. ➪ Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arching, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door. ➪ Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portions should be removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g). DEFROSTING CHART Defrosting Time Standing Time 8-10 min. 15-20 min.
