• Cooking times given in the cookbook are approximate. The cooking time depends on the condition, temperature, amount of food and on the type of cookware.

• Begin with the minimum cooking time to help prevent overcooking. If the food is not sufficiently cooked you can always cook it for a little longer. N.B. : If the recommended cooking times are exceeded the food will be spoiled and in extreme circumstances could catch fire and possibly damage the interior of the oven.

2) Small Quantities of Foods

• Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and remove the plug from the socket.

• Do not cook eggs in their shells and whole hard-boiled eggs by MICROWAVE. Pressure may build up and the eggs will explode even after microwave heating has ended.

• Food with non porous skins, such as potatoes, egg yolks and sausages must be pierced before cooking by MICROWAVE to prevent bursting.

• Use a meat thermometer to check the degree of cooking of roasts and poultry only when the meat has been removed from the oven. Do not use a conventional meat thermometer when using MICROWAVE or COMBINATION because it may cause sparking.

• 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 of 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 the cooking time. d) After heating, allow it to stand in the oven for a short time, stir again before carefully removing the container.

• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently as these types of containers ignite if overheated.

• Do not use recycled paper products (e.g. Kitchen Roll) unless the paper product is labelled as safe for microwave oven use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires during use.

• Remove wire twist-ties from roasting bags before placing the bags in the oven.

• Do not heat any closed cans or bottles because they might explode.

• Metal containers or dishes with metallic trim should not be used during Microwave cooking. Sparking will occur.

• If you use any aluminium foil, meat spikes or metalware the distance between them and the oven walls and door should be at least 2 cm to prevent sparking.

9) Feeding Bottles/Baby Food Jars

• The top and teat or lid must be removed from feeding bottles or baby food jars before placing in the oven.

• The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken.

• The temperature has to be checked before consumption to avoid burns.En-5 Outline Diagram [1] Door Release Button Press to open the door.

1. Turn the oven off before cleaning.

2. Keep the inside of the oven, door seals and door seal areas clean. When food

spatters or spilled liquids adhere to the oven walls, door seals and door seal areas wipe off with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if they get very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasive is not recommended. DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS.

3. The outside oven surface should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage

to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering the glass.

4. If the Control Panel becomes dirty, clean it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh

detergents or abrasives on the Control Panel. When cleaning the Control Panel, leave the oven door open to prevent the oven from accidentally turning on. After cleaning touch STOP/CANCEL Pad to clear the display window.

5. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft

cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates a malfunction of the unit.

6. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in

warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.

7. The roller ring and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive

noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and hot water then dry with a clean cloth. The roller ring may be washed in mild soapy water. Cooking vapours collect during repeated use but in no way affects the bottom surface or roller ring wheels. After removing the roller ring from the cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it in the proper position.

8. When using the GRILL, CONVECTION or COMBINATION mode, some foods may

inevitably splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally, it may start to “smoke” during use.

9. A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning.

10. This oven should only be serviced by qualified personnel. For maintenance and

repair of the oven contact the nearest authorized dealer.

11. Keep air vents clean at all times. Check that no dust or other material is blocking

any of the air vents on the top, bottom or rear of the oven. If air vents become blocked this could cause overheating which would affect the operation of the oven and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
