3.3 Grounding instructions

This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the elec- tric current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dan- gerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage.

WARNING: Improper use of

the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

If you have any questions about the grounding or elec- trical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or ser- vice person. 3 Installation and connection

Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any lia- bility for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection proce- dures. The wires in this cable main are colored in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow = EARTH Blue = NEUTRAL Brown = LIVE

3.4 Before you call for service

If the oven fails to operate:

1. Check to ensure that the oven is

plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 sec- onds, and plug it in again securely.

2. Check for a blown circuit fuse or a

tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance.

3. Check to ensure that the control panel

is programmed correctly and the timer is set.

4. Check to ensure that the door is se-

curely closed engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise, the micro- wave energy will not flow into the oven.

1. Microwave cannot penetrate metal.

Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. Metallic con-Microwave Oven / User Manual 14 / EN 3 Installation and connection tainers for food and beverages are not allowed during microwave cooking. This requirement is not applicable if the manufacturer specifies size and shape of metallic containers suitable for microwave cooking.

2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so

metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.

3. Do not use recycled paper products

when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

4. Round /oval dishes rather than

square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may

be used to prevent overcooking of ex- posed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.

Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once. • Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.Microwave Oven / User Manual 19 / EN 5 Cleaning and care

5.1 Cleaning and care

line, solvent, abrasive clean-ing agents, metal objects or hard brushes to clean the appliance.

the appliance or its power cable in water or in any other liquid.1. Turn off the oven and remove the pow-er plug from the wall socket before cleaning.2. Wait for the appliance to completely cool down.3. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid the use of spray and other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.4. The outside surfaces 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.5. Wipe the both sides of the door and window, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaner.6. A steam cleaner is not be used.7. Do not allow the control panel to be-come wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the control panel, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.8. 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 condition. And it is nor- mal. 9. It is occasionally necessary to remo-ve the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.10. The roller ring and oven floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid exces-sive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild deter-gent. The roller ring may be washed in mild sudsy water or dishwasher. When removing the roller ring from cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace in the proper position.11. Remove odors from your oven by combining a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a deep microwaveable bowl, microwave for 5 minutes. Wipe thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.12. When it becomes necessary to rep-lace the oven light, please consult a dealer to have it replaced.13. Please do not dispose this applian-ce into the domestic rubbish bin; it should be disposed to the particular disposal center provided by the mu-nicipalities.14. When the microwave oven with grill function is first used, it may produ-ce slight smoke and smell. This is a normal phenomenon because the oven is made of a steel plate coated with lubricating oil, and the new oven will produce fumes and odor gene-rated by burning the lubricating oil. This phenomenon will disappear af-ter a period of using.Microwave Oven / User Manual 20 / EN 5 Cleaning and care

• If you do not intend to use the appli- ance for a long time, please store it carefully.
