3. OPERATION

1) Timer

The timer maximum time is 30 minutes.

When the time is up, the microwave will beep, and the timer knob will return to the 0 position.

2) Function/power knob

This microwave features 6 power levels.

Setting Power level Function
HIGHHigh/maximum power	100 % power output Quick cooking
M. HIGHMedium-high power	85% power output Normal cooking
MEDMedium power	66% power output Simmer
M. LOWMedium-low power	40% power output Beverages or soup
DEFROSTDefrost	37% power output Defrost
LOWLow power	17% power output Keep warm

The following table shows different food's approximate defrosting time according to their weight.

	Weight Defrosting duration
Meat 0.1~1.0 kg	1:30~26:00

Poultry 0.2~1.0 kg 2:30~22:00
Seafood 0.1~0.9 kg 1:30~14:00

3) Microwave operation

1. Plug in the power cable.

Note:

• Before connecting it, make sure the timer knob is set on 0 position.
• Do not block the ventilation openings.
• Place the food inside the microwave. It must be inside a container.
• Select the desired power level
• If you wish to select a time value of less than 10 minutes, first set the timer knob to 10 minutes and then set the desired time.
• After this, cooking will begin. If you wish to pause cooking, simply open the door. When you close it again, cooking resumes.
• When the time is up and cooking is finished, a warning beeping will sound and the interior light will switch off. If you remove the food before the time is up, be sure to return the timer to the 0 position. This will prevent the microwave from starting without food inside.

4. TIPS

The following factors may affect the cooking result:

Food location

Place the thicker parts of the food to be cooked towards the outside of the base and the thinner parts towards the inside. Make sure that the food is properly distributed, i.e. that no food is too close together or stuck together.

Cooking time duration

Select a short time setting and, once cooking is complete, add more minutes if necessary. If you overheat food, it may burn and smoke.

Cooking food evenly

If you are cooking chicken, burgers or steaks, turn them over halfway through the cooking process.

There are some foods that need to be stirred (from the outside to the inside) once or twice during the cooking process.

ENGLISH

Do not remove the food from the microwave immediately after cooking is complete

After the cooking time has elapsed, do not remove the food from the microwave immediately. In this way, it will finish cooking thoroughly and cool gradually.

Knowing if the food has been cooked correctly

The colour and hardness of the food help to determine whether it is properly cooked. The following cases indicate good cooking:

Steam comes out evenly from the food, not just from the ends.

Bird parts are not rigid.

There is no trace of blood on pieces of meat or poultry.

The fish pieces can be cut with a fork.

Using a browning pan

When using a specific browning pan or a self-heating pan, always place a heat insulator underneath (e.g. a porcelain plate).

Microwave-safe plastic film

When cooking foods with a high fat content, avoid contact with the plastic film, otherwise the film will melt.

Microwave-safe plastic cookware

Some microwave-safe plastic cookware may not be suitable for cooking foods with a high fat or sugar content. In addition, it must always be ensured that the preheating time specified in the cookware's instruction manual is not exceeded.

Microwave-safe containers

Only use containers that are suitable for the microwave. In general, heat-resistant ceramic, glass or plastic ones are. Never use metal containers, as sparks may be produced. If you are in doubt as to whether or not a container is suitable for the microwave, please refer to the table below.

Container material Microwave	wave-safe Comments
Heatproof ceramics Yes		Never use ceramics decorated with metallic or enamelled elements.
Heatproof plastic Yes Avoid prolonged heating of this container.
Heat-resistant glass Yes
Plastic film Yes		It must not be used for cooking meat, as excessive heat can damage the film.
Rack No
Metal container No		Do not put metal containers in the microwave. Microwaves cannot penetrate through metal.
Lacquer No		They are not very resistant to heat. Not suitable for high temperature cooking.
Cannot be used for high-temperature cooking	No	These materials are not very heat resistant. Therefore, they are not suitable for high temperature cooking.

5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning

The appliance, as well as food remains, must be cleaned and removed regularly. Lack of maintenance of the microwave may affect operation and could damage the microwave.

• Unplug the appliance
• Do not immerse in water or any other liquid when cleaning.
• If you do not clean the microwave regularly, its service life will be affected.
• Do not use abrasive cleaning products or scouring pads to clean the microwave.
• If you notice that the microwave is emitting unpleasant odours, follow one of the 3 cleaning methods below:
• Place several lemon slices in a cup and heat them at high power for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Place a cup of red tea and heat it on high power.
• Put in some orange peels and heat on high power for 1 minute.
• When the microwave is not in use, place it in a dry and ventilated place.
• Wipe up splashes or spilled liquids with a damp cloth.
• Do not use strong detergents, powder abrasives, or metal brushes to clean the appliance.
• Do not allow the control panel to get wet.

ENGLISH

• If steam builds up inside or around the outside of the microwave door, wipe it with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions and is normal.
• Also clean the exterior, door, seals, viewing window and adjacent parts.
• When you have finished using the microwave, wipe the inside surfaces that have come into contact with food with a damp cloth to remove any residue and then dry them thoroughly. Accumulated grease can overheat and start to smoke or catch fire.

If the appliance does not work:

• Make sure the appliance is properly plugged to the socket. If not, unplug it, wait 10 seconds, and properly re-plug it.
