• THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE MICROWAVE

• Your appliance works through microwave radiation which heats the water particles in food in a very short time. There is no radiation of heat and therefore hardly any browning. As a result, the appliance is not suitable for drying purposes.
  ○ Only warm up foodstuffs with this appliance.
• The appliance is not suitable for deep fat frying / cooking.
  Do not try to heat up overly large quantities, otherwise the appliance becomes less efficient.
• Microwaves work at full capacity instantly. It is therefore not necessary to preheat the food.
• The microwave oven does not replace your conventional oven. It is used mainly for:

• defrosting frozen food

• quickly warming up food or drinks
  ■ conditional cooking of food

- Only use suitable cookware such as:

Glass, porcelain, ceramics, heat-proof plastic or special microwave containers.

• CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES

• Set the cooking power by turning the power knob to the desired level.
• Set the cooking time by turning the timer knob to the desired time as per your cooking guide.
• The microwave oven will automatically start cooking after the power level and time are set.
• After the cooking time is up, the unit will «Dong» to stop.
• If the unit is not in use, always set the time to «0».
