WARNING

When heating liquids, e.g. soups, 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:

• Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks.
  Do not overheat.
• Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.
  After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stir or shake them again carefully and check the temperature of them before consumption to avoid burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars).

When you unpack your microwave oven from its box, please check it immediately for damage. If the door is damaged or bent, if there are dents inside the oven etc., get in touch with your retail outlet immediately.

When preparing ready-to-serve food (like TV dinners) always carefully follow the instructions provided by the food manufacturer on the package and also the tips and guidelines contained at the end of this manual.

Cooking safely with microwaves

Microwaves are high frequency electromagnetic waves like radio waves. They create heat by causing the molecules in water, fat and sugar to vibrate. They only penetrate a certain depth (e.g. approx. 25 mm into meat) and this heat is then conducted to the rest of the item being cooked.
Tableware must be suitable for use in a microwave oven. For example, dishes made of temperature resistant glass, ceramics, porcelain and plastic (in the case of combination cooking it should also be fireproof). Never place closed metal containers into your microwave oven - the microwaves are reflected and the food will not get warm.
◆In the case of TV dinners the food can be left in the aluminium tray with the top removed.
- Microwaves can damage any crockery with gold or silver decoration.
- Never place food in the oven in closed containers - the container could explode.
- Food with a skin or peel can explode. Never place eggs in a microwave. When cooking items such as potatoes, chicken livers etc., puncture the skin using e.g. a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Never heat spirits (alcoholic drinks) to high temperatures; they may self-ignite.
- When heating small amounts of liquid (e.g. a cup of tea/coffee), place a spoon in the cup to prevent boiling over.
- Food which has been cooked with a microwave continues to cook after the oven is switched off. Before allowing others, in particular children or older people, to eat food or drinks from the microwave oven check that the temperature of the food is acceptable (danger of burning/scalding).
◆ Help the heat to spread uniformly by stirring and turning, in particular after only short heating periods.
- Never turn the microwave oven on without food in the chamber - it might overload and get damaged.
◆ Metal items, e.g. dishes, should not touch the walls of the oven, this can cause sparking and could cause a fire.
◆Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode.

General cooking hints

◆ If during the program cooking operation you hear sound 4 times 3 beeps, turn over the food.
When cooking a roast with an excess amount of drippings, it is helpful to remove the dripping at turnover time to prevent spattering.
◆ Prick the meats, fish or poultry with a fork to prevent bursting. Steam builds up pressure in meats, fish, or poultry which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane.
◆ Reduce suggested cooking times. It is always better to undercook food rather than to overcook them. If a range of times is stated in a recipe, cook the minimum suggested time, check for doneness, and then cook slightly longer if necessary.

When the operation is finished the oven beeps four times, the clock appears in the display, the rotating plate stops turning and the oven light turns off.

Front view of a microwave oven with control panel and display (no visible text or symbols)

Cooking with microwaves differs in some aspects from normal cooking. The guidelines and tips below will help you get better results using a microwave oven.

Tips and guidelines

Wait time

Microwaves do not usually completely penetrate the food on the rotary plate. The wait time allows the food to continue cooking even after the oven has switched off. The temperature can rise by up to 8^ C inside the food. After heating food in the microwave, let it stand in the oven for a short time to allow the temperature to equalise. The wait time depends on the weight, volume and density of the food (and can be up to 10 minutes).

How to cook food without overcooking (drying, charring etc.)

◆Select the right cooking level.
◆Select the right cooking time. Times quoted in recipes are approximate and depend upon initial temperature, weight, density of food etc.
◆Always use microwave-suitable dishes.

Defrosting

◆Defrosting is faster in flatter dishes than in higher dishes.
◆Divide large pieces of food into smaller pieces for faster defrosting.
◆ Cover the smaller pieces when they start to warm up.
◆Do not defrost completely under power, let the food stand for a while.

Amount

To warm up more food you need more time. Rule of thumb: double the food, double the time (almost).

Initial temperature

The colder the food, the more time is needed.

Different foods

When cooking a meal with various ingredients remember that fat and sugar heat up faster than water. This means that ingredients with higher fat and sugar contents will have higher temperatures after cooking than those containing water. The more dense a food, the longer it takes to cook/defrost. Very dense foods, like meat, take much longer to warm up than say sponge cake. Micro heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.

Skins, peels, shells ...

Some foods have a skin, peel or a shell (eggs, potatoes, apples, liver, sausages). Puncture the skin or peel with for example a fork to allow steam to escape and the food to expand - this releases pressure and prevents the food from bursting.

Water

Cooking in a microwave needs very little water. For 100 g of vegetables or potatoes, use 1 tablespoon of water.

Covering food

Food can be covered with foils or tops which let microwave through in order

◆to prevent splashing

◆to shorten the cooking time and/or

◆ to retain any natural moisture in the food (→ Microwave suitable dishes and utensils).

Arranging food - size and shape

To achieve the shortest cooking times and the best results it is sometimes useful to arrange the food in a certain way.

Small pieces cook faster than big pieces.

Pieces of the same size cook more evenly than different sized pieces.

In the case of irregularly shaped pieces, the thin sections will cook faster than the thick sections.

When cooking several of the same item, e.g. stuffed tomatoes, arrange them on the rotating plate in a circle to achieve even cooking.

When cooking irregularly shaped items or food with different thicknesses, place the smaller or thinner parts in the middle and the thicker (denser) parts towards the outside. Alternatively, cover thinner parts with a piece of aluminium foil to prevent drying or charring.

Where possible, place fish with the tail towards the centre, slit the skin to prevent the skin from tearing or bursting open. Another possibility is to cover the head and the tail ends with aluminium foil to prevent premature drying or charring.

When warming up pre-cooked meals, place the thinner and lighter items towards the middle, the heavier and denser items towards the outside of the plate.

Place thin slices (e.g. bacon) on top of one another (fully or partially).

Arrange sausages close together.

Drinks, sauces and gravy should be heated in separate containers. Fill tall narrow vessels only 34 full.

Stir or turn the food every now and then to help spread the heat more evenly.

Line drawing of a microwave oven with control panel and door (no text or symbols)

No components of this microwave oven are user-serviceable. Any repairs or adjustments must always be performed by qualified service technicians.

Before calling technical service

Before calling your technical service, check the following:

Oven doesn't work?

◆ Is the power supply correctly connected?
◆ Is the oven door shut?
◆ Has a cooking time been set?
◆ Has the house mains switch disconnected or the fuse blown?

Sparks in the oven?

◆ Is there metal, or a dish with metal edges or aluminium foil, in the oven? Metal must never touch the inner walls of the oven.

Turn the microwave on without food in oven?

Although switching the oven on for short periods will cause no damage, it is not recommended.

Use the oven without the rotating plate?

- No – always ensure that the rotating plate and its support ring are correctly inserted.

Open door during cooking?

The door can be opened at any time during an operation (e.g. to stir, turn over). The oven switches the operation off immediately. Any settings are kept and when the door is closed again the operation can be continued by pressing START, or cancelled by pressing STOP.

Condensation on oven walls and/or door?

◆ Condensation on the inner surfaces is normal when cooking water containing food.

Can microwaves pass through the door window?

- No – the window is made of a special glass which lets no microwaves through.

◆For more information read the first chapter and the appendix. This should answer most of your questions.
◆If you cannot solve your problem, ask a qualified service technician.

Microwave suitable dishes and utensils

Microwave suitable dishes are transparent to microwaves (i.e. made of such materials as plastic, glass and ceramics), especially when also fireproof. Suitable dishes only become slightly warm after one minute microwave cooking at high power.

Dishes unsuitable for microwave ovens are all metal dishes which reflect microwaves. Also unsuitable for microwaves are dishes made of lead glass, dishes with metal applications (gold edged), paper or plastic containers which cannot withstand high temperatures (120°C).

◆If in doubt, check for information such as "microwave suitable".
◆Bear in mind that this appliance is not only a microwave unit.
Any dishes must also be fireproof when used with the grill or convection.
◆ Dishes, foils and covers should never be allowed to touch the walls of the oven compartment.

Best cooking results are achieved if not only the material but also the shape of the dish is suitable.

Round dishes promote more even heating, whereas in square or rectangular dishes the food can easily dry out or char in the corners.

Food in flat dishes will cook more evenly.

Small pieces of aluminium foil are good for covering any vulnerable sections (e.g. the thin flat tail end of a fish).

Care and maintenance

Although this microwave oven is fitted with state-of-the-art safety arrangements ...

◆Never manipulate or tamper with the door locks or hinges,
Make sure the seals and seal surfaces are free of contamination e.g. food remains or cleaner residues. Clean the oven – especially the seal areas of the door – with a mild cleaning agent. Do not use any abrasive agents or abrasive pads.
Make sure the oven door is not mistreated (e.g. that children don't swing on it). Do not use the oven if it is damaged. It is especially important that the door closes properly. The door must have no distortions, the hinges and locks must not be broken, bent or loose and the seal surfaces must not be corroded.
Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
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 the burns;

Power Supply

◆ Check your local power source. This oven requires a current of approximately 13 amperes, 230V, 50Hz. (KOC-995T2S : 12 amperes)

Moulded plugs (for UK only)

• Should it be necessary to remove a moulded on plug from the mains cable, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable replacement.
  The moulded plug cannot be used for any other appliance, therefore remove the fuse and dispose immediately and safely to prevent anyone, especially children from plugging it in to a wall socket, which will create a safety hazard.
• Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord obtained from the manufacturer.
  ◆Applicable only if moulded plug is fitted.
  After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost a replacement cover must be obtained. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the plug or the colour that is embossed in words in the base of the plug recess or elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover.
  ◆Only 13 A replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to BS 1362 should be fitted.
