WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be

heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container. Never use sealed containers. Remove seals and lids before use. Sealed containers can explode due to a build up of pressure even after the oven has been turned off. Take care when microwaving liquids. Use a wide mouthed container to allow bubbles to escape. Never heat liquids in narrow necked containers such as baby bottles, as this may result in the contents erupting from the container when heated and cause burns. To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid and possible scalding:

1. Do not use excessive amount of time.

2. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.

3. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or similar utensil

(not metal) into the liquid whilst reheating.

4. Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds in the oven

at the end of cooking time to prevent delayed eruptive boiling. Do not cook eggs in their shells, and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even af ter microwave cooking has ended. To cook or reheat eggs which have not been scrambled or mixed, pierce the yolks and the whites, or the eggs may explode. Shell and slice hard boiled eggs before reheating them in the microwave oven. Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes, sausages and fruit before cooking, or they may explode. To avoid the possibility of burns

WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles and

baby food jars must be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns. Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing food from the oven to prevent burns. Always open containers, popcorn makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from the face and hands to avoid steam burns and eruption of boiling. To avoid burns, always test food temperature and stir before serving and pay special attention to the temperature of food and drink given to babies, children or the elderly. Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away. Temperature of the container is not a true indication of the temperature of the food or drink; always check the food temperature. Always stand back from the oven door when opening it to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat. Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to release steam and avoid burns. Keep children away from the door to prevent them burning themselves. To avoid misuse by children

GB-14 SUITABLE OVENWARE To cook/defrost food in a microwave oven, the microwave energy must be able to pass through the container to penetrate the food. Therefore it is important to choose suitable cookware. Round/oval dishes are preferable to square/oblong ones, as the food in the corners tends to overcook. A variety of cookware can be used as listed below. Cookware Microwave Safe Grill

Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to shield food from overheating. Keep foil at least 2 cm from the oven walls, as arcing may occur. Foil containers are not recommended unless specified by the manufacturer, e.g. Microfoil®, follow instructions carefully.

Always follow the manufacturers instructions. Do not exceed heating times given. Be very careful as these dishes become very hot.

Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, except for those with metallic decoration. Glassware e.g. Pyrex ®

Care should be taken if using fine glassware as it can break or crack if heated suddenly. Metal

It is not recommended to use metal cookware as it will arc, which can lead to fire. Plastic/Polystyrene e.g. fast food containers

Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt or discolour at high temperatures. Cling film

Should not touch the food and must be pierced to let the steam escape. Freezer/Roasting bags

Must be pierced to let steam escape. Ensure bags are suitable for microwave use. Do not use plastic or metal ties, as they may melt or catch fire due to the metal ‘arcing’. Paper - Plates, cups and kitchen paper

Only use for warming or to absorb moisture. Care must be taken as overheating may cause fire. Straw and wooden Containers

Always attend the oven when using these materials as overheating may cause fire. Recycled paper and newspaper

May contain extracts of metal which will cause ‘arcing’ and may lead to fire. Rack

The metal rack supplied have been specially designed for all cooking modes and will not damage the oven. Aluminium foil Foil Containers Browning dishes China and ceramics Mix Grill Comments ENGLISH

When heating food in plastic or paper containers, monitor the oven due to the possibility of ignition. GB-15

HARSH CLEANERS, ANY THAT CONTAIN SODIUM

HYDROXIDE OR SCOURING PADS ON ANY PART OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN. CLEAN THE OVEN AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND REMOVE ANY FOOD DEPOSITS - Keep the oven clean, or the oven could lead to a deterioration of the surface. This could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. Oven exterior The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel. Control panel Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the control panel. Care should be taken in cleaning the control panel. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean. Avoid using excessive amounts of water. Do not use any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner. Oven Interior

1. For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft

damp cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still warm. For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed. Do not remove the waveguide cover.

2. Make sure that mild soap or water does not

penetrate the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.

3. Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.

4. Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill and

heat the oven without food for 20 minutes on grill. Remaining food or fat can cause smoke or a bad smell.

5. Food will release steam during cooking and cause

condensation inside the oven and door. It is important to wipe the oven dry. A build up of condensation will eventually lead to rust forming on the oven interior. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. The waveguide cover is constructed from a fragile material and should be cleaned with care (follow the cleaning instructions above). NOTE: Excessive soaking may cause disintegration of the waveguide cover. The waveguide cover is a consumable part and without regular cleaning, will need to be replaced. Accessories The accessories like turntable, turntable support and rack should be washed in a mild washing up liquid solution and dried. They are dishwasher safe. Door To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and adjacent parts with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaner. NOTE: A steam cleaner should not be used. Cleaning tip - For easier cleaning of your oven: Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300 ml (1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% for 10 -12 minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth. IMPORTANT:

• Close the door after cooking / defrosting. Please note that the light will remain on for 10 minutes when the door is open, this is for safety reason to remind you to close the door.
• If you cook the food over the standard time with only P100 (800 W), the power of the oven will lower automatically to avoid overheating. (The microwave power level will be reduced).
