Congratulations on the purchase of your new microwave oven
Thank you for having chosen an Husqvarna product. We are convinced that you will find your new microwave oven very useful and that it will be of great help to you. As with all new kitchen appliances, it will take some time to learn all the new functions and features, but with time, this oven will become indispensable to you. In order that you can get the best from your new Husqvarna microwave oven, the following instructions have been prepared. Please make sure you read them carefully. It is important that this instruction book is retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or if you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance.
Microwave cooking provides true innovation for the culinary arts. Combining rapidity and ease of use, it enhances flavours and aromas all the while keeping the appearance and nutritive qualities intact.
Your microwave oven will complement your other kitchen appliances. It cooks, reheats and defrosts quick as a wink, affording you considerable time and energy savings.
The microwaves used for cooking are electromagnetic waves. They exist in our environment as do radioelectric waves, light, and infrared rays. They are reflected by metals. They pass through all other materials. They are absorbed by water, sugar and fat molecules.
When food is exposed to microwaves there follows a vibration of the molecules, which in turn produces heat.
The depth of penetration of the waves into food is about 2.5cm . If the food is thicker the centre is cooked by normal conduction of heat.
It is worth noting that the microwaves produce a simple heat reaction inside food and are not at all harmful to your health.
Due to the nature of microwave cooking, foods rich in water, sugar or fat require less cooktime and yield the best results.
Safety instructions
General
- Your appliance is designed exclusively for the domestic purposes of defrosting, heating or cooking foods. The manufacturer bears no responsibility in the case of improper usage.
- The appliance should only be operated with the turntable and turntable support inserted.
- Only suitable microwave ovenware should be used.
- Do not leave the appliance unattended when warming or cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper, or other flammable materials, due to fire hazard.
- If smoke is observed, turn the oven off, disconnect the power supply and keep the oven door closed to extinguish any flames. Contact your local HUSQVARNA Service Force Centre. Never use the microwave oven if it is no longer functioning properly.
- This appliance complies with all relevant safety instructions. In order to maintain the safety of the appliance, repairs should only be carried out by a HUSQVARNA Service Force Centre. WARNING: it is dangerous for anyone other than qualified personnel to make any repairs requiring removal of the cover providing protection from exposure to microwave energy. In the case of any defect or breakdown, please therefore contact your local HUSQVARNA approved retailer or the HUSQVARNA Service Force Centre.
WARNING: Should the door seals and / or door seal surfaces be damaged, the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by the HUSQVARNA Service Force Centre.
- Damaged appliance parts can only be replaced by exactly the same make of parts. Special tools are required for this operation.
- Never tamper with the lock mechanism of your microwave oven; you could cause damage requiring repair by an authorised technician.
WARNING: This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Do not allow children to use the microwave oven without supervision unless they have been thoroughly instructed in the proper use and the dangers of improper operation.
For trouble free and safe operation
- Never jam anything between the door and the door frame.
- Always keep the door seals and their surfaces clean.
- Do not keep any flammable items in the microwave. They could ignite when the unit is switched on.
- Switch the appliance on only when the food has been placed inside the cooking space, as it could overload if there is no food present.
Utensil & food safety
- During delayed boiling, the boiling temperature is attained without the typical steam bubbles rising. When the container is shaken, even gently, the liquid may then suddenly vigorously boil over or spurt - with the risk of scalding the user. To prevent liquids from boiling over and possible burns, whenever heating liquid, please place a teaspoon in the container and wait 20 seconds before removing the containers from the appliance or adding anything to the liquid, to avoid sudden spurting of the liquid.
WARNING: Be sure to remove the cap or lid before cooking foods or heating liquids in a sealed bottle or container, which could otherwise explode. - Make sure that a minimum temperature of 70^ C is attained for the cooking / heating of food. Never use a mercury or liquid thermometer for measuring the temperature of the food.
- Baby food in jars or bottles should always be heated without a lid or top, and well stirred or shaken after heating, to ensure uniform distribution of the heat. Always check the temperature before feeding to your child in order to avoid scalding.
- The hot food in a microwave oven will heat up the ovenware. For this reason always use oven gloves for handling hot dishes.
-
Never cook your food for too long or at too high a power setting. Some areas of the food can dry out or even ignite.
-
To protect the appliance against corrosion from moisture (condensation) in the cavity or on the door, wipe these areas dry after each use.
- Do not use porcelain or ceramic crockery, or porous earthenware (e.g. on the handles or unglazed bases) in your microwave as these types of dishes can absorb moisture from the food as it is cooking. This can cause vapour pressure to build up which could shatter the dish.
- Food with «skin» or «peel», such as potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, and the like, should be pierced with a fork so that any steam present can escape and the food will not burst.
Do not use your microwave oven for the following :
- The heating or cooking of boiled, coddled eggs or fried eggs by microwave is prohibited. They can burst and cause serious burns or irreparable damage to your oven.
- to heat large quantities of cooking oil (fondue or deep frying) and drinks containing a high percentage of alcohol - there is danger of spontaneous combustion!
to heat unopened cans, bottles, etc.
to dry animals, textiles or paper.
Suitability of cookware
Place the cookware in the microwave along with a glass half full of water. Heat on maximum power level for one minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should not
use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it for reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is room temperature, it is suitable for microwave cooking.

Microwave hints
- Always keep the oven clean – avoid spill-overs and do not forget to clean under the glass tray and the inside of the door.
- Preferably use round or oval cassetoles with a lid when cooking in your microwave oven.
- Do not use metal or metal decorated casserole dishes. Certain plastic materials can melt and be warped by hot food.
- Cover the food when cooking. Use a glass lid, a plate or grease-proof paper.
- Pastry, bread and the like can be defrosted directly in a bread basket or on a paper towel.
- If frozen food is heated in its packaging, the packaging should be opened. Packaging containing metal or metal decoration must not be used unless specifically recommended for use in the microwave. Remove metal clips and wire ties.
-
Smaller pieces of aluminium foil can be used to cover parts that easily overcook such as chicken legs.
-
Food with peel or skin should be pierced with a fork - e.g. potatoes and sausages. Do not boil eggs in the microwave oven as they can explode.
- Put large, thick pieces close to the edge of the casserole and try to cut the food into even-sized pieces. Always place the food in the centre of the oven.
- The food will be more evenly cooked if you stir or turn it regularly.
- Always set a shorter cooking time than indicated in your recipe to avoid overcooking. The larger the amount of food the longer it takes.
Use little or no water for vegetables. - Use less salt and spices than with traditional cooking methods.
- Season at the end of the programme.
- Allow a few minutes 'standing time' after the oven has switched off to ensure complete and even cooking results.
Always ensure food is piping hot throughout before serving.
Use gloves when taking dishes and food from the oven.

Care & cleaning
Do not attempt to tamper with or make any adjustments or repairs to any part of the oven. Repairs should only be made by an authorised service engineer.
! Be sure the oven is off or the unit is unplugged before cleaning.
Do not clean your microwave oven with a vapor cleaner.
The oven must always be clean. Failure to clean the appliance regularly may damage its surfaces, reduce durability and lead to hazardous operation. Residue of food from spill-overs or spatters that is allowed to remain on the oven walls, door seal and door surface will absorb microwave energy causing it to burn on. This could reduce the efficiency of the oven, and possibly damage the oven interior.
Cleaning the accessories
(turnable and support)
Clean them with mild detergent after removing them from the cavity. The turntable support should be carefully handled.
The inside of the oven and turntable get very hot, so do not touch them immediately after use.
Cleaning the interior
Use mild, liquid detergent, warm water and a soft, clean cloth to remove soilage.
NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS, COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS OR STEEL WOOL PADS ON ANY PART OF THE MICROWAVE OVEN.
To loosen difficult soilage, boil a cup of water in the microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes. NEVER USE A KNIFE OR ANY UTENSIL TO REMOVE SOILAGE FROM OVEN SURFACES.
To remove odours from the oven interior, boil a cup of water plus 2 tablespoons of lemon juice for 5 minutes.
Cleaning the exterior
Open the oven door when cleaning the control panel. This will prevent the oven from being turned on accidentally. You should clean outside surfaces of the oven with mild liquid detergent and water followed by a wiping with clear water to remove any excess detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. Pay special attention to the door seal and front of the cavity which must be kept clean at all times. If these surfaces are damaged because of excessive soiling, call in a specialised technician before using your microwave oven. Spray-on window cleaners or all purpose spray-on kitchen cleaners can also be used. Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or harsh chemicals on outside surfaces of your oven. To prevent damage to the working parts, do not allow water to seep into ventilation openings.
