A note on the type of energy used by your Microwave Oven

Microwaves are electromagnetic waves that transmit energy. When cooking, the microwave energy penetrates food to a depth of 4cm (1½ inches), causing its molecules to vibrate. The heat produced by this friction enables food to be heated, cooked or defrosted.

How quickly a microwave oven cooks will depend on the size, quality and shape of the food being cooked. Microwave cooking is healthy in that, without the need for large amounts of cooking liquid, it means that food retains vitamins, nutrients, aromas and flavour.

Microwave Ovens are also more energy efficient than conventional cooking because they use up to 70% less energy.

Never use your Microwave Oven to:

☒ Dry clothes or fabrics
☒ Dry or warm up pets or live animals
☒ Warm or heat any item other than food and the appropriate utensil
☒ Cook sealed containers
☒ Cook items where you have placed a liquid or mercury thermometer (eg. Inside roasts or turkeys)
☒ Heat large quantities of cooking oil (fondue or deep frying) or drinks with high alcohol contents

Turntable ring assembly

a. Never place the glass tray upside down. The glass tray should never be restricted.
b. Both glass tray and turntable ring assembly must always be used during cooking.
c. All food and containers of food should be always placed on the glass tray for cooking.
d. The glass tray rotates clockwise; this is normal.
e. If glass tray or turntable ring assembly cracks or breaks, contact your nearest authorized service centre.

ONCE YOU ARE SURE THAT YOUR OVEN IS NOT DAMAGED (EG. DENTS OR A BROKEN DOOR) AND THAT THERE ARE NO PACKING MATERIALS AND ACCESSORIES INSIDE IT, YOU CAN THEN INSTALL IT ON A FLAT SURFACE SUCH AS A COUNTERTOP. BE SURE THAT THE SURFACE CAN HOLD AT LEAST YOUR MICROWAVE'S WEIGHT (12.0 kg).
BEFORE PLACING ON YOUR COUNTERTOP: REMOVE ANY PROTECTIVE FILM ON THE CABINET SURFACE.
- BUT DO NOT REMOVE THE LIGHT BROWN MICA COVER THAT IS SCREWED TO THE OVEN CAVITY TO PROTECT THE MAGNETRON.
○ FIND A LEVEL SURFACE THAT PROVIDES ENOUGH OPEN SPACE FOR THE INTAKE AND OUTLET VENTS.

• YOU NEED TO LEAVE A MINIMUM OF 3.0 INCHES (7.5 CM) BETWEEN THE OVEN AND ANY ADJACENT WALL. ONE SIDE MUST BE OPEN TO ALLOW THE DOOR TO OPEN AND CLOSE.
• LEAVE A MINIMUM CLEARANCE OF 12 INCHES (30CM) ABOVE THE OVEN.
• DO NOT REMOVE THE LEGS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE OVEN.
• DON'T LET ANYTHING BLOCK EITHER THE INTAKE OR THE OUTLET OPENINGS AS THIS CAN DAMAGE THE OVEN.
  ○ PLACE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE FROM RADIOS AND TELEVISIONS - YOUR OVEN MAY CAUSE SIGNAL INTERFERENCE.
  DO NOT PUT YOUR OVEN ON TOP OF ANY OTHER HEAT-PRODUCING APPLIANCE OR A RANGE COOKTOP. DOING SO COULD DAMAGE YOUR OVEN AND MAKE THE WARRANTY VOID.

Before you Start Cooking with Your Microwave

PLEASE REMEMBER: NOT ALL FOODS AND UTENSILS ARE SUITABLE for use in MICROWAVE OVENS.

• Eggs in their shell or whole hard-boiled eggs since they may explode, even after your Microwave has stopped heating them.
• Foods that need deep-frying: your Microwave cannot deep-fry and is liable to present a fire hazard if you attempt to deep fry with it.
• Foods that you intend to can at home. There is no way of ensuring that foods intended for home canning have

reached the required boiling temperature.

• Narrow-necked containers like syrup bottles – the neck could explode.
• Never use your Microwave when it is empty. This is a fire hazard.
• Sealed liquids and food containers – these will almost certainly explode – NEVER PLACE THEM IN YOUR MICROWAVE!

And please be careful with ...

Heating liquids and drinks: when you heat liquid using a Microwave, part of the liquid can exceed boiling point. Its surface tension is such that it will be susceptible to upward surges. To avoid the risk of being scalded, always handle bowls and cups of heated liquid steadily and carefully. PLEASE SEE NEXT PAGE FOR FURTHER ADVICE TO AVOID SCALDING!

You can reduce the chances of this happening further by

1. Avoiding using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
2. Not overheating.
3. Stirring the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time.
4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container, using a cloth or oven glove.

Likewise, if you are heating feeding bottles and baby food jars always stir or shake them and then check the temperature before you serve them, to avoid burns. Remember that babies can be easily scalded!
☐ If you are cooking bacon, do not place it directly on the turntable as excessive heating may make the turntable likely to break.
Bagged Popcorn – always read the manufacturer's guidelines before Microwaving bagged popcorn.
Always pierce foods with non-porous skins to reduce the risk of them bursting from inside steam build-up; eg: apples, potatoes, chicken livers and egg yolks.
Be sure to make checks on your food during operation to avoid burning and excessive cooking.
Always be careful when opening partially sealed containers – there is the risk of steam escaping.

TO TEST WHETHER YOUR UTENSIL IS MICROWAVE SAFE, YOU CAN CONDUCT THE FOLLOWING TEST:

1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup of cold water (250ml) along with the utensil in question.
2. Cook on maximum power for 1 minute (no longer than this).
3. Carefully feel the utensil; if it is warm, do NOT use it for microwave cooking.

Materials that you CAN use in your microwave:

Utensil	Remarks
Browning dish	Follow manufacturer's instructions. The bottom of the browning dish must be at least 3/16^ths inch (5mm) above the turntable. Incorrect usage may cause the turntable to break.
Dinnerware	Microwave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Do not use cracked or chipped dishes.
Glass jars	Always remove lid. Use only to warm food. Most glass jars are not heat resistant and may break.
Glassware	Heat-resistant oven glassware only. Make sure there is no metallic trim. Do not use cracked or chipped dishes.
Oven cooking bags	Follow manufacturer's instructions. Do not close with metal ties. Make slits to let steam escape.
Paper Towels	Use to cover food for reheating and absorbing fat. Use with supervision for short-term cooking only.
Paper Plates and Cups	Use for short-term cooking/warming only. Do not leave oven unattended while cooking.
Parchment	Use as a cover to prevent splattering or a wrap for steaming.
Plastic	Microwave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Should be labelled 'Microwave Safe'. Some plastic containers soften as the food inside gets hot. 'Boiling bags' and tightly closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by the package.
Plastic Wrap / Cling Film	Microwave-safe only. Use to cover food during cooking to retain moisture. Do not allow plastic wrap to touch food.
Thermometers	Microwave-safe only (meat & candy thermometers).
Wax Paper	Use as a cover to prevent splattering and to retain moisture.

Materials that you CAN'T use in your Microwave:

Utensil	Remarks
Aluminium trays & foil	May cause arcing. Transfer food into microwave-safe dish.
Food cartons with metal handles	May cause arcing. Transfer food into microwave-safe dish.
Metal / metal-trimmed utensils	Metal shields the food from microwave energy. Metal trim may also cause arcing.
Metal twist ties	May cause arcing & could cause a fire in the oven.
Paper bags	May cause a fire in the oven. Always be careful with paper.
Plastic foam	Plastic foam may melt or contaminate the liquid inside when exposed to high temperatures.
Wood	Wood will dry out and may split or crack when used in your Microwave.

i Remember - i

You can always check the packaging of utensils to confirm their microwave suitability.

"If in doubt, leave it out!"

Before you start using your Microwave, you may want to set the time on the Clock and Preset times for cooking. Your Microwave operates on a 24-hour clock setting (0:00-23:59).

1. To Set the Clock:

1) Press flash. . The hour will
2) Turn the dial to change the hour.
3) Press . The minutes will flash.
4) Turn nge the minutes.
5) Press to finish setting the clock.

* Note – If you press ‘’, you will exit the clock-setting function.

• Whenever possible, always cook food covered (but not sealed!). Only pastry dishes with crust should be cooked without a cover.
• There are several types of covering suitable for microwave use. Plastic film or glass lids must always be checked to ensure they can be used for microwaving.
• Paper towels, napkins & wax paper are useful loose covers that can prevent 'spitting' and keep moisture in your food.
• If you can't find cooking details for a specific quantity of food, base the cooking time needed on a similar type of food. You should adjust the cooking time accordingly.
• Double quantity = almost double time: half quantity = about half the time. Arrange food carefully. Always place thickest areas towards the outside of the dish.
• Watch the cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and only cook for longer if needed after checking your food. Remember that severely overcooked food can smoke or ignite.

• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Turn large items like roasts at least once.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking, both from top to bottom and from the centre of the dish to the outside.

• Remember that refrigerated food will need longer cooking times. Frozen food will require even more time to cook.
• Some soft vegetables (eg. cauliflower, carrots, peas) should be cooked with a little water. However, mushrooms, tomatoes and peppers should be cooked without water. Try to cut larger vegetables into even-sized pieces. Always cook vegetables in a covered container and stir them from time to time.
• Cook fatty pieces of meat (eg, pork, poultry) on a non metallic grid or upside-down saucer inside a suitable container. This will allow the fat to drain away. Cook leaner types of meat on a browning skillet. Be sure to turn once during the cooking time.
• Ready meals – always make sure that these are marked as being suitable for microwaving. Follow the instructions as printed on the container such as removing the foil lid or pricking the plastic film.

Remember that you will need to allow for standing time after you take your food from your Microwave Oven. Denser foods will take longer to stand to cool properly.
