The user must understand that common sense, caution and care are factors that cannot be integrated into any product. Therefore, these factors shall be ensured by the user/s using and operating this appliance. We are not liable for damages caused during shipping, by incorrect use, voltage fluctuation or the modification or adjustment of any part of the appliance.

To protect against a risk of fire or electric shock, basic precautions shall be taken while using electrical appliances, including the following:

1. Make sure the voltage in your outlet corresponds to the voltage provided on the appliance label and that the socket is properly grounded. The outlet must be installed according to valid safety instructions.
2. Do not operate the oven if the door is damaged, it does not function correctly or the power cord is damaged. All repairs or adjustments including cord replacements shall be performed by a professional service centre! Do not remove the protective cover from the appliance. Risk of electric shock or exposure to microwave energy. Unplug the cord from outlet before repairing. Removing the cover with the cord plugged in can result in the service technician being exposed to microwave energy or being shocked!
3. Protect the appliance against direct contact with water and other liquids, to prevent potential electric shock. Do not immerse cord or plug in water!

TROUBLESHOOTING

Common
The microwave oven interferes with the television reception.	The microwave oven can interfere with the radio and television when operating. It is similar to the interference of small electrical appliances such as the blender, vacuum cleaner and electrical ventilator.
Dimming the oven light	Cooking with low microwave power level may dim the oven light. This effect is normal.
Steam is accumulated on the door, hot air is coming from vents.	Steam can be released from food while cooking. Most of the steam is released through the exhaust vents, though some can accumulate in a cooler place, such as the door. This effect is normal.
The oven was started empty by accident. The oven should not be operated empty. It is very dangerous.

Problem Possible cause Correction
The oven will not start.	The power cable is not firmly plugged in.	Unplug the cord from the outlet. Plug the cord back into the outlet after approximately 10 seconds.
	The fuse burned out or the circuit breaker was tripped.	Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker (repaired by a service technician from our company).
	Problem with the outlet.	Try connecting another electrical appliance into the outlet.
The oven does not heat. The door is not properly closed. Close the door properly.
The turntable makes noises when the microwave oven is operating.	The rotating glass tray or the bottom of the oven are dirty.	Clean the oven according to the instructions stated in chapter “Cleaning.”
