About your microwave oven

The microwave power output of your oven is 750 - 800
watts.
Because the temperature in a microwave oven is relatively
cool (unlike a normal oven) you have to remember that the
food can be extremely hot. Always take precautions when
handling containers.
Menu
Your oven has 8 Auto Cook menu options. These allow you
to automate the cooking of a range of standard foods for
greater convenience.
Radio Interference:
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference
to your radio, TV or similar equipment. When there is
interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the
following measures:
• Clean the door and sealing surface of the oven.
• Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
• Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the
receiver.
• Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.

Suitable and unsuitable containers

Use heat resistant porcelain, glass or plastic containers
made for microwave ovens, otherwise there is a risk of
shrinking, deforming or burning. Metal containers, or
containers having metal decoration or trim are not suitable
for use with your microwave oven.
Avoid containers which narrow at the top as these may
cause the contents to erupt when removed from the oven.
Microwave containers and wraps designed for microwave
ovens are widely available. Plastic films should not touch
food as they may gas, melt or break down when hot and
contaminate food.
Wax paper, oven cooking bags, parchment paper and
white microwave paper towels are safe for microwave use.
Wooden objects may catch fire, so avoid their use.
Do not use aluminium foil for microwave cooking unless
the recipe requires it. Keep foil at least 25 mm away from
the oven walls. Metal skewers, ties, etc. should be removed
from food before cooking.
Some basic guidelines are given in the table below.
