Food safety Pe
¢ Do not heat food in a can in the microwave oven.
Always remove the food to a suitable container.
+ Deep fat frying should not be done in the microwave
oven, because the fat temperature cannot be
controlled, hazardous situations can result.
* Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven,
but only in special packages or utensils designed
specifically for this purpose. This cooking operation
should never be unattended.
* Pierce foods with non-porous skins or membranes
to prevent steam build-up and bursting. Apples,
potatoes, chicken livers, and egg yolks are examples
of items that should be pierced.
WARNING: When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces
and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating
the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden
boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility
the following steps should be taken:
1, Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
2. Do not overheat.
3. Stir 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.
+
Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers - for example, closed glass jars - may
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
Occasionally, poached eggs may explode during
cooking. Always pierce the yolk, then cover and
allow the standing time of one minute before
removing cover.
Keep these instructions
: i . :
1. The glass viewing window may break if water is
spilled on it during grilling.
2. Be sure to use an oven glove when loading and
unloading the oven. Containers get very hot in the
oven, so be careful not to burn yourself. The turn-
table and metal rack also get very hot so be sure to
use an oven glove when handling them.

3. Do not touch the inner or outer viewing window
with metal components when loading or unloading
the oven. The inside of the door and oven get very
hot so take care when attending food in the oven.
4. Do not put the turntable or containers in cold water
or try to cool them quickly after use.
5, Do not place items on top of the cabinet. The top of
the cabinet gets very hot, so anything placed on it
may be damaged by the heat.
NOTE: It is quite normal for steam to be emitted
around the door, or for misting to occur on the door,
or even for water droplets to appear below the door
during the cooking cycle. This is merely condensation
from the heat of the food and does not affect the safety
of your oven. The door is not intended to seal the oven
cavity completely.
NOTE:
* Do not force the turntable to rotate by hand. This
may cause malfunctioning.
+ Arcing in the oven during microwave operation
usually occurs from use of metallic utensils.
Continuous arcing, however, can damage the unit.
Stop the programme and check the utensil.
« Care should be taken not to obstruct any air vents
located on the top, rear, side and bottom of the oven.
Do not use this oven for commercial purposes.
This oven is made for domestic use only.
| Heatwave®
_
Heatwave® is an advanced and revolutionary micro-
wave distribution system, ensuring even and uniform
cooking, defrosting and reheating.
Technically, this is achieved by re-positioning the
microwave-generating component - the magnetron —
to feed directly into the cavity. The results is that
microwaves spread smoothly to reach all parts of the
cavity.
Heatwave ensures an even heat distribution across
and throughout the food.
