Safety Precautions
•
To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic
spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after
heating.
Reason:
During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed; this
means that eruptive boiling can start after the container is removed
from the oven. You may scald yourself.
•
In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions:
•
Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
•
Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
•
Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.
•
NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the
top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with
narrow necks may also explode if overheated.
•
ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to the
baby.
•
NEVER heat a baby's bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if
overheated.
9.
Be careful not to damage the power cable.
•
Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power cable
away from heated surfaces.
•
Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.
10.
Stand at arm's length from the oven when opening the door.
Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
11.
Keep the inside of the oven clean.
Reason:
Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause
paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12.
You may notice a "Clicking" sound during operation(especially when the oven is in
defrosting).
Reason:
This sound is normal when the electrical power output is changing.
13.
When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut off
automatically for safety. You can operate the oven normally after letting it stand for
over 30 minutes.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSRTUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is being
heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible mate-
rials.
IMPORTANT
Young children or infirm persons should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the
microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it
is in use. Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the
oven.
Installing Your Microwave Oven
Place the oven on a flat, level surface that strong
enough to safely bear the weight of the oven.
1.
When you install your oven, make sure there is adequate
10cm
20cm
above
behind
ventilation for your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4 inches)
of space behind, and on the sides of the oven and 20 cm (8
inches) of space above.
10cm
on the side
2.
Remove all packing materials inside the oven.
Install the roller ring and turntable.
Check that the turntable rotates freely.
✽
Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and automatically
switch itself off. It will remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently.
✽
For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 220 Volt, 50Hz, AC
earthed socket. If the power cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.
✽
Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings like next
to a traditional oven or radiator. The power supply specifications of the
oven must be respected and any extension cable used must be of the
same standard as the power cable supplied with the oven. Wipe the
interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using your microwave
oven for the first time.
How a Microwave Oven Works
Cooking Principle
1.
The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the
turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2.
The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a
depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues
as the heat is dissipated within the food.
3.
Cooking times vary according to the container used
and the properties of the food:
•
•
•
☛
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues
even when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified
in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
•
Even cooking of the food right to the centre
•
The same temperature throughout the food
