About this microwave oven

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres).

Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but only cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the oven stay much cooler. The microwaves do not stay in the air or in the food when you open the microwave oven door.

The microwave oven will work using an ordinary household electrical socket. Inside the microwave oven is the magnetron, which turns the electrical energy into microwaves.

Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the oven is lined with metal. The door is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through. This means that when the microwave oven door is shut, there is no possibility that microwaves can be released. This is why the microwave oven has been made so that it will not work when the door is open.



13

Unpacking the microwave

Before you use your microwave oven

1. Remove all the packaging. Do not remove the small piece of card from the right hand side of the cavity wall. This is called a wave-guide cover and allows the microwaves to pass through to cook the food.

Please ensure you keep this cover clean at all times.

2. Check the oven after unpacking for any visual damage such as:

● A misaligned door

● Damage to the door

● Dents or holes in the door window and screen

● Dents in the inside

● If you can see any damage do not use the oven

This microwave oven weighs approximately 20kg so you must put it on a horizontal surface that is strong enough to support this weight.

The oven must be placed away from high temperatures and steam.

Do not put anything on the top of the microwave oven.



14

Cleaning and care

• Before you clean the oven, turn it off and unplug it.

• Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food or liquids stick to the oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. We recommend that you do not use harsh detergent or abrasives.

• On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover, microwaves are passed through this to enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave guide cover is kept clean at all times. To do this wipe with mild detergent and water, then dry.

• You should clean the outside of the oven with a damp cloth. Don’t allow water to seep into the ventilation openings.

• Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the control panel.

• If steam builds up inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may happen when the microwave oven is used in humid conditions.

• Regularly remove the glass turntable to clean it, and wash it in warm soapy water. Regularly clean the turntable support and oven floor.

Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and water, then dry. You can wash the turntable support in mild soapy water.

• When removing the turntable support of the oven, make sure you put it back properly.

• If the inside of the oven smells, put a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a deep microwave bowl. Microwave it for three minutes, wipe thoroughly and then dry with a soft cloth.

• Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition, especially if liquid is left under the turntable, could lead to deterioration of the surface that will adversely affect the life of the appliance that may result in a hazardous condition.

Important utensil information

Problems solving & plug

Problem solving

The microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment. If it does, you can get rid of the interference by moving the radio, TV or equipment as far away from your microwave oven as possible.

If the oven doesn’t work -

• Make sure the mains plug is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the socket, wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely.

• Check the premises for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be working properly, test the socket with another appliance that you know works.

If the microwave power will not work –

• Check to see whether the timer is set, or the child lock is on.

• Make sure the door is securely closed. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow into the oven

Plug

If your appliance is supplied with a non-rewireable plug fitted to the mains lead you will find that it incorporates a fuse, the value of which is indicated either on the base of the plug or on the fuse carrier.

Should the fuse need replacing, you must use an ASTA approved fuse

(conforming to BS1362) of the same rating.

If the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained from an electrical supplier.

If you need to remove the plug, cut it from the mains lead and dispose of it. Never attempt to re-use this plug or insert it into a socket outlet, as there is a very great risk of an electric shock.
