Important Note
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
(a) Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with the door open or to tamper with the safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert anything into the safety interlock holes.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven door and front face, or allow food or cleaner residues to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and door sealing surfaces are kept clean by wiping after use with first a damp cloth and then a final wipe with a soft dry cloth.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.
It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
(1) Door, door seals and sealing surfaces
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) Power cable
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly qualified microwave service technician trained by the manufacturer.

Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety precautions are taken.
GB
1.
DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:
• Metallic containers
• Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings
• Skewers, forks, etc.
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.
2.
DO NOT heat:
• Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers. Ex) Baby food jars
• Airtight food. Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.
Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.
3.
DO NOT operate the microwave oven when it is empty.
Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.
Tip: Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times. The water will absorb the microwaves if you accidentally set the oven going when it is empty.
4.
DO NOT cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the oven.
5.
ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from the food to the dish. The dishes are therefore hot.
6.
DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls.
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn skin even after cooking is finished, oven though they do not appear to be so. Keep away from hot spot. Do not allow inflammable materials to come into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down first.
7.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity
• Do not store flammable materials in the oven
• Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags
• Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers
• If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply.
jXZ`z{jniUGGwG]GG{ SGvG^SGYWW[GGXXa\\Ght
Safety Precautions (continued)
GB
8.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
• ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to equalize.
• Stir during heating if necessary and ALWAYS stir after heating.
• To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should stir before, during, and after heating.
• In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions :
* Immerse hand in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
* Cover with 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.
• During microwave heating of beverages, there are results in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
9.
Be careful not to damage the power cable.
• Do not immerse power cable or plug in water and keep 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.
• Clean the inside of the oven right after each use with a mild detergent solution, but let the microwave oven cool down before cleaning in order to avoid injury.
Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause the damage of painting and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12. “Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, especially in defrosting mode.
Reason: When the power output is changing electrically, you may hear that sound. This is normal.
13. If the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will cut off automatically for safety. After standing for over 30 min, you can operate the oven normally.
• Do not worry is the oven continues to work after cooking has finished.
Reason: This product is designed to fan for some minutes, not operating microwave oven(MWO), to cool down the inner electronic parts when the stop button is pressed or the door is opened after finishing cooking in case that the oven operates for some minutes in cooking(MWO, GRILL, CONVECTION, MWO+GRILL, MWO+
CONVECTION). When cooking has finished, the oven will beep and flash “0” four times. The oven will then beep one time per minute.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 material.
WARNING:
Do not use the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a competent person.
WARNING:
It is hazardous for anyone other than a comperent person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
WARNING:
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
WARNING:
Only allow children to use the oven without supervicion when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
WARNING:
Oven casing and door will get hot during convection and combination cooking.
☛
DO NOT operate the microwave oven without the coupler, roller ring and turntable.

How a Microwave Oven Works
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
• Defrost
• Reheat
• Cook
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:
• Quantity and density
• Water content
• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
☛
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

Cookware Guide
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.
Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

MICROWAVES
Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content.
The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food.
COOKING
Cookware for microwave cooking:
Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum effectiveness. Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminum and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers.
Food suitable for microwave cooking:
Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints).
Covering during cooking
To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.
Standing times
After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature to even out within the food.
Cooking Guide for frozen vegetables
Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Cook covered for the minimum time – see table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer.
Stir twice during cooking and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking. Cover during standing time.

REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional ovens and hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20°C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7°C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Check the tables for guidance.
In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example).
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before serving.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken - for future reference.
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety precautions.
29
REHEATING LIQUIDS
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.

DEFROSTING
Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently defrost frozen food in a short period of time.
Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away.
Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain off any liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible. Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm.
If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting.
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand for 20 minutes before continuing.
Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the table below.
Hint: You will obtain more even defrosting results if you defrost smaller pieces of meat, rather than larger joints of meat.
For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to - 20°C, use the following table as a guide.
All frozen food should be defrosted using defrosting power level (180 W).

GRILL
The grill-heating element is located underneath the ceiling of the cavity. It operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable’s rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 4 minutes will make the food brown more quickly.
Cookware for grilling:
Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.
Food suitable for grilling:
Chops, sausages, steaks, hamburgers, bacon and gammon rashers, thin fish portions, sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings.
IMPORTANT REMARK:
Whenever the grill only mode is used, make sure that the grill-heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical position. Please remember that food must be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended.

MICROWAVE + GRILL
This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly.
Cookware for cooking with microwaves + grill
Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.
Food suitable for microwaves + grill cooking:
Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the grill table for further details.
IMPORTANT:
Whenever the combination mode (microwave + grill) is used, make sure that the grill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical position. The food should be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. Otherwise it has to be placed directly on the turntable. Please refer to the instructions in the following chart.
The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
