products such as whole eggs and sealed containers; for example, closed glass jars, may
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook, or dry
food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.
As with any appliance, close supervision is necessary when used by children.
Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has
been damaged or dropped.
This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact the nearest authorized
service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
Do not cover or block any openings on the appliance.
Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water; for example, near a kitchen
sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool and the like.
Do not immerse cord or plug in water nor allow them to get wet.
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter where the microwave oven is located.
Either-(a) When cleaning door surfaces and oven that comes together on closing the door, use only
mild, non-abrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth; or when separate cleaning

are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
c. If materials inside the oven should ignite, KEEP OVEN DOOR CLOSED, turn oven off, and
disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
d. Do not use the oven cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or
food in the cavity when not in use.
Do not heat any type of baby bottles or baby food containers. Uneven heating may occur and could
cause personal injury.
Avoid heating small-necked containers such as syrup bottles.
Avoid using corrosive and vapors, such as sulfide and chloride.
Liquids heated in certain shaped containers (especially cylindrical-shaped containers) may become
overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding
ingredients (instant coffee, etc.) resulting in harm to the oven and possible injury. In all containers, for
best results, stir the liquid several times before heating. Always stir liquid several times between

Shape of foods: Microwaves penetrate only about
1 inch (2.5 cm) into food; the interior portion of thick
food is cooked as the heat generated on the
outside travels inward. In other words, only the outer
edge of any food is actually cooked by microwave

lightly in their own fat.
Foods that are cooked for a shorter period of time
may be brushed with a browning sauce to achieve an
appetizing color. The most commonIy used
browning sauces are Worcestershire sauce, soya
sauce and barbecue sauce. Since relatively small
amounts of browning sauces are added to foods, the
original flavors of recipes are not altered.
Covering: A cover traps heat and steam which
causes food to cook more quickly. You may either
use a lid or microwave clingfilm with the corners
folded back to prevent splitting.
Covering with greaseproof paper: Greaseproofing

cut up chicken and chops.
Placing thicker portions facing outwards: Since
microwaves are attracted to the outside portion of
foods, it makes sense to place thicker portions of
meat, poultry and fish to the outer edge of the baking
dish. This way, thicker portions will receive the most
microwave energy and food will cook evenly.
Shielding: Strips of aluminum foil, which block
microwaves, are sometimes placed over the corners
or edges of square and rectangular foods to prevent
those portions from overcooking. Never use too much
foil and make sure the foil is tightly secured to the
dish or it may cause 'arcing' in the oven.
Elevating: Thick or dense foods are often elevated
so that microwaves can be absorbed by the
underside and center of the food.
Piercing:

are
microwave oven, it is necessary to test food
frequently. Some foods are left in the microwave until
completely cooked, but most foods, including meats
and poultry, are removed from the oven while still
slightly undercooked and allowed to finish cooking
during standing time. The internal temperature of
foods will rise between 5F°(3°C) and 15°F (8°C)
during standing time.
Standing time: Foods are often allowed to stand for
3 to 10 minutes after being removed from the
microwave oven. Usually foods are covered
during standing time to retain heat unless they are
supposed to be dry in texture (some cakes and
biscuits, for example). Standing allows food to finish
cooking and also helps flavors blend and develop.
