SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR GENERAL USE
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure top performance
from this oven:
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any
other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the oven.
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking when you cook food sealed in bottles.
6. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface and door. It could result in excessive leakage of
microwave energy.
7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They may contain impurities which could cause sparks
and/or fires when used during cooking.
8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially
packaged and recommended especially for microwave ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a lower
yield than conventional popping; there will be a number of unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless
specified by the manufacturer.
9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc.,
without first piercing them several times with a fork.
10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's directions. (popping time is generally below 3
minutes).
Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it can cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle or may break.
11. Should the microwave oven emit smoke in quantity to indicate a fire, keep the oven door shut, switch the
appliance off and disconnect the mains lead from the outlet.
12. When flammable food containers are used in the oven (e.g. packet popcorn) be sure to check the cooking
process periodically in case fire has occurred.
13. Always stir and/or shake the containers of baby foods prior to testing their temperature and serving the
contents.
14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which has been heated in a microwave oven before you give
it to somebody, especially to children or elderly people. This is important because things which have been
heated in a microwave oven carry on getting hotter even though the microwave oven cooking has
stopped.
1 Door latch - When the door is closed it will automatically lock shut. If the door is opened
while the oven is operating, magnetron will immediately stop operating.
2 Door seal - Door seal maintains the microwave energy within the oven cavity and prevents
microwave leakage.
