The oven cannot be operated with the door open due to the safety
interlocks built in the door mechanism which switch off cooking functions when
the door is opened. Operating the oven with the door open could result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to tamper with the
door mechanism.
Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow
soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the
oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the (1) door(bent), (2)
hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified
personnel.
WARNING
- When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your
microwave oven, delayed eruptive boiling can occur without evidence of
bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To
prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken.
- Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
- Do not overheat.
- Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway
through the heating time.
- After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time. Stir or shake the
contents (especially feeding bottles and baby foods) and carefully check
the temperature before use.
- If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until
it has been repaired by a competent person.
- It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any
service or repair that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection
against exposure to microwave energy.
- Liquids or other foods must not be heated in a sealed container since they
are liable to explode.
- Only allow children to use the oven without supervision 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.
- This appliance is intended for domestic use only, any other use may
invalidate the warranty and might be dangerous.

For best results and more enjoyable cooking, please read these
comments thoroughly.
For Best Results:
1. When determining the time for a particular food, begin by using minimum
time and checking condition occasionally. It is easy to overcook food
because microwaves cook very quickly.
2. Small quantities of food or foods with low water content may dry out and
become hard if cooked too long.
Defrosting Frozen Food:
1. Foods that have been frozen can be place directly in the oven for thawing.
(Be certain to remove any metallic ties or wraps).
2. Defrost according to the Defrosting instructions found in this manual.
3. For areas of the food thawing faster than others, cover with small pieces of
aluminium foil. This helps slow down or stop the defrosting process.
4. Some foods should not be completely thawed before cooking. For example,
fish cooks so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin cooking while still
slightly frozen.
5. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the cooking time in some
recipes, depending on the starting temperature of the food.

NOTE:
Air from the vent may become warm during cooking.
Browning:
There are a few foods which are not cooked long enough in the microwave
oven to brown and may need additional colour.
Coatings such as paprika and browning agents such as Worcestershire sauce
may be used on chops, meat patties or chicken pieces.
Roasts, poultry or ham, cooked for 10-15 minutes or longer, will brown
without extra additives.

build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even
after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat,
large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without
overcooking the outside.
Q. Why does my oven not always cook fast as the microwave cooking guide
says?
A. Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions
exactly and to see what might cause variations in cooking times. Cooking
guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent overcooking
the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations
in the size, shape and weights could require longer cooking time. Use your
own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether
the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional
cooker.
Q. Why do sparks and crackling (arcing) occur in the oven?
A. There may be several reasons why sparks and crackling (arcing) within the
cavity happens.
* You have left a fork or other metal utensils in the oven.
* You are using dishes with metal parts or trim (silver or gold).
* You are using a large amount of metal foil.
* You are using a metal twist tie.

Normal
Microwave oven interfering
TV reception
Radio and TV reception may be affected
when the microwave oven is operating. It is
similar to the interference of small electrical
appliances, like mixer, vacuum cleaner and
electric fan. It is normal.
Dim oven light In low power microwave cooking, the oven
light may become dim. It is normal.
Steam accumulating on door,
hot air out of vents
In cooking, steam may come out of food.
Most will escape from the vents. But some
may accumulate on a cool place like the
oven door. It is normal.
Oven started accidentally
with no food in.
It is forbidden to run the unit without any
food inside. It is very dangerous.
