G R O U N D I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, the grounding plug reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. WARNING:

Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. WARNING:

Do not cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord under any circumstances. 6 I N S T A L L A T I O N G U I D E 1. Examine the oven after unpacking.

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. 6 7 It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher. The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent water or window cleaner and dry. The roller guide may be washed in mild sudsy water. 1 2 Turn the oven off before cleaning. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended. 3 The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings. 4 5 If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on Control Panel. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit. Glass Tray Roller Guide ROLLER GUIDE 1 The ROLLER GUIDE and oven floor should be cleaned frequently to prevent excessive noise. 2 The ROLLER GUIDE MUST ALWAYS be used for cooking together with the Glass Tray. GLASS TRAY 1 2 3 DO NOT operate the oven without the Glass Tray in place. DO NOT use any other Glass Tray with this oven. If Glass Tray is hot, ALLOW TO COOL before cleaning or placing it in water. 4 DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray.

* The oven doesnt work :

1. Check that the power cord is securely plugged in. 2. Check that the door is firmly closed. 3. Check that the cooking time is set. 4. Check for a blown circuit fuse or tripped main circuit breaker in your house.

* Sparking in the cavity;

1. Check utensils. Metal containers or dishes with metal trim should not be used. 2. Check that metal skewers or foil does not touch the interior walls. CARE AND CLEANINg Although your oven is provided with safety features, it is important to observe the following:

4. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except a properly competent ser vice technician. 5. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed;

6. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. 1. It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. 2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads. 3. When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on an opened door or any load could cause the oven to fall forward to cause injury and also damage to the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired by a competent service technician. It is particularly important that the oven closes properly and that there is no damage to the:

i) Door(bent) ii) Hinges and Hookes(broken or loosened) iii) Door seals and sealing surfaces. 22 Q U E S T I O N S A N D A N S W E R S

* Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. Is it damaged?

* A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not d a m a g e t h e o v e n . H o w e v e r , i t i s n o t recommended.

* Q : What does standing time mean?

* A : Standing time means that food should be removed from the oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.

* Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or

* Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as roller guide removed?

* A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used in the oven before cooking.

* Q : Can I open the door whe n th e oven is operating?

* A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.

* Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after cooking?

* A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal. It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven surface.

* Q : Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door?

* A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through. They do not let microwave energy pass through.

* Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?

* A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs without piercing their shells.

* Q : Why is this standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed?

* A : Standing time is very important. With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods 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. the microwave cooking guide says?

* A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure youve followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions 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 : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty?

* A : Yes. Never run it empty.

* Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?

* A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the turntable.

* Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?

* A : Ye s. T h e t u r n ta bl e ro ta te s c l o ck w i s e o r counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle begins.

* Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven?

How do I get the best results?

* A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following manufactures guidelines. Do not use regular paper bags. Use the listening test by stopping the oven as soon as the popping slows to a pop every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware. 23 C O O K I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S UTENSIL gUIDE Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. 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 choosing the utensil. If the utensil is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various utensil and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

: Recommended use

: Limited Use

: Not Recommended C O M M E N T S Can be used in small quantities to protect areas against overcooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too much foil is used. Do not preheat for more than 8 minutes. Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim. Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes. Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt. May catch fire. May cause arcing. Can be used, unless decorated with a metal trim. Can be used to warm foods or liquids. Delicate glass may break or crack if heated suddenly. Must remove the lid. Suitable for warming only. May cause arcing or fire. For short cooking times and warming. Also to absorb excess moisture. May cause arcing. Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic. Some other plastics may warp or discolour at high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic. Can be used to retain moisture. Should not touch the food. Take care when removing the film as hot steam will escape. Only if boilable or oven-proof. Should not be airtight. Prick with a fork, if necessary. Can be used to retain moisture and prevent spattering. 24 C O O K I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY general use Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks. Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads. Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door. This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven. Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken. Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven. Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire. Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires. Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven. food Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire. Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. 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. Do not leave the oven unattended while popping popcorn. Do not pop popcorn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper bag. Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly on the oven tray. Place the package on a microwave safe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating and cracking the oven tray. Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers suggested popping time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle. Remove with caution and use pot holders. ARCINg If you see arcing, open the door and correct the problem. Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. Arcing is caused by:

Metal or foil touching the side of the oven. Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas). Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes, in the microwave. Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave. 25 C O O K I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S MICROWAVINg PRINCIPLES Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in World War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources. Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones. HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD Oven Cavity Magnetron Turntable Waveguide In a microwave oven, electricity is converted into microwave by the MAGNETRON. TRANSMISSION REFLECTION ABSORPTION The microwaves bounce off the metal walls and the metal door screen. Then they pass through the cooking containers to be a b s o r b e d b y t h e w a t e r molecules in the food, all foods contain water to a more or lesser extent. Microwave Water Molecule Absorption Vibration The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, and foods high in these will cook more quickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of 1 - 2 inches(4-5cm) and as heat spreads through the food by conduction, just as in a traditional oven, the food cooks from the outside inwards.

Wrap meat joints and jacket potatoes in aluminium foil while standing. Meat joints need approx. 10-15 minutes, jacket potatoes 5 minutes. Other foods such as plated meal, vegetables, fish etc require 2-5 minutes standing. After defrosting food, standing time should also be allowed. If food is not cooked after standing time, return to the oven and cook for additional time. MoistuRe content Many fresh foods e.g. vegetables and fruit, vary in their moisture content throughout the season, particularly jacket potatoes. For this reason cooking times may have to be adjusted. Dry ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dry out during storage so cooking times may differ. staRting teMPeRatuRe The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Food from a fridge takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature. liQuids All liquids must be stirred before and during heating. Water especially must be stirred before and during heating, to avoid eruption. Do not heat liquids that have previously been boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT. tuRning & stiRRing Some foods require stirring during cooking. Meat and poultry should be turned after half the cooking time. aRRanging Individual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, should be placed on a dish so that the thicker parts are towards the outside. density Porous airy foods heat more quickly than dense heavy foods. Quantity Small quantities cook faster than large quantities, also small meals will reheat more quickly than large portions. cling filM Cling film helps keep the food moist and the trapped steam assists in speeding up cooking times. Pierce before cooking to allow excess steam to escape. Always take care when removing cling film from a dish as the build-up of steam will be very hot. shaPe Even shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better by microwave when in a round container rather than square. sPacing Foods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart. NEVER pile foods on top of each other. PieRcing The skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build up during cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin should be peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to escape. Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc, will all need to be pierced before cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS. coveRing Cover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish, vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry items. 27 C O O K I N G I N S T R U C T I O N S DEFROSTINg gUIDE Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow cooking to take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe. Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down. Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down. The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block. After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the food. You may wish to turn over, break apar t, rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food. During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the food over. At this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the techniques listed below for optimum defrost results. Then, close oven door, touch the START pad to complete defrosting. When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven ver y briefly, or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas. Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool water until defrosted Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey breasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops. Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops, hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood pieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef. Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect thin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings. To prevent arcing, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door. Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portions should be removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g). cooking chart I T E M P O W E R L E v E L C O O K I N G T I M E P E R L B . / 4 5 0 G S P E C I A L I N S T R U C T I O N MEAT Beef joint - Rare

When heating pre-packaged ready-cooked foods, always follow the pack instructions carefully. If you freeze foods which were bought from the fresh or chilled counters, remember that they should be thoroughly thawed before following the heating instructions on the packed. Its worth putting a note on them so that other members of the household will remember too. Remember metal ties and transfer food from foil containers before reheating. Chilled(refrigerated) food takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature (such as just-cooled food or food from the store cupboard). All foods should be reheated using full microwave power.
