 PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in
harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety
interlocks.

(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue
to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

(c) WARNING : If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been
repaired by a trained person : (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches(broken or loosened), (3) door
seals and sealing surfaces.

(d) WARNING : It is hazardous for anyone other than a trained person to carry out any service or repair
operation which involves the removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy.

 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high 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. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.

12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of ignition.

13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked before
consumption, in order to avoid burns.

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.

15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode.

16. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you leave grease
or fat anywhere in the cavity it may overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the oven.

17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating and fire.

18. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the
container.

GENERAL COOKING HINTS

1. When cook a roast with an excess amount of drippings, it is helpful to remove the drippings at turnover time to
prevent spattering.
2. Prick the meats, fish or poultry with a fork to prevent bursting.
Steam builds up pressure in meats, fish or poultry which are tightly covered by a skin or membrane.
3. Reduce suggested cooking times. It is always better to undercook foods rather than to overcook them.
If a range of times is stated in a recipe, cook the minumum suggested time, check for doneness, and then cook
slightly longer if necessary.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q: I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food in it. is it damaged?
A: We do not recommend to operating the microwave oven without any food. However, running the oven empty for a
SHORT time will not damage the oven.

Q: Can I open the door when the oven is operating?

A: The door can be opened anytime durng the oven operation. Microwave energy will be instantly switched off and
the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.

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: My microwave oven causes interference with my TV. is this normal?

A: Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar to
the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem
with your oven.

Q: How can we know whether the oven is operating or not?

A: Oven is operating only when the door is closed.
The operation of fan motor is same as the oven's operating.
Q: Why does my oven light dim?
A: When cooking with DEF. power, the oven must cycle to obtain the selected power levels. The oven light, dims and
clicking noises can be heard when the oven cycles.

Q: When is the oven light on and off?

A: The oven light is on during the cooking time.

Q: Why does steam accumulate on the oven door?

A: During cooking, steam is given off from the food. Most of the steam is removed from the oven by the air which circulates in
the oven cavity.
However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces such as the oven door. This is normal.

Q: Sometimes warm air comes from the oven vents. Why?

A: The heat given off from the cooking food warms the air in the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out of the oven by the air
flow pattern in the oven. There are no microwave in the air. The oven vents should never be blocked during cooking.

Q: Why does the smoke come out of the exhaust vent at the back of oven?
A: It is normal for smoke to come out of the vents during cooking. Smoke may be produced when food is overcooked.
