About this microwave oven
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio
waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short
(less than 12.5 centimetres). Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but only cause
water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces the heat that cooks the food. This
is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the
oven stay much cooler. The microwaves do not stay in the air or in the food when you open
the microwave oven door.
The microwave oven will work using an ordinary household electrical socket. Inside the
microwave oven is the magnetron, which turns the electrical energy into microwaves.
Microwaves cannot go through metal, so the inside of the oven is lined with metal. The door
is lined with a fine metal mesh which stops microwaves getting through. This means that
when the microwave oven door is shut, there is no possibility that microwaves can be
released. This is why the microwave oven has been made so that it will not work when the
door is open.
Before you use your microwave oven
1
2
Remove all the packaging. Do not remove the small piece of card from the right hand
side of the cavity wall. This is called a wave-guide cover and allows the microwaves to
pass through to cook the food.
Check the oven after unpacking for any visual damage such as:
A misaligned door
Damage to the door
Dents or holes in the door window and screen
Dents in the inside
If you can see any damage do not use the oven

Safety instructions
Warning: this oven must be positioned so that the plug is accessible and the plug socket is
within easy reach of the power cord.
Warning: 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.
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance, and the
appliance and cable should be kept completely out of reach of young children.
This appliance is not designed for use by children, or persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, and should not be used by such persons unless they can
do so safely. Where necessary, such persons (or anyone with lack of experience or
knowledge) should first be given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Warning: it is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
Warning: if the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has
been repaired by a competent person. The door seals are located around the window on the
inside of the door. These seals are not airtight, although no microwaves can be released; it is
normal for small amounts of air or steam to escape when the oven is in use.
Warning: liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers, as they are liable to
explode.
Do not operate the microwave if damaged or after it malfunctions. In the event the
supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by a qualified service engineer, with a
suitably approved part.
Keep the microwave, cable and plug dry, never immerse in water.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the
possibility of ignition
Only use the oven for preparing food. For example do not use for drying clothes, paper
or any other non-food items, or for sterilising purposes.
To avoid damaging the oven, do not use the oven when the cavity is empty. The oven
may be empty (used as a timer) with the power set to zero – see page 8.
Do not store anything in the oven, such as papers, cookbooks and so on.
Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken
livers, ready meals and so on without piercing them several times with a fork.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave
ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has ended.
Never cover the air vents or put any objects into the openings on the outer case.
Never remove parts from the oven such as the feet, screws and so on.
Only use utensils recommended in these instructions – see page 12.
Do not try to deep-fry foods in this oven.
Heat from the contents of a container may be transmitted to the container itself, so
please be careful when removing it from the oven. Please remember that the food or
liquid inside will be releasing some steam or will be spitting. Never cover any container
fully, always leave a gap for steam to escape.
Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. This
is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensil. You
may need oven gloves to handle the utensil.
In order to avoid burns, the contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred
or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption.

Always test the temperature of cooked food, never eat or drink food or liquid straight from
the oven, allow it to stand for a few minutes and stir to distribute the heat evenly.
Microwave heating of beverages can result delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must
be taken when handling the container.
Food containing a mixture of fat and water (for example, stock) should stand for 30 to 60
seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is to allow the mixture to settle and
to prevent it from bubbling when a spoon is placed in it, or a stock cube is added.
When heating or cooking food or liquid, remember that there are certain foods (such as
Christmas puddings, jam and mincemeat), which heat up very quickly.
When heating or cooking foods that contain a lot of fat or sugar, do not use plastic
containers.
Always have the glass tray and turntable support in place when using the oven.
Do not cook food directly on the glass tray. Put food on a suitable plate or in a bowl
before putting it in the oven.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
Do not overcook food
Do not leave the microwave oven unattended while you are using it
Remove wire twist-ties from bags before putting the bag in the oven
If materials inside the oven catch fire, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off at the
wall switch, or shut the power off at the fuse or circuit-breaker panel
FOOD SAFETY
Do not cook raw meat or raw shellfish in a microwave, due to the possibility for uneven
heating.
Do not use the microwave oven for home canning or bottling. Improperly canned or
bottle foods may spoil and be dangerous to eat.
Follow cooking instructions on food packaging and always check the temperature of food
before serving.
Microwave oven installation
Warning: do not install the oven over a cooker or other heat producing appliance. This will
damage the oven. The oven must be placed away from high temperatures and steam.

Cleaning and care
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
condition. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
Before you clean the microwave oven, turn it off and unplug it.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food or liquids stick to the oven walls, wipe
witha damp cloth. We recommend that you do not use harsh detergent or abrasives.
On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover. Microwaves are passed
through this cover to enable your food to cook. It is important that the wave guide
cover is kept clean at all times. To do this wipe with mild detergent and water, then
dry. Do not remove the waveguide cover.
You should clean the outside of the oven with a damp cloth and polish dry with a soft
dry cloth. Do not allow water to seep into the ventilation openings.
Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts
frequently with a damp cloth to remove any spills or spatters. Do not use an abrasive
cleaner.
Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not
use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the control panel.
If steam builds up inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.
This may happen when the microwave oven is used in humid conditions.
If the inside of the oven smells, put a cup of water with the juice and the skin of one
lemon in a deep microwave bowl. Microwave it for three minutes, wipe the cavity walls
thoroughly and then dry a soft cloth.
Regularly clean the turntable support and oven floor. Simply wipe the bottom surface of
the oven with mild detergents and water, and then dry. You can wash the turntable
support in soapy water. Check that it is correctly fitted after cleaning.
Regularly remove the glass tray to clean it, and wash in warm soapy water.
Do not remove the waveguide cover on the inside wall of the cavity.

Problem solving
The microwave oven may cause interference to your radio, TV or similar equipment. If it does,
you can get rid of the interference by moving the radio, TV or equipment as far away from
your microwave oven as possible.
If the oven doesn’t work, if the display does not appear or if the display has disappeared
Make sure the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the socket,
wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely.
Check the premises for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these
seem to be working properly, test the socket with another appliance.
If the microwave power will not work
Make sure the door is securely closed. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow
into the oven.
Important utensil information
Use only cookware that is approved to be used in a microwave oven.
Do not use metal pans or dishes with metal handles.
Do not use anything with a metal trim.
Do not use paper covered wire twist-ties on plastic bags.
Do not use melamine dishes as they contain a material, which will absorb microwave
energy. This may cause the dishes to crack or burn, and will slow down the cooking
speed.
Do not cook using a container with a restricted opening, such as bottles, as they may
explode.
Do not heat baby bottles with the teat left on and remove the teat if replacing the bottle
back into the oven.
Only use thermometers that are approved for microwave ovens.
Do not use the microwave oven for heating utensils.
