plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is
recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and
may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage.
WARNING Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

3. Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
4. Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers.
Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
5. Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of
the dish to the outside.
UTENSILS GUIDE
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the
container and heat the food.
2. Microwave can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments
which may cause sparks and/or fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t
use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.

CLEANING AND CARE
1. Turn off the oven and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe
with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid the use of spray and
other harsh cleaners as they may stain, streak or dull the door surface.
3. The outside surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts
inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
4. 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 abrasive cleaner.
5. Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the
control panel, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.
6. 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 condition. And it is normal.
7. It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy
water or in a dishwasher.
8. The roller ring and oven floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the
bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent. The roller ring may be washed in mild sudsy water or
dishwasher. When removing the roller ring from cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace in the
proper position.
9. Remove odors from your oven by combining a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a
deep microwaveable bowl, microwave for 5 minutes. Wipe thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.
10. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult a dealer to have it replaced.
11. The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed. 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.
12. Please do not dispose this appliance into the domestic rubbish bin, it should be disposed to the
particular disposal center provided by the municipalities.
13. When the microwave ovens have grill function is first used, it may produce slight smoke and smell.
This is a normal phenomenon, because the oven is made of a steel plate coated with lubricating oil,
and the new oven will produce fumes and odor generated by burning the lubricating oil. This
phenomenon will disappear after a period of using.
