Power supply
This microwave oven requires a power supply of approximately 15 Amperes, 120 Volts, 60 Hz and a
grounded outlet. A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of the user becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the oven.
The Extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
When use 3-pronged plug
When use grounding adaptor, make
sure the receptacle box is fully
grounded.

AUTOMATIC FAN PROTECTION FEATURE
Cooking appliances installed under the oven may,
under some heavy usage conditions, cause
temperatures high enough to overheat some
internal parts of the microwave oven.
To prevent overheating from taking place, the
exhaust fan is designed to automatically turn on if
excessive temperatures occur. Should this
happen, the fan cannot be manually turned off, but
it will automatically turn off when the internal parts
have cooled. The fan may stay on up to
approximately 30 minutes after the range and
microwave oven controls have been turned off.

MICROWAVE UTENSILS
UTENSIL TEST
Dishes that do not absorb microwave energy are best for microwave
cooking. Lock on the label to verify that particular cups, glasses, plates
are indeed suitable, especially paper goods. If you are not sure, try this
utensil test to check.
• Put the empty utensil in the microwave oven.
• Put one cup of water in a glass measure next to the empty utensil.
• Heat on HI for 1 minute.
• After 1 minute the water should be warm but the utensil should not.
If the utensil is warm, it is not suitable for microwave cooking.
Glass, Ceramic and China
Ovenproof glass or ceramic baking dishes are the most used microwave utensils.
Many of these items are readily available in most homes : glass measure, custard cups, mixing bowls,
covered casseroles, pie plates and round or square cake dishes. Ovenproof dinner ware is usually safe to
use in the microwave.
Do not heat or cook in glass jars or bottles.
Do not use dishes with silver, gold, platinum or other metal trim. Arcing may occur and /or the dish may
break.
Do not use delicate or stemmed glassware. Although the glass may be transparent to microwave energy,
heat from the food may cause the glassware to crack.

Plastics
Plastic dishes, cups, mugs and bowls may be used in the oven for short periods of time. None of these
should be used in the oven for prolonged periods because distortion and melting may occur.
Check manufacturer's recommendations concerning microwave safety.
Plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in most recipes if the dish is deep enough to avoid plastic wrap
touching the food. Always vent the wrap by folding back one corner to allow excess steam to escape.
Plastic cooking bags should be slit before cooking so excess steam can escape.
Do not use wire twist ties to close the bag. Wire twist ties can cause arcing which can damage the oven.
Paper
Paper cups, wax paper, napkins, paper towels, and plates may be used for short cooking. Prolonged time
in the oven can cause paper to burn. Do not use recycled paper products, such as brown paper bags.
They contain impurities which may cause arcing and damage the oven.
Metal
Metal utensils should not be used in the oven. Metal reflects microwave energy so foods will not cook so
foods will not cook evenly.
Metal can cause arcing and damage the oven.

COOKING GUIDE
EGGS AND CHEESE
Eggs and cheese are delicate foods requiring care in
microwave cooking. Piercing the yolks of eggs helps to
release steam during cooking. Stirring egg mixtures
frequently helps distribute the heat evenly. Because the
microwave energy cooks so quickly, always check to see
if the eggs are done to your satisfaction after the standing
time. At this time, stir, rearrange or turn over. If needed,
add additional time gradually. To cook only one egg, try a
lower Power setting until you get satisfactory results.
if stirred into a hot mixture. Cheese may not look melted so
always stir before determining if cheese is melted enough.

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 ddor 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 over cook 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 quicky 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 stir liquids before heating. Heated liquids can erupt, if not mixed with air.
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 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.
