manual. Do not use corrosive  
chemicals or vapors in this appliance.  
This type of oven is specifically  
designed to heat, cook, or dry food. It  
is not designed for industrial or  
laboratory use.  
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea  
can be overheated beyond the boiling  
point without appearing to be boiling  
due to surface tension of the liquid.  
Visible bubbling or boiling when the  
container is removed from the  
microwave oven is not always present.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
This appliance must be grounded. In the  
cord set or extension cord should  
be at least as great as the  
electrical rating of the appliance.  
b) The extension cord must be a  
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and  
The longer cord should be  
arranged so that it will not drape  
over the counter top or table top  
where it can be pulled on by  
event of an electrical short circuit,  
grounding reduces risk of electric shock by  
providing an escape wire for the electric  
current. The 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  
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

Notes:  
The electrical requirements are a 120 volt  
60 Hz, AC only, 15 amp. It is recommended  
that a separate circuit serving only the oven  
be provided. The oven is equipped with a  
3-prong grounding plug. It must be plugged  
into a wall receptacle that is properly  
installed and grounded.  
1. If you have any questions about the  
grounding or electrical instructions,  
consult  
a
qualified electrician or  
service person.  
2. Neither Galanz nor the dealer can  
accept any liability for damage to the  
oven or personal injury resulting from  
failure to observe the electrical  
connection procedures.  
Power Supply Cord  
1. A short power supply cord is provided  
to reduce the risks resulting from  
becoming entangled in or tripping over  
a longer cord.  
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords  
are available and may be used if care  
is exercised in their use.  
Radio or TV Interference  
Should there be any interference caused by  
the microwave oven to your radio or TV,  
check that the microwave oven is on a  
different circuit, relocated the radio or TV as  
far away from the oven as feasible or check  
position and signal of receiving antenna.  
3. If long cord or extension cord is used

·Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes  
Use for heating or cooking.  
· Paper plates and cups Use for  
short-term heating at low temperatures.  
Do not use recycled paper, which may  
contain metal and could ignite.  
· Microwave browning dish Use to  
brown the exterior of small items such as  
steaks,  
chops, or pancakes. Follow  
the directions provided with your  
browning dish.  
· Microwaveable plastic wrap Use to  
retain steam. Leave a small opening for  
some steam to escape and avoid placing  
it directly on the food.

on microwave food once the food has  
been removed from the oven.  
Limited Use  
·Aluminum foil Use narrow strips of foil  
to prevent overcooking of exposed areas.  
Using too much foil can damage your  
oven, so be careful.  
·Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware —  
Use these if they are labeled “Microwave  
Safe”.  
If they are not labeled, test them to make  
sure they can be used safely.  
·Glass jars and bottles Regular glass is  
too thin to be used in a microwave. It can  
shatter and cause damage and injury.  
·Paper bags These are a fire hazard,  
except for popcorn bags that are  
designed for microwave use.  
·Styrofoam plates and cups These can  
melt and leave an unhealthy residue on  
food.  
·Plastic storage and food containers —  
Containers such as margarine tubs can  
melt in the microwave.  
·Plastic Use only if labeled “Microwave  
Safe”. Other plastics can melt.  
·Straw, wicker, and wood Use only for  
short-term heating, such as warming  
dinner rolls for a few seconds. Baskets  
and bowls may be flammable.  
·Metal utensils These can damage your  
oven. Remove all metal before cooking.  
Note: Should you wish to check if a dish is  
safe for microwaving, place the empty dish  
in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30  
seconds. A dish which becomes very hot  
should not be used.  
Not Recommended  
COOKING TECHNIQUES  
Your microwave makes cooking easier than  
conventional cooking, provided you keep  
these considerations in mind:  
your oven.  
Turning  
Turn foods over midway through cooking to  
expose all parts to microwave energy. This  
is especially important with large foods such  
as roasts.  
Stirring  
Stir foods such as casseroles and  
vegetables while cooking to distribute heat  
evenly. Food at the outside of the dish  
absorbs more energy and heats more  
quickly, so stir from the outside to the center.  
The oven will turn off when you open the  
door to stir your food.  
Standing  
Foods cooked in the microwave build up  
internal heat and continue to cook for a few  
minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand  
to complete cooking, especially foods such  
as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts  
need this time to complete cooking in the  
center without overcooking the outer areas.  
All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate,  
should be shaken or stirred when cooking is  
complete. Let liquids stand a moment  
before serving. When heating baby food,  
stir well at removal and test the temperature  
before serving.  
Arrangement  
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as  
chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker,  
meatier parts toward the outside of the  
turntable where they receive more  
microwave energy. To prevent overcooking,  
place delicate areas, such as asparagus  
tips, toward the center of the turntable.  
Shielding  
Adding moisture  
Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum  
foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need  
shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends  
of poultry legs, and corners of square  
baking dishes. Use only small amounts of  
aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage  
Microwave energy is attracted to water  
molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture  
content should be covered or allowed to  
stand so that the heat disperses evenly.  
Add a small amount of water to dry food to  
help it cook.

BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE  
If the oven fails to operate:  
A) Check to ensure that the oven is plugged  
in securely. If it is not, remove the plug  
from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and  
plug it in again securely.  
B) Check for a blown circuit fuse or a  
tripped main circuit breaker. If these  
seem to be operating properly, test the  
outlet with another appliance.  
C) Check to ensure that the control panel is  
programmed correctly and the timer is  
set.  
D) Check to ensure that the door is securely  
closed engaging the door safety lock  
system. Otherwise, the microwave  
energy will not flow into the oven.  
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT A QUALIFIED  
TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.

CLEANING AND CARE  
1. When cleaning surfaces of door and  
outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft  
cloth. This may occur when the  
microwave oven is operated under high  
humidity conditions, this is normal.  
oven that comes together on closing  
the door, use only mild, nonabrasive  
soups, or detergents applied with a  
sponge or soft cloth.  
8. It is occasionally necessary to remove the  
glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in  
warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.  
2. Turn off the oven and remove the power  
plug from the wall socket before cleaning.  
3. 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.  
9. 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.  
4. 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.  
10. Remove odors from your oven by  
combining a cup of water with the juice  
and skin of one lemon in a deep bowl,  
microwave for  
5
minutes. Wipe
