1. Make sure that all the packing materials are
removed from the inside of the door.
2. WARNING: Check the oven for any damage,
such as misaligned or bent door, damaged
door seals and sealing surface, broken or
loose door hinges and latches and dents
inside the cavity or on the door. If there is
any damage, do not operate the oven and
contact qualified service personnel.
3. This microwave oven must be placed on a
flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the
heaviest food likely to be cooked in the oven.
4. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture,
or high humidity are generated, or near
combustible materials.
5. For correct operation, the oven must have
sufficient airflow. Allow 10cm space above
the oven, 10cm at back and 5cm at both
sides. Do not cover or block any openings
on the appliance. Do not remove feet.
6. Do not operate the oven without glass tray,
roller support, and shaft in their proper
positions.
7. Make sure that the power supply cord is
undamaged and does not run under the
oven or over any hot or sharp surface.
8. The socket must be readily accessible so
that it can be easily unplugged in an
emergency.
9. Do not use the oven outdoors.
RADIO INTERFERENCE
Operation of the microwave oven can cause
interference to your radio, TV, or similar
equipment.
When there is interference, it may be reduced or
eliminated by taking the following measures:
1. Clean door and sealing surface of the
oven.
2. Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or
television.
3. Plug the microwave oven into a different
outlet so that microwave oven and receiver
are on different branch circuits.

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES
1. Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas
towards outside of dish.
2. Evaluate the cooking time. Cook for the
shortest amount of time indicated and add
more as needed. Food 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 microwave
cooking 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.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is
equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with
a grounding 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.
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.
Note:
1. If you have any questions about the
grounding or electrical instructions, consult a
qualified electrician or service person.
2. The manufacturer cannot accept any liability
for damage to the oven or personal injury
resulting from failure to observe the electrical
connection procedures.
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
If the oven fails to operate:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Check to ensure that the control panel is
programmed correctly and the timer is set.
4. 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 SOLUTIONS RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT CAMEC OR
AN AUTHORISED CAMEC REPAIRER. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.

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. Microwaves cannot 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.
