IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE
WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric
shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances,
certain rules to follow and safeguards to
assure high performance from this oven:
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than
food preparation, such as for drying clothes,
paper, or any other nonfood items or for sterilizing
purposes.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could
damage the oven.
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage,
such as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in
place. Be sure it is properly sitting on the rotating
base.

5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to
cooking when you cook food sealed in bottles.
6. Do not put foreign material between the oven
surface and door. It could result in excessive
leakage of microwave energy.
7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking.
They may contain impurities which could cause
sparks and/or fires when used during cooking.
8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a
microwave approved popcorn popper or unless
it's commercially packaged and recommended
especially for microwave ovens. Microwave
popped corn produces a lower yield than
conventional popping; there will be a number of
unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified
by the manufacturer.
9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a
membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken
livers, etc., without first piercing them several
times with a fork.
10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the
manufacturer's directions. (popping time is
generally below 3 minutes). Longer cooking does
not yield more popped corn, it can cause
scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to
handle or may break.
11. If smoke is emitted, switch off or unplug the
appliance and keep the door closed in order to
stifle any flames.
12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of
ignition.
13. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature
checked before consumption, in order to avoid
burns.
14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which
has been heated in a microwave oven before you
give it to somebody, especially to children or
elderly people. This is important because things
which have been heated in a microwave oven
carry on getting hotter even though the
microwave oven cooking has stopped.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
15. 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;
16. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the
oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If
you leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may
overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using
the oven.
17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot
control the temperature and doing so may lead to
overheating and fire.
18. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to 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. THIS
COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it
c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
e) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
19. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the appliance.
20. Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave
ovens.
21. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when
handling the container.
22. This appliance is intended to be used in household and
similar applications such as:
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working
environments;
- farm houses;
- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type
environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments.

This appliance must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
earthing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a
earthing wire with an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and earthed.
INSTALLATION
EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING : Improper use of the earthing plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
earthing instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as
to whether the appliance is properly earthed. If it is necessary to use an
extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
earthing plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
3. Leave space behind and side
All air vents should be kept a clearance. If all vents are covered during
operation, the oven may overheat and, eventually, oven failure.
4. Away from radio and TV sets
Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is
located close to a TV, Radio antenna, feeder and so on. Position the
oven as far from them as possible.
5. Away from heating appliance and water taps
Keep the oven away from hot air, steam or Splash when choosing a
place to position it, or the insulation might be adversely affected and
breakdowns occur.
6. Power supply
• Check your local power source. This oven requires a current of
approximately
6 amperes, 240V 50Hz.
• Power supply cord is about 0.8 meters long.
• The voltage used must be the same as specified on this oven. Using a
higher voltage may result in a fire or other accident causing oven
damage. Using low voltage will cause slow cooking. We are not
responsible for damage resulting from use of this oven with a voltage of
ampere fuse other than those specified.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or a similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a
hazard.
7. Examine the oven after unpacking for any damage such as:
A misaligned door, Broken door, A dent in cavity. If any of the above is
visible, DO NOT INSTALL, and notify dealer immediately.
8. Do not operate the oven if it is colder than room temperature.
(This may occur during delivery in cold weather.) Allow the oven to
become room temperature before operating.
1. Ventilation
Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may
overheat and eventually cause a failure. For proper ventilation, allow
above 100mm of space between oven sides, rear and the minimum
height of free space necessary above the top surface of the oven is
200mm.
2. Steady, flat location
This oven should be set on a steady, flat surface. This oven is designed
for counter top use only.
The microwave oven shall not be placed in a cabinet unless it has been

Turn the oven off before cleaning.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere to
oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets
very dirty.
The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not recommended.
The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed and
dried with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven,
water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh
detergents or abrasives on Control Panel.
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 conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in
warm sudsy water or in a
dishwasher.
The roller guide and oven cavity
floor should be cleaned regularly to
avoid excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface of
