• If the door seals or any part of the Microwave
Oven are damaged, the Microwave Oven
must not be operated until it has been
inspected and/or repaired at an authorised
Kambrook Service Centre.
• Ensure all food containers and/or plates are
suitable for use in the Microwave Oven. This
should be done prior to preparing food for
heating or cooking in the Microwave Oven.
Monitor foods and liquids heating or cooking
in the Microwave Oven at all times due to
the possibility of containers igniting.
• Containers or plates suitable for use in the
Microwave Oven should not exceed the
width of the glass turntable tray as this may
impede the rotation of the tray and result in
food being unevenly cooked.
• Food and/or liquids should not be heated or
cooked directly on the turntable tray. Food
and/or liquids must be placed into a suitable
microwave-proof container before placing
onto the turntable tray.
• Food and/or liquids should not be heated
or cooked in plastic or paper containers or
bags, unless specified as suitable for use by
the manufacturer, due to the possibility of
containers exploding or igniting. Metal clips
or twists should be removed from packaging
as these could cause sparking and/or fire.
• Do not use recycled paper or kitchen paper
towelling when cooking. Recycled paper
may contain small metal or other impurities
which could cause sparking and/or fire.
• Do not use metal containers or utensils in
the Microwave Oven as these could cause
sparking and/or fire.
• Food grade foil wrapping may be used in a
single layer to mask 1⁄3portion of the food to
be cooked and should not extend pass the
edge of the glass turntable tray. Food grade
foil should not be used in layers or fully cover
the food as this could cause sparking and/or
fire. Food grade foil should not be used
to cover any part of the glass turntable tray.
• Ensure that lids and caps covering containers
are removed prior to placing liquids and/or
foods into the Microwave Oven since they
are liable to explode.
• Feeding bottles and baby food jars should
have the lids and caps removed before
warming or heating in the Microwave Oven.
To avoid burns or scalding after heating, the
contents should be stirred or shaken and the
temperature checked before serving.
• Always ensure the temperature of food or
drink which has been heated or cooked
in the Microwave Oven has been tested
before eating, drinking or serving to others,
especially children, disabled or elderly
people.
• The heating of liquids and beverages in
the Microwave Oven can result in delayed
eruptive boiling. Care must be taken when
handling any containers containing hot
liquids or beverages.
• Do not heat popcorn in the Microwave
Oven unless it has been commercially
packaged for microwave use. There may be
a number of un-popped kernels that may
overcook and burn when popping popcorn.
Do not use oil unless recommended by
the manufacturer. Do not pop popcorn
longer than the manufacturer’s instructions
(popping time should not exceed 3 minutes).
Longer cooking could cause scorching
or fire.
• Do not cook any food surrounded by a
membrane (such as potatoes, chicken liver,
egg yolks, oysters, etc) without first piercing
the membrane several times with a fork.
• Fresh eggs in the shell and whole hard-boiled
eggs should not be cooked or heated in
the Microwave Oven as they may explode
during cooking, at the end of cooking
or after removing from the Microwave Oven.
• Do not heat oil or fat for shallow or deep
frying in the Microwave Oven. Doing so may
cause the Microwave Oven and/or the oil to
overheat and/or ignite.
• If any smoke is observed, switch off
and unplug the Microwave Oven at the
power outlet. Keep the door closed to stifle
any flames.
• Do not attempt to operate the Microwave
Oven by any method other than those
described in this book.
• Do not disconnect the Microwave Oven from
the power supply by pulling on the cord to
unplug from the power outlet.
• When storing the Microwave Oven, loosely
wind the cord. Donot wrap the cord around
the Microwave Oven.
• Some containers and/or plates may appear
suitable for use in the Microwave Oven but
may be coated in a glaze that will absorb
the microwave energy, overheat and cause
the container to crack. The glaze may also
prevent the food from heating/cooking.
WARNING:Liquids or
other foods must not
be heated in sealed
containers since they
are liable to explode.

Microwave Utensils
• Containers, plates, dishes, etc.
used in the microwave oven
should always be microwave-safe.
Check if stated on the underside
of the utensil or contact the
manufacturer.
• To test if a container, plate or dish
is microwave-safe, place it into
the
microwave oven with 1 cup
of cold water and heat on High
Power “PL10” for 1 minute. If the
container is hot and the water is
cold, the container is not suitable
for
microwave oven use. If the
container is cold and the water is
hot, then the container is suitable
for
microwave oven use.
• Metal containers and utensils
should not be used in the
microwave oven .
• Foods that are high in liquid,
fat and sugar cook well in the
microwave oven.
• Drier foods require shorter
cooking time.
• Always arrange food carefully.
Place the thickest areas towards
the outside of the dish.
• Place smaller items, such as 1 cup
drinks, towards the outer edge of
the glass turntable.
• Place larger items, such as
chicken or cake, in the centre of
the glass turntable.
• Larger items, such as chicken
or cake, should be raised on a
microwave-safe rack for more
even cooking.
• Pay close attention to the cooking
time. Cook for the shortest
amount of time indicated and
add more time as needed. Food
that is severely overcooked can
smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods loosely with vented
lids or microwave safe plastic
wrap while heating or cooking.
• Covering foods prevents splattering
and helps foods cook evenly.
• Turn foods over once during
microwaving to speed the
cooking process of foods such as
chicken and hamburgers. Large
items like roasts must be turned
over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as
meatballs halfway through
cooking both from top to bottom
and from the centre of the dish to
the outside.
Hints & Tips

17
1. Switch off the microwave oven
at the power outlet and remove
the plug from the power outlet
before cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the
microwave
oven
clean. When food splatters
or spilled liquids adhere to the
microwave oven internal walls,
wipe with a damp cloth. Mild
detergent may be used if the
cavity 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 microwave
oven cavity, water should not
be allowed to seep into the
ventilation openings.
4. Wipe the door and window on
both sides of the door seals and
adjacent parts frequently with a
damp cloth to remove any spills
or spatters. Do not use an
abrasive cleaner.
5. Do not allow the control panel
to become wet. Clean with a
soft, damp cloth. When cleaning
the control panel, leave the
microwave oven door open
to prevent it from accidentally
turning on.
6. If steam accumulates inside or
around the outside of the oven
door, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
This may occur when cooking
foods high in moisture or if the
microwave oven is operated
under high humidity conditions,
this is normal.
Care, Cleaning and Storage
7. It is occasionally necessary to
remove the glass turntable for
cleaning. Wash the turntable in
warm soapy water, rinse in clean
water and dry thoroughly.
8. The roller ring and microwave
oven floor should be cleaned
regularly to ensure the glass
turntable rotates correctly and
avoids making excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface
of the microwave with a soft
damp cloth. The roller ring may
be washed in mild soapy water,
rinse in clean water and dry
thoroughly. When removing the
roller ring from the cavity floor for
cleaning, be sure to replace in the
proper position.
9. Remove odours from your
microwave oven by combining a
cup of water with the juice of one
lemon in a deep microwave-safe
bowl, microwave on High “PL10”
for 5 minutes. Wipe the microwave
oven cavity thoroughly and dry
with a soft cloth.
10. When it becomes necessary to
replace the oven light, please
consult your Kambrook Service
Centre to have it replaced.
11. Please do not dispose this
appliance with domestic rubbish; it
should be taken to the appropriate
disposal centre provided by the
local council municipalities.
12. If storing the microwave oven,
press the ‘STOP/CANCEL’ button,
switch off at the power outlet then
unplug the power cord. Ensure
the microwave oven is completely
cool, clean and dry. Secure the
roller ring and glass turntable
and close the door. Do not place
heavy objects on top. Store the
microwave oven upright.
