• Wipe the oven cavity with a soft, damp
cloth after each use. Leaving food residue,
grease or fat in the cavity could cause the
Microwave Oven cavity to overheat and
may cause the Microwave Oven to smoke
or catch fire.
• The Microwave Oven should be cleaned
regularly and any food spattering inside
the cavity should be removed. Failure to
maintain the Microwave Oven in a clean
condition could lead to deterioration of the
surface, adversely affecting the life of the
Microwave Oven and possibly resulting in a
hazardous situation.
• If the door seals or any of the Microwave
Oven is damaged, the Microwave Oven
must not be operated until it has been
inspected and/or repaired at an authorised
Kambrook Service Centre.
• The Microwave Oven is intended for heating
food and beverages. Drying of food or
clothing and heating or warming pads,
slippers, sponges, damp cloth and similar
may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire.
• 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 as this may
impede the rotation of the turntable and
result in food being unevenly cooked.
• Liquids or other foods must not be heated
in sealed containers since they are liable
to explode.
• 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.
• Food and/or liquids should not be heated
or cooked directly on the turntable. Food
and/or liquids must be placed into a suitable
microwave-proof container before placing
onto the glass turntable.
• 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 twist ties should be removed
from the 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.
• Only use utensils that are suitable for use in
Microwave Ovens.
• Food grade foil should not be used in
the Microwave Oven as this could cause
sparking and/or fire.
• Ensure that lids and caps covering containers
are removed prior to placing liquids and/or
foods into the Microwave Oven.
• Feeding bottles and baby food jars should
have 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 or
similar utensils.

• 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.

Hints and Tips
• 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 spattering
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.
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.
WARNING:Do not use
metal containers and
utensils in the microwave
oven.

Care, Cleaning and Storage
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 spatters
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.
7. It is occasionally necessary to
remove the glass turntable for
cleaning. Wash the turntable
with warm soapy water, rinse with
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.
