2. Choose a flat and stable work surface for
your microwave away from heat sources
such as radiators or fires and away from
cold and humid areas. You should allow
10cm space at the back, 5cm on either
side, and 20cm above so that warm air can
escape from the vents during cooking. This
microwave is not designed to be built in.
getting ready
This microwave is designed for home use only. It should not be used for commercial catering.
1. After unpacking your microwave, check that it has not been damaged whilst in the box. Make
sure there are no dents, and the door closes properly. A damaged microwave could allow
microwave energy to escape. Make sure that you have taken out all the packaging from inside
the microwave. Please dispose of the plastic wrappings / bags safely and keep out of the reach
of babies and young children.
3. Plug your microwave into a standard
household electrical socket (230 volt, 13
amp rated). Avoid using a socket that
also has an adaptor and other equipment
plugged in. Do not use a multi-adaptor.
4. Put the turntable support inside the
microwave and place the glass turntable
plate on top of the support. The turntable
support is shaped to sit securely on the
spindle. You must always use the turntable
plate and support whenever you use the
microwave.
