2. Choose a flat work surface for your
microwave away from heat sources such
as radiators or fires and away from cold
areas. You should allow a 10cm space all
around the microwave and 30cm 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.

• Strips of aluminium foil can be used to cover the thinner pieces of food to stop them overcooking
before the thicker parts of the food have had a chance to cook. Use the aluminium foil sparingly
and wrap around the food or container carefully to stop it touching the inside of the microwave
which could cause sparks.
• Microwaves cook food using microwave energy that is similar to naturally occurring radio waves.
Normally, these “waves” would fade as they disappear into the atmosphere but in a microwave
they are concentrated on the food causing it to heat up.
• Microwave energy cannot pass through metal – so it can not escape from inside your microwave
– but it can pass through materials like glass, porcelain, plastic, and paper. These are the things
used to make microwave-safe cooking equipment.
• Microwave-safe cooking equipment will still get hot as the
food it contains heats up.
• The microwave energy focuses on the moisture in the food
causing lots of tiny vibrations. The vibrations get so great
that the moisture – and the food – heat up.
introducing microwave cooking
Always remember the basic safeguards you would follow when using any cooking equipment or
handling hot food.
This page gives some of the basic guidelines for microwave cooking. If you are unfamiliar with using
a microwave, there is more information at the back of this instruction manual.
cooking with a microwave
If you are unsure how long the food should cook for, begin cooking at the lowest
recommended time, then add more time if necessary. The moisture content of food can vary.
Ensure food is thoroughly cooked all the way to the centre before serving.
Cooking with a microwave is much faster than conventional cooking and, whilst you should
make sure that food is fully cooked, you should be careful not to overcook it. Food can catch
fire if excessive cooking times are used.
• Microwave energy can heat unevenly so stirring to distribute heat is very important. Always stir
from the outside, inwards.
• If you are cooking a number of individual foods at the same time, such as baked potatoes or
small cakes, arrange them evenly on the turntable plate so that they cook evenly. Never stack
food in the microwave.
• Turn larger foods such as meat roasts and poultry during cooking so that the top and bottom
cook evenly. It is also recommended to turn pieces of meat or poultry, especially if they have not
been deboned.
• Meat and poultry which is cooked for 15 minutes or more will brown lightly in its own fat.
Anything cooked for a shorter time can be brushed with a browning sauce to give an appetising
colour.

using aluminium foil in your microwave
It is safe to use aluminium foil in your microwave as long as you follow these safety guidelines.
As with all metals, microwave energy cannot pass through aluminium foil, but provided you keep the
aluminium foil away from the side of the microwave it will not cause sparks and there will not be any
damage to your microwave.
Using aluminium foil is a good way of shielding parts of food that you do not want to cook as quickly
as others – perhaps where the food is narrower and would otherwise overcook.
Place the aluminium foil over the area you want to shield, taking care that the aluminium foil will not
touch the sides of the microwave when the turntable plate rotates. Only use one piece of aluminium
foil at a time so that you do not get sparks between the separate pieces.
Follow these guidelines when using aluminium foil in your microwave:
• Remove aluminium foil lids from containers before using in the microwave. Some lids are made
of card with a aluminium foil covering – these should be removed too. Use a microwave safe
transparent lid if possible.
• Stir food during cooking if the container has a lid or film cover.
• Always use the glass turntable plate.
• Use shallow containers with a large surface area. Do not use containers that are more than
1.25in (3.5cm) deep.
• Use gloves when handling hot aluminium foil containers.
• Do not completely cover food with aluminium foil. The microwave energy cannot pass through
the aluminium foil so the food will not cook.
• Do not let aluminium foil touch the inside of the microwave.
• Do not use more than one piece of aluminium foil in the microwave at the same time.
checking your cooking utensils
Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cooking utensils are safe to use in your microwave. If made of
plastic or glass, utensils will be marked as “microwave safe” or similar.
• Never use equipment made of metal, except aluminium foil in your microwave oven.
• The microwave energy can not pass through the metal so it bounces off and sparks
against the inside of the oven.
• Stop the microwave straight away if any equipment does cause sparks.
• Remember that some crockery has a metal trim around the edge. Even this trim can
cause sparks.
• Never use scratched, cracked or damaged glass in a microwave. Damaged glass can
explode.
If you are not sure and/or there is no microwave-safe marking on the utensil, do NOT use it
in the microwave.
For the types of utensils you can use in the microwave, please see the “Materials That Can Be
Used” section.

materials that can be used in the microwave
utensils remarks
Aluminum foil Shielding only. Small smooth pieces can be used to cover thin parts of meat
or poultry to prevent overcooking. Arcing can occur if foil is too close to oven
walls. The foil should be at least 1 inch (2.5cm) away from oven walls.
Browning dish Follow manufacturer’s instructions. The bottom of browning dish must be at
least 3/16 inch (5mm) above the turntable. Incorrect usage may cause the
turntable to break.
Dinnerware Microwave-safe only. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use cracked
or chipped dishes.
Glassware Heat-resistant oven glassware only. Make sure there is no metallic trim.
Do not use cracked or chipped dishes.
Oven cooking bags Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Do not close with metal tie. Make slits to
allow steam to escape.
Paper plates and cups Use for short–term cooking/warming only. Do not leave oven unattended while
cooking.
Paper towels Use to cover food for reheating and absorbing fat. Use with supervision for a
short-term cooking only.
Greaseproof paper Use as a cover to prevent splattering or a wrap for steaming.
Plastic containers Microwave-safe only. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Should be
labelled “Microwave Safe”. Some plastic containers soften, as the food inside
gets hot. “Boiling bags” and tightly closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced
or vented as directed by the instructions on their packaging.
Plastic wrap Microwave-safe only. Use to cover food during cooking to retain moisture.
Do not allow plastic wrap to touch food.

microwave heating categories
Your microwave has been tested and labelled to meet the UK government’s voluntary agreement on the
reheating of pre-cooked food.
The heating characteristics and output power levels of microwaves are usually calculated using a relatively
large portion of food (a 1000 gram load, IEC 60705) but many packs of pre-cooked food are sold in smaller
packs, often about 350 grams.
The UK government, in partnership with food companies and microwave manufacturers, has set up a
system of heating categories to help you choose the reheating time for pre-cooked food.
The category (a letter from A to E), is designed to help you reheat small quantities of food such as
microwave ready meals.
The label given above and also on the oven door gives the heating category and output power of the
oven.
Microwave ready meals weighing up to 500g (1lb 2oz) should have cooking instructions for heating
categories A to E. Follow the instructions for the letter that corresponds to the heating category of the
oven.
The higher the output power and heating category of the oven the less heating time is required. This is
shown in the diagrams below:
oven output power
Less heating time required
600 700 800 900 1000 Watts
More heating time required
oven output category
Less heating time required
A B C D E
More heating time required
900W is the output power of the microwave. (IEC 60705)
E is the heating category for your microwave.
Check the cooking times for category E on the food’s
packaging to see how long it should be cooked for.
Start cooking at the lowest recommended time, and add more time if necessary. The
moisture content of food can vary, ensure food is cooked thoroughly all the way to the centre
before serving.

steam
When you microwave food, steam is created as water in the food heats up and evaporates.
The steam formed during microwave cooking is entirely safe. It has to escape from the microwave
to prevent pressure from building up inside the microwave. It does this through the vents on the
back of the microwave and from around the door.
condensation
As the steam cools, you may find that condensation
gathers in small pools inside your microwave and on
the work surface beneath the door and vents. Always
dry the microwave after cooking foods with a high
moisture content.
Your microwave is designed to let steam escape from
the vents and around the door without microwave
energy escaping. There is no danger of microwave
energy escaping with the steam.

* It is recommended that when auto-cooking a potato, the potato should weight at least 230g.
Note: potatoes will vary in water-content depending on age, type, weight, etc.
For best results, pierce the potato’s skin before cooking. Once the potato is cooked, wrap it in
aluminium foil for at least 5 minutes to ensure it is cooked thoroughly.
The density and thickness of food can affect its cooking time. Ensure all food is piping hot
and cooked thoroughly before serving. It is essential that food is checked during and after
the recommended cooking time, even if auto menu was used.
