nona rasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or soft cloth.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other com usti le materials are placed
inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic ags efore placing ag in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, KEEP OVEN DOOR CLOSED, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord or
shut off power at the fuse or circuit reaker panel.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
the cavity when not in use.
17. Liquids such as water, coffee,or tee are a le to e overheated eyond the oiling point without appearing to e oiling.
Visi le u ling or oiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD
RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A
SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons;
1) Do not overheat the liquid.
2) Stir the liquid oth efore and halfway through heating it.
3) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
4) After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time efore removing the container
5) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
18. Avoid heating small-necked containers such as syrup ottles.

HOW YOUR MICROWAVE WITH SMART WAVE TECHNOLOGY WORKS
This section discusses the concepts ehind microwave cooking. It also shows you the asics you need to know to
operate your microwave oven. Please read this information efore you use your oven.
A microwave oven uses microwaves to heat food.
Microwaves are very short waves of electromagnetic
energy that travel at the speed of light (186,282 miles
per second). Microwaves used in microwave ovens are
in the same family of frequencies as the signals used
in radio and television roadcasting.
In the case of microwave ovens, the commonly used
wave frequency is roughly 2,450 megahertz (2.45 giga-
hertz). Waves in this frequency range have an interest-
ing property: they are a sor ed y water, fats and sug-
ars. When they are a sor ed they are converted
directly into atomic motion-heat. Microwaves in this fre-
quency range have another interesting property: they
are not a sor ed y most plastics, glass or ceramics.
Metal reflects microwaves, which is why metal pans do
not work well in a microwave oven.
One of the most important components used in the
microwave oven is the Magnetron. A magnetron, in the
microwave oven is reponsi le for the production of
microwaves. These microwaves produced y the mag-
netron, move into the oven and come in contact with
the food placed on the glass turnta le.
Further, the glass turnta le iniside the oven lets the
microwaves pass through.These microwaves further
ounce off a metal floor and travel ack through the
glass turn ta le and are finally a sor ed y the food,
placed inside the oven .
One of the characterstic features of microwaves is that
they can pass through most glass, papers and plastics
without heating them and they further get a sor ed y
the food in the form of heat energy. The microwaves
ounce off the metal container and so the metal con-
tainer does not a sor its energy.
SMART WAVETM INVERTER MICROWAVE SYSTEM
SMART WAVETM Inverter Microwave System gives you
etter microwave cooking performance for defrosting,
cooking and reheating foods quickly and uniformly. The
SMART WAVETM Inverter Microwave System is proven
technology that delivers a constant stream of
microwave power - true high, medium and low power.
Conventional microwave ovens operate on HIGH
power only. To achieve 70% power level in a conven-
tional microwave oven, the oven operates 70% of the
time at HIGH power and 70% of the time OFF.
The SMART WAVETM Inverter Microwave System deliv-
ers power continuously, to defrost more evenly and
minimize overcooking of food and messy food spatters.
SENSOR COOKING
The SMART WAVETM Inverter Microwave System fea-
tures Sensor Cooking functions. A humidity sensor in
the oven cavity detects moisture and humidity emmit-
ted from food as it gets heated.
The sensor adjusts cooking time according to various
types and amounts of food.Sensor cooking takes the
guesswork out of microwave cooking.
FOR THE BEST COOKING RESULTS
• Keep a check on the cooking of food.
• In order to make sure that the food is evenly cooked,
stir, turn, or rearrange the food around halfway during
the cooking time.
• Plastic wrap 1/4 to 1/2 inches ( 6.35 to 12.7 mm),
inorder to vent steam during heating or cooking.
