PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE
MICRO AVE ENERGY
ARNING
When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beve ages in you mic owave oven, delayed e uptive boiling can
occu without evidence of bubbling. This could esult in a sudden boil ove of the hot liquid. To p event this
possibility the following steps should be taken:
1. Avoid using st aight-sided containe s with na ow necks.
2. Do not ove heat.
3. Sti the liquid befo e placing the containe in the oven and again halfway th ough the
heating time.
4. Afte heating, allow to stand in the oven fo a sho t time. Sti o shake the contents (especially feeding
bottles and baby foods) and ca efully check the tempe atu e befo e use.
1. Remove all packing mate ials and accesso ies.
2. Place the oven on a level su face a minimum of 85cm above the floo with at least 30cm above and 10cm ea
space to allow adequate ventilation. The side of the oven should be kept clea so the e is ai flow fo ventilation.
The f ont of the oven should be at least 8cm f om the edge of the su face to p event tipping.
An exhaust outlet is located on top o side of the oven. Blocking the outlet can damage the oven.
3. Plug you oven into a standa d voltage household outlet. Ensu e that the elect ical ci cuit is at least 10 amps
(13 amps fo models MH6337ARW) and that th e oven
is the only
appliance on the circuit.

WARNING: Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in FIRE and
subsequent DAMAGE to the OVEN.
1 Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adju-
stments or repairs to the door, control panel, safety
interlock switches or any other part of the oven.It is
hazardous for anyone to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves the removal of any
cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy. Repairs should only be undert-
aken by a qualified service technician.
2 Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to
leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use.
The water will safely absorb all microwave energy,
if the oven is accidentally started.
3 Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidifi-
cation. It can be the cause of serious damage of
safety. (ex. Operating the microwave oven with the
wet newspapers, clothes, toys, pet or portable
electric devices, etc.)
4 Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless
your cook book contains instructions, for the food
you are cooking.

Oth r H lpful Instructions
Cl aning and Car
For b st r sults and mor njoyabl cooking,
pl as r ad th s comm nts thoroughly.
For B st R sults:
1. When determining the time for a particular food,
begin by using minimum time and checking con-
dition occasionally. It is easy to overcook food
because microwaves cook very quickly.
2. Small quantities of food, or foods with low water
content may dry out and become hard if
cooked too long.
D frosting Froz n Foods:
1. Foods that have been frozen can be placed
directly in the oven for thawing. (Be certain
to remove any metallic ties or wraps.)
2. efrost according to the efrosting Tips found in
this Manual.
3. For areas of the food thawing faster than others,
cover with small pieces of aluminium foil. This
helps slow down or stop the defrosting process.
4. Some foods should not be completely thawed
before cooking. For example, fish cooks so
quickly that it is sometimes better to begin
cooking while still slightly frozen.
5. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the
cooking time in some recipes, depending
on the starting temperature of the foods.
NOTE:
Air from the vent may become warm during
cooking.
Browning:
There are a few foods which are not cooked long
enough in the microwave oven to brown and may
need additional colour.
Coatings such as paprika, and browning agents
such as Worcestershire sauce may be used on
chops, meat patties or chicken pieces.
Roasts, poultry or ham, cooked for 10-15 minutes or
longer, will brown without extra additives.
BE SURE THE OVEN IS TURNED OFF BEFORE
CLEANING.
Keep the oven interior surfaces clean and dry.
As a general rule clean after each use.
INTERIOR WALLS
Remove any crumbs and food remains between the
door and oven using a damp cloth. This area has
to be particularly well cleaned to ensure the door
will close properly. Remove any grease splashes
with a soapy cloth then rinse and dry. o not use
abrasives which may scratch and damage the
painted surface of the oven.
NEVER POUR WATER INTO THE OVEN
ROLLER REST
The roller rest should be removed and cleaned in
hot soapy water at least once a week to prevent
grease restricting the rotation of the wheels.
DOOR
The door and door seals should be kept clean at
all times. Use only warm, soapy water to rinse then
dry thoroughly.
O NOT USE ABRASIVE MATERIALS, SUCH AS
CLEANING POW ERS OR STEEL AN PLASTIC
PA S.
Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped
frequently with a damp cloth.
EXTERIOR
Clean with mild soap and wa m wate , inse and
d y with a soft cloth. Do not use ab asive mate ials.
Do not spill wate in the vents. If the powe lead
becomes soiled wipe it with a damp cloth.
Do not use any steam cleaner.

NOTE:
WEIGHT DEFROST COOKING
Defrosting frozen food is one of the benefits of a
microwave oven. Defrosting using a microwave
oven is much faster than in the refrigerator and
safer than at room temperature, as it does not
promote the growth of harmful bacteria.
It is important to remember that defrosting takes
longer than normal cooking. Check the food,
turning it over at least once during defrosting.
Operating Procedure
CAUTION:
Be careful when removing your food the

The temperature and density of food varies,
I would recommend that the food is checked
before cooking. The BREAD programme is
suitable for defrosting small items such as rolls
or a small loaf. These will require a standing
time to allow the centre to thaw. In the following

AUTO W EIGHT DEFROST GUIDE
* Food to be defrosted should be in a suitable microwave proof container and place uncovered
on the glass turntable.
* If necessary, shield small areas of meat or poultry with flat pieces of aluminum foil. This will prevent
thin areas becoming warm during defrosting. Ensure the foil does not touch the oven walls.
* Separate items like minced meat, chops, sausages and bacon as soon as possible.
When BEEP, at this piont remove the food fromthe microwave oven,turn the food over and return to
the microwave oven. Press start to continue. At the end of the program, remove the food from
the microwave oven, cover with foil and allow to stand until completely thawed.To thaw completely,
for example joints of meat and whole chickens should STAN D for a minimum of 1 hour before cooking.

Questions and Answers
Q. What’s w ong when the oven light will not
glow?
A. ■Light bulb has blown.
■Doo is not closed.
Q. Why is steam coming out of the ai exhaust
vent and/o why is wate d ipping f om the
bottom of the doo ?
A. Steam is no mally p oduced du ing cooking
ope ations. The mic owave has been made
to vent this steam out of the side vent,
occasionally this steam condenses on the
doo and wate then d ips out at the bottom
of the doo . This is quite no mal and safe.
Q. Does mic owave ene gy pass th ough the
viewing sc een in the doo ?
A. No. The metal sc een eflects the ene gy to
the oven cavity. The holes, o po ts a e
made to allow light to pass; they do not let
mic owave ene gy th ough.
Q. Will the mic owave oven be damaged if it
ope ates while empty?
A. Yes. Neve un it empty.
Q. Why do eggs sometimes pop?
A. When baking o poaching eggs, the yolk
may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk
memb ane. To p event this, simply pie ce the
yolk with a toothpick befo e cooking.
Neve cook eggs witthout pie cing thei shells.
Q. Why is standing time ecommended afte the
cooking ope ation has been completed?
A. Standing time is ve y impo tant.
With mic owave cooking, the heat is in the
food, not in the oven.
Many foods build up enough inte nal heat to
allow the cooking p ocess to continue, even
afte the food is emoved f om the oven.
Standing time fo joints of meat, la ge
vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to
cook completely, without ove cooking the outside.
Q. Why does my oven not always cook as fast
as the mic owave cooking guide says?
A. Check you cooking guide again, to make
su e you’ve followed di ections exactly;
and to see what might cause va iations in
cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat

in getting used to a mic owave oven.
Va iations in the size, shape and weights and
dimensions could equi e longe cooking time.
Use you own judgement along with the
cooking guide suggestions to check
whethe the food has been p ope ly cooked
just as you would do with a conventional
cooke .
Q. Why do spa ks and c ackling (a cing) occu
in the oven?
A. The e may be seve al easons why spa ks
