before you call for service
If the oven fails to operate:
1. Check to make sure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is
not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds, and plug it
in again securely.
2. Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If
these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another
appliance.
3. Check to make sure that the control panel is programmed cor-
rectly and the timer is set.
4. Check to make sure that the door is securely closed engaging the
door safety lock system. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not
flow into the oven.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT
A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE
OVEN YOURSELF.
installation
1. Make sure that all the packaging materials are removed from the
inside of the door.
2. WARNING: Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or
bent door, damaged door seals and sealing surface, broken or
loose door hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity or on
the door. If there is any damage, do not operate the oven and
contact qualified service personnel.
3. This microwave oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface to
hold its weight and the heaviest food likely to be cooked in the
oven.
4. Do not place the oven where heat, moisture, or high humidity are
generated, or near combustible materials.

grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged
into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be
provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire
or other accident causing oven damage.
Notes:
• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical in-
structions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.
• Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability
for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to
observe the electrical connection procedures.
WARNING: IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING
PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
The wires in the main power cord are colored in accordance with
the following code:
• Green and Yellow: GROUND
• Blue: NEUTRAL
• Brown: LIVE
radio interference
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference to your ra-
dio, TV, or similar equipment.
When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by tak-
ing the following measures:
• Clean door and sealing surfaces of the oven.
• Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
• Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
• Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
• Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave
oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.

10
microwave cooking principles
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of
dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indi-
cated in the recipe and add more as needed. Food severely over-
cooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help
foods to cook evenly.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking 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 center of the dish to the outside.
utensils guide
• The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to micro-
waves, it allows energy to pass through the container and heat the
food.
• Microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes
with metallic trim should not be used.
• Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as
they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks
and/or fires.
• Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recom-
mend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
• Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcook-
ing of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep
a distance of 1 inch (2,54 cm) between foil and cavity.
