lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
2. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard.( For appliance with type Y attachment)
3. Warning: Ensure that the appliance is switched off before
replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
4. WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves
the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
5. WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed
containers since they are liable to explode.
6. WARNING: Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the
container.
7. WARNING: The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before
consumption, in order to avoid burns.
8. Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
9. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on

GROUNDING INSTALLATION
DANGER - Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious
personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
WARNING - Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock.
Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and
grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with
a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord.
2. If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance.
2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
3) The long cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.

CLEANING
Be sure to unplug the appliance from the power supply.
1. Clean the cavity of the oven after using with a slightly damp cloth.
2. Clean the accessories in the usual way in soapy water.
3. The door frame and seal and neighbouring parts must be cleaned
carefully with a damp cloth when they are dirty.
4. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of the glass.
5. Cleaning Tip---For easier cleaning of the cavity walls that the
food cooked can touch: Place half a lemon in a bowl, add 300ml
(1/2 pint) water and heat on 100% microwave power for 10
minutes. Wipe the oven clean using a soft, dry cloth.
