placing bag in oven.
(d) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep
oven door closed, turn oven off at the wall
switch, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
(e) Never leave microwave unattended while
cooking or reheating.
11. Do not remove outer panel from oven.
12. Appliances are not intended to be operated by
means of an external timer or separate remote
control system.
13. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition
could lead to deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the appliance and

Circuits
Your microwave ovens should be operated on
a separate circuit from other appliances. The
voltage used must be the same as specified on this
microwave oven. Failure to do this may cause the
power board fuse to blow, and/or food to cook slower.
Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.
Earthing Instructions
This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This microwave oven is equipped with
a cord having an earthing wire with an earthing plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and earthed.
WARNING—Improper use of the earthing plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.

Installation and General Instructions
General Use
1. In order to maintain high quality, do not operate
the oven when empty. The microwave energy will
reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food
or water is present to absorb energy.
This can lead to damage to the microwave oven
including arcing within the oven cavity.
2. If smoke is observed, press the Stop/Reset Pad
and leave door closed in order to stifle any flames.
Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at
the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
3. The microwave oven is intended for heating food
and beverages. Drying of food or clothing and
heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp
cloth and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition
or fire.
4. Do not use recycled paper products, unless the
paper product is labelled as safe for microwave
oven use. Recycled paper products may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires
when used.
5. Do not use newspapers or paper bags for cooking.
6. Do not hit or strike control panel. Damage to
controls may occur.
7. POT HOLDERS may be needed as heat from food
is transferred to the cooking container and from
the container to the oven. The oven can be very
hot after removing the cooking container.
8. Do not store flammable materials next to, on top
Caution! Hot surfaces
Important Safety Instructions
Precautions to be taken when
using Microwave Ovens for
Heating Foodstuffs
INSPECTION FOR DAMAGE:
A microwave oven should only be used if an
inspection confirms all of the following conditions:
1. The grille is not damaged or broken.
2. The door fits squarely and securely and opens and
closes smoothly.
3. The door hinges are in good condition.
4. The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are
neither buckled nor deformed.
5. The door seals are neither covered with food nor
have large burn marks.
PRECAUTIONS:
Microwave radiation from microwave ovens can cause
harmful effects if the following precautions are not
taken:
1. Never tamper with or deactivate the interlocking
devices on the door.
2. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object,
through a grille or between the door and the oven
while the oven is operating.
3. Never place saucepans, unopened cans or other
heavy metal objects in the oven.
4. Do not let other metallic articles, e.g. fast food foil
containers, touch the side of the oven.
5. Clean the oven cavity, the door and the seals with
water and a mild detergent at regular intervals.
Never use any form of abrasive cleaner that may
scratch or scour surfaces around the door.
6. Always use the oven with the cookware
recommended by the manufacturer.
7. Never operate the oven without a load (i.e., an
absorbing material such as food or water) in the
oven cavity unless specifically allowed in the
manufacturer’s literature.
8. For horizontally hinged doors, never rest heavy
objects such as food containers on the door while
it is open.
9. Do not place sealed containers in the microwave
oven. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a teat
are considered to be sealed containers.
10. This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or 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.
11. Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
12. 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.
13. The surfaces are liable to get hot during use.
Practical Hints:
1. For initial use of COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL,
OVEN, and CRISPY GRILL, if you see white
smoke arise, it is not malfunction.
2. Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on
the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during
COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and
CRISPY GRILL. Use care when opening or closing
door and when inserting or removing food and
accessories.
3. The oven has two grill heaters situated in the
top of the oven. After using the COMBINATION,
STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and CRISPY GRILL
functions, the ceiling will be very hot.
4. The accessible parts may become hot when
COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and
CRISPY GRILL is in use. Children should be kept
away.
5. Before using COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL,
OVEN, or CRISPY GRILL functions for the
first time, operate the oven without food and
accessories on OVEN 220 °C for 10 minutes. This
will allow the oil that is used for rust protection to
be burned off. This is the only time that the oven is
operated completely empty.
