door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing
surfaces. Wipe the door sealing area frequently with amild
detergent, rise and wipe dry. Never use abrasive powders or
pads.

should be followed, including the following:
WARNING -To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to
persons or exposure to excessive microwave energy:
1.
2.
Read all instructions before using.
As with most cooking appliances,
close supervision is necessary to
reduce the risk of afire in the oven
cavity.
If afire should start or smoke is
observed:
●Keep the oven door closed
●Turn the oven off, and
●Disconnect the power cord or
shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
Keep in mind the following rules at all
times:
a.
b.
c.
3.
Do not overcook food.
Overcooked food can cause fires
in the oven. Carefully attend to the
oven’s activities, especially if
paper, plastic, or other
combustibles are inside.
Do not store combustible items
such as bread, cookies, paper
products, etc. inside the oven.
They may catch fire if turned on
accidentally.
Do not use wire twist-ties in the
oven. Be sure to inspect
purchased items for wire twist-ties
and remove before placing food in

AUTOMATIC DEFROST BY WEIGHT
Automatic Defrost allows you to easily defrost food. Power levels and times
are automatically determined when the food weight is entered.
FINE DEFROST Use for thorough defrosting of larger, dense frozen foods,
when it is important to have the centre section defrosted as well as the outside.
Ideal for items such as roasts, whole chicken and steak.
QUICK DEFROST Use to assist separation of frozen pieces of chicken or fish
that need preparation prior to cooking. Excellent for defrosting ground meat
for use in spaghetti sauce or taco meat.
Example: To thoroughly defrost a2.5 kg whole chicken:

Defrosting Techniques:
●Remove freezer paper, plastic wrap or foil wrap. Place food in amicrowave-safe dish.
●To prevent thin parts and edges from becoming too warm and cooking before
centre of food is defrosted, shield with small pieces of aluminium foil.
●Because some foods will still be icy in the centre, it is necessary to have astanding time
after defrosting the food in the oven. Food should be taken out of the oven to complete
defrosting. Alonger standing time might be required for denser foods such as roasts.
●To defrost items not listed in defrosting chart, use Time defrosting (see page 13).
●The FINE DEFROST includes preset standing time.
Note: ●Maximum weight for defrosting is 2.9 kg.
●The oven selects 1kg if aweight is not entered.
cBeep tone sounds 5times during the defrosting cycleto signal that food
should be rearranged to improve defrosting performance. Open the door and
rearrange the food. The oven continues the defrosting cycle to the end if you
