safety interlocks built into the door
mechanism. It is important not to
tamper with the safety interlocks
(safety interlocks automatically
switch off any cooking activity
when the door is opened).

5
www.signaturebrand.co
This could result in harmful
exposure to excessive microwave
energy.
• DO NOT place any object (such
as kitchen towels, napkins, etc.)
between the microwave front face
and the door, or allow food or
cleaner residue to accumulate on
sealing surfaces.
• DO NOT operate the microwave
if it is damaged. It is particularly
important that the microwave door
closes properly and that there is no
damage to its door hinges, latches,
door seals and sealing surfaces.
• Please ensure cooking times are
correctly set. Small amounts of
food require shorter cooking or
heating time. Over cooking may
result in the food catching on re
and subsequent damage to the
microwave.
• When heating liquids, e.g. soups,
sauces and beverages in your
microwave, avoid using straight
sided containers with narrow
necks.
• Stir the liquid before placing the
container in the microwave and
again halfway through the heating
time. After heating, let it stand,
stir or shake it again carefully
and check the temperature of it
before consuming to avoid burns
(especially, contents of feeding
bottles and baby food jars).
• An exhaust outlet is located on
the top, bottom or side of the
microwave. Don’t block the outlet.
It could result in damage to your
microwave and poor cooking
results.
• DO NOT operate the microwave
when empty. It is best to leave a
glass of water in the microwave
when not in use. The water will
safely absorb all microwave energy
if the microwave is accidentally
started.
• Improper use could result in
damage to the microwave.
• DO NOT use wooden containers
and ceramic containers that have
metallic (e.g. gold or silver) inlays.
Always remove metal twist ties.
• Check that the utensils are suitable
for use in the microwave before
use. They may heat up and char.
Metal objects in particular may arc
in the microwave, which can cause
serious damage.
• DO NOT rinse the glass turntable
by placing it in water just after
cooking. This may cause breakage
or damage.
• Before cooking pierce the skin of
potatoes, apples or any such fruit
or vegetables. They could burst.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT TEAM: [phone]
• DO NOT cook eggs in their shell.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-
boiled eggs should not be heated
in the microwave since they may
explode, even after microwave
heating has ended.
• Pressure will build up inside the
egg which will burst.
• DO NOT attempt deep fat frying in
your microwave. This could result in
a sudden boil over of hot liquid.
• If smoke is observed, switch off
or disconnect the microwave from
the power supply and keep the
microwave door closed in order
to stifle any flames. It can cause
serious damage, such as re or
electric shock.
• When food is heated or cooked
in disposable containers made of
plastic, paper or other combustible
materials keep an eye on the
microwave and check it frequently.
• The microwave should be cleaned
regularly and any food deposits
should be removed. Failure to
maintain the microwave in a
clean condition could lead to
deterioration of the surface. This
could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
• Follow exact directions given
by each manufacturer for their
popcorn product. DO NOT leave
the oven unattended while corn
is being popped. If corn fails to
pop after the suggested times,
discontinue cooking.
• Never use a brown paper bag for
popping corn. Never attempt to
pop leftover kernels. Overcooking
could result in the corn catching
re.
• DO NOT use harsh abrasives
cleaners or sharp metal scrapers
to clean the microwave door glass.
They can scratch the surface,
which may result in the glass
shattering.
• After cooking, the container is very
hot. Use gloves to take out the
food and avoid steam burns by
directing steam away from the face
and hands.
• This appliance is intended to be
used in household and similar
applications such as: staff kitchen
areas in shops, offices and other
working environments, farm
houses, by clients in hotels, motels
and other residential environments,
bed & breakfast type environments.
• 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 re.
• The door or outer surface may
get hot when the appliance is
operating.
• In the unlikely event the appliance
develops a fault, stop using it
immediately and seek advice from
the Customer Support Team.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Before rst use:
Take out all of the packaging, if there is a
safe lm over the oven, tear it o before use.
Check carefully for damage. If any, immediately
notify the dealer or send to the manufacturer’s
Service Centre.
Microwave ovens must be placed under dry
and in non-corrosiveness environments. They
should kept away from heat and humidity, such
as gas burner or water tank.
To ensure sufficient ventilation, the distance
from the back of microwave to the wall should
be at least 10 cm. The side of the microwave
near the wall should be at least 5 cm with free
distance at least 85cm above the top surface
of the appliance of the at least 20 cm. The
distance from the microwave to the ground
should be at least 85 cm.
The microwave should be positioned far away
from TVs, Radios and/or antennas since picture
disturbance or noise may occur.

The microwave oven must be free-standing
when it is used as intended.
The back of the oven must be placed against
a wall.
During rst use the microwave oven may
omit an odour and slightly smoke. This is due
to manufacturing residue or oil on the heat
element or oven cavity. This is normal and
should not occur after several uses. Keep
your doors and windows open to ensure good
ventilation. It is recommended to place a cup of
water on the glass tray set on high and operate
the microwave oven several times to help clean
the microwave of residue.

Caution!: There are a number of accessories
available on the market. Before you buy, make
sure they are suitable for microwave use.
When you put food into the Microwave, ensure
that the food, food supports and/or covering
do not come in direct contact with any of the
internal walls or the ceiling of the cavity since
discolouration may take place.
Some plastics are heat-proof only to certain
temperatures. Check carefully!
Always remove lids of jars and containers,
including take away food containers, before
you cook using your microwave. If you don’t
remove the lids, then steam and pressure can
build up inside and cause an explosion even
after microwave cooking has stopped.
Do not use straight sided containers with
narrow necks when heating liquid. Use extreme
care when inserting a spoon or other utensils
into the container.
Cooking tips:
The following factors may aect the cooking
result:
Food arrangement
Place thicker foods towards the outside of the
dish with the thinner foods towards the centre.
Spread the food evenly and avoid overlapping,
if possible.
Cooking time length
Begin cooking on a shorter time setting and
evaluate the food after it times out.
Extend the time according to the actual need.
Over cooking may result in burnt food and
smoke.
Piercing
Food such as potatoes, sh, chicken and
sausages all need to be pierced in several
places before cooking, so that steam does not
build up and cause the food to explode.
Cooking food evenly
Food such as chicken, burgers or steak should
be turned once during cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable,
stir from outside to the centre of the dish once
or twice during cooking.
Allow standing time
Once the cooking time has nished, allow food
to stand in the Microwave for a few minutes.
This allows the food to complete its cooking
cycle and to cool down naturally.
If the food is cooked fully:
The colour and rmness of food help to
determine whether it is done.
The following signs show that the food is ready:
• Steam coming out from all parts of food,
not just the edge
• Joints of poultry can be moved easily
• Pork or poultry show no signs of blood
• Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily
with a fork
Browning dish
When using a browning dish or self-heating
container, always place a heat-resistant
insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to
prevent damage to the turntable and rotating
ring.
Microwave safe plastic wrap
When cooking food with high fat content, do
not allow the plastic wrap come into contact
with food as it may melt.
Microwave safe plastic cookware
Some microwave safe plastic cookware might
not be suitable for cooking foods with high
fat and sugar content. The preheating time
specied in the dish instruction manual must
not be exceeded.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Questions Answers
Is it normal for the turntable
to turn in either direction?
Yes. The turntable can rotate clockwise or anti-clockwise, depending on
the rotation of the motor when the cooking cycle starts.
Can I operate my
microwave whilst it is
empty?
No, never run it empty or with a very small load for a long period of time as
this will damage the microwave.
Can I open the door whilst
the microwave is running?
You can open the door at any point during cooking. The microwave
energy will automatically switch o when the door is opened, and the time
setting will pause until the door is closed.
Why is my microwave
sparking?
If you see sparks in your microwave, turn it o immediately. Sparks can be
caused by:
metal or aluminium foil that touches the interior of the microwave, metal
from a closing strip or tableware with metallic edges; recycled paper
that contains small metal particles and aluminium foil that is not correctly
covering the food.
Remove anything from the Microwave that may contain metal. Refer to
the Utensils Guideline in this manual for reference of what containers are
microwave safe.
I am trying to cook eggs
and they are popping.
What do I do?
When you bake or poach eggs, the yolk can pop due to a build-up of
steam inside the yolk membrane. Pierce the yolk with a toothpick before
cooking. Never cook eggs without rst piercing their shells.
My microwave is taking
longer to cook food than
the cooking guide says.
Variations in the size, shape and weight of your food can aect cooking
times.
Cooking guide times and heat settings should be used as suggestions to
help prevent over-cooking. If you nd the cooking time or temperature is
not suited to your ingredients, adjust accordingly.
Can I operate my
microwave without the
turntable?
No. If you remove the turntable you will get poor cooking results. Ensure
that all dishes used in the Microwave t correctly on to the turntable.
What does standing
time mean and why is it
recommended?
Standing time means that food should be removed from the Microwave
and allowed to ‘stand’ for an additional time to let it nish cooking.
This is important because with microwave cooking, the heat is held in the
food, not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow
the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the
oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to
allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside.
Most directions on microwavable food will note how much standing time
is required.

CLEANING AND CARE
The microwave should be cleaned regularly
and any food deposits removed.
Remove the power cord from the wall outlet
before cleaning. Don’t immerse the appliance
in water or other fluids when cleaning.
Failure to maintain the microwave in a clean
condition could lead to deterioration of the
surface. This could adversely aect the life
of the appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
Never use hard detergent, gasoline, abrasive
powder or metal brush to clean any part of the
appliance.
Do not remove the waveguide cover.
After lengthy use, it is possible for odors to emit
from the Microwave.
The following 3 points are some methods to
remove odors or unpleasant smells:
1. Place several lemon slices in a cup, then
heat with high Micro Power for 2-3 min.
2. Put some orange peel into the Microwave,
and then heat them with high Micro
Power for 1 minute.
Tips for cleaning
If the seal of the microwave is dirty, it may stop
the door from closing properly. Keep the seal
clean.
Spicy sauces such as ketchup and mustard,
or salty dishes such as salted meat contain
ingredients that can erode the surface. After
use, you should always clean the oven interior.
Residue of food from spillovers or splatters will
attract microwave energy causing it to burn
on. This could reduce the efficiency of the
microwave and may cause bad odours.
Details for cleaning door seals, cavity and
adjacent parts:
• Exterior: Wipe the enclosure with a
dampened soft cloth
• Door: Using a dampened soft cloth, wipe
clean the door and window. Wipe the
door seals and adjacent parts to remove
any spills. Wipe the control panel with a
slightly dampened soft cloth.
• Interior walls: Wipe clean the cavity with
a dampened soft cloth. Wipe clean the
waveguide cover to remove any food
remnants.
• Turntable / Rotation ring / Rotation axis:
Wash with mild soap water. Rinse with
clean water and allow drying thoroughly.
Note: Do not remove the Waveguide cover
during cleaning.
Make sure the Waveguide cover is installed
correctly and has not been damaged during
cooking.
