INSTALLATION AND EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS
How to examine your microwave oven after unpacking.
Unpack oven, remove all packing material, and examine the
oven for any damage such as dents, broken door, latches or
cracks in the door. Do not remove the film from inside the door.
Notify dealer immediately if the oven is damaged. Do not install if
the oven is damaged.
Where to place your microwave oven.
1. Place the oven on a flat and stable surface.
2. The microwave oven shall not be placed in a cabinet unless it
has been tested in a cabinet.
3. Surface of the oven is protected by a plastic film which should
be removed before using.
4. Leave space behind and sides and upper of the oven. All air
vents should be kept a clearance.
If all vents are covered during operation, the oven may
overheat and, eventually, lead to oven failure.
5. Keep away from radio and TV sets. If the oven is located close
to a TV, radio interference may result.
6. Keep away from heating appliances and water taps. Keep the
oven away from hot air, steam or splash when choosing a
place to position it, or the insulation might be adversely
affected and breakdowns occur.
7. The minimum height of free space necessary above the top
surface of the oven is minimum 170mm.
Prior to use (If your oven has a grill element)
In order to protect your oven during transportation and storage,
the grill element is covered with a protective coating. To remove
this coating the grill element must be heated for 5 minutes. This
procedure will produce some bad odours as the protective

Electrical Connection
WARNING-THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
REFER TO RATING PLATE FOR VOLTAGE AND CHECK
THAT THE APPLIANCE VOLTAGE CORRESPONDS WITH
THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE IN YOUR HOME.
The flexible mains lead must be correctly connected, as below, to
a three pin plug of not less than 13 AMP capacity. You must use
a 3 pin plug which should be marked with the number BS 1363
and it should be fitted with 13 AMP fuse marked with the number
BS 1362.
We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets
that can be switched off when the machine is not in use.
IMPORTANT-The wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance
are coloured in accordance with the following code
GREEN AND YELLOW-EARTH
BLUE-NEUTRAL
BROWN-LIVE
As the colour of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may
not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Power supply
• Check your local power source. This oven requires a current of
approximately 15(12)amperes, 240V 50Hz.
• Power supply cord is about 1.2 meters long.
• The voltage used must be the same as specified on this oven.
Using a higher voltage may result in a fire or other accident
causing oven damage. Using low voltage will cause slow
cooking. We are not responsible for damage resulting from use
of this oven with a voltage of ampere fuse other than those
specified.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid a hazard.
The wire which is coloured GREEN AND YELLOW must be
connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the
letter "E" or the earth symbol or coloured GREEN AND

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured BLACK,
or BLUE.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured RED , or
BROWN.
If the terminals in the plug are unmarked or you are in any doubt
as to the correct connections, consult a qualified electrician.
If you do not make the proper electrical connections you will
damage your microwave oven and possibly injure yourself.
Neither the manufacturer nor the supplier are liable if this
happens.
MOULDED PLUGS
Should it be necessary to remove a moulded on plug from the
mains cable, it should be cut off and replaced with a suitable
replacement.
The moulded plug cannot be used for any other appliance,
therefore remove the fuse and dispose immediately and safely to
prevent anyone, especially children from plugging it in to a wall
socket, which will create a safety hazard.
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential
that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and
should only be replaced with a flexible cord obtained from the
manufacturer.
Applicable only if moulded plug is fitted.
After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be
refitted. If the fuse cover is lost, a replacement cover is obtained.
The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that of the
coloured insert in the base of the plug or the colour that is
embossed in words in the base of the plug recess or elsewhere
on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a
replacement fuse cover.
Only 13 amp replacement fuses which are ASTA approved to BS
1362 should be fitted

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING : To prevent fire, burns, electric shock and other warnings:
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure high performance
from this oven:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food
preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any other
nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the
oven.
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such
as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
4. Do not operate the oven without the glass tray in place. Be
sure it is properly sitting on the rotating base.
5. Make sure you remove caps or lids prior to cooking when
you cook food sealed in bottles.
6. Do not put foreign material between the oven surface and
door. It could result in excessive leakage of microwave
energy.
7. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. They may
contain impurities which could cause sparks and/or fires
when used during cooking.
8. Do not pop popcorn unless popped in a microwave
approved popcorn popper or unless it's commercially
packaged and recommended especially for microwave
ovens. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield
than conventional popping; there will be a number of
unpopped kernels. Do not use oil unless specified by the
manufacturer.
9. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such
as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc., without first
piercing them several times with a fork.
10. Do not pop popcorn longer than the manufacturer's
directions. (popping time is generally below 3 minutes).
Longer cooking does not yield more popped corn, it can
cause scorchings and fire.
Also, the cooking tray can become too hot to handle or
may break.
11. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance
and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
12. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep
an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition.
13. 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.
14. Always test the temperature of food or drink which has
been heated in a microwave oven before you give it to
somebody, especially to children or elderly people. This
is important because things which have been heated in a
microwave oven carry on getting hotter even though the
microwave oven cooking has stopped.
15. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not
be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode,
even after microwave heating has ended.
16. Keep the waveguide cover clean at all times. Wipe the
oven interior with a soft damp cloth after each use. If you
leave grease or fat anywhere in the cavity it may
overheat, smoke or even catch fire when next using the
oven.
17. Never heat oil or fat for deep frying as you cannot control
the temperature and doing so may lead to overheating
and fire.
18. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed
eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when
handling the container.

General Use
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to follow and safeguards to assure top performance from this
oven:

5
Microwave function only
Utensils and cooking containers used in a microwave oven
should be of a material that does not act as a barrier to
microwave energy. Generally this means that you should cook
in either (paper), plastic, glass or ceramic. Metal pans reflect
microwave energy and inhibit cooking, and should not be
used. In addition to material, the shape of the container should
also be considered. Round oval shapes give the most even
cooking. Square or rectangular containers may over-cook
foods in the corners because more energy is absorbed there.
Shallow containers give more even cooking results.
Utensils made of china and ceramic excellent to use in your
microwave oven. Most types of glass are also very good.
Lead crystal glass can crack and should therefore, not be
used. Plastics and paper can also be used, provided they
can withstand the temperature of the heated food. For
cooking only use plastics, which will withstand a temperature
of over 120˚C, e.g. polypropene and polyamide. Some plastic
materials, e.g. melamine, will be heated by the microwave,
and be damaged. To find out if a certain container is suitable,
the following simple test can be made:
Place the empty container and a glass of water inside the
microwave oven. The water is needed because the oven
must not be operated empty or with empty containers only.
Let the oven work on full power for one minute. A suitable
container will only be lukewarm.
Metal containers, e.g. saucepans or frying pans should not
be used in microwave ovens. Nor should plates or vessels
with decorations be used since metal e.g. gold, might be part
of the decoration and such decorations will be damaged.
Small pieces of aluminiuum foil can be
used, but only to shield the areas that
would over-cook (e.g. for covering
chicken wings, leg tips and fish tails) but
the foil must not touch the side of the
oven as damage may occur.
TO AVOID EXPLOSION AND SUDDEN BOILIING 1. Eggs
Never cook eggs in their shells. Steam will build up inside
the shell during cooking and the egg will explode.
If you want to cook or reheat eggs which have not been
broken up by scrambling or mixing, you must always
pierce the yolks or these will also explode. You should
slice shelled hard boiled eggs before you reheat them in
your microwave oven.
2. Piercing
Always pierce food which has a skin or membrane, for
example, potatoes, tomatoes, apples, sausages etc. If you
don't pierce them, steam will build up inside and they may
explode.
3. Lids
Always remove the lids of jars and containers and take
away food containers, before you cook using your
microwave oven. If you don't, then steam and pressure
might build up inside and cause an explosion even after
the microwave cooking has stopped.
WHICH UTENSIL CAN BE USED IN THE OVEN?
WARNING
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be
boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. Visible bubbling
or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave
oven is not always present. this could result in very hot
liquids suddenly boiling over when a spoon or other utensilis
is inserted into the liquid.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a) Do not overheat the liquid.
b) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it
c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing the
container.
e) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil
into the container.

1. Without metal parts or metal trims.
2. Some plastics are heat-proof only to certain temperatures.
Check carefully!
3. It is possible to use aluminium foil to shield deliate areas of
food (this prevents over-cooking).
4. Metal tins can be used in the combination methods, however
if these are very deep, they will greatly reduce the efficiency,
as metal shields the microwave energy from the food.
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 in the microwave oven, make sure
that food, food supports 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.
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
Before use, the user should check that utensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens.

2. Prick the meats, fish or poultry with a fork to prevent bursting.
Steam builds up pressure in meals, fish or poultry which is
tightly covered by a skin or membrance.
3. Reduce suggested cooking times. It is always better to under-
cook foods rather than to overcook them. If a range of times is
stated in a recipe, cook the food at the minimum suggested
time, check for doneness, and then cook slightly longer if
necessary.

GENERAL GUIDE LINES
Since microwave cooking to some extent is different from
traditional cooking, the following general guidelines should be
considered whenever you use your microwave oven
If the food is undercooked
Check if:
• You have selected the correct power level.
• The selected time is sufficient-the times given in the recipes
are approximate. They depend on initial temperature,
weight and density of the food etc.
• The container is appropriate.
If the food is overcooked,i.e. dried out or burnt
Before you cook again, consider whether:
• The power level was too high.
• The set time was too long-the times in the recipes are
approximate. They depend on initial temperature, weight
and density of the food etc.
Points to remember when defrosting
• The shape of the package alters the defrosting time.
Shallow rectangular packets defrost more quickly than a
deep block.
• Separate pieces as they begin to defrost; freef low slices
defrost more easily.
• Shield areas of food with small pieces of foil if they start to
become warm.
• When defrosting, it is better to under thaw the food slightly
and allow the process to finish during the standing time.
The amount of food
The more food you want to prepare the longer it takes. A rule
of thumb is that double amount of food requires almost
double the time. If one potato takes four minutes to cook,
approximately seven minutes are required to cook two
potatoes.
Starting temperature of food
The lower the temperature of the food which is being put into
the microwave oven, the longer time it takes. Food at room
temperature will be reheated more quickly than food at
refrigerator temperature.
Composition of the food
Food with a lot of fat and sugar will be heated faster than
food containing a lot of water. Fat and sugar will also reach a
higher temperature than water in the cooking process.
The more dense the food, the longer it takes to heat. “Very
dense” food like meat takes longer time to reheat than lighter,
more porous food like sponge cakes.
Size and shape
Smaller pieces of food will cook more quickly than larger
pieces and uniform pieces of food cook more evenly than
irregularly shaped foods.
With unevenly shaped food, the thinner
parts will cook faster than the thicker areas.
Place the thinner chicken wings and legs to
the centre of the dish.
Stirring, turning of foods
Stirring and turning of foods are techniques used in
conventional and well as in microwave cooking to distribute
the heat quickly to the centre of the dish and avoid over-
cooking at the outer edges of the food.
Covering food helps:
• To reduce spattering
• To shorten cooking times
• To retain food moisture
All covering, which will allow microwaves to pass through are
suitable-See above “Which utensils can be used in the
oven?”
Releasing pressure in foods
Several foods are tightly covered by a skin or membrane.
These foods should be pricked with a fork or cocktail stick to
release the pressure and to prevent bursting, as steam builds
up within them during cooking. This applies to potatoes,
chicken livers, sausages, egg yolks and some fruits.
Standing time
Always allow the food to stand for some time after using the
oven. standing time after defrosting, cooking/reheating
always improves the result since the temperature will then be
evenly distributed through out the food.
In a microwave oven foods continue to cook even when the
microwave energy is turned off. They are no longer cooking
by microwaves, but they are still being cooked by the
conduction of the high residual heat to the centre of the food.
The length of standing time depends on the volume and
density of the food. Sometimes it can be as short as the time
it takes you to remove the food from the oven and take it to
the serving table. However, with larger, denser foods, the
standing time may be as long as 10 minutes. During
‘standing’, the internal temperature of the food will rise by as
much as 8˚C and the food will finish cooking in this time.
Arranging food
This is done in several ways in microwave cooking to give
more even cooking results.
If you are cooking several items of the same
food such as jacket potatoes, place them in a
ring pattern for uniform cooking. When
cooking foods of uneven shapes or thickness,
place the smaller or thinner area of the food
towards the centre of the dish where it will be heated last.
Uneven foods such as fish should be arranged in
the oven with the tails to the centre.
If you are saving a meal in the refrigerator or
‘plating’ a meal for reheating, arrange the
thicker, denser foods to the outside of the
plate and the thinner or less dense foods
in the middle.
Place thin slices of meat on top of each
other or interlace them. Thicker slices such
as meat loaf and sausages have to be
placed close to each other. Gravy or sauce
should be reheated in a separate container.
When you cook or reheat whole fish, score
the skin this prevents cracking.
Shield the tail and head with small pieces of
foil to prevent overcooking but ensure the
foil does not touch the sides of the oven.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
You can often correct operating problems yourself. If
your microwave oven fails to work properly, locate the
operating problem in the chart below and try the
solutions marked for each problems.
If the microwave oven still does not work properly,
contact the nearest Service Center.
Caution:
1. Do not attempt to operate the oven while empty as
this will cause damage.
2. As an exhaust is located in the rear of the oven, install
the oven so as not to block the outlet.
Note:
It is quite normal for steam to be emitted around the
door during the cooking cycle. The door is not intended
to seal the oven cavity completely but its special design
contributes to the complete safety of the appliance.

Q: I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any
food in it. is it damaged?
A: We do not recommend to operating the microwave oven
without any food. However, running the oven empty for a
SHORT time will not damage the oven.
Q: Can I open the door when the oven is operating?
A: The door can be opened anytime durng the oven
operation. Microwave energy will be instantly switched off
and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.
Q: Does microwave energy pass through the viewing
screen in the door?
A: No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven
cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through.
They do not let microwave energy pass through.
Q: My microwave oven causes interference with my TV.
Is this normal?
A: Some radio and TV interference might occur when you
cook with the microwave oven. This interference is similar
to the interference caused by small appliances such as
mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a
problem with your oven.
Q: How can we know whether the oven is operating or
not'?
A: Oven is operating only when the door is closed.
The operation of fan moter is same as the oven's
operating.
Q: Why does my oven light dim?
A: When cooking with DEF power, the oven must cycle to
obtain the selected power levels. The oven light dims and
clicking noises can be heard when the oven cycles.
Q: When is the oven light on and off?
A: The oven light is on during the cooking time.
Q: Why does steam accumulate on the oven door?
A: During cooking, steam is given off from the food. Most of
the steam is removed from the oven by the air which
circulates in the oven cavity.
However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces
such as the oven door. This is normal.
Q: Sometimes warm air comes from the oven vents.
Why?
A: The heat given off from the cooking food warms the air in
the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out of the oven
by the air flow pattern in the oven. There are no
microwave in the air. The oven vents should never be
blocked during cooking.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Turn the oven off before cleaning.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or
spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp
cloth. Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very
dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap
and water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To prevent
damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water
should not be allowed to seep into the ventillation
openings.
If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry
cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on
Control Panel.
If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the
oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when
the microwave oven is operated under high humidity
conditions and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for
cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a
dishwasher.
The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned
regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom
surface of the oven with mild detergent or window cleaner
and dry. The roller guide may be washed in mild sudsy
water or in a dishwasher.
