MICROWAVE OVEN

1. Microwave isa kind ofhigh frequency electromagneticwave, which iscommonly distributed inthe nature.
But the existingform of microwaveis dispersed sothat it cannotbe collected togetherfor heating purpose.
The key component of magnetronof microwave ovenwill transform theenergy of electricityto microwave
and huge energyof microwave fieldis established underthe closed cavity. So themolecule of foodis caused
to vibrate atvery high speedand the frictionheat produced willcook the foodin a fastway.
2. There is 3 properlyof microwave ,that is
a) Absorbability, the microwavecan cause theexcess vibration ofmolecule of variousfood so asto obtain the
heating purpose. Butthe infiltration abilityis largely dependon the size,thickness and propertiesof the food.
b) Penetrability, microwave canpenetrate through ceramics,glass, temperature-resistant plastics.It is
required to usethe containers whosematerial have goodmicrowave penetrability toachieve best heating
result. See thebelow utensils guide.
c) Reflectivity, microwave wouldbe reflected bythe metal wallof interior cavityso as toestablish an even
magnetic field, thuscan prevent theoverheating of partialarea.
1) To ensure sufficient ventilation, thedistance of backof oven tothe wall orcabinet should beat least 10cm,
side of ovento the wallor cabinet shouldbe at least5cm, the topof oven tothe ceiling orcabinet should be
at least 20cm.
2) Do notplace any objecton the topof oven.
3) The position of theoven shall besuch that itis far fromthe TV, Radio orantenna as picturedisturbance
or noise mayoccur.
3) The oven shall beso installed thatthe plug isaccessible.

Operation theory of Microwave oven
Installation of Microwave Oven
For the first use
Utensils guide
It is strongly recommended to use the containers which are suitable and safe for microwave cooking. Generally
speaking, the containers which are made of heat-resistant ceramic, glass or plastic is suitable for microwave
cooking. But the following safeguards must be followed:
1. Never use the metal containers for microwave as spark is likely to occur.
2. The heat-resistant plastic is not suitable for long time cooking.
3. Never use the heat-resistant ceramic which are decorated with metal or glazed. .
4. Plastic film is not suitable for cooking chops and meat, as over temperature may do damage to the film.
As there is manufacturing residue or oil remained on the oven cavity or heat element ,it usually would
smell the odor,even a slight smoke ,It is normal case and would not occur after several times use ,Keep
the door or window open to ensure good ventilation
So it is strongly recommended to operate as follows place a cup of water in the turntable ,setting at high
power and operate for several times

SUDDENLYBOILING OVER WHEN THECONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL ISINSERTED
INTO THELIQUID.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

CAUTION: MICROWAVE RADIATION
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
a) Do not atempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result
in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue
to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close
properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door(bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or
loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 electrical 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.
WARNING -IMPROPER USE OF THEGROUNDING CAN RESULTIN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or it doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either;
1) If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3 wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug, and a 3-socket receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance, or
2) Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
