GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly
installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is recommended that
a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and
may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
Note:
If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a
qualified electrician or service person.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection
procedures.
The wires in this cable main are colored in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow = EARTH
Blue = NEUTRAL
Brown = LIVE
RADIO INTERFERANCE
Operation of the microwave oven can cause interference to your radio, TV, or similar
equipment.
When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following
measures:
Clean door and sealing surface of the oven.
Reorient the receiving antenna of radio or television.
Relocate the microwave oven with respect to the receiver.
Move the microwave oven away from the receiver.
Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver
are on different branch circuits.

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as
needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken
and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom
and from the center of the dish to the outside.
UTENSILS GUIDE
The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows
energy to pass through the container and heat the food.
Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so aluminum foils, metal utensils or dishes with
metallic trim should not be used.
Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain
small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in
corners tends to overcook.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.

COOKING TIPS
The following factors may affect the cooking result:
Food arrangement
Place thicker areas towards outside of dish, the thinner part towards the centre and
spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
Cooking time length
Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after it times out and extend it
according to the actual need. Over cooking may result in smoke and burns.
Cooking food evenly
Food such as chicken, hamburger or steak should be turned once during cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to centre of dish once or
twice during cooking
Allow standing time
After cooking times out, leave the food in the oven for an adequate length of time, this
allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cooling it down in a gradual manner
Whether the food is done
Color and hardness of food help to determine if it is done, these include:
Steam coming out from all parts of food, not just the edge
Joints of poultry can be moved easily
Pork or poultry shows 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. Also, the preheating time specified in the dish instruction manual
must not be exceeded
