MICROWAVE/GRILL/CONVECTION OVEN OWNER’S MANUAL PLEASE READ THIS OWNER’S MANUAL THOROUGHLY BEFORE OPERATING.
Precautions Precautions to avoid possible exposure to excessive microwave energy. When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, delayed eruptive boiling can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken: You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism.
Contents How the Microwave Oven Works Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves and ordinary daylight. Normally, microwaves spread outwards as they travel through the atmosphere and disappear without effect. Microwave ovens, however, have a magnetron which is designed to make use of the energy in microwaves. Electricity, supplied to the magnetron tube, is used to created microwave energy. These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven.
Unpacking & Installing By following the basic steps on these two pages you will be able to quickly check that your oven is operating correctly.

The temperature and density of food varies, I would recommend that the food is checked before cooking commences. Pay particular attention to large joints of meat and chicken, some foods should not be completely thawed before cooking. For example fish cooks so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin cooking while still slightly frozen. The BREAD programme is suitable for defrosting small items such as rolls or a small loaf. These will require a standing time to allow the centre to thaw.
Auto Defrost Guide * Food to be defrosted should be in a suitable microwave proof container and place uncovered on the glass turntable. * If necessary, shield small areas of meat or poultry with flat pieces of aluminum foil. This will prevent thin areas becoming warm during defrosting. Ensure the foil does not touch the oven walls. * Separate items like minced meat, chops, sausages and bacon as soon as possible. * When beep, remove the food from the oven, turn the food over and return to the microwave oven.

To heat or reheat successfully in the microwave, it is important to follow several guidelines. Measure the amount of Food in order to determine the needed to reheat. Arrange the food I a circular pattern for best results. Room temperature Food will heat faster than refrigerated food. Canned foods should be taken out of the can and placed in a microwavable container. The food will be heated more evenly if covered with a microwavable lid or vented plastic wrap. Remove cover carefully to prevent steam burns.

WARNING Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in FIRE and subsequent DAMAGE to the OVEN. Important safety instructions Read carefully and keep for future reference 1 Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven.
Important safety instructions Read carefully and keep for future reference 24 Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. 36 The microwave oven must be operated with the decorative door open. 25 When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. 37 This connection may be achieved by having the plug accessible or by incorporation a switch in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
Microwave-safe Utensils Never use metal or metal trimmed utensils in your microwave oven Paper Paper plates and containers are convenient and safe to use in your microwave oven, provided that the cooking time is short and foods to be cooked are low in fat and moisture. Paper towels are also very useful for wrapping foods and for lining baking trays in which greasy foods such as bacon are cooked. In general, avoid coloured paper products as the colour may run.
Food characteristics & Microwave cooking Moisture content of food Keeping an eye on things Since the heat generated from microwaves tends to evaporate moisture, relatively dry food such as roasts and some vegetables should either be sprinkled with water prior to cooking or covered to retain moisture. The recipes in the book have been formulated with great care, but your success in preparing them depends on how much attention you pay to the food as it cooks. Always watch your food while it cooks.
Food characteristics & Microwave cooking Stirring To Clean Your Oven Stirring is one of the most important of all microwaving techniques. In conventional cooking, food is stirred for the purpose of blending. Microwaved food, however, is stirred in order to spread and redistribute heat. Always stir from the outside towards the centre as the outside of the food heats first. 1 Keep the inside of the oven clean Food spatters or spilled liquids stick to oven walls and between seal and door surface.
