Precautions Precautions to avoid possible exposure to excessive microwave energy. You cannot operate your oven with the door open due to the safety interlocks built into the door mechanism. These safety interlocks automatically switch off any cooking activity when the door is opened; which in the case of a microwave oven could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to tamper with the safety interlocks.
Precautions Warning Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in the FOOD catching fire and subsequent damage to your oven. When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point 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: 1. Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow necks. 2.

Installation Install your oven by following three simple steps: 1. Remove all packing materials and accessories. 2. Place the oven in the level location of your choice with more than 85cm height but make sure there is at least 10 cm of space on the top and 10cm at the rear for proper ventilation. The side of the oven should be kept clear so there is air flow for ventilation. An exhaust outlet is located on top or side of the oven. Blocking the outlet can damage the oven. 3.
Introduction How the Microwave Oven Works Microwaves are a form of energy similar to radio and television waves and ordinary daylight. Ordinarily, 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 create microwave energy. These microwaves enter the cooking area through openings inside the oven.
Introduction Quantity of foods: The number of microwaves in your oven remains constant regardless of how much food is being cooked. Therefore, the more food you place in the oven, the longer the cooking time. Remember to decrease cooking times by at least one third when halfing a recipe. Stirring: Stirring is one of the most important of all microwaving techniques. In conventional cooking, foods are stirred for the purpose of blending.
Introduction Microwave-Safe Utensils 3. 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. Never use metal or metal trimmed utensils in your microwave oven.
