About this microwave oven Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves similar to radio waves. While radio waves may vary in length from one metre to many kilometres, microwaves are very short (less than 12.5 centimetres). Microwaves do not make any heat themselves but only cause water molecules in food to vibrate. This vibration produces heat that cooks the food. This is why your food will come out of the microwave piping hot, when your utensils inside the oven stay much cooler.
Unpacking your microwave oven Before you use your microwave oven 1. Remove all the packaging. Do not remove the small piece of card from the right hand side of the cavity wall. This is called a wave-guide cover and allows the microwaves to pass through to cook the food. Please ensure you keep this cover clean at all time. 2.
Safety instructions To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, other injuries and exposure to excessive microwave oven energy, follow these basic precautions: ➢ Do not use the oven for any reason other than preparing food, such as for drying clothes, paper or any other non-food items, or for sterilising purposes. ➢ Do not use the oven when it is empty. This could damage the oven. ➢ Do not store anything in the oven, such as papers, cookbooks and so on.
Safety instructions To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, other injuries and exposure to excessive microwave oven energy, follow these basic precautions: ➢ Do not use this oven near water, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool ➢ Failure to keep the oven clean could lead to deterioration of the surface. This could badly affect the life of the appliance, and potentially be harmful. ➢ Never remove parts from the oven such as the feet, screws and so on.
Safety instructions ➢ Heat from the contents of a container may be transmitted to the container itself, so please be careful when removing it from the oven. Please remember that the food or liquid inside will be releasing some steam or will be spitting. Never cover any container fully, always leave a gap for steam to escape. ➢ Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. This is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensil.
Safety instructions ➢ Food containing a mixture of fat and water (e.g. stock) should stand for 30 to 60 seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is to allow the mixture to settle and to prevent it from bubbling when a spoon is placed in it, or a stock cube is added. ➢ When heating or cooking food or liquid, remember that there are certain foods (such as Christmas puddings, jam and mincemeat) which heat up very quickly.
Safety instructions To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: ➢ Do not overcook food. ➢ Do not leave the microwave oven unattended while you are using it and if using paper or plastic containers check regularly to ensure they do not ignite. ➢ Remove wire twist-ties from bags before putting the bag in the oven.
Safety instructions Warning: It is dangerous for anyone, other than a qualified person to carry out any service or repair which involves the removal of the cover. This cover gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. Warning: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by an engineer. The door seals are located around the window on the inside of the door.
Microwave oven installation ➢ Place on a level surface that provides enough space for the outlet vents. ➢ A minimum clearance of 7.5cm is required between the oven and any adjacent walls. One side must be open. Leave a minimum clearance of 30cm above the oven. ➢ Place the oven as far away from radios and TV's as possible. Using the oven may cause interference with the reception.

Cleaning and care ➢ Before you clean the oven, turn it off and unplug it. ➢ Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food or liquids stick to the oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth. We recommend that you do not use harsh detergent or abrasives. ➢ On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover, microwaves are passed through this to enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave guide cover is kept clean at all times. To do this wipe with mild detergent and water, then dry.
Cleaning and care ➢ Regularly remove the glass turntable to clean it, and wash it in warm soapy water. ➢ Ensure that the turntable support and oven floor are cleaned regularly. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and water, then dry. You can wash the turntable support in mild soapy water. ➢ When removing the turntable support of the oven, make sure you put it back properly.
Important utensil information ➢ Do not use metal pans or dishes with metal handles without food in the microwave/oven ➢ Do not use anything with a metal trim, without food in the microwave/oven. ➢ Do not use paper covered wire twist-ties on plastic bags. ➢ Do not use melamine dishes as they contain a material which will absorb microwave energy. This may cause the dishes to crack or burn, and will slow down the cooking speed. ➢ Use only cookware that is approved to be used in a microwave oven.
