Getting Started Before first use • Unpack the appliance and remove any packing materials from the interior. Keep all packaging materials until you have made sure your new microwave oven is undamaged and in good working order. Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, so ensure all packaging materials are out of their reach. • Unwind the power supply cord to its full length and inspect it for damage.
Getting Started (Cont.) Microwave cookware guide • Cookware used in a microwave oven must be microwave safe. The following materials or utensils are generally considered microwave safe: heat-resistant glass, heat-resistant ceramics, microwave safe plastic, and kitchen paper. Glass that is not heat-resistant is not suitable for use in a microwave oven. • We recommend round/oval dishes for microwave cooking rather than square/ oblong ones, as food in the corners of a container tends to overcook.
Getting Started (Cont.) First connection Plug the microwave oven into a suitable power point. On first connection, we recommend you set the digital clock to the correct time. Setting the clock This microwave oven has a 12 or 24-hour clock. To set it: • Press the CLOCK button once or twice to select a 12-hour or 24-hour clock cycle. • Push in and turn the MENU/TIME dial to set the correct hour, then press CLOCK to confirm.
Instructions Microwave cooking Microwave cooking allows you to customise cooking power and time. First, select a power level by pressing the POWER LEVEL button a number of times (see the table below). Then set the cooking time (maximum 95 minutes), using the MENU/TIME dial, before pressing the START button. After the set time has elapsed, the buzzer will beep every two minutes with "End" in display. Press PAUSE/CANCEL or open the oven door to clear "End" before starting another cooking function.
Instructions (Cont.) Weight defrost This feature automatically sets an appropriate defrosting cycle once you have entered the weight of the food to be thawed. The maximum weight for different food groups varies between 100g and 1800g. Example: To set the oven to defrost 500g of frozen mince: • Place the frozen mince in the microwave oven and close the door. • Press the WEIGHT DEFROST button. • Press the WEIGHT ADJUST button repeatedly until the weight (500g) is displayed.
Instructions (Cont.) Multistage cooking Some recipes may require more than one power level for cooking and/or defrosting. Your oven can be set to change from one to another automatically, for up to two cycles. The respective lights will appear on the menu action screen, indicating which stage the oven is operating in. After the total time has elapsed, beeps will sound to let you know that the program has finished. Logically, Speed Defrost must precede any cooking function in a multistage cooking program.
Instructions (Cont.) Auto cook (preset cooking settings) This microwave oven has several preset cooking settings for cooking particular types and quantities of food automatically, without the need for setting cooking time or power level. Just select the type of food (milk/coffee, rice, spaghetti, potatoes, fish, pizza, popcorn, and auto reheat) and enter its weight or quantity. Details of each program are in the table on the opposite side.
