CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect
the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Turn the oven off before cleaning.
Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food spatters or
spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp cloth.
Mild detergent may be used if the oven gets very dirty.
The use of harsh detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
The outside oven surface should be cleaned with soap and
water, rinsed and dried with a soft cloth. To prevent damage
to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be
allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on Control Panel.
If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the
oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the
microwave oven is operated under high humidity conditions
and in no way indicates malfunction of the unit.
It is occasionally necessary to remove the glass tray for cleaning.
Wash the tray in warm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.
The roller guide and oven cavity floor should be cleaned
regularly to avoid excessive noise.
Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent
water or window cleaner and dry. The roller guide may be
washed in mild sudsy water.
ROLLER GUIDE
The ROLLER GUIDE and oven floor should be
cleaned frequently to prevent excessive noise.
The ROLLER GUIDE MUST ALWAYS be used for
cooking together with the Glass Tray.
Glass Tray
GLASS TRAY
DO NOT operate the oven without the Glass Tray in
place.
DO NOT use any other Glass Tray with this oven.
If Glass Tray is hot, ALLOW TO COOL before cleaning
or placing it in water.
DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
* Q : I accidentally ran my microwave oven without any food
in it. Is it damaged?
* A : Running the oven empty for a short time will not damage the
oven. However, it is not recommended.
* Q : What does “standing time” mean?
* A : “Standing time” means that food should be removed from
the oven and covered for additional time to allow it to finish
cooking. This frees the oven for other cooking.
* Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or roller guide
removed?
* A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must always be used
in the oven before cooking.
* Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the
microwave cooking guide says?
* A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve
followed directions exactly ; and to see what might cause
variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat
settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the
most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven.
Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions
could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement
along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether
the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with
a conventional cooker.
* Q : Can I open the door when the oven is operating?
* A : The door can be opened anytime during the cooking
operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched
off and the time setting will maintain until the door is closed.
* Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave oven after
cooking?
* A : The moisture on the side of your microwave oven is normal.
It is caused by steam from cooking food hitting the cool oven
surface.
* Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while
empty?
* A : Yes. Never run it empty.
* Q : Does microwave energy pass through the viewing
screen in the door?
* A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy to the oven
cavity. The holes are made to allow light to pass through.
They do not let microwave energy pass through.
* Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without the
turntable or turn the turntable over to hold a large dish?
* A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, you will get poor
cooking results. Dishes used in your oven must fit on the
turntable.
* Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?
* A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to
steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this,
simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never
cook eggs without piercing their shells.
* Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either direction?
* A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or counterclockwise,
depending on the rotation of the motor when the cooking
cycle begins.
* Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? How do I get
the best results?
* A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn following
manufacture’s guidelines. Do not use regular paper bags.
Use the “listening test” by stopping the oven as soon as the
popping slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop
unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.
* Q : Why this standing time recommended after the cooking
operation has been completed?
* A : Standing time is very important.
With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the
oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the
cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed
from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large
vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook
completely, without overcooking the outside.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Utensil Guide
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the
dish used. Care must therefore be taken choosing the utensil. If the utensil is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The
following table lists various of utensil and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven.

USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY
General Use
Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are
damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken.
Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven.
Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in
the oven. They may catch on fire.
Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain
impurities which may cause sparks or fires.
Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can
damage the oven.
Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the
door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with
a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or
pads.
Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child
hanging on an open door.
This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to
you and damage to the oven.
Food
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the
oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even
out, stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after
heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you
should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir
before, during and after heating.
Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn.
Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the commercially
prepared Microwave Popcorn product. The kernels can
overheat and ignite a brown paper bag.
Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly on the
oven tray. Place the package on a microwave safe glass or
ceramic plate to avoid overheating and cracking the oven tray.
Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers
suggested popping time.
Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can result in
scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcorn bag and tray can
be too hot to handle. Remove with caution and use pot holders.
Never use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven
is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned
food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.
Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to
undercook rather than overcook foods.
Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more
cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done.
Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture
carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire.
Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs
can explode.
Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of
food with non-porous skins.
These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.
Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.
ARCING
If you see arcing, open the door and correct the problem.
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.
Arcing is caused by:
• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennas).
• Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmed dishes,
in the microwave.
• Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being
used in the microwave.
24
MICROWAVING PRINCIPLES
Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in World War ll.
Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources.
Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.
HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD
▲
In a microwave oven, electricity
is converted into microwave by
the MAGNETRON.
TRANSMISSION
Then they pass through the cooking
containers to be absorbed by the
water molecules in the food, all foods
contain water to a more or lesser
extent.
▲
▲
REFLECTION
ABSORPTION
The microwaves bounce
off the metal walls and
the metal door screen.
The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate which
causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then cooks the food.
Microwaves are also attracted to fat and sugar particles, and
foods high in these will cook more quickly. Microwaves can only
penetrate to a depth of 11/2 - 2 inches(4-5cm) and as heat
spreads through the food by conduction, just as in a traditional
oven, the food cooks from the outside inwards.

COOKING TECHNIQUES
STANDING TIME
STARTING TEMPERATURE
Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes and cakes, require
standing time(inside or outside of the oven) after cooking, to allow
heat to finish conducting to cook the center completely. Wrap
meat joints and jacket potatoes in aluminium foil while standing.
Meat joints need approx. 10-15 minutes, jacket potatoes 5
minutes. Other foods such as plated meal, vegetables, fish etc
require 2-5 minutes standing. After defrosting food, standing time
should also be allowed. If food is not cooked after standing time,
return to the oven and cook for additional time.
The colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Food from a
fridge takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature.
LIQUIDS
All liquids must be stirred before and during heating. Water
especially must be stirred before and during heating, to avoid
eruption. Do not heat liquids that have previously been boiled. DO
NOT OVERHEAT.
TURNING & STIRRING
MOISTURE CONTENT
Some foods require stirring during cooking. Meat and poultry
should be turned after half the cooking time.
Many fresh foods e.g. vegetables and fruit, vary in their moisture
content throughout the season, particularly jacket potatoes. For
this reason cooking times may have to be adjusted. Dry
ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dry out during storage so cooking
times may differ.
ARRANGING
Individual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, should be placed
on a dish so that the thicker parts are towards the outside.
DENSITY
QUANTITY
Porous airy foods heat more quickly than dense heavy foods.
Small quantities cook faster than large quantities, also small
meals will reheat more quickly than large portions.
CLING FILM
Cling film helps keep the food moist and the trapped steam
assists in speeding up cooking times. Pierce before cooking to
allow excess steam to escape. Always take care when removing
cling film from a dish as the build-up of steam will be very hot.
PIERCING
The skin or membrane on some foods will cause steam to build
up during cooking. These foods must be pierced or a strip of skin
should be peeled off before cooking to allow the steam to escape.
Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc, will all need to be pierced
before cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIR
SHELLS.
SHAPE
Even shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better by microwave when
in a round container rather than square.
COVERING
SPACING
Cover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish,
vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes, sauces,
jacket potatoes or pastry items.
Foods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart. NEVER pile
foods on top of each other.
26
DEFROSTING GUIDE
• When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened in all
areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave oven very briefly,
or let stand a few minutes. After defrosting, allow food to
stand 5-60 minutes if there are any icy areas.
Poultry and fish may be placed under running cool water until
defrosted
➪ Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkey breasts, hot
dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops.
➪ Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops,
hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafood pieces,
chunks of meat such as stew beef.
➪ Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protect thin areas
or edges of unevenly shaped foods such as chicken wings.
To prevent arching, do not allow foil to come within 1-inch of
oven walls or door.
➪ Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portions should be
removed from the oven at this point. This may shorten defrost
time for food weighing less than 3 lbs.(1350g).
• Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allow cooking to
take place. Always remove outer wrap and tray. Use only
containers that are microwave-safe.
• Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down. Begin
defrosting roasts fat-side-down.
• The shape of the package alters the defrosting time. Shallow
rectangular shapes defrost more quickly than a deep block.
• After 1/3 of the defrost time has elapsed, check the food. Toy
may wish to turn over, break apart, rearrange or remove
thawed portions of the food.
• During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn the over. At
this point, open oven door and check the food. Follow the
techniques listed below for optimum defrost results.
Then, close oven door, touch the START pad to complete
defrosting.

COOKING & REHEATING CHART
Reheating chart
• Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns.
• When heating pre-packaged ready-cooked foods, always follow the pack instructions carefully.
• If you freeze foods which were bought from the fresh or chilled counters, remember that they should be thoroughly thawed before
following the heating instructions on the packed. It’s worth putting a note on them so that other members of the household will
remember too.
• Remember metal ties and transfer food from foil containers before reheating.
• Chilled(refrigerated) food takes longer to reheat than food at room temperature (such as just-cooled food or food from the store
cupboard).
• All foods should be reheated using full microwave power.
