IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
The following basic precautions should always be followed when using electrical appliances:
-
Read all instructions before using.
-
Make sure the voltage in your living area corresponds to the one shown on the rating label of the appliance. And the wall socket is properly grounded.
-
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook the food.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bags in the oven.
c. Do not heat oil or fat for deep drying as the temperature of the oil cannot be controlled.
d. After use wipe the waveguide cover with a damp cloth, followed by a dry cloth to remove any food splashes and grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to cause smoke or catch fire.
e. If materials inside the oven should smoke or ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply.
f. When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. -
To reduce the risk of explosion and sudden boiling:
a. WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode; Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or teat are considered to be sealed containers.
b. Use the wide-mouthed container to cook liquid, and the cooking liquid should not be removed immediately. Several moments should be waited before removing. In order to avoid possible hazards caused by delayed eruptive boiling of liquids.
c. Potatoes, sausage, and chestnuts should be peeled or pierced before cooking. Eggs in their shell, whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has ended.

UTENSILS GUIDELINE
It is strongly recommended to use containers that are suitable and safe for microwave cooking. Generally speaking, containers which are made of heat- resistant ceramic, glass or plastic are suitable for microwave cooking. Never use metal containers for microwave cooking and combination cooking as spark is likely to occur. You can take the reference of the below table.
| Material of container | Microwave | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Heat-resistant ceramic | Yes | Never use ceramics that are decorated with metal |
rims or glazed
Heat-resistant plastic| Yes| Can not be used for a long time microwave cooking
Heat-resistant glass| Yes|
Plastic film| Yes| It should not be used when cooking meat or chops as the
over-temperature may do damage to the film
Grill rack| No|
Metal container| No| It should not be used in a microwave oven. Microwaves can
not penetrate through metal.
lacquer| No| Poor heat-resistant. Can not be used for High-temperature cooking
Bamboo wood and paper| No| Poor heat-resistant. Can not be used for High-
temperature cooking
COOKING TIPS
The following factors may affect the cooking result:
Food arrangement
Place thicker areas towards the outside of the dish, the thinner part towards
the center, and spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
Cooking time length
Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after it times out, and
extend it according to the actual need. Over cooking may result in smoke and
burns.
Cooking food evenly
Food such as chicken, hamburger, or steak should be turned once during
cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to the
center of the dish once or twice during cooking
Allow standing time
After cooking times out, leave the food in the oven for an adequate length of
time, this allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cool it down in a
gradual manner
Whether the food is done
Color and hardness of food help to determine if it is done, these include:
– Steam coming out from all parts of the food, not just the edge
– Joints of poultry can be moved easily
– Pork or poultry shows no signs of blood
– Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily with a fork
Browning dish
When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent damage to
the turntable and rotating ring.
Microwave-safe plastic wrap
When cooking food with high-fat content, do not allow the plastic wrap comes
into contact with food as it may melt
Microwave-safe plastic cookware
Some microwave-safe plastic cookware might not be suitable for cooking foods
with high fat and sugar content. Also, the preheating time specified in the
dish instruction manual must not be exceeded.
MAINTENANCE
SERVICING
