INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

• Remove the exterior and interior packing.
• Check to be sure you have all of the following parts:
• Glass Tray
• Turntable Roller Assembly (Roller or Roller Ring)
• Instruction Manual
• Inspect the oven after unpacking for any visual damage such as:
• Misaligned Door
• Damaged Door
• Dents or Holes in Door Window and Screen
• Dents in Cavity

If any of the above is visible, DO NOT use the oven.

INSTALLATION OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

• When positioning the microwave oven, it should be set on a flat, steady surface.
• Do not block air vents. If they are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat and eventually cause oven failure.
• Poor television reception and radio interference may result if the oven is located close to a TV, radio, antenna, or antenna wire. Position the oven as far from them as possible.
• Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
• Keep the oven away from hot air, steam or splashing liquids when choosing a place to locate it, otherwise, the unit’s operation may be adversely affected, causing it to break down.
• Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption.
• Plug the appliance into an exclusive properly installed-grounded wall outlet. Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning power and or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized Avanti Products service center.
• DO NOT place anything on the top of the oven.
• Keep the oven at least 5 inches away from both sidewalls and away from rear wall to ensure the proper ventilation.
• DO NOT remove the turn-table drive shaft.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door-open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the : (1) Door ( bent ), (2) Hinges and latches ( broken or loosened), (3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

General Use

• DO NOT attempt to tamper with or make any adjustments or repairs to door, control panel or any other part of the oven. Do NOT remove outer panel from oven. Repairs should only be done by qualified service personnel.
• DO NOT operate the oven empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food or water is present to absorb energy.
• If a fire occurs in the oven, touch the START/PAUSE pad and LEAVE THE DOOR CLOSED. Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
• DO NOT attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in oven. They may catch on fire.
• DO NOT use recycled paper products, as they may contain impurities, which may cause sparks and/or fires when used.
• DO NOT hit or strike control panel. Damage to controls may occur.

Utensils

• METAL CONTAINERS or dishes with metallic rims should not be used. Arcing may occur.

• METAL TWIST-TIES may not be used in the microwave oven.

• DO NOT use SEALED JARS or NARROW NECK bottles for cooking or reheating. They may shatter.

• DO NOT use CONVENTIONAL THERMOMETERS in the microwave oven. They may cause arcing.
  Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places.

• Remove PLASTIC STORE WRAPS before cooking or defrosting in the oven.

RECOMMENDED

• Microwave browning dish – Use to brown exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.
• Microwaveable plastic wrap – Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
• Paper towels and napkins – Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb excess moisture and prevent splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.

Food

• Never use your microwave oven for HOME CANNING. The oven is not designed to permit proper canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.

• COOKING TIMES are approximate. Factors that may affect cooking are starting temperature, altitude, volume, size and shape of food and utensils used. As you become familiar with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these factors.

• It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN OVERCOOK foods. If food is undercooked, it can always be returned to the oven for further cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done. Always start with minimum cooking times.

• SMALL QUANTITIES of food or foods with LOW MOISTURE content can burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long.

• DO NOT boil eggs in their shell. Pressure may build up and the eggs will explode.

• Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole acorn squash and sausage are examples of food with NONPOROUS SKINS. These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.

• POPCORN must be popped in a microwave corn popper. Microwave popped corn produces a lower yield than conventional popping. DO NOT use oven for popcorn unless popped in a microwave approved popcorn utensil or unless it’s commercially packaged and recommended especially for microwave ovens.
  DO NOT use oil unless specified by the manufacturer.

• DO NOT attempt to deep fat fry in your oven.

• HEATED LIQUIDS can ERUPT if not mixed with air. DO NOT heat liquids in your microwave oven without first stirring.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Warning
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power cord supplied.
Do not use the extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volts A.C. ~/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.

OPERATING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN

Although your oven is provided with safety features, it is important to observe the following:

• It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.
• Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent, rinse and wipe dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.
• When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on an opened door or any load which could cause the oven to fall forward and cause injury and damage the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired by a qualified service person. It is particularly important that the oven closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
• Door (bent)
• Hinges and latches (broken or loosened)

COOKING TECHNIQUES

Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these considerations in mind.
Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.
Arrangement
Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable.
Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large foods such as roasts.
Standing
Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas.
All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well at removal and test the temperature before serving.
Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help them cook.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE

• Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.

• Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters 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 surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the
  operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.

• Do not allow the control panel to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use detergents, abrasives or spray-on cleaners on the control panel. When cleaning the control Panel, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.

• 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 ring 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 ring may be washed in mild sudsy water or dishwasher. Cooking vapors collect during repeated use but in no way affect the bottom surface or roller ring wheels. When removing the roller ring from cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it in the proper position.

• Remove odors from your oven by combining a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a deep microwavable bowl. Microwave for 5 minutes. Wipe thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth.

• When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult a dealer to have it replaced.
