• Pastry, bread and the like can be defrosted directly in a bread basket or on a paper towel.
• If frozen food is heated in its packaging, the packaging should be opened. Packaging containing metal or metal decoration must not be used unless specifically recommended for use in the microwave oven. Remove metal clips and wire ties.
• Put large, thick pieces close to the edge of the casserole and try to cut the food into even sized pieces. Always place the food in the centre of the microwave oven.
• The food will be evenly cooked if you stir or turn it a few times during cooking.
• Always set a shorter cooking time than indicated in your recipe to avoid over cooking.
• Use little or no water for vegetables.
• Use less salt and spices than for ‘normal’ cooking.
• Allow a few minutes standing time after the oven hasswitched off to ensure complete and even cooking results.
• Use pot holders or gloves when taking dishes and foo d out from the oven as they will be hot.
• During cooking, water vapour is released from the food and the humid air is vented throught the upper slot between the door and the trim.
• It is normal for this humid air to condense into water droplets on the upper part of the stainless steel trim if food is left in the microwave with the door shut at the end of the cooking cycle.
• This is not a product fault and in no way affects the performance or safety of the product. In order to avoid this condensation, it is recommended that food is removed from the microwave oven at the end of the cooking cycle.

• Melting chocolate – Break 100g of chocolate into squares, place in a bowl and heat on high power for 1-2 minutes and stir well.
• Softening or melting butter – Melting takes a few seconds on high power. Softening is best done on low power.
• Freshen or warm bread – Use medium power for a few seconds.
• Peeling garlic easily – Heat 3 or 4 cloves of garlic on high power for 15 seconds. Squeeze at one end until the clove pops out.
• Fruit juice – Citrus fruits will yield more juice if they are heated on high power for 15 seconds before squeezing.

You should clean the outside surfaces of the microwave oven with mild liquid detergent and warm water, followed by a wiping with clean water to remove any excess detergent. Dry with a soft cloth. Spray-on window cleaners or all purpose spray-on kitchen cleaners can also be used. To prevent damage to the working parts, do not allow water to seep into ventilation openings.

CAUTION
Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads or harsh chemicals on the outside surfaces of your appliance.

CAUTION
Do not change or make any adjustments or repairs to any part of the microwave oven. Repairs should only be done by a qualified service technician. This includes the replacement of the interior light bulb as it requires the removal of a cover which protects against exposure to dangerous microwave energy
