Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. This microwave is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the microwave be provided. Using a high voltage is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing microwave damage.
**WARNING
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
NOTE:**

• If you have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions, consult a qualified electrician or service person.
• Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the microwave or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.
  The wires in this mains cable are colored in accordance with the following code:
  Green and Yellow = EARTH
  Blue = NEUTRAL
  Brown = LIVE

Microwave cooking principles

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at  least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to the outside.

Before you call for service
If the microwave fails to operate:

• Check to ensure that the microwave is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely.
• Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance.
• Check to ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set.
• Check to ensure that the door is securely closed engaging the door safety lock system. Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow into the microwave.
  If none of the above rectifies the situation, then contact a qualified technician. Do not try to adjust or repair the microwave yourself.

Utensils guide

• Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
• Microwaves can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
• Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
• Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommended, as food in corners tends to overcook.
• Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.

Cooking

• If possible, cook food covered with material suitable for use in the microwave. Only cook food without a cover if you want to keep it crusty.
• Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too high. The food can dry out, burn or catch firein some places.
• Do not use the appliance to cook eggs or snails in their shells, because they can explode. With fried eggs, pierce the yolks first.
• Prick food with “skin” or “peel”, such as potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with a fork several times before cooking so that the food does not explode.
• For chilled or frozen food, set a longer cooking time.
• Dishes that contain sauce must be stirred from time to time.
• Vegetables that have a firm structure, such as carrots, peas or cauliflower, must be cooked in water.
• Turn larger pieces after half of the cooking time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porcelain, ceramic or earthenware with small holes, e.g. on handles or unglazed bottoms. Moisture going into the holes can cause the cookware to crack when it is heated.
• The glass cooking tray is a workspace for heating food or liquids. It is necessary for the operation of the microwave. Defrosting meat, poultry, fish
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned plate with a container below it so that the defrosting liquid collects in the container.
• Turn the food after half of the defrosting time. If possible, divide and then remove the pieces that started to defrost.

Defrosting butter or similar
• Do not fully defrost the food in the appliance but let it defrost at room temperature. This gives a more even result. Fully remove all metal or aluminum packaging before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables, which are to be further prepared while raw, in the appliance. Let them defrost at room temperature.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

Power setting table

PROBLEM|

REMEDY

---|---
You cannot find details for the amount of food prepared.| Look for similar food. Increase or shorten the length of the cooking times  according to the following rule: Double the amount = almost double the time Half the amount = half the time
The food got too dry.| Set shorter cooking time or select lower microwave power.
The food is not defrosted, hot or cooked after the time came to an end.| Set longer cooking time or set higher power. Note that large dishes need longer time.
After the cooking time comes to an end, the food is overheated at  the edge but is still not ready in the middle.| Next time set a lower power and a longer time. Stir liquids halfway through, e.g. soup.

Defrosting
Always defrost roast with the fat side down. Do not defrost covered meat because this may cause cooking instead of defrosting. Always defrost whole poultry breast side down.
Cooking
Always remove chilled meat and poultry from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking. Let the meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables stay covered after cooking. Brush a little oil or melted butter over the fish. Add 3045ml of cold water for every 250g of vegetables. Cut the fresh vegetables into even size pieces before cooking.   Cook all vegetables with a  cover on the container.
Reheating
When you reheat packed ready meals always follow the instructions written on the packaging.

Refer to the safety chapters.
Notes on cleaning:

• To clean front panel fingerprint-resistant stainless steel simply wipe with a soft cloth using warm water and a mild detergent. DO NOT use stainless steel cleaners, abrasive cleaners or harsh solvents.

**INSTALLATION

**

CAUTION
Do not block the air vents. If you do that, the appliance can overheat.
CAUTION
Do not connect the appliance to adapters or extension leads. This can cause overloading and risk of fire.
• Put the appliance far away from steam, hot air and water splashes.
• If the appliance is stored/ transported at sub-zero temperatures, do not activate it immediately after installation. Allow at least two hours for it to be brought up to room temperature before turning on the unit.
Installation
• Remove all packing material and any promotional material from the microwave oven.
• Examine the oven for any damage such as dents or a broken door. Do not install if the oven is damaged. Call the service center.
• Remove the protective film on the oven cabinet surface. Do not remove the light brown Mica cover that is attached to the right-hand side of the oven cavity to protect the magnatron.
• Do not leave the packing material so that small children can play with it. This can be hazardous.
• Select a flat, level surface that provides enough open space for the intake and outlet vents and that is strong enough to bear the weight of the oven. A minimum  clearance of 7.5cm is required between the oven and any adjacent walls. Leave a minimum clearance 30cm above the oven.Blocking the intake or outlet vents can damage the oven.  If air vents are blocked during operation, the oven may overheat, and this may lead to malfunctioning. Hot air escapes from the vents, so be sure not to obstruct it or let curtains come between the oven and the rear wall. NOTE: It is recommended to have greater than 7.5cm clearance on at least one of  the sides to improve product performance and operation.
• The oven should be placed in a stable position to avoid the possibility of causing vibration or noise.
• Do not remove the legs from the bottom of the oven.
• This oven should only be installed freestanding; not built-in or in a cabinet.
• Keep the oven away from heat and water. Exposure to heat and water can lower the efficiency and lead to malfunctioning.
• Place the oven as far away from radios and TV as possible. Operation of the oven may cause interference to your radio or TV reception.
• When there is interference, it may be reduced or eliminated by taking the following measures:
– Clean door and sealing surface of the microwave oven.
– Reorient the receiving antenna of the radio and/or television.
– Move the microwave oven away from the  receiver.
– Plug the microwave oven into a different outlet so that microwave oven and receiver are on different branch circuits.
