HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

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.

To get better results for rice use a flat, wide dish.

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.

Reheating
When you reheat packed ready meals always follow the instructions written on the packaging.

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 30-45ml 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.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
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.
• Clean the appliance interior after each use. Then you can remove dirt more easily and it does not burn on.
• Clean stubborn dirt with a special cleaner.
• Clean all accessories regularly and let them dry. Use a soft cloth with warm water and a cleaning agent.
• To soften hard to remove remains, boil a glass of water at full microwave power for 2 to 3 minutes.
• To remove odours, mix a glass of water with 2 tsp of lemon juice and boil at full microwave power for 5 minutes.

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 centre.
• 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.

• Be sure the voltage and frequency where you connect the microwave oven is the same as specified on the rating plate on the microwave oven. If the microwave oven is connected to the socket via an extension cord, make sure the cord is earthed.

WARNING!
If installed near or over a heat source, the microwave oven could be damaged.

WARNING!
This microwave oven must not be used on a non-earth protected power supply. Contact an electrician if you are uncertain regarding electrical connection of the oven or provision of earth protection of the supply.

WARNING!
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
