Microwave Oven / User Manual
Accessories
Glass plate
Use the glass plate during cooking, as this will
serve to collect cooking juices and food remnants
and prevent these from dirtying the base of the
microwave oven.
•The glass plate can be washed in a dishwasher.
•Place the glass plate onto the rotating base.
Rotating base
The rotating base must be placed below the glass
plate. Do not place any other plate apart from the
supplied glass plate onto the rotating base. Wash
the rotating base with warm and soapy water at
least once a week.
The rotating base must be fit securely into its
seating.
Microwave oven cookware
Use round cookware for cooking instead of elliptic
or rectangular cookware. Otherwise, the food that
remains on the edges will be effected more by the
microwave and edges will get overcooked.
•Microwave can pass through substances such as
paper, plastic, glass and ceramic without produc-
ing any heat. Cookware made of such materials
can be suitable for use in cooking in some cases.
3 Description of the product
•You can employ the following method to check
whether the cookware you will put your food is
suitable for microwave cooking.
Place the empty cookware with a glass full of
water on it onto the glass plate in microwave oven
and select and run Max power level for 60 seconds.
Cookware that overheat after this process should
not be used.
Metal cookware - foils
Metal cookware reflects the microwaves away
from the food. Therefore, do not use them.
Aluminum foil in small pieces or stripes can be used
to cover wings or legs, or the parts that remain on
the edge such as thin tips of the joints of poultry.
Flat cooking trays with a depth less than 1.5 cm
on the edges can also be used; however, in such
grease proof paper and cling film should be used
instead of foil.
Glass cookware
Very thin glass cookware and crystal with lead
content should not be used.
Plastic cookware - bags
Melamine cookware and lids as well as the bags
used for freezing or preservation should not be
used.
Paper
Do not use any type of paper during cooking in the
microwave oven.
Wooden or wicker cookware
Large wooden cookware should not be used as
the microwave energy causes the wood get dry
and crispy.
Microwave Oven / User Manual
14 / 21 EN
Placing the food
•You will get the best results if you scatter the
food into the plate. This may be achieved in vari-
ous ways to get better results.
•If you will cook too many pieces of the same type
(such as potatoes with skin) place them in a cir-
cular form.
•When cooking food with different shapes and
thicknesses, place the smallest and thinnest
part into the middle of your cookware. Thus, you
can have that piece cooked last.
•Place food with irregular shape such as fish in a
way that their tails will be in the middle of the
cookware.
•When storing a meal in the refrigerator or heat-
ing it, place the thick and dense ones to out and
thin and less dense ones in.
•Place thin sliced meat pieces on top of each
other.
•Thicker pieces such as sausage and chopped
meat should not be placed close to each other.
•Heat broth and sauces in separate cookware.
Prefer narrow and long cookware to wide and
long ones. Do not fill more than 2/3 of the cook-
ware when heating broth, sauce or soup.
•If you will cook whole fish, make some cuts on it;
thus you will prevent skin from bursting.
•Cover the head and tail parts of the fish with alu-
minum foil to protect them against overcooking.
•If you are using cling film, a cooking bag or
grease proof paper, make a hole or leave a small
opening in order to allow steam get out.
•Food with small pieces will get cooked sooner
than the ones with large pieces and the ones
with regular shapes will get cooked sooner than
the ones with irregular shapes. Cut the food in
even sizes and regularly to cook them in the best
way possible.
4 Operating your product
Useful suggestions
To defrost:
•Shape of the package may change the defrost
time. Shallow rectangular packages will defrost
quicker than the deep cookware.
•Separate the pieces from each other as they get
defrosted. Thus other pieces will defrost easier.
•Cover the parts of the food that start heating
with small pieces of foil. Wood toothpicks will
help keeping the foil in place.
Amount of food
The more food you cook the more time it will take.
Double amount of food mean double amount of
time.
Moisture content
Cooking time will change depending of the amount
of juice as microwave is sensitive to moisture. Food
with natural juice (vegetables, fish and poultry)
will get cooked quickly and easily. Adding water is
suggested when cooking dry food such as rice and
beans in microwave.
Condensation
Moisture in food items may sometimes cause
condensation inside the oven during cooking. This
is normal. Generally, foods that are covered will
cause less condensation.
Sugar
Follow the suggestions in microwave cooking
books when cooking food items such as pudding or
tart which contain too much sugar or butter. If you
exceed the suggested time, you may cause the
food item get burned or the oven get damaged.

4 Operating your product
Reducing the pressure in foods
Many food items are covered with skin of shell.
They may crack due to the pressure that builds up
during cooking. To avoid this, the skin or shell must
be punctured with a fork or knife. This process
must be applied to potato, chicken liver, egg yolk,
sausage and some fruits.
Mixing and turning the food
during cooking
Mixing and turning the food is important in terms
of cooking all parts evenly.
Different cooking times
Always start by trying the minimum cooking time
and check whether the food is cooked or not.
Cooking times in this user manual are approximate
values. Cooking times may vary depending on the
sizes and shapes of the foods and cookware.
Resting time
Always keep the food resting for some time after
taking it from the microwave oven. Resting food for
some time after defrosting, cooking and reheating
will always give better results. Because the heat
of the food will dissipate well. In microwave ovens,
foods continues to cook for some more time even
after the microwave oven is switched off. Cooking
continues not because of the microwave oven but
the energy inside the food. The resting time may
change depending on the meal. In some cases, this
duration is as short as it takes you to take the meal
from the microwave oven and transfer it to the
service plate. This time may take up to 10 minutes
and depends on the type and size of the food.
Operating your oven
1. Always plug your oven into grounded sockets.
2. Open the front door.
3. Place the meal or meal tray on the rotary tray in
the oven.
4. Turn the time setting button in clockwise to set
the desired time. First pass the desired time a
little bit to make the time setting correctly. Then
go back to the desired time.
5. Close the front door securely. Your oven’s light
will turn on and it will start. Oven will not start if
the door is not closed securely.
6. Open the door from time to time to mix or check
the meal (this may disturb the cooking process).
Cooking process and time setting will stop when
you open the front door and will resume when
the front door is closed again.
7. You can stop the oven by opening the front door
during cooking. Do not forget to set the time
to (0) position if you do not want to continue
cooking.
8. Buzzer will be activated at the end of the set
cooking time. Oven light turns off and cooking
ends automatically.

Defrosting
Defrosting food in a short time is one of the
biggest advantages of the microwave oven. First
remove the metal fastening wires of the frozen
food bags and replace them with thread or rubber.
Open the packaging made of materials such as
cardboard before placing them into the oven. Cut
or pierce the plastic bags or packages. If the food
is in foil packaging, remove the foil and place the
food in a suitable vessel. (If the frozen food has
skin, remove the skin.) Flex the plastic bag on the
food to provide even defrosting.
(While defrosting large pieces of meat, do not
forget to cover the thin parts of the poultry in
order to slow down heating. Otherwise, outer
parts will dry out or even start being cooked.)
Always keep the defrost time short. If inside of the
defrosted food is still frozen, place it back to the
microwave oven to defrost it some more.
Duration of the defrosting time depends on food’s
level of freezing. If possible, turn or take apart the
frozen food during defrosting.
Defrosting table contains approximate values to
help you.

Heating
You can reheat the remaining or cooked food
quickly and effectively without loosing their
freshness and taste.
During heating, cover the food with a lid or cling
film suitable for microwave cooking in order to
allow the food to remain moist. Covering the food
will protect the heat and speed up the heating
process. It will also avoid splashes. Wrap the
sandwiches and cookies in paper towels in order to
allow moisture absorption and prevent them from
getting doughy.
Generally spread the food into a shallow vessel. It
may be necessary to mix and turn the food from
time to time to heat it.

and soapy cloth. And dry again with a soft cloth.
•To remove the odours inside the oven, boil a mix-
ture of water and a few table spoons of lemon
juice for a couple of minutes inside the oven.
•To clean the inner base of the oven, remove
the roller glass tray and roller support. Wash
the roller glass tray and roller support in soapy
water. Then, rinse and dry them.
•Before starting the oven, install the roller sup-
port and glass tray securely.
•When cleaning the inner surfaces of the oven
door, use a non-abrasive soft sponge or cloth.
For transportation;
•Unplug the appliance.
