PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
This appliance is designed for domestic use only!
The appliance should not be operated without food in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this
manner is likely to damage the appliance.
The ventilation openings on the oven must not be covered. Blocking the air intake or exhaust vents may cause
damage to the oven and poor cooking results.
If you practice operating the oven, put a glass of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and
the oven will not be damaged.
Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
Do not use this product near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar.
Do not use the cavity for any storage purposes.
Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
Do not use your microwave oven for deep-frying, because the oil temperature cannot be controlled.
Use hot pads or oven mitts to prevent burns, when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking.
LIQUIDS
e.g. beverages or water. Overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can
occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of
the hot Liquid.
To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:
1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
2. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven.
3. After heating, allow standing for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container from
the oven.
CAREFUL
After heating baby food or liquids in a baby bottle or in a baby food jar, always
stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is
evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.
Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol.
Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
There are a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy,
ensure they are suitable for microwave use.
Ensure that the utensils you use are oven proof and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking.

interior of the oven.
This is especially important with accessories made of metal or metal parts.
If accessories containing metal comes into contact with the oven interior, while the oven is in operation, spark-
ing can occur and the oven could be damaged.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of
the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly
result in a hazardous situation.
Do not use metal scouring pads, abrasive cleansers, steel-wool pads, gritty
washcloths, etc. which can damage the control panel, and the interior and
exterior oven surfaces. Use a cloth with a mild detergent or a paper towel with
spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel.
Use a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent to clean the interior surfaces,
front and rear of the door and the door opening.
Do not use steam cleaning appliances when cleaning your microwave oven.
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required. It must be carried out with the microwave oven
disconnected.
Do not spray directly on the oven.
This oven is designed to operate without the turntable in place.
Do not allow grease or food particles to build up around the door.
This product offers an AUTO CLEAN function,which allows for easy cleaning
of the microwave cavity. For more details,please refer to the AUTO CLEAN
section on page 25.
The Grill element does not need cleaning since the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but the ceiling
beneath it may need regular cleaning. This should be done with a soft and damp cloth with mild detergent.
If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any splashes, in order to
reduce the risk of fire.

Tips and suggestions:
• For a better cleaning result,it is recommended to use a container with a diameter of 17-20cm,and a
height that is lower than 6.5cm.
• It is recommended to use a container of light plastic material that is suitable for the microwave.
• As the container will be hot after the cleaning cycle is complete, it is recommended to use a heat
resistant glove when removing the container from the microwave.
• For a better cleaning effect and removal of unpleasant odors, add some lemon juice to the water.
• The Grill element does not need cleaning since the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but the
ceiling beneath it may need regular cleaning. This should be done with a soft and damp cloth with mild
detergent.
•If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any splashes,in order
to reduce the risk of fire.
