ventilation for your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space behind, and on the sides of the oven and 20 cm (8 inches) of space above.

10cm on the side

2. Remove all packing materials inside the oven.
Install the roller ring and turntable. Check that the turntable rotates freely.
9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.
Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power cable away from heated surfaces. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug. 10. Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the door. Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
11. Keep the inside of the oven clean. Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause
paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12. You may notice a Clicking sound during operation(especially when the oven is in
defrosting). Reason: This sound is normal when the electrical power output is changing.
Never block the air vents as the oven may overheat and automatically switch itself off. It will remain inoperable until it has cooled sufficiently. For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 230 Volt, 50Hz, AC earthed socket. If the power cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings like next to a traditional oven or radiator. The power supply specifications of the oven must be respected and any extension cable used must be of the same standard as the power cable supplied with the oven. Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using your microwave oven for the first time.
13. When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut off
automatically for safety. You can operate the oven normally after letting it stand for over 30 minutes.
How a Microwave Oven Works

Cooking Principle

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are
distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly. 2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food. 3. Cooking times vary according to the container used and the properties of the food: Quantity and density Water content Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSRTUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is being heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.

IMPORTANT

Young children or infirm persons should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure: Even cooking of the food right to the centre The same temperature throughout the food

Some recipes require different stages of cooking at different temperatures. You can set multiple stages of cooking with your microwave.

Cooking Techniques

Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

Arrangement

Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.

Shielding

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

Limited Use

Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as roasts.

Standing

Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well and test the temperature before serving.

Not Recommended

Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

General Tips

Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter foods. Foods with a delicate texture should be heated at a low power level to avoid becoming tough. Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking time. When using a new recipe, use the minimum cooking time and check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking. Foods with a non-porous skin such as potatoes or hot dogs, should be pierced to prevent bursting. Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and cause severe burns. Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly inside a jelly doughnut will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in mind to avoid burns. Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because all harmful bacteria may not be destroyed by the microwave heating process. Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat from the food is often transferred to the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing food from the microwave and instruct children to do the same. Making candy in the microwave is not recommended as candy can heat to very high temperatures. Keep this in mind to avoid injury.

Cooking Time:

8-12 min. / 0.5 kg for 50C - Rare 9-13 min. / 0.5 kg for 55C - Medium 10-15 min. / 0.5 kg for 65C - Well Done Power Level: High(0) for first 5 min., then Medium(5).
Utensils & Cover For Sensor Cooking
To obtain good cooking results with this function, follow the directions for selecting appropriate containers and covers in the charts in this book. Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with their lids or with plastic wrap. When using plastic wrap, turn back one corner to allow steam to escape at the proper rate. Always cover with the lid intended for the utensil being used. If the utensil does not have its own lid, use plastic wrap. Fill containers at least half full. Foods that require stirring or rotating should be stirred or turned toward the end of the Sensor Cook cycle, after the time has started to count down on the display. It its not advisable to use the auto sensor cooking feature on a continuous cooking operation, i.e. one cooking operation immediately after another. Install the oven in a well ventilated location for proper cooling and airflow and to ensure the sensor will operate accurately. To avoid poor results, do not use the Auto sensor when the room ambient temperature is too high or too low. Do not use volatile detergent to clean your oven. Moisture resulting from this detergent may affect the sensor. Avoid placing the oven near high moisture or gas emitting appliances, since this will interfere with the proper performance of the Auto Sensor. Always keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe all spills with a damp cloth. This oven is designed for household use only.

Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave
Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode. Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked. Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about cup water. Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones. Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time. Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap. Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting. For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time. Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

Guide for Cooking Vegetables in Your Microwave
Check foods when the oven signals. After the final stage, small sections may still be icy; let them stand to continue thawing. Do not defrost until all ice crystals have thawed. Shielding roasts and steaks with small pieces of foil prevents the edges from cooking before the center of the food has defrosted. Use narrow, flat, smooth strips of aluminum foil to cover the edges and thinner sections of the food.

Troubleshooting Guide
Before you call a repair person for your oven, check this list of possible problems and solutions. glass at High power for five minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes. Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, dont let water seep into the openings. Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on. If Error1 and Error3 are displayed, please let oven cool for at least 5 minutes. If these messages are displayed frequently, please call our service line.

Safety

RECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.

Safety Precautions

Important Safety Instructions. Read Carefully and keep for future reference. Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety precautions are taken.
1. DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:
Metallic containers Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings Skewers, forks, etc. Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since opendoor operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks. (b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. (c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the
(1) Door (bent or dented), (2) Hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) Door seals and sealing surfaces.

2. DO NOT heat:

Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers Ex) Baby food jars Airtight food. Ex) Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode. Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.
3. DO NOT operate the microwave oven when it is empty. Reason: The oven walls may be damaged. Tip: Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times. The water will absorb the
microwaves if you accidentally set the oven going when it is empty.
4. DO NOT cover the rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper. Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the
5. ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven. Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from
the food to the dish.The dishes are therefore hot.
6. DO NOT touch heating elements or interior oven walls. Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn even after cooking has finished,
even though they do not appear to be so. Do not allow inflammable materials to come into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down first.
7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
Do not store flammable materials in the oven Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers. If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off so that the temperature can equalize. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. Take care when handling the container after heating. You may burn yourself if thecontainer is too hot. A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.
8. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
t~XYZozhTWZXWXhniUGGwGZGGmSGhGYYSGYWW\GGYa\[Gwt
To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you should put a plastic spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating. Reason: During the heating of liquids the boiling point can be delayed; this means that eruptive boiling can start after the container is removed from the oven. You may scald yourself. In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions: Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at least 10 minutes. Cover with a clean, dry dressing. Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions. NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the top than at the bottom to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with narrow necks may also explode if overheated. ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to the baby. NEVER heat a babys bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated.

WARNING:

It is hazardous for anyone other than a comperent person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use. Please recycle or dispose of the packaging material for this product in an environmentally responsible manner. Please contact your local authorities in regard to the enviromentally safe disposal of this product.

9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.
Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and keep the power cable away from heated surfaces. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug. 10. Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the door. Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
11. Keep the inside of the oven clean. Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause
paint damage and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12. You may notice a Clicking sound during operation(especially when the oven is in
defrosting). Reason: This sound is normal when the electrical power output is changing.
13. When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut off
automatically for safety. You can operate the oven normally after letting it stand for over 30 minutes.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSRTUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is being heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.

IMPORTANT

Young children or infirm persons should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.
If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a competent person.

Cooking Instructions

Cooking Utensils

Recommended Use

Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes Use for heating or cooking. Microwavable browning dish Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish. Microwavable plastic wrap Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food. Wax paper Use as a cover to prevent spattering. Paper towels and napkins Use for short-term heating and covering; they absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and can catch fire. Paper plates and cups Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and can catch fire. Thermometers Use only those labeled Microwave Safe and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used once the food has been removed from the oven. Aluminum foil Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful. Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware Use these if they are labeled Microwave Safe. If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely. Never use dishes with metallic trim. Plastic Use only if labeled Microwave Safe. Other plastics can melt. Straw, wicker, and wood Use only for short-term heating, as they can be flammable. Glass jars and bottles Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave, and can shatter. Paper bags These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use. Styrofoam plates and cups These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food. Plastic storage and food containers Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave. Metal utensils These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before

Cooking Techniques

Stirring
Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.

Arrangement

Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place thin or delicate parts toward the center of the turntable.

Shielding

Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.

Limited Use

Turning
Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large items such as roasts.

Standing

Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after the oven stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as roasts and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well and test the temperature before serving.

Not Recommended

Adding Moisture
Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.

General Tips

Dense foods, such as potatoes, take longer to heat than lighter foods. Foods with a delicate texture should be heated at a low power level to avoid becoming tough. Altitude and the type of cookware you are using can affect cooking time. When using a new recipe, use the minimum cooking time and check the food occasionally to prevent overcooking. Foods with a non-porous skin such as potatoes or hot dogs, should be pierced to prevent bursting. Frying with heating oil or fat is not recommended. Fat and oil can suddenly boil over and cause severe burns. Some ingredients heat faster than others. For example, the jelly inside a jelly doughnut will be hotter than the dough. Keep this in mind to avoid burns. Home canning in the microwave oven is not recommended because all harmful bacteria may not be destroyed by the microwave heating process. Although microwaves do not heat the cookware, the heat from the food is often transferred to the cookware. Always use pot holders when removing food from the microwave and instruct children to do the same. Making candy in the microwave is not recommended as candy can heat to very high temperatures. Keep this in mind to avoid injury.

Cooking Eggs in Your Microwave
Never cook eggs in the shell, and never warm hard-cooked eggs in the shell; they can explode. Always pierce whole eggs to keep them from bursting. Cook eggs just until set; they become tough if overcooked. Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Often, no extra water is needed. If dense vegetables such as potatoes, carrots and green beans are being cooked, add about cup water. Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster than larger ones. Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more evenly if turned over after half the cooking time. Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center. When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented microwavable plastic wrap. Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, squash, eggplant, etc., should have their skin pricked in several spots before cooking to prevent them from bursting. For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the cooking time. Generally, the denser the food, the longer the standing time. (Standing time refers to the time necessary for dense, large foods and vegetables to finish cooking after they come out of the oven.) A baked potato can stand on the counter for five minutes before cooking is completed, while a dish of peas can be served immediately.

Troubleshooting Guide
Before you call a repair person for your oven, check this list of possible problems and solutions. glass at High power for five minutes or until boiling. Let stand in the oven for one or two minutes. Remove the glass tray from the oven when cleaning the oven or tray. To prevent the tray from breaking, handle it carefully and do not put it in water immediately after cooking. Wash the tray carefully in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Clean the outside surface of the oven with soap and a damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts of the oven, dont let water seep into the openings. Wash the door window with very mild soap and water. Be sure to use a soft cloth to avoid scratching. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. Never operate the oven without food in it; this can damage the magnetron tube or glass tray. You may wish to leave a cup of water in the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the oven is accidentally turned on.

Neither the ovens display nor the oven operate.
Properly insert the plug into a grounded outlet. If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch, make sure the wall switch is turned on. Remove the plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds, then plug it in again. Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse. Plug another appliance into the outlet; if the other appliance doesnt work, have a qualified electrician repair the outlet. Plug the oven into a different outlet. Make sure the door is closed securely. Check to see if packing material or other material is stuck to the door seal. Check for door damage. Press Cancel twice and re-enter all cooking instructions. If there has not been a power outage, remove the plug from the outlet, wait ten seconds, then plug it in again. If there was a power outage, the time indicator will display Reset the clock and any cooking instructions. Reset the circuit breaker or replace any blown fuse. Make sure the oven is on its own 10A amp circuit line. Operating another appliance on the same circuit can cause a voltage drop. If necessary, move the oven to its own circuit. Remove any metallic utensils, cookware, or metal ties. If using foil, use only narrow strips and allow at least one inch between the foil and interior oven walls. Clean the turntable, roller ring and oven floor. Make sure the turntable and roller ring are positioned correctly. This is similar to the interference caused by other small appliances, such as hair dryers. Move your microwave further away from other appliances, like your TV or radio. Follow these instructions to clean and care for your oven. Keep the inside of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently. Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives. To help loosen baked on food particles or liquids, heat two cups of water (add the juice of one lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh) in a four-cup measuring
