This product is classified as Group 2 Class B ISM. Defined as (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) equipment in which radio-frequency energy is intentionally generated and/or used in the form of electromagnetic radiation for the treatment of material, and spark erosion equipment. Class B equipment is suitable for use in domestic establishments and in establishments directly connected to a low voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic purpose. When using an electrical appliance basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Read all instructions before using the appliance. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook or defrost food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use. Do not use corrosive chemicals or aerosols to clean this appliance. Do not operate the oven when empty. Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly or if it has been damaged or dropped. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR BURNS.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Check the oven frequently when heating food in plastic or paper container. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing the bag in the oven. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when it is not in use. Liquid or other food must not be heated in sealed containers since these are liable to explode. Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container. Do not fry food in the oven. Hot oil can damage oven parts, utensils and can even result in skin burns. Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, tomatoes, whole squashes, apples and chestnuts before cooking. Unless this is done, they may burst or explode. Eggs in their shells and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.
10. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken and the temperature should be checked before serving in order to avoid burns. 11. Cooking utensils may become hot because heat is transferred from the heated food. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil. 12. Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in microwave oven. Please note: This appliance is not intended for use by persons, including children, with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Warning: It is hazardous for anyone other than a trained person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of any cover which protects against exposure to microwave energy.

PAGE 4 OF12
EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS.
This appliance must be earthed. This oven is equipped with a power chord and earthed plug. It must be plugged into a wall socket that is properly installed and earthed. In the event of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only the oven be provided. Using a high voltage power supply is dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing oven damage. WARNING Improper use of the earthed plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the oven or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures. If you have any doubts about the electrical installation please consult an electrician or qualified technician. The wires in the power chord are colored in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow = EARTH. Blue = NEUTRAL. Brown = LIVE.
MICROWAVE COOKING GUIDE.
1. Arrange the food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish. 2. Watch the cooking time. Cook for the minimum time indicated in the recipe and add more as needed. Food which is severely overcooked can smoke or ignite. 3. Cover foods while cooking to prevent spattering and to help the food cook evenly. 4. Turn foods over once during microwave cooking to speed up the cooking of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once. 5. 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 oven fails to operate: 1. Check to ensure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds, and plug it in again securely. 2. 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. 3. Check to ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set. 4. Check to ensure that the door is securely closed and that the door safety locks have engaged properly. 5. Check that the safety (child) lock has not been activated. See page 9.
IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT THE NEAREST DEFY SERVICE CENTRE . SEE DETAILS ON PAGE 11 DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE OVEN YOURSELF.

UTENSIL GUIDE
1. Glass or Pyrex dishes allow energy to pass through the utensil and heat the food. 2. Microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so don't use metal dishes or utensils. Neither use any dish which has metallic decorations or a gold-foiled pattern. 3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as these may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and or fires. 4. Use round or oval dishes rather than square or oblong ones, as food in corners tends to overcook. 5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas.( on drum stick ends and such ) But be keep a distance of at least 1 inch (2.54cm) between the foil and the cavity to prevent arching.
