safety information

cooking use

As the power of different microwave ovens can vary consider-

ably, care must be taken when first using this appliance as it may

cook faster than expected.

● Do not leave the appliance unattended during use.

WARNING : 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 haz-

ards of improper use; DO NOT assume that

because a child has mastered one cooking

skill he/she can cook everything without close

supervision. The microwave MUST NOT be

treated nor used like a toy.

● Take care when cooking food with a high sugar or fat content,

such as Christmas pudding or fruitcake. The sugar or fat can

overheat and in some cases catch fire.

affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous

situation. (See cleaning your microwave)

before use

GB-7

safety information

do not use these in your microwave

● Never use equipment made of metal, except foil in your

microwave oven. The microwave energy cannot pass through

the metal so it bounces off and sparks against the inside of the

oven.

● Stop the microwave straight away if any equipment does cause

sparks.

● Remember that some crockery has a metal trim around the

edge. Even this trim can cause sparks.

Containers / Certain Foods

WARNING : Pressure will build up in sealed containers and

cause them to explode. Therefore, do not use

the following in your microwave:

¨ Sealed containers

¨ Capped bottles

¨ Vacuum containers

¨ Sealed jars

¨ Hard-boiled egg

¨ Eggs in their shells

¨ Nuts

● Always pierce the skin of fruit and vegetables, such as

potatoes.

● Never use scratched, cracked or damaged glass in a micro

wave. Damaged glass can explode.

delayed boiling

Liquids heated in a microwave can boil up when removing them

from the microwave.

Take the following precautions :

● Always stir liquids before and after cooking.

● Allow them to stand.

● Use containers that are wider at the top than the bottom.

preparing food for babies

Extra care must be taken when preparing food or drink for babies

and small children.

● Always test the food or liquid temperature before giving it to a

baby.

● When using a baby bottle, ensure the teat is removed before

heating.

● When warming milk, ensure the bottle is shaken.

caution!

During cooking, the outer surface will become hot, do not touch

outer casing of appliance. Care should be taken not to store any

items on top of your microwave oven.

safety information

before use

GB-9

using aluminium foil in your microwave

It is safe to use aluminium foil in your microwave oven as long as

you follow these safety guidelines.

As with all metal, microwave energy cannot pass through foil, but

provided that you keep the foil away from the side of the oven it

will not cause sparks and there will not be any damage to

your oven.

Using foil is a good way of shielding parts of food that you do not

want to cook as quickly as others – perhaps where the food is

narrower and would otherwise overcook.

Place the foil over the area you want to shield, taking care that

the foil will not touch the sides of the oven when the turntable ro-

tates. Only use one piece of foil at a time so that you do not get

sparks between the separate pieces.

Follow these guidelines when using foil in your microwave:

● Remove foil lids from containers before using in the micro

wave. Some lids are made of card with a foil covering – these

should be removed too. Use a microwave-safe transparent lid if

possible.

● Stir food during cooking if the container has a lid or film cover.

● Always use the glass turntable.

● Use shallow containers with a large surface area. Do not use

containers that are more than 1.25in (3.5cm) deep.

● Use oven gloves when handling hot foil containers.

● Do not completely cover food with foil. The microwave energy

cannot pass through the foil so the food will not cook.

● Do not let aluminium foil touch the inside of the oven.

● Do not use more than one piece of foil in the oven at the same

time.

GB-10

unpacking and getting ready

This microwave oven is designed for home use. It

should not be used for commercial catering.

1. After unpacking your oven, check that it has

not been damaged whilst in the box. Make

sure there are no dents on the oven, and the

door closes properly. A dented or damaged

oven could allow microwave energy to escape.

Make sure that you have taken all the packag-

ing from inside the oven. Please dispose of

the plastic wrappings or bags safely and keep

out of the reach of babies and young children.

2. Choose a flat work surface for your microwave

away from heat sources such as radiators or

fires and away from cold areas.

You should allow a 10cm space all around the

oven and 30cm above so that warm air can

escape from the vents during cooking – This

microwave is not designed to be built in.

3. Plug your oven into a standard household

electrical socket (230-240 volt, 13 amp rated).

Avoid using a socket that also has an adaptor

and other equipment plugged in. Do not use a

multi adaptor.

4. Put the turntable ring inside the oven and

place the glass turntable on top of the ring.

The turntable is shaped to sit securely on the

spindle. You must always use the turntable

and ring whenever you use the microwave.
