MICROWAVE POWER LEVELS
The microwave power level is varied by the microwave energy switching on and o . When using power levels other
than HIGH (100 %) you will be able to hear the microwave energy pulsing on and o as the food cook or defrosts.
These levels are selected by rotating the Power control knob to the desired setting. The knob will click in place when
moved to the required power position.
Power Setting Recommend Cooking
For gentle defrosting, e.g. cream gateaux or pastry.
To defrost, select this power setting, to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is
also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg custard.
For dense foods which require a long cooking time when cooked conventionally, e.g. beef
casserole, it is advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.
Used for longer cooking of dense foods such as roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals,
also for sensitive dishes such as sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the food will cook
evenly without over cooking at the sides.
Used for fast cooking or reheating e.g. for casseroles, hot beverages, vegetables etc.
MICROWAVE COOKING
1. Prepare and place food in a suitable container (refer to “SUITABLE OVENWARE” ), position food/container directly
onto the middle of the turntable. Close the door.
2. Turn the MICROWAVE POWER CONTROL knob to the desired setting; any one of the 6 microwave power levels.
3. Turn the TIMER knob to the desired cooking/defrosting time and the oven will start automatically.
4. When cooking/defrosting is complete, the TIMER returns to “0” zero and the signal will sound. The oven lamp will
turn o automatically and the turntable stops rotating. Open the oven door, remove the food/container carefully.
Leave food to stand as required.
COOKING HINTS:
When the oven starts, the oven lamp will light and the turntable will rotate clockwise or anticlockwise.
If you wish to stop cooking before the cooking time has elapsed, turn the TIMER knob back to “0” (o ), or open the
oven door. The oven door may be opened at any time during cooking. To continue cooking, close the door. If you wish
to change the cooking time during cooking, simply turn the TIMER knob to the desired new setting.
When cooking/defrosting for less than 3 minutes, turn the TIMER knob past the 10 minute mark, and then back to the
desired setting. The timer will then run more accurately.

CLEANING AND CARE
1. Turn o the oven and unplug the power cord from the wall when cleaning.
2. Keep the inside of the oven clean. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls, wipe with a damp
cloth. Mild detergents may be used if the oven gets very dirty. Avoid using spray or other harsh cleaners. They may
stain, streak or dull the door surface.
3. The outside of the oven should be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside
the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.
4. Wipe the door and window on both sides, the door seals and adjacent parts frequently with a damp cloth to
remove any spills or spatters. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
5. Do not steam clean.
6. Do not allow the mechanical controls to become wet. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. When cleaning the
mechanical controls, leave oven door open to prevent oven from accidentally turning on.
7. If steam accumulates inside or around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when
the microwave oven is operated under high humidity condition. This is not a fault.
8. The oven oor should be cleaned regularly to avoid contamination and potential arcing/damage. Simply wipe the
bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent.
9. Remove odors from your oven by combining a cup of water with the juice and skin of one lemon in a

possibly result in a hazardous situation.
12. Please do not dispose of this appliance into the domestic rubbish bin; it should be disposed to the particular

SUITABLE OVENWARE
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to pass through the
container and heat the food.
2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small metal fragments which
may cause sparks and/or res.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be careful don’t use too
much and keep a distance of 2.54 cm between foil and cavity
