Do notoperate the oven if it is damaged, until it has beenrepaired by a trained service technician. It is particularly important that the oven closesproperly and that there is no damage to the:i) Door(bent)ii) Hinges and Hookes(broken or loosened)iii) Door seals and sealing surfaces.4. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired byanyone except a properly trained service technician.CARE AND CLEANING
15QUESTIONS AND ANSWERSQ: Why do eggs sometimes pop?A: When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may popdue to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane.To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with atoothpick before cooking. Never cook eggswithout piercing their shells.Q: Why this standing time recommended after thecooking operation has been completed?A: Standing time is very important.With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food,not in the oven. Many foods build up enoughinternal heat to allow the cooking process tocontinue, even after the food is removed from theoven. Standing time for joints of meat, largevegetables and cakes is to allow the inside tocook completely, without overcooking the outside.Q: Will the microwave oven be damaged if itoperates while empty?A: Yes. Never run it empty.Q: Why does my oven not always cook as fast as themicrowave cooking guide says?A: Check your cooking guide again, to make sureyou’ve followed directions exactly ; and to seewhat might cause variations in cooking time.Cooking guide times and heat settings aresuggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... themost common problem in getting used to amicrowave oven.Variations in the size, shape and weights anddimensions could require longer cooking time.Use your own judgement along with the cookingguide suggestions to check whether the food hasbeen properly cooked just as you would do with aconventional cooker.Q: Can I operate my microwave oven without theturntable or turn the turntable over to hold a largedish?A: No. If you remove or turn over the turntable, youwill get poor cooking results. Dishes used in youroven must fit  on the turntable.Q: Is it normal for the turntable to turn in eitherdirection?A: Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise orcounterclockwise, depending on the rotation of themotor when the cooking cycle begins.Q: Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven? Howdo I get the best results?A: Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn followingmanufacture’s guidelines. Do not use regularpaper bags. Use the “listening test” by stoppingthe oven as soon as the popping slows to a “pop”every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not repop unpoppedkernels. Do not pop popcorn in glass cookware.Q: I accidentally ran my microwave oven without anyfood in it. Is it damaged?A: Running the oven empty for a short time will notdamage the oven. However, it is notrecommended.Q: Can the oven be used with the glass tray or rollerguide removed?A: No. Both the glass tray and roller guide mustalways be used in the oven before cooking.Q: Can I open the door when the oven is operating?A: The door can be opened anytime during thecooking operation. Then microwave energy will be instantly switched off and the time settingwill maintain until the door is closed.Q: Why do I have moisture in my microwave ovenafter cooking?A: The moisture on the side of your microwave ovenis normal. It is caused by steam from cooking foodhitting the cool oven surface.Q: Dose microwave energy pass through the viewingscreen in the door?A: No. The metal screen bounces back the energy tothe oven cavity. The holes are made to allow lightto pass through. They do not let microwaveenergy pass through.
16COOKING INSTRUCTIONSUtensil GuideOnly use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food, without being reflectedor absorbed by the dish used. Care must therefore be taken choosing the utensil. If the utensil is markedmicrowave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various of utensil and indicates whether andhow they should be used in a microwave oven.●: Recommended use▲ : Limited Use✕: Not Recommended Utensil Safe CommentsAluminium foilCrust plateChina and earthenwareDisposable polyester cardboard dishesFast-food packaging• Polystyrene cups containers• Paper bags or newspaper• Recycled paper or metal trimsGlassware• Oven-to-table ware• Fine glassware• Glass jarsMetal• Dishes• Freezer bag twist tiesPaper• Plates, cups, napkins and Kitchen paper• Recycled paperPlastic• Containers• Cling film• Freezer bagsWax or grease-proof paperCan be used in small quantities to protect areas againstovercooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close tothe oven wall or if too much foil is used.Do not preheat for more than 8minutes.Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone chinaare usually suitable, unless deco-rated with a metal trim.Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes.Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause thepolystyrene to melt.May catch fire.May cause arcing.Can be used, unless decorated with a metal trim.Can be used to warm foods or liquids.

17USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELYGeneral UseFoodARCINGIf you see arcing, press STOP/CLEAR button and correct the problem.Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.Arcing is caused by:• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act likeantennas).• Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold rimmeddishes, in the microwave.• Recycled paper towels containing small metal piecesbeing used in the microwave.Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safetyinterlocks.Do not place any object between the oven front frameand the door or allow residue to build up on sealingsurfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.Never use abrasive powders or pads.Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight suchas a child hanging on an open door.This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting ininjury to you and damage to the oven.Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealingsurfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hingesare loose or broken.Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage theoven.Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or othermaterials in the oven. They may catch on fire.Do not use recycled paper products as they maycontain impurities which may cause sparks or fires.Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects.This can damage the oven.Never use your microwave oven for home canning.The oven is not designed for proper home canning.Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerousto consume.Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It isbetter to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven formore cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can bedone.Heat small quantities of food or foods with lowmoisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn orcatch on fire.Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build upand eggs can explode.Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages areexamples of food with non-porous skins.These must be pierced before cooking to preventbursting.Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.Always allow a starding time of at least 20 secondsafter the oven has been switched off to allao thetemperature to even out, stir during heating, ifnecessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To preventeruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should puta spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stirbefore, during and after heating.Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn.Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is thecommercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product.The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paperbag.Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directlyon the oven tray. Place the package on a microwavesafe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating andcracking the oven tray.Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturerssuggested popping time. Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it canresult in scorch, burn of fire. Remember, the Popcornbag and tray can be too hot to handle. Remove withcaution and use pot holders.
18MICROWAVING PRINCIPLESMicrowave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR inWorld War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources. Manmadesources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.CONVERSION CHARTSIn a microwave oven,electricity is convertedinto microwave by theMAGNETRON.REFLECTIONTRANSMISSION Then they pass through thecooking containers to beabsorbed by the watermolecules in the food, allfoods contain water to amore or lesser extent.ABSORPTIONThe microwaves cause the water molecules to vibratewhich causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat thencooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat andsugar particles, and foods high in these will cook morequickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of 11/2- 2 inches(4-5cm) and as heat spreads through the foodby conduction, just as in a traditional oven, the foodcooks from the outside inwards.WEIGHT MEASURES15 g 1/2oz.25 g 1 oz.50 g 2 oz.100 g 4 oz.175 g 6 oz.225 g 8 oz.450 g 1 lb.HOW MICROWAVES COOK FOOD▲▲▲VOLUME MEASURES30 ml 1 fl.oz.100 ml 3 fl.oz.150 ml 5 fl.oz.

19STANDING TIMEDense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes and cakes,require standing time(inside or outside of the oven) aftercooking, to allow heat to finish conducting to cook thecenter completely. Wrap meat joints and jacket potatoesin aluminium foil while standing. Meat joints need approx.10-15 minutes, jacket potatoes 5 minutes. Other foodssuch as  plated meal, vegetables, fish etc require 2-5minutes standing. After defrosting food, standing timeshould also be allowed. If food is not cooked afterstanding time, return to the oven and cook for additionaltime.MOISTURE CONTENTMany fresh foods e.g. vegetables and fruit, vary in theirmoisture content throughout the season, particularlyjacket potatoes. For this reason cooking times may haveto be adjusted. Dry ingredients e.g. rice, pasta, can dryout during storage so cooking times may differ.DENSITYPorous airy foods heat more quickly than dense heavyfoods.CLING FILMCling film helps keep the food moist and the trappedsteam assists in speeding up cooking times. Piercebefore cooking to allow excess steam to escape. Alwaystake care when removing cling film from a dish as thebuild-up of steam will be very hot.SHAPEEven shapes cook evenly. Food cooks better bymicrowave when in a round container rather than square.SPACINGFoods cook more quickly and evenly if spaced apart.NEVER pile foods on top of each other.STARTING TEMPERATUREThe colder the food, the longer it takes to heat up. Foodfrom a fridge takes longer to reheat than food at roomtemperature.LIQUIDSAll liquids must be stirred before and during heating.Water especially must be stirred before and duringheating, to avoid eruption. Do not heat liquids that havepreviously been boiled. DO NOT OVERHEAT.TURNING & STIRRINGSome foods require stirring during cooking. Meat andpoultry should be turned after half the cooking time.ARRANGINGIndividual foods e.g. chicken portions or chops, shouldbe placed on a dish so that the thicker parts are towardsthe outside.QUANTITYSmall quantities cook faster than large quantities, alsosmall meals will reheat more quickly than large portions.PIERCINGThe skin or membrane on some foods will cause steamto build up during cooking. These foods must be piercedor a strip of skin should be peeled off before cooking toallow the steam to escape. Eggs, potatoes, apples,sausages etc, will all need to be pierced before cooking.DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL EGGS IN THEIRSHELLS.COVERINGCover foods with microwave cling film or a lid. Cover fish,vegetables, casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes,sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry items.COOKING TECHNIQUES
20DEFROSTING GUIDE▶Do not defrost covered meat. Covering might allowcooking to take place. Always remove outer wrapand tray. Use only containers that are microwave-safe.▶Begin defrosting whole poultry breast-side-down.Begin defrosting roasts fat-side-down.▶The shape of the package alters the defrosting time.Shallow rectangular shapes defrost more quicklythan a deep block.▶After 1/3of the defrost time has elapsed, check thefood. Toy may wish to turn over, break apart,rearrange or remove thawed portions of the food.▶During defrost, the oven will prompt you to turn theover. At this point, open oven door and check thefood. Follow the techniques listed below for optimumdefrost results.Then, close oven door, touch the START pad tocomplete defrosting.▶When defrosted, food should be cool, but softened inall areas. If still slightly icy, return to microwave ovenvery briefly, or let stand a few minutes. Afterdefrosting, allow food to stand 5-60 minutes if thereare any icy areas.Poultry and fish may be placed under running coolwater until defrosted➪Turn over : Roast, ribs, whole poultry, turkeybreasts, hot dogs, sausages, steaks, or chops.➪Rearrange : Break apart or separate steaks, chops,hamburger patties, ground meat, chicken or seafoodpieces, chunks of meat such as stew beef.➪Shield : Use small strips of aluminum foil to protectthin areas or edges of unevenly shaped foods suchas chicken wings. To prevent arching, do not allowfoil to come within 1-inch of oven walls or door.➪Remove : To prevent cooking, thawed portionsshould be removed from the oven at this point. Thismay shorten defrost time for food weighing less than3 lbs.(1350g).DEFROSTING CHARTItem & Weight Defrosting Time Standing Time Special TechniquesBEEF Minced beef1 lb./450gStew Meat1 1/2lbs./675gPatties4(4oz./110g)PORK Spareribs1 lb./450gChops4(5oz./125g)Minced pork1 lb./450gPOULTRYWhole Chicken2 1/2lbs./1125gChicken Breasts1 lbs./450gFryer Chicken(cut up)2 lbs./900gChicken Thights1 1/2lbs./675gFISH & SEAFOODWhole Fish1 lb./450gFish Fillets1 1/2lb./675gShrimp1/2lb./225g13-15 min.15-18 min.12-14 min.12-14 min.13-15 min.13-15 min.26-30 min.13-15 min.23-25 min.18-22 min.12-14 min.14-16 min.5-6 min.15-20 min.25-30 min.15-20 min.25-30 min.25-30 min.15-20 min.45-90 min.15-30 min.25-30 min.15-30 min.15-20 min.15-20 min.15-20 min.Break apart and remove thawed portionswith fork.Separate and rearrange once.Turn over after half the time.Separate and rearrange once.Separate and turn over once.Break apart and remove thawed portionswith fork.Break side down.
