COOKING UTENSILS
Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
Microwave energy is produced by high frequency radio waves. They are reflected from
metal, but will pass through most cooking utensils without heating them.
As the waves come into contact with the food, they are converted into heat energy. Listed
below are the suggested cooking utensils for this microwave oven and when to use them.
CARE AND CLEANING
Although your oven is provided with safety features, it is important to observe the following:
1. It is important not to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.
2. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently with a mild detergent,
rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.
3. When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on
an opened door or any load could cause the oven to fall forward to cause injury and also
damage to the door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged, until it has been repaired
by a trained service technician.
It is particularly important that the oven closes properly 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 by anyone except a properly trained service
technician.
Material Grill cooking Microwave cooking Combined cooking
1. Without metal parts or metal trims.
2. Some plastics are heat-proof only to certain temperature. Check carefully!
3. It is possible to use aluminum foil to shield delicate areas of food.(This prevents over-cooking.)
4. Metal tins can be used in the combination methods, however if these are very deep, they will greatly
reduce the efficiency, as metal shields the microwave energy from the food.
