Melissa 253-002 Microwave Oven User Manual


 
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:
- Do not operate the oven empty in the
microwave mode. Either food or water should
always be in the oven during operation to
absorb microwave energy.
- Limit use of metal to the specific examples
given in the utensil section of your cookbook.
Generally, metal should not be used during
operation of microwave mode alone.
- Do not cook eggs in the shell. Pressure will
build up inside the shell and it will explode. Do
not reheat cooked eggs unless they are
scrambled or chopped. Puncture the egg yolk
before cooking eggs.
- Avoid canning in the microwave oven; harmful
bacteria may not be destroyed.
- Do not heat oil or fat for deep-frying.
- Pierce the "skin" of potatoes, whole squash,
apples or any fruit with a skin covering before
cooking.
- Do not use paper towers, plates or other
utensils made from recycled paper for
microwave cooking. Recycled paper products
may contain impurities that could cause the
paper to ignite during microwave cooking.
Precautions to avoid possible exposure to
microwave energy.
- Do not attempt to operate this oven by
circumventing the safety devices or tampering
with the interlocks in an attempt to use the
oven with the door open. Open door operation
can result in exposure to microwave energy. It
is important not to defeat or tamper in any way
with the safety interlocks of the door
mechanism. Your unit will not work with the
door open. Were the safety features to be over
ridden, this could result in harmful exposure to
microwave energy.
- Do not place any object between the oven
front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner
residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
- Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is
particularly important that the oven door closes
properly and that there is no damage to the
door (if it has been bent), hinges and latches
(broken or loosened), door seals and sealing
surface.
- The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by
anyone except properly qualified service
personnel.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
- Connect the oven to a proper power source
and switch on.
- Open the door and place the glass tray on the
bottom of the oven.
- Place container of food on the turntable for
cooking.
- Do not cook directly on the turntable. When
cooking more than one item, arrange food in
such a way that the items are evenly spaced
and do not touch one another. An item placed
in the centre of the turntable has a tendency to
cook slower than one placed on the outer
section.
- Close the door securely.
- Choose the cooking power level by turning the
power selection control to the desired position.
- Set the timer to the required cooking time by
turning the knob.
- NOTE: When the timer is to be set for less than
5 minutes, turn the knob past the 5 minutes
setting, and then turn back to the required
time.
- When the cooking time has expired, the bell
will ring, the oven will automatically switch off,
and the timer will return to the zero setting.
To stop the cooking process before the bell rings,
