General recommendation:
Like other electrical appliances close supervision is necessary when the microwave oven is used by
children.
USE OF THE MICROWAVE
Use the microwave oven only for its intended use as described in this user guide. It must not be
used for industrial or laboratory purposes, as it was designed to heat or cook food.
* Do not use the microwave oven to dry textiles, paper,
spices, herbs, wood, flowers or other combustible
materials.Fire could result.
* Remove wire twist-ties from plastic or paper bags
before placing bags in the oven.
* Do not leave the oven unattended, especially when using paper, plastic or other combustible
materials in the cooking process. Paper can bum and some plastics can melt when heated.
Remember that melted plastic can contaminate food.
* If food or material inside the oven should ignite:
1. Keep the door closed.
2. Turn the oven off.
3. Unplug or disconnect the general house electrical supply.
WHEN COOKING FOOD
Consult the recipe book for more details or specifications about cooking food, especially that
containing alcohol.
Turning the food half way through cooking ensures even and uniform cooking, as in traditional
cooking. Foods like roasts should be lifted up so that they do not absorb too much cooking liquid.
* Use oven gloves. Microwave energy does not heat containers
- if they are special microwave ones - but it heats food,
which transmits heat by contact to the containers, increasing
their temperature.
* Do not use the microwave to cook or heat whole
eggs with or without shell.
* Do not heat foods or liquids in airtight sealed containers. The
pressure increases and may cause damage when opening, or the
container may explode.
* Do not over-cook food such as potatoes and sweet potatoes which could catch fire.
Some foods which have a low water content, e.g. oil, chocolate and some pastries with filling,
must be heated carefully. Do not use oil for deep frying, because you cannot control the
temperature.
