1. Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For
proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air
flow to the air vent i.e. 5 cm (2 inches) at the side
and rear; 20 cm (8 inches) at the top.
2. Do not place the microwave oven on a shelf
directly above a gas or electric hob. This may be a
safety hazard and the oven may be damaged.
It is dangerous to position the oven on a shelf
which is so high that food cannot be safely
removed by the user. If a shelf is used in a suitable
position, ensure that it is capable of supporting the
weight of the oven.
3. Do not block air vents on the rear and bottom of
the cabinet. If air vents are blocked during
operation, the oven may overheat. If the oven
overheats, a thermal safety device will turn the
oven off. The oven will remain inoperable with
blank display until it has cooled.
4. Do not use the oven outdoors.
1. This oven must not be operated without food in the
oven. Operation when empty will damage the
appliance.
2. Children should be kept
away from the oven at all
times and should only be
allowed to operate the oven
under supervision. Ensure
that children do not touch
the hot outer casing.
3. Storage of accessories. Do not store any objects
other than oven accessories inside the oven in
case it is accidentally turned on. In case of
electronic failure, the oven can be turned off at
wall socket.
4. Do not dry fabrics in the oven since there is a
possibility of the clothes burning if left in the oven
for too long.
5. If smoke is observed, press the Stop/Reset Pad
or turn the Timer Dial back to zero “0” position
and leave the door closed. Disconnect the power
cord, or shut off the power at the fuse or circuit
breaker panel.
6. Removable shelf
Do not slide the removable shelf in or out when
placing or removing food. This action could cause
damage to the shelf or cause hot food to tip
towards the operator.
1. WHEN YOUR OVEN REQUIRES A SERVICE call
your local Panasonic engineer (08701-591590) for
service. It is dangerous for anyone other than a
service technician trained by the manufacturer to
perform repair service. Do not attempt to remove
the outer casing of the oven.
2. Do not attempt to tamper with or make any
adjustments or repairs to the door, control panel
housing, safety interlock switches or any other part
of the oven. Do not remove outer panel from the
oven. The door seals and door seal areas should
always be kept clean –– use a damp cloth.
3. The oven lamp must be replaced by a service
technician trained by the manufacturer. DO NOT
attempt to remove the outer casing from the oven.
