Important Information
Safety
If smoke is emitted or a fire occurs
in the oven, tap Stop/Cancel pad
and leave the door closed in order
to stifle any flames. Disconnect the
power cord, or shut off power at the
fuse or the circuit breaker panel.
Short Cooking Times
As microwave cooking times are
much shorter than other cooking
methods it is essential that
recommended cooking times are
not exceeded without first checking
the food.
Cooking times given in the charts
are approximate. Factors that may
affect cooking times are: preferred
degree of cooking, starting
temperature, altitude, volume, size
and shape of foods and utensils
used. As you become familiar with
the oven, you will be able to adjust
these factors.
It is better to initially undercook
rather than overcook foods. If food
is undercooked, it can always be
returned to the oven for further
cooking. If food is overcooked,
nothing can be done. Always start
with minimum cooking times.
Small Quantities of Food
Take care when heating small
quantities of food as these can
easily burn, dry out or catch fire if
cooked too long. Always set short
cooking times and check the food
frequently.
If the recommended cooking
times are exceeded the food
will be spoiled and in extreme
circumstances could catch fire
and possibly damage the interior
of the oven.
Important
Never operate the oven without
food inside on Microwave or
Combination mode involving
microwave.
Note
Food Low in Moisture
Take care when heating foods
low in moisture, e.g. bread items,
chocolate, biscuits and pastries.
These can easily burn, dry out or
catch on fire if cooked too long. We
do not recommend heating foods
low in moisture such as popcorn or
poppadoms. The microwave oven
is intended for heating food and
beverages only. Drying of food,
newspapers or clothing and heating
of warming pads, slippers, sponges,
damp cloth, wheat bags, hot water
bottles and similar may lead to risk
of injury, ignition or fire.
Christmas Pudding
Christmas puddings and other foods
high in fats or sugar, e.g. jam, mince
pies, must not be overheated.
These foods must never be left
unattended as with over cooking
these foods can ignite.
