Safety
If smoke is emitted or a re occurs in
the oven, press Stop/Cancel and leave
the door closed in order to stie any
ames. 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 rst
checking the food.
Cooking times given in the cookbook
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 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.
Important
If the recommended cooking
times are exceeded the food
will be spoiled and in extreme
circumstances could catch
re and possibly damage the
interior of the oven.
Never operate the oven
without food inside.
Small Quantities of Food
Take care when heating small
quantities of food as these can easily
burn, dry out or catch re if cooked too
long. Always set short cooking times
and check the food frequently.
Foods Low in Moisture
Take care when heating foods low in
moisture, e.g. bread items, chocolate,
popcorn, biscuits and pastries. These
can easily burn, dry out or catch on re
if cooked too long.
We do not recommend heating foods
low in moisture such as popcorn or
poppadoms. The oven has been
developed for food use. 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 re.
Christmas Pudding
Christmas puddings and other foods
high in fats or sugar, eg. jam, mince
pies, must not be over heated. These
foods must never be left unattended
as with over cooking these foods can
ignite.
Boiled Eggs
Eggs in their shell and whole hard
boiled eggs should not be heated
in microwave ovens since they may
explode even after microwave heating
has ended.
Foods with Skins
Potatoes, apples, egg yolk, whole
vegetables and sausages are
examples of food with non porous
skins. These must be pierced using a
fork before cooking to prevent bursting.
