MICROWAVE OVEN

Please acquaint yourself with these instructions before using your microwave oven.

If these instructions are strictly adhered to, your microwave oven will serve you trouble-free for many years.

Store these instructions in an easily accessible location

PRECAUTIONS, WHICH MUST BE FOLLOWED IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF MICROWAVE ENERGY

EXPOSURE

1. Do not attempt to use the microwave oven with the door open as you will risk exposure to harmful microwave

energy. It is very important that you do not damage the internal latches and door blocking mechanism.

2. Do not place foreign objects between the door and the front of the microwave oven and do not allow food or

cleaning liquid remnants to build up on the screening grill or on the inside of the door.

3. Do not use the microwave oven if it is damaged or malfunctioning. It is especially important that the door always

be closed and that the following parts are not damaged:

• door (bent)

• hinges and latches (broken or weakened)

• screening grill on the inside of the door

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: While the microwave oven is operating in combination mode (MICROWAVE + GRILL) or being operated by

children, an adult should always be present to supervise in order to prevent the children from burning themselves.

WARNING: Do not use the microwave oven if the screening grill on the door is damaged.

WARNING: Repairing a microwave oven always presents danger to any person conducting the repairs if it is neces-

sary to remove the metal housing that provides protections from microwave radiation. Do not repair the microwave

oven yourself.

WARNING: Do not forget to open products packaged in hermetic or vacuum packaging before heating or cooking.

Otherwise, pressure could grow within the package and cause it to explode, regardless of whether or not the food

was prepared earlier.

WARNING: Children may only use the microwave oven by themselves after they have been acquainted with these

instructions and understand the dangers associated with operating a microwave oven.

• Use only microwave-safe dishes. Do not use metallic dishes in the microwave oven as microwaves reflected off

the dish may cause sparks and fire.

• In order to avoid overheating and burning food, constantly supervise the microwave's operation if you are heat-

ing food in disposable plastic, paper or other similar containers or if the oven is heating only a small amount of

food.

• When heating any kind of liquid (water, coffee, milk, etc.), keep in mind that it can suddenly start to boil and

splash on your hands while you are removing it from the oven. To avoid this, place a heat resistant plastic spoon

or glass mixer in the container and stir the liquid before removing it from the oven.

• Infant feeding bottles and jars of baby food should be heating without lids or nipples. Their contents should be

mixed or periodically shaken. Test the temperature of the food before feeding in order to prevent burns.

Important information

• ALWAYS check to make sure the food is not too hot before giving it to a child. We recommend shaking the bottle

or jar to make sure the heat is distributed evenly throughout the volume of the container.

• Do not cook an egg in its shell or reheat an egg in its shell in MICROWAVE mode as they can break from the

internal pressure.

SAFETY MEASURES

1. Install the oven on a flat, stable surface. Choose a place that will not be accessible to small children.

2. Install the oven so that the distance between the wall and the back of the oven is no less than 7-8 cm and the free

space above the microwave is no less than 30 cm.

3. The microwave door is equipped with a blocking system that turns off the power when it is open. Do not make

changes to the operation of the door blocking mechanism.

4. Do not turn on the microwave while empty; operating the oven with no food inside can lead to malfunction.

5. Preparing foods with extremely small moisture contents can lead to burning and fire.

If a fire occurs:

• Do not open the door.

• Turn off the microwave oven and disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet.

6. When preparing bacon, do not place it directly on the glass tray; localized overheating of the glass tray can cause

it to crack.

7. Do not heat liquids in containers with narrow openings.

8. Do not attempt to heat products to a well-done state.

9. Do not use the microwave for canning and preserving food because there is no way of knowing if the contents of

the jar reached boiling temperature.

10. In order to avoid prolonged rapid boiling of liquid foods and drinks, and also to prevent burns, we recommend

stirring the product before and in the middle of the cooking process. To do this, start cooking, wait a while,

remove the dish from the oven and stir, then place it back in the oven to continue the cooking process.

11. Clean the microwave oven regularly. Irregular care for your oven can lead to poor outward appearance, nega-

tively affects its operating ability, and also can lead to danger during further exploitation.

Rules that should always be remembered:

1. Do not exceed product cooking times in the microwave oven. Always monitor the cooking process when using

dishes made from paper, plastic and other flammable materials.

2. Never use the microwave oven to store things. Never store flammable materials and food in the microwave like

bread, cookies, paper packaging, etc., because during lightning storms, the microwave oven can turn on by

itself.

3. Metal ties and wire handles must be removed from paper and plastic bags and containers before placing them

into the microwave oven.

4. The microwave oven should be properly grounded. Only connect the microwave oven to an electrical outlet that

is properly grounded.

5. Some food items, like eggs in their shells, liquid or hard fats, and also hermetically sealed jars and sealed glass

containers can be explosive and should not be placed in your microwave oven.

7. Use your microwave oven exclusively for the purposes for which it was designed and in strict adherence to the

instructions explained herein.

8. The microwave oven in designed exclusively for heating and preparing food and is not designed for laboratory or

industrial use.

8. Pay special attention when children are using the microwave oven.

9. Do not use the microwave oven if the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the oven has been damaged or

dropped.

10. Repair of the microwave oven should only be conducted by qualified specialists at an authorized service center.

11. Do not block the ventilation openings on the microwave oven's housing.

12. Do not store or use the microwave oven outdoors.

13. Do not use the microwave oven near water, immediately near kitchen sinks, in damp basements or directly near

swimming pools.

14. Do not submerse the power cord and plug in water.

15. Avoid allowing the power cord and plug to come into contact with hot surfaces.

16. Do not allow the power cord to hang off the edge of the table or counter.

17. When cleaning the door and internal surfaces of the microwave oven, always use a soft, non-abrasive cleanser

on a sponge or soft cloth.

CAUTION

Injury due to electric shock.

Touching the elements of the electrical circuits inside the microwave oven can lead to serious trauma and injury from

electric shock. Do not take apart the microwave oven yourself.

Grounding the Microwave Oven

The microwave oven should be properly grounded. In case of any kind of short-circuit, grounding reduces the risk of

electric shock, as the current will flow through the ground wire.

The microwave oven uses a power cord with ground wire and a grounded plug. The plug should be connected to an

electrical outlet that also has a ground contact.

WARNING: Connecting a grounded plug to an un-grounded outlet can lead to electric shock.

Consult with a qualified electrician if you do not understand these grounding instructions or if you are not sure that

the microwave oven is properly grounded.

• In order to avoid confusion, the microwave oven is equipped with a short power cord.

• If an extension cord is necessary, only use a 3-wire extensions cord with ground contacts on the power plug and

outlet(s).

• The sectional markings on the microwave oven's power cord should match those on the extension cord.

• The extension cord should not hang off the edge of the table where children can pull on it; it should be placed

where it will not be walked on.
