remove it before use. Check carefully for damage. If any is found,
immediately notify the dealer or send the appliance to the
manufacturer’s service center.
• Microwave ovens must be placed in a dry and non-corrosive
environment, and kept away from heat and humidity, such gas
burners or water tanks.

• To ensure suicient ventilation, the distance of the back of the
microwave from the wall should be at least 10 cm. The distance from
the side to the wall should be at least 5 cm. The clearance above the
top surface should be at least 20 cm. The distance of the microwave
from the oor should be at least 85 cm.
• The position of the oven must be such that it is far from TVs, radios
or antennas as it may cause interference. The distance should be
more than 5 m.
• The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible. It
must be correctly grounded in the event of leakage. A ground loop
can be formed to avoid electric shock.
• The microwave oven must be operated with the door closed.
• The microwave oven must not be placed in a cabinet. The
microwave oven is intended to be used freestanding.
• The back of the oven must be placed against a wall.
• As there may be manufacturing residue or oil still inside the oven
or on the heating element at rst, there will be an odor or even a
little smoke. This is normal and will stop after several uses. Keep
a door or window open to provide good ventilation. It is strongly
recommended to place a cup of water on the turntable, set to high
power and operate for several times.

Cooking tips
The following factors may aect the cooking results.
Food layout
Place thicker areas towards the outside of the dish, thinner parts
towards the center and spread evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
Cooking time
Start cooking with a short time setting, assess the cooking when it
times out and extend it until the food is cooked. Overcooking may
result in smoke and burns.
Cooking food evenly
Foods such as chicken, hamburgers or steaks should be turned once
during cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir from outside to the
center of the dish once or twice during cooking.
Standing time
After cooking completes, leave the food in the oven for a suitable
length of time, this allows it to complete its cooking cycle and cool
down gradually.
Checking if the food is cooked
The color and hardness of the food help to determine if it is cooked,
these include:
• Steam coming out from all parts of the food, not just the edges;
• Poultry joints can be moved easily;
• Pork or poultry shows no signs of blood;
• Fish is opaque and can be sliced easily with a fork.

EN
Microwave Oven | Horno Microondas | Micro-ondas
Browning dish
When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place a
heat-resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent
damage to the turntable and rotating ring.
When cooking food with high fat content, do not allow the plastic wrap
to come into contact with the food as it may melt.
Some microwave-safe plastic cookware might not be suitable
for cooking foods with high fat and sugar content. Therefore the
preheating time indicated on the dish packaging must not be
exceeded.
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
• Remove the power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not
immerse the appliance in water or other uids when cleaning.
• Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to
deterioration of the surface that could adversely aect the appliance
service life and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
• Never use hard detergents, gasoline, abrasive powders or a metal
brush to clean any part of the appliance.
• Do not remove the waveguide cover.
• When the microwave oven has been used for a long time, there may
be some odors in the oven, The following 3 methods can get rid of
them:
- Place several lemon slices in a cup, then heat at high Micro Power
for 2-3 min.
18
- Place a cup of red tea in the oven, and then heat at high micro
power.
- Put some orange peel into the oven, and then heat at high Micro
Power for 1 minute.
• Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when
adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use
the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
