For Your Safety This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 13 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 13 amps and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. Check for the ASTA mark ASA or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse. If the fuse cover is detachable, never use the plug with the cover omitted.
Placement of Your Oven 1. Oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow, i.e. 5 cm/2" at the side; 15 cm/6" clear over the top; 10 cm/4" at the rear. 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. 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.
Important Information –– Read Carefully 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. 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.
Important Information –– Read Carefully 11. Reheating It is essential that reheated food is served “piping hot”. Remove the food from the oven and check that it is “piping hot”, i.e. steam is being emitted from all parts and any sauce is bubbling. If you wish you may choose to check the food has reached 72˚C with a food thermometer - (but remember do not use this thermometer inside the microwave.) or to a temperature recommended by Government Food Hygiene Regulations. For foods that cannot be stirred, e.g.
How Does the Microwave Work? Microwaves are a form of high frequency radio waves similar to those used by a radio including AM, FM and CB. They are, however, much shorter than radio waves; approximately 12 cm long. Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the magnetron tube. From the magnetron tube, microwave energy is transmitted and absorbed. Absorption During heating, microwaves will be absorbed by food.
