WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

The oven cannot be operated with the door open due to the safety interlocks built in the door mechanism which switch off cooking functions when the door is opened. Operating the oven with the door open could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to tamper with the door mechanism. Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces. The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except qualified service personnel. PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY WARNING When heating liquids, e.g. soups, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, delayed eruptive boiling can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken: 1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks. 2. Do not overheat. 3. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the heating time. 4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short time. Stir or shake the contents (especially feeding bottles and baby foods) and carefully check the temperature before use. 1. Remove all packing materials and accessories. 2. Place the oven on a level surface a minimum of 85cm above the floor with at least 30cm above and 10cm rear space to allow adequate ventilation. The side of the oven should be kept clear so there is air flow for ventilation. The front of the oven should be at least 8cm from the edge of the surface to prevent tipping. An exhaust outlet is located on top or side of the oven. Blocking the outlet can damage the oven. 3. Plug your oven into a standard voltage household outlet. Ensure that the electrical circuit is at least 10 amps (13 amps for models MB-4334B/MB-4334BS) The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue - Neutral Brown - Live Green and Yellow - Earth If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazard. and that the oven is the only appliance on the circuit. NOTE: • This appliance should not be used for commercial catering purposes. 8

Read carefully and keep for future reference

WARNING: Please ensure cooking times are correctly set as over cooking may result in FIRE and subsequent DAMAGE to the OVEN. 1 Do not attempt to tamper with, or make any adju- stments or repairs to the door, control panel, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven.It is hazardous for anyone to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. Repairs should only be undert- aken by a qualified service technician. 2 Do not operate the oven when empty. It is best to leave a glass of water in the oven when not in use. The water will safely absorb all microwave energy, if the oven is accidentally started. 3 Do not use the oven for the purpose of dehumidifi- cation. It can be the cause of serious damage of safety. (ex. Operating the microwave oven with the wet newspapers, clothes, toys, pet or portable electric devices, etc.) 4 Do not cook food wrapped in paper towels, unless your cook book contains instructions, for the food you are cooking. 5 Do not use newspaper in place of paper towels for cooking. 6 Do not use wooden containers. They may heat-up and char. Do not use ceramic containers which have metallic (e.g. gold or silver) inlays. Always remove metal twist ties. Metal objects in the oven may arc, which can cause serious damage. 7 Do not operate the oven with a kitchen towel, a napkin or any other obstruction between the door and the front edges of the oven, which may cause microwave energy leakage. 8 Do not use recycled paper products since they may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires when used in cooking. 9 Do not rinse the turntable by placing it in water just after cooking. This may cause breakage or damage. 10 Small amounts of food require shorter cooking or heating time. If normal times are allowed they may overheat and burn. 11 Be certain to place the oven so the front of the door is 8 cm or more behind the edge of the surface on which it is placed, to avoid accidental tipping of the appliance. 12 Before cooking, pierce the skin of potatoes, apples or any such fruit or vegetable. 13 Do not cook eggs in their shell. Pressure will build up inside the egg which will burst. 14 Do not attempt deep fat frying in your oven. 15 Remove the plastic wrapping from food before cooking or defrosting. Note though that in some cases food should be covered with plastic film, for heating or cooking. 16 If the oven door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been rep- aired by a qualified service technician. 17 If smoke is observed, switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply and keep the oven door closed in order to stifle any flames. 18 When food is heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials, check the oven frequently due to the possibility of the food container is deteriorating. 19 Only allow children to use the oven without super- vision 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. 20 Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode. 21 Do not operate the oven, if the door seals and adjacent parts of the microwave oven are faulty, until the oven has been repaired by a qualified service technician. 22 Check the utensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens before use. 23 Do not touch the oven door, outer cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity,accessories and dishes during grill mode, convection mode and auto cook operations, unless wearing thick oven gloves, as they will become hot.Before clearing make sure they are not hot.

Other Helpful Instructions

Cleaning and Care For best results and more enjoyable cooking, please read these comments thoroughly. For Best Results: 1. When determining the time for a particular food, begin by using minimum time and checking con- dition occasionally. It is easy to overcook food because microwaves cook very quickly. 2. Small quantities of food, or foods with low water content may dry out and become hard if cooked too long. Defrosting Frozen Foods: 1. Foods that have been frozen can be placed directly in the oven for thawing. (Be certain to remove any metallic ties or wraps.) 2. Defrost according to the Defrosting Tips found in this Manual. 3. For areas of the food thawing faster than others, cover with small pieces of aluminium foil. This helps slow down or stop the defrosting process. 4. Some foods should not be completely thawed before cooking. For example, fish cooks so quickly that it is sometimes better to begin cooking while still slightly frozen. 5. It may be necessary to increase or decrease the cooking time in some recipes, depending on the starting temperature of the foods. NOTE: Air from the vent may become warm during cooking. Browning: There are a few foods which are not cooked long enough in the microwave oven to brown and may need additional colour. Coatings such as paprika, and browning agents such as Worcestershire sauce may be used on chops, meat patties or chicken pieces. Roasts, poultry or ham, cooked for 10-15 minutes or longer, will brown without extra additives. BE SURE THE OVEN IS TURNED OFF BEFORE CLEANING. Keep the oven interior surfaces clean and dry. As a general rule clean after each use. INTERIOR WALLS Remove any crumbs and food remains between the door and oven using a damp cloth. This area has to be particularly well cleaned to ensure the door will close properly. Remove any grease splashes with a soapy cloth then rinse and dry. Do not use abrasives which may scratch and damage the painted surface of the oven. NEVER POUR WATER INTO THE OVEN ROLLER REST The roller rest should be removed and cleaned in hot soapy water at least once a week to prevent grease restricting the rotation of the wheels. DOOR The door and door seals should be kept clean at all times. Use only warm, soapy water to rinse then dry thoroughly. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE MATERIALS, SUCH AS CLEANING POWDERS OR STEEL AND PLASTIC PADS. Metal parts will be easier to maintain if wiped frequently with a damp cloth. EXTERIOR Clean with mild soap and warm water, rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive materials. Do not spill water in the vents. If the power lead becomes soiled wipe it with a damp cloth. Do not use any steam cleaner. 12

Defrosting meats tips & techniques

• You can defrost meats in their original wrapping as long as no metal is present. If necessary, shield small areas of meat or poultry with flat pieces of aluminium foil. This will prevent thin areas becoming warm dur- ing defrosting. Ensure the foil does not touch the oven walls. • Food to be defrosted should be in a suitable microwave safe container and placed uncovered on the glass turntable. • Defrost meats only as long as necessary. Separate items like minced meat, chops, sausages and bacon as soon as possible. Remove defrosted portions and continue to defrost remaining pieces. It is essential that food is checked during DEFROSTING as different foods vary in their defrosting speed. • Whole pieces of meat are ready for standing time as soon as a fork can be pushed into the center of the meat using moderate pressure. The center will still be icy. Allow to stand until completely thawed. • Defrost meat on defrost mode.

Questions and Answers

Q. What’s wrong when the oven light will not glow? A. I Light bulb has blown. I Door is not closed. Q. Why is steam coming out of the air exhaust vent and/or why is water dripping from the bottom of the door? A. Steam is normally produced during cooking operations. The microwave has been made to vent this steam out of the side vent, occasionally this steam condenses on the door and water then drips out at the bottom of the door. This is quite normal and safe. Q. Does microwave energy pass through the viewing screen in the door? A. No. The metal screen reflects the energy to the oven cavity. The holes, or ports are made to allow light to pass; they do not let microwave energy through. Q. Will the microwave oven be damaged if it operates while empty? A. Yes. Never run it empty. Q. Why do eggs sometimes pop? A. When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs witthout piercing their shells. Q. Why is standing time recommended after the cooking operation has been completed? A. Standing time is very important. With microwave cooking, the heat is in the food, not in the oven. Many foods build up enough internal heat to allow the cooking process to continue, even after the food is removed from the oven. Standing time for joints of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow the inside to cook completely, without overcooking the outside. Q. Why does my oven not always cook as fast as the microwave cooking guide says? A. Check your cooking guide again, to make sure you’ve followed directions exactly; and to see what might cause variations in cooking time. Cooking guide times and heat settings are suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking . . . the most common problem in getting used to a microwave oven. Variations in the size, shape and weights and dimensions could require longer cooking time. Use your own judgement along with the cooking guide suggestions to check whether the food has been properly cooked just as you would do with a conventional cooker. Q. Why do sparks and crackling (arcing) occur in the oven? A. There may be several reasons why sparks and crackling (arcing) within cavity happens. I You are using dishes with metal parts or trim (silver or gold). I You have left a fork or other metal utensil in the oven. I You are using a large amount of metal foil. I You are using a metal twist-tie. 20
