Using The Microwave Oven - Zanussi FMW 5613 Instructions For The Use And Care

Using the microwave oven
To ensure maximum satisfaction from
your microwave oven we would like to
advise you of some precautions to
Dbserve when using your new microwave
cooking appliance.
Before using for the first time be sure
that all packing materials are removed.
DO NOT use the oven for storage when
it is not in use.
DO NOT attempt to run the oven with
no food in it.
DO NOT let the timer continue to
Dperate after removing food, return the
timer to zero.
DO NOT attempt to cook or reheat eggs
in the shell in the microwave oven, they
may explode.
Above all this is a cooking appliance
designed to prepare food.
Whilst microwave ovens do not generate
head to cook food, the food item and
possibly the container may become hot.
This is particularly so when using a
browning dish.
Therefore, precautions that are taken
with conventional cooking should also be
observed when cooking with microwaves;
3are must be taken not to place a very
hot dish directly onto the inner lining of
the glass door.
[t is important to remember that it is
possible to burn all foods if they are
cooked for too long.
Safety precautions
DO NOT attempt to operate the oven
with the door open by tampering with
the safety-interlocks.
DO NOT place any object between the
oven front face and the door ar allow the
sealing surfaces to accumulate dirt.
DO NOT operate the oven if it is
damaged in any way.
DO NOT attempt to have the oven
adjusted or repaired by anyone other
than qualified personnel, trained by the
manufacturer.
DO NOT use metal cookware in the oven.
WARNING
DO NOT OVERCOOK FOODS
Overcooking foods can result in
dehydration and subsequent fire.
Jacket potatoes, and foods with a high
sugar content such as those containing
dried fruits, are particularly vulnerable.
In the case of fire unplug the oven and
DO NOT open the oven door.
Cookware
As microwaves heat only the food, it is
possible to serve in the same dish you used
for cooking. This dish is warmed only
slightly through the heat of food. You can
cook in almost any type of ceramics except
those with gold, silver or platinum decoration.
However, it is recommended to use
completely baked ceramic dishes. Any heat
resistant cookware can be used. However
care should be taken when using fragile
glassware since abrupt heating and cooling
may break them. Some plastics, such as
melamine or urethane, are not recommended
because microwaves may warp or crack
