18. Arcing
Arcing may occur if a metal container has been used incorrectly, if the incorrect weight of
food is used, or if the accessories have been damaged. Arcing is when blue flashes of light
are seen in the microwave oven. If this occurs, stop the machine immediately. If the oven is
left unattended and this continues it can damage the machine.
You can continue to cook by GRILL OR CONVECTION ONLY.
19. Maximum weight on turntable/enamel shelf
The maximum weight that can be placed on the wire shelf or enamel shelf is 4 kg (8 lb 14
oz) (this includes total weight of food and dish).
12. Standing Time.
Standing time refers to the period at the end of cooking or
reheating when food is left before being eaten, i.e. it is a rest time
which allows the heat in the food to continue to conduct to the
centre, thus eliminating cold spots.
13. Keeping Your Oven Clean.
It is essential for the safe operation of the oven that it is wiped out
regularly. Use warm soapy water, squeeze the cloth out well and
use to remove any grease or food from the interior. Pay particular
attention to the door seal area. The oven should be unplugged
when cleaning. The catalytic lining at the back does not need to
be cleaned.
14. Grilling.
The oven will only operate on the GRILL function with the door
closed.
15. Fan Motor Operation.
After using the microwave oven, the fan motor may operate to cool the electric components.
This is normal and you can take out food even though the fan motor operates. You can
continue using the oven during this time.
16. Containers.
Before use, check that utensils/containers are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
17. Babies Bottles and Food Jars.
When reheating babies bottles always remove top and teat. Liquid
at the top of the bottle will be much hotter than that at the bottom
and must be shaken thoroughly before checking the temperature.
The lid must also be removed from babies food jars, the contents
must also be stirred or shaken before the temperature is checked.
This should be carried out before consumption in order to avoid
burns.
