HOW TO USE YOUR OVEN SAFELY
1. When boiling water or other liquids, be
sure to use a wide mouthed container,
this will allow air bubbles to escape freely
extremely short: for example mince pies
or similar.
and prevent boiling over. Overheating the
liquid beyond boiling point can occur
without evidence of bubbling. This could
result in a sudden boil over of the hot
liquid.
6. Always pierce food, which has a skin or
membrane, for example, eggs, potatoes,
tomatoes, apples, sausages etc. If you
don’t pierce them steam will build up
inside and they may explode.
7. When disposable containers of plastic,
paper or other combustible materials are
used to reheat food, it is advisable to
check from time to time during the cooking
cycle.
2. Do not attempt to operate the oven while
empty, as this will cause damage.
3. Do not deep fry in the microwave oven as
the temperature of the oil cannot be
controlled and it may overheat.
NOTE
It is quite normal for steam to be emitted
around the door, for misting to occur on the
door, or even for water droplets to appear
below the door during the cooking cycle.
This is merely condensation from the heat
of the food and does not affect the safety of
your oven. The door is not intended to seal
the oven cavity completely but its special
SANYO design contributes to the safety of
the appliance.
4. Never completely seal containers in the
microwave
oven.
Coverings
are
necessary but containers must not be
airtight.
5. Small quantities of food with low moisture
content or high fat or sugar content can
burn, dry out or catch fire if cooked or
re-heated too long. Please note that the
heating / cooking period required is
ALTHOUGH YOUR OVEN IS PROVIDED WITH SAFETY FEATURES, IT IS
IMPORTANT TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a. Do not tamper with safety interlocks.
b. Do not place any object between the oven and the door or allow any food residue to
accumulate on sealing surfaces. Wipe the door sealing area frequently with a mild detergent,
rinse and wipe dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.
c. When opened, the door must not be subjected to strain, for example, a child hanging on an
opened door may cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury.
d. If any damage is apparent, do not operate the oven. Contact your nearest SANYO SERVICE
CENTRE.
e. Children may use the appliance only without supervision as long as instructions have been
given, which enable the child to operate the oven safely and make the child aware of the
dangers of false operation

OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The following safety precautions should
be followed when using these
appliances.
7. Never microwave eggs in the shell since
they may explode. The egg yolk may pop
because of a build-up of steam inside the
membrane. To prevent this, pierce the
membrane before cooking it.
1. Read all instructions before first use.
2. When using the grill and / or convection
function for the first time, smoke and
odour may be given off for a few minutes.
This is normal during first operation, and
is no cause for alarm.
3. As with most cooking appliances close
supervision is necessary to reduce the
risk of a fire in the oven cavity.
WHEN COOKING BY GRILL:
1. Take care not to spill water on the
glass-viewing
window
during
or
immediately after cooking as it may crack.
2. Be sure to use an oven glove when
loading and unloading the ovens. Care
should be taken to avoid pressing cavity
walls inside oven.
3. Be careful not to press the viewing
window when loading or unloading the
oven.
If a fire should start;
•
•
•
Keep the door closed.
Turn the oven off
Disconnect the power cord or shut
off the power at the mains.
Other important safety points to remember
are:
4. The top of the cabinet gets very hot,
therefore do not place items on the
oven. Do not place the oven near
combustible materials e.g. curtains,
kitchen paper.
1. Do not use wire ties in the oven. Be sure
to inspect purchased items for wire ties
and remove before placing food in the
oven.
2. It is important to keep the oven interior
clean. Food particles left on the oven
walls reduce the efficiency of the
microwaves.
3. Do not heat foods or liquids in bottle or
jars with lids on. Air must be allowed to
escape from the container.
4. Milk or food for babies should be heated
on “MEDIUM”. It should then be stirred
thoroughly and tested to ensure that it is
at the correct temperature before giving it
to the baby.
5. The grill may cycle on/off during
operation.
6. IMPORTANT GRILLING MEAT
CHICKEN PIECES
/
Roasting joints / whole Chicken
pieces
Place on an upturned saucer in a flat
dish. Turn over and remove any juices
halfway through cooking.
Smaller Cuts:
Place on the grill rack, place a dish on
the turntable beneath the rack to catch
any liquid. Turn meat over and remove
any juices halfway through cooking.
5. Care must be taken when removing cups
of hot liquid from the turntable.
6. Cups should be lifted not slid to the edge
of the turntable to prevent tipping.
WARNING
a) Do not adjust or repair the microwave oven yourself. Do not operate the oven if it is
damaged, until it has been repaired by a service engineer trained by the manufacturer.
b) It is dangerous for anyone other than a properly qualified engineer trained by the
manufacturer to carry out adjustments or repairs.
c) If the power supply cord/cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
its service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
d) On no account remove or interfere with any parts or screws.
THIS COULD PROVE VERY DANGEROUS.
PLEASE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS
coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green-and-yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Before you use your oven, check that the
voltage shown on the face of the oven
conforms with your mains supply. The mains
lead has a 13 amp plug containing a 13 amp
fuse. If the fuse requires replacing at any time,
the fuse cover should be removed using a
small screwdriver to lever it out. The old fuse
should be replaced by a 13 amp fuse and the
fuse cover must be refitted before the plug is
used again.
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead
of this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire, which is coloured green-and-yellow,
must be connected to the terminal in the plug,
which is marked with the letter E or by the
earth symbol or coloured green or
green-and-yellow. The wire, which is coloured
blue, must be connected to the terminal,
which is marked with the letter N or coloured
black. The wire, which is coloured brown,
must be connected to the terminal, which is
marked with the letter L or colour red.
It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only the oven be provided. Using a
high voltage is dangerous and may result in a
fire or other accident causing oven damage.
If the plug supplied on the mains lead is not
suitable for the socket in your home, it should
be cut off and disposed of safely, or
destroyed, to avoid possible shock hazard
resulting from the plug being inserted into a
13 amp socket).
If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug
must not be used until a replacement is
obtained. Replacement fuse covers are
available from SANYO SERVICE CENTRES.
It is important that the colour of the
replacement fuse cover corresponds with the
coloured insert or as embossed in words on
the base of the plug.
Note:
1. If you have any questions about grounding
or electrical instructions, please consult a
qualified electrician or service person.
2. Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can
accept any liability for damage to the oven or
personal injury resulting from a failure to
observe the electrical connection procedure.
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED
IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are
6
level.
OVEN POSITIONING
1. Make sure that all packing materials are
removed from inside of the door.
2. Check the oven for any damage, such as
a misaligned or bent door, damaged door
seals and sealing surface, broken or
loose door hinges and latches and dents
inside the cavity or on the door. If there is
any damage, do not operate the oven
and contact qualified service personnel.
3. Install the oven on a flat, level surface
strong enough to safely bear the weight
of the oven.
4. Do not locate the oven near areas where
heat and moisture are generated as this
may lower oven efficiency.
5. Covering the air vents may lead to
malfunctioning; therefore
a
minimum
clearance of 20cm is required above the
oven, 10cm at the back and 5cm to each
side of the oven.
6. Some interference may occur if it is
placed too close to a radio or TV, so keep
them as far apart as possible.
7. The microwave oven must be installed at
a minimum height of 85cms above floor

OVEN UTENSILS
1. The ideal material for a microwave utensil is transparent to microwave, it allows energy to
pass through the container and heat the food.
2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be
used.
3. Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking, as they may contain small
metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
4. Round /oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends
to overcook.
5. Narrow strips of aluminium foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But be
careful not to use too much and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.
The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.
