Features of the Product  
Safe to use  
The door adopts unique anti-choke structure and integrated punch forming,  
and thus effectively prevents the microwave from leaking.  
It is controlled by two-step interlock switch. The power will be switched off  
automatically when the door is open, therefore it is much safer to use.  
Shining appearance  
The door shell and operation panel frame shell adopt imported high-quality  
stainless steel materials, and will never get rust and change color. It has  
modern appearance and superior quality, and thus becomes the best  
choice for the household microwave oven.  
Healthy and germicidal  
It is produced with antiseptic materials, and can suppress the reproduction  
of the bacteria effectively.  
The special function of the microwave oven can eliminate the germ in the  
food quickly and completely.  
High-temperature roast  
It has two-step roast function, and can roast food quickly and high-efficiently.  
It has two-step “microwave + roast” combined roast function, and can  
produce perfect roast food.

Cooking Tips  
Cooking tips for microwave oven  
Lower temperature requires longer cooking time. Frozen  
food needs longer heating time than common food.  
Food temperature  
Food moisture  
As the microwave cavity is smaller it will retain a higher level of  
humidity, larger humidity levels result in shorter cooking time.  
As the microwave can only penetrate 2-4cm into the food,  
the thickness of the food will influence the cooking time.  
Food shape  
Heating times are different between dense food  
(meats) and loose(peas) food. The former requires  
longer time.  
Food density  
Food quantity  
The selected power level of the microwave is a certain value, and  
will not change along with the quantity of the food. Therefore larger  
quantity of food requires longer cooking time.  
Bones have quicker heat transmission, and fats absorb more  
energy. Therefore please pay attention to the overheat  
possibility in cooking the meat with bones and fats.  
Bone and fat  
Add cover  
Settle  
The production of heat and vapour can be reduced by  
placing the food into a container with a cover, this will  
shorten the cooking time.  
Please form the food in circular shape during cooking,  
and avoid piling up as far as possible. It can improve  
the evenness.  
When cooking liquid food like the soap, juice or  
beverage etc., stir it slightly before and during cooking.  
Stir  
Seal the food with freshness-preserve film to avoid  
splashing and contaminating the cavity. It can also  
preserve the moisture and nutrition.  
Seal  
When the food is removed from the microwave oven, the  
inside of the food is still heating. Place it aside for some time.  
Take the factor of duration into consideration.  
Lay aside

Use wet cloth to clean food scraps on the door,  
door seal and inside the cavity. Use wet cloth  
soaked with soapy water to clean the other  
deposits  
Keep the inner side of the door clean.Keep  
it free from food scraps.  
Take it out at least once per week, put into  
water to clean, to prevent deposits from  
corroding the rotary wheel.  
Note that the power supply cable shall not  
be damaged or broken. If the power supply  
cable is damaged, be sure to replace it with  
special cable.  
Remarks: If the microwave oven is to be idle for a long time, please clean  
thoroughly each part of the oven to avoid rusting.  
If the microwave oven appears abnormal or is  
damaged, do not use it any more before it is  
repaired by professional technicians.

Answers to Questions  
Answers to questions  
1. The lamp has failed.  
2. The timer is not set.  
Why is the lamp not on?  
Why is the vapor emitted from  
the air discharge outlet?  
Why is there water overflowing  
below the door?  
It is normal that the vapor may emit during cooking.  
Sometimes the vapor will condensed into water and flow  
out. It is normal phenomenon.  
No. The metal shelter can reflect the energy back into the  
oven. The view window only allows harmless light to pass  
through. The microwave energy can not pass through.  
Can the microwave leak from  
the view window of the door?  
If start the microwave oven  
without load of food, will it  
damage the oven?  
Yes. NEVER do that.  
Why does the food need to be  
laid aside after cooking?  
It is important to lay the food aside for several minutes.  
Cooking by microwave oven makes the food retrain heat  
inside. After you take out the food from the oven, the inside  
of the food will continue heating for 2-3 minutes. It can  
assist the cooking the joint of the food, vegetables or  
cookies completely outside the oven by laying aside.  
Why is it not so quick as stated  
in the manual to cook with my  
microwave oven?  
Check the user’s manual. Confirm that you follow the  
instruction completely. Find out the reason for setting  
different times. The setting of cooking time is only for  
reference. To avoid excess cooking, you shall learn the  
technology of cooking with microwave. The volume, weight  
and shape of the food can all influence the cooking. Take  
the instruction as reference, and learn it independently.  
Why is there sparking or  
cracking sound during cooking  
sometimes?  
It may be owing to following:1. Dishware with metal part is  
used (including gold and silver);  
2. Fork or other metal dishware are left in the oven;  
3. Too much metallic foil are used;  
4. Metallic thread is used to bind the food.  
In maintenance, the technicians shall pay attention that:  
Components that are easy to dismantled and cause excess microwave leakage:  
likely to touch voltage above 240V:  
1. Magnetron  
1. Improper installation of the magnetron on the  
wave guide  
2. High-voltage transformer  
3. High-voltage capacitor  
4. High-voltage diode  
5. AK rectifier  
2. Improper adjusting of the door hook, door body  
and up/down hinges  
3. Door body and shell are damaged  
The above problems can cause excess  
microwave leakage  
Components that may  
Microwave radiation  
Do not expose yourself to the radiation of the microwave generator or  
other components that transfer the microwave energy.
