User manual PANASONIC NN-K36HW

[. . . ] Before operating this oven, please read these instructions and precautions carefully and keep for future reference. The appliance should be inspected for damage to the door seals and door seal areas and if these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a service technician trained by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to tamper with or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, control panel housing, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Do not remove the outer panel from the oven which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. [. . . ] Use oven gloves when removing accessories. Never touch the outside window or inside metal parts of the door or oven when taking food in or out due to the high temperatures involved. When cooking by COMBINATION, the MICROWAVE power cooks food quickly whilst the GRILL gives traditional browning and crisping. Press once twice 3 times While cooking, the glass tray may vibrate. This will not affect cooking performance. The wire rack is designed to be used for COMBINATION and GRILLING. Never use any other metal accessory except the one provided with the oven. DO NOT use if operating the oven with less than 200 g of food on a manual programme. For small quantities, do not cook by COMBINATION, but cook by GRILL or MICROWAVE ONLY for best results. Never cover foods when cooking on COMBINATION. Arcing may occur accidentally if the incorrect weight of food is used, the wire rack has been damaged , or a metal container has been used. Arcing is flashes of blue light seen in the microwave oven. If this occurs, stop the oven immediately. Some foods should be cooked on COMBINATION without using the wire rack i. The food should be placed in a heatproof non-metallic dish and placed directly onto the glass tray. DO NOT use plastic MICROWAVE containers on COMBINATION programmes (unless suitable for COMBINATION cooking). Dishes must be able to withstand the heat of the top grill - heatproof glass or ceramic is ideal. DONOTuse your own metal dishes or tins, as the microwaves will not penetrate the food evenly. The wire rack must always be used with the glass tray in position. Remove wire rack from oven by holding the rack and heatproof dish firmly. Use oven gloves when removing accessories. Never touch the outside window or inside metal parts of the door or oven when taking food in or out due to the high temperatures involved. [. . . ] When using the GRILL or COMBINATION mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally, it may start to "smoke" during use. A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning. This oven should only be serviced by qualified personnel. [. . . ]
