How do I use the defrost setting?
To defrost, place your frozen food in the microwave, turn the power level dial to the 'Defrost' setting, and then set the desired time using the timer dial. For best results, check food periodically and separate pieces if possible to ensure even thawing.
Does this microwave have a digital timer or pre-set buttons?

What does 700W mean for cooking performance?

How do I clean the mirror door and black gold finish?
Wipe the mirror door and black gold finish with a soft, damp cloth. For smudges, a small amount of mild, non-abrasive cleaner designed for kitchen surfaces can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, dry cloth to avoid streaks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing pads.

Troubleshooting
Microwave does not turn on or heat food.
Ensure the microwave is correctly plugged into a functional wall outlet. Check your household's circuit breaker or fuse box. Make sure the door is closed securely; the microwave will not operate if the door is ajar.
Food is not heating evenly.
Ensure you are using microwave-safe dishes and that food is distributed evenly on the turntable. Stir or rotate food halfway through the cooking cycle. Check that the turntable is properly seated and rotating freely. For larger portions, consider extending cooking time or using a higher power level if appropriate.
Unusual noises during operation.
Check if the turntable is correctly positioned on its support and the drive spindle. Ensure there are no foreign objects inside the microwave. If the noise persists and seems abnormal, discontinue use and contact customer support.
