Troubleshooting

Microwave does not turn on or operate

Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet itself has power by testing it with another appliance. Check if any circuit breaker has tripped.

Food is not heating or cooking unevenly

Verify that the power level is set correctly for the food item. Ensure the door is fully closed and latched. Check if the food is in microwave-safe cookware and that the turntable is rotating freely without obstruction. Adjust cooking time as needed for 700W power.

Turntable is not rotating

Make sure the turntable plate is correctly seated on the roller ring and the central spindle. Clean any food debris from beneath the turntable and the roller ring that might be impeding its movement. Ensure the roller ring itself is properly positioned.

Unusual noises during operation

This could be due to the turntable being misaligned or rubbing against the cavity wall. Reposition the turntable and roller ring. Also, ensure no metal objects are inside the microwave, which can cause arcing and unusual sounds.

Door does not close properly

Check for any food debris or obstructions around the door seal or latch mechanism. Gently clean the area. If the door appears physically damaged, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the microwave from its packaging, ensuring all packing materials and accessories are accounted for.
  2. Placement: Position the microwave on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure there's adequate ventilation around the unit (e.g., 10cm clearance on sides, 20cm above). Do not place near heat sources or over a sink.
  3. Turntable Assembly: Place the turntable ring inside the microwave cavity, then position the glass turntable plate securely on top of the spindle.
  4. Power Connection: Plug the microwave into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches your household supply.
  5. First Use: Before initial use, wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. It's recommended to heat a cup of water for a few minutes on high power to remove any manufacturing odors.

Compatibility

  • Cookware: Only use microwave-safe dishes and containers. The microwave can accommodate a 10.5-inch round plate, which is suitable for most standard dinner plates. Avoid metal cookware or foil, as these can cause arcing.
  • Food Items: Ideal for heating, reheating, and defrosting various food items. Its 17-litre capacity is best suited for individual meals or smaller portions.

Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning the Interior: After each use, wipe down the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent to prevent food splatters from drying and becoming difficult to remove. For stubborn stains, use a microwave-safe cleaner.
  • Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
  • Turntable Care: The glass turntable and roller ring can be removed and washed in warm, soapy water or in a dishwasher. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the microwave.
  • Odor Removal: If unpleasant odors persist, place a bowl of water with a few lemon slices inside and microwave on high for 5 minutes.
  • General: Always unplug the microwave before cleaning. Do not immerse the appliance in water.
