Setup and Installation

Unpacking

Carefully remove the microwave oven and all packaging materials from the carton. Check the oven for any damage, such as dents or a misaligned door. Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. Contact customer service for assistance.

Placement

Place the microwave oven on a flat, stable surface that can support its weight and the heaviest food item likely to be cooked in it. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the oven. Maintain a minimum clearance of 20 cm (8 inches) above the oven, 10 cm (4 inches) at the rear, and 5 cm (2 inches) on each side for proper airflow.

Electrical Connection

Plug the power cord into a standard grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the rating label on the back of the oven. Do not use extension cords or adapters.

Initial Cleaning

Before first use, wipe the interior and exterior of the oven with a damp cloth. Wash the glass turntable and the grill rack with warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the Oven Exterior

Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish.

Cleaning the Turntable and Grill Rack

The glass turntable and metal grill rack can be washed in warm, soapy water or in a dishwasher. Ensure they are completely dry before placing them back in the oven.

Storage

If storing the oven for an extended period, ensure it is clean and dry. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
