No, metal dishes, aluminum foil, or any metallic objects should never be used inside the microwave. They can cause arcing, damage the appliance, and potentially create a fire hazard. Always use microwave-safe glass, ceramic, or plastic containers.

The 8 automatic programmes are pre-set cooking cycles for common foods like popcorn, potatoes, beverages, or certain frozen meals. You typically select the program and sometimes the weight or quantity, and the microwave automatically adjusts the power level and cooking time for optimal results without manual input.

While it's possible for a DIY enthusiast with proper tools and knowledge to install it, professional installation is often recommended for built-in appliances to ensure correct fit, secure mounting, and proper electrical connection, especially if cabinet modifications are needed.

This microwave typically requires a standard 120V, 15A (or 20A dedicated) grounded electrical outlet. Always refer to the installation section of your user manual for precise electrical requirements to ensure safe operation.

The clock setting procedure usually involves pressing a 'Clock' or 'Time' button, then using the number pad to enter the current time, and confirming with the 'Clock' or 'Start' button. Refer to your user manual for specific instructions for the HB20MOBX5UK model.

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check your household's circuit breaker to see if it has tripped. Make sure the microwave door is fully closed and latched, as a safety interlock prevents operation if open.

Verify that you are using microwave-safe cookware. Ensure the turntable is correctly seated and rotating freely; food should rotate for even heating. Make sure the power level and cooking time are appropriate for the food being heated. Stir or rotate food halfway through cooking for best results.

Check that the turntable plate is properly positioned on the roller ring and that the roller ring itself is correctly placed on the center drive. Clean any food debris or obstructions from under the turntable or roller ring that might be preventing rotation.

Some humming is normal during microwave operation. However, if noises are loud or unusual, ensure the turntable and roller ring are correctly placed and free of obstructions. If the noise persists and seems concerning, consult the user manual or contact customer support.

Refer to your product manual for a list of error codes and their corresponding solutions. Often, unplugging the microwave for a minute and plugging it back in (a 'soft reset') can resolve temporary errors. If the code persists, contact Hisense customer service.
