Important safety instructions: Read carefully & keep
for future reference
To avoid the danger of fire
The microwave oven should not
be left unattended during operation.
Power levels that are too high or
cooking times that are too long may
overheat foods resulting in a fire.
The electrical outlet must be readily
accessible so that the unit can be
unplugged easily in an emergency.
The AC power supply must be
240 V, 50 Hz, with a minimum 15 A
distribution line fuse, or a minimum 15 A
distribution circuit breaker.
It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Do not store or use the oven outdoors.
If food being heated begins to
smoke, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR.
Turn off and unplug the oven and wait
until the food has stopped smoking.
Opening the door while food is
smoking may cause a fire.
Only use microwave-safe
containers and utensils.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when using disposable plastic, paper
or other combustible food containers.
Clean the waveguide cover, the
oven cavity, the turntable and
turntable support after use. These
must be dry and free from grease.
Built-up grease may overheat and
begin to smoke or catch fire.
Do not place flammable materials near
the oven or ventilation openings. Do not
block the ventilation openings.
Remove all metallic seals, wire twists,
etc., from food and food packages. Arcing
on metallic surfaces may cause a fire.
Do not use the microwave oven to heat
oil for deep frying. The temperature cannot
be controlled and the oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, only use special
microwave popcorn makers.
Do not store food or any other items
inside the oven.
Check the settings after you start the
oven to ensure the oven is operating as
desired.
See the corresponding hints in this
operation manual.
To avoid the possibility of injury
Warning: Do not operate the oven
if it is damaged or malfunctioning.
Check the following before use:
a) The door; make sure the door
closes properly and ensure it is not
misaligned or warped.
b) The hinges and door safety latches;
check to make sure they are not
broken or loose.
c) The door seals and sealing
surfaces; ensure that they have
not been damaged.
d) Inside the oven cavity or on the
door; make sure there are no dents.
e) The power supply cord and plug;
ensure that they are not damaged.
Never adjust, repair or modify the
oven yourself. It is hazardous for
anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves the
removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to
microwave energy.

To avoid the possibility of explosion
and sudden boiling
Warning: Liquids and other foods
must not be heated in sealed containers
since they are liable to explode.
Never use sealed containers. Remove
seals and lids before use. Sealed
containers can explode due to a build up
of pressure even after the oven has been
turned off.
Take care when microwaving liquids.
Use a wide-mouthed container to allow
bubbles to escape.
Microwave heating of beverages
can result in delayed eruptive boiling,
therefore care has to be taken when
handling the container.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling
liquid and possible scalding:
1. Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
2. It is advisable to insert a glass rod or
similar utensil into the liquid whilst
reheating.
3. Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds
in the oven at the end of cooking time to
prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Do not cook eggs in their shells
and whole hard boiled eggs should
not be heated in microwave ovens
since they may explode even after
microwave cooking has ended. To
cook or reheat eggs which have not
been scrambled or mixed, pierce the
yolks and the whites, or the eggs may
explode. Shell and slice hard boiled
eggs before reheating them in the
microwave oven.
Pierce the skin of such foods as
potatoes, sausages and fruit before
cooking, or they may explode.
To avoid the possibility of burns
Use pot holders or oven gloves when
removing food from the oven to prevent
burns.
Do not operate the oven with the door
open or alter the door safety latches in any
way.
Do not operate the oven if there is an
object between the door seals and sealing
surfaces.
Do not allow grease or dirt to build
up on the door seals and adjacent
parts. Follow instructions for “Care &
cleaning”. Failure to maintain the
oven in a clean condition could lead
to a deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the
appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should
check with their doctor or the manufacturer
of the pacemaker for precautions regarding
microwave ovens.
To avoid the possibility of electric
shock
Under no circumstances should you
remove the outer cabinet.
Never spill or insert any objects into the
door lock openings or ventilation openings.
In the event of a spill, turn off and unplug the
oven immediately and call an authorised
ELECTROLUX service agent.
Do not immerse the power supply cord
or plug in water or any other liquid. Do not
allow the power supply cord to run over any
hot or sharp surfaces, such as the hot air
vent area at the top rear of the oven.
Do not attempt to replace the oven
lamp yourself or allow anyone who is not
authorised by ELECTROLUX to do so. If the
oven lamp fails, please consult your dealer
or call an authorised ELECTROLUX service
agent.
If the power supply cord of this
appliance is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special cord. The exchange must be
made by an authorised ELECTROLUX
service agent.

Always open containers, popcorn
makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from
the face and hands to avoid steam burns.
To avoid burns, always test food
temperature and stir before serving
and pay special attention to the
temperature of food and drink given
to babies, children or the elderly.
Temperature of the container is not a
true indication of the temperature of the food
or drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door
when opening to avoid burns from escaping
steam and heat.
Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to
release steam and avoid burns.
Keep children away from the door and
accessible parts that may become hot when
the grill is in use. Children should be kept
away to prevent them burning themselves.
Do not touch the oven door, outer
cabinet, rear cabinet, oven cavity, ventilation
openings, accessories and dishes during
GRILL mode, DUAL GRILL mode and
AUTO COOK operation as they will become
hot. Before cleaning make sure they are not
hot.
To avoid misuse by children
Warning: Only allow children to use
the oven without supervision when
adequate instructions have been given
so that the child is able to use the oven
in a safe way and understands the
hazards of improper use.
This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsibile
for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
Do not lean or swing on the oven door.
Do not play with the oven or use it as a toy.
Children should be taught all important
safety instructions: use of pot holders,
careful removal of food coverings; paying
special attention to packaging (e.g. self-
heating materials) designed to make food
crisp, as they may be extra hot.
Other warnings
Never modify the oven in any way.
This oven is for home food preparation
only and may only be used for cooking
food. It is not suitable for commercial or
laboratory use.
To promote trouble-free use of
your oven and avoid damage
Never operate the oven when it is
empty except where recommended in the
operation manual, see page 16 note 2.
Doing so may damage the oven.
When using a browning dish or self-
heating material, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate
under it to prevent damage to the turntable
and turntable support due to heat stress.
The preheating time specified in the dish’s
instructions must not be exceeded.
Do not use metal utensils, which reflect
microwaves and may cause electrical
arcing. Do not put cans in the oven.
Only use the turntable and the turntable
support designed for this oven. Do not
operate the oven without the turntable.
To prevent the turntable from breaking:
a) Before cleaning the turntable with water,
leave the turntable to cool.
b) Do not put hot foods or hot utensils on
a cold turntable.

c) Do not put cold foods or cold
utensils on a hot turntable.
Do not place anything on the outer cabinet
during operation.
Do not use plastic containers for
microwaving if the oven is still hot from
using the GRILL mode, DUAL GRILL mode
and AUTO COOK operation because they
may melt. Plastic containers must not be
used during above modes unless the
container manufacturer says they are
suitable.
Important:
If you are unsure how to connect your oven,
please consult an authorised, qualified
electrician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer
can accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from failure
to observe the correct electrical connection
procedure.
Water vapour or drops may occasionally
form on the oven walls or around the door
seals and sealing surfaces. This is a normal
occurrence and is not an indication of
microwave leakage or a malfunction.
