the protective covers which act as a shield
against exposure to microwaves.
This appliance is fitted with an earthed
power cord and an earthed plug. It must
be connected to an earthed socket.
If an electrical short circuit occurs,
the earthing system provides a direct
path allowing the electric current to be
discharged to earth, thus reducing the
risk of electrocution.
IMPORTANT
Risk of electrocution
Incorrect use of the earthing system can
cause electrocution. Only plug the appliance
in after it has been correctly installed, and
after making sure an earthing system is
fitted.

Cooking UTENSILS
GUIDE TO CROCKERY
Some non-metal utensils may be suitable for use in
microwave ovens. If you are not sure, the utensil in
question may be tested in line with the procedure
below.
Utensil test:
1. Pour 1 cup of cold water (250 ml) into a
microwaveable container and place the utensil in
question inside.
2. Cook at maximum power for 1 minute.
3. Touch the utensil carefully. If the utensil is hot, it
must not be used for microwave cooking.
4. Do not exceed a cooking time of 1 minute.
Materials safe for use in microwave ovens.
Note: for all materials, in any case follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Utensils Notes
Crisp plate
(accessory
The bottom of the crisp plate must be at least 5 mm (3/16 inches) above the
turntable. Incorrect use can cause the turntable to break.
Plates and
crockery
Only if microwave-safe. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Do not use
cracked or chipped crockery.
Glass jars Always remove the lid. Only use them to heat food, so that the contents are just
hot enough all the way through. Most glass jars or bottles are not heat-resistant
and may break.
Glass items Only heat-resistant glass ovenware. Make sure there are no metal applications.
Do not use cracked or chipped crockery.
Oven cooking
bags
Do not use metal clips to seal them. Create some slits to allow steam to escape.
Paper plates
and cups
Only for short cooking/heating periods. Do not leave the oven unattended during
cooking.
Paper napkins May be used to reheat food and to absorb oil and fat. Only for short cooking
periods, supervising the process carefully.
Baking paper Use as protection to prevent spattering or as a cover when steam cooking.
Plastic
materials
Follow the manufacturer's instructions. The “Microwave safe” label must be
present. Some plastic containers become soft when the food inside heats up.
Make holes, slits or air vents in “boiling bags” and airtight plastic bags, in
accordance with the instructions on the packaging.
Plastic film Use to cover food to prevent residual moisture from being lost during cooking.
Make sure the plastic film does not come into contact with the food.
Waxed paper Use as protection against spattering and to retain moisture.
GB-11

Materials not safe for use in microwave ovens
Utensils Notes
Aluminium trays May cause an electric arc to form. Transfer food to a microwave-safe plate.
Cardboard food
containers with
metal handles
May cause an electric arc to form. Transfer food to a microwaveable plate.
Metal utensils or
metal-finish
utensils
Metal protects food against microwaves. Metal finishes can cause an electric
arc to form.
Metal sealing
clips
They may cause an electric arc to form, which in turn may result in a fire
starting inside the oven.
Paper bags May cause a fire to start inside the oven.
Expanded plastic
foam
Expanded plastic foam may melt or contaminate the liquid inside it when
exposed to high temperatures.
Wood As wood dries after it has been used in a microwave oven, it may split or crack.
Advice for microwave cooking, observe the following recommendations:
- Before heating or cooking food with peel or skin (e.g. apples, tomatoes, potatoes, sausages),
prick them so they do not burn. Dice food before starting to prepare it.
- Before using a container or plate, make sure it is microwave-safe (see paragraph on cooking
utensil types).
- When cooking foods with very little moisture (e.g. defrosting bread, making popcorn, etc.),
evaporation takes place extremely quickly.
The oven then functions as if it is empty, which puts the food at risk of burning. The oven and the
container may be damaged. We therefore recommend setting the time for no longer than is
strictly necessary, and supervising the cooking process closely.
- The microwave cannot be used to heat large quantities of oil (for frying).
- Remove pre-cooked food from its container, as this type of container is not always heat-resistant.
Observe the instructions supplied by the manufacturer.
- If using various containers, e.g. cups, arrange them evenly on top of the turntable.
- Do not seal plastic bags with metal clips. Use plastic clips. Pierce the bags several times so that
steam can escape easily.
- Steam may build up on the oven door during cooking and may then begin to drip. This situation is
normal and may also not be so evident in low room temperatures. This situation does not
influence correct and safe oven operation. On completion of cooking, dry any condensation
which has formed.
- When heating liquids, use containers with a wide opening, so that steam can evaporate easily.
Prepare food in accordance with the instructions, and observe the cooking times and power levels
in the automatic mode food cooking tables. Bear in mind that the figures provided are purely
indicative and may vary depending on the type of food, its initial state, temperature and moisture
level. We recommend adjusting the cooking times and power levels in line with each individual
situation. Depending on the characteristics of the food, it may be necessary to increase or reduce
cooking times or power levels.
GB-12

When cooking in the microwave... bear the following in mind:
1. The lower the temperature, the longer the cooking time will be.
2. Food containing a lot of liquid will heat up more quickly.
3. Distributing the food evenly on the turntable will produce more uniform cooking results. By
placing denser foods around the outside of the plate and less dense foods in the centre, different
types of food can be heated at the same time.
4. The oven door may be opened at any time. When it is opened, the oven will switch off
automatically. The microwave oven will only resume operation after the door has been closed
and the power button pressed.
5. Covered food requires a shorter cooking time and retains more of its properties. Lids must allow
microwaves to pass through and have small holes which let steam evaporate.
