Installation Instru tion
Remove oven from packing
Remove all packing materials and accessories from
the oven cavity.
Check whether the following parts are in good
condition:
-Door and hinges;
-Front of the oven;
-Inside and outside of oven.
Should you find any faults DO NOT USE THE OVEN,
and contact your dealer.
Place the oven on a flat stable surface able to
support its weight.
To allow effi ient ooling of the mi rowave, its
installation is re ommended in a unit with an
opening in the upper part (refer to the installation
instru tions leaflet en losed).
When the mi rowave oven is installed in a olumn
with a onventional oven, the mi rowave oven
must not be lo ated underneath the onventional
oven be ause of the possibility of ondensation
forming inside the latter.
The oven should be kept away from heat and vapour
sources (electric oven, toasters, etc.).
The oven has been supplied with a mono-phase
power supply cord. The appliance must be earthed.
The manufacturers and dealers are not liable for any
breakdowns or personal accidents should these
installation instructions not be observed by the
purchaser.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

26
Important Information
WARNING: If the door or the door hinges are
damaged, the oven should not be swit hed on until
repaired by a qualified te hni ian.
WARNING: It is dangerous for anyone, ex ept a
qualified te hni ian, to tamper with the apparatus
or try to repair it in any way by removing any lid or
overing whi h assures prote tion against the
exposure to mi rowave energy.
WARNING: Liquids and other food should not be
heated in airtight re ipients as these an explode.
WARNING: Children should only be allowed to use
the oven without adult supervision if they have
been given the appropriate instru tions so that
they an use the oven safely and understand the
dangers of its in orre t use.
WARNING: When the mi rowave oven is operated
in the Combination mode (mi rowaves + grill),
hildren should only be allowed to use the unit
under adult supervision due to the high
temperatures generated.
hen heating food in plastic or paper recipients,
check the oven frequently in case they ignite.
If any smoke is detected, then switch off the oven or
disconnect it and keep the door closed in order for
any flame to die out.
After warming up baby bottles or baby food jars, stir
or shake its contents and check the temperature
before feeding, to avoid burns.
arming up drinks in the microwave oven may result
in a delayed eruptive boiling, therefore one should
be careful when handling the recipient.
Eggs with their shell and whole boiled eggs shouldn’t
be warmed up in microwave ovens as they may
explode.
Do not use any metal utensils inside the oven unless
they were supplied with the oven and for that
purpose.
Do not warm up liquids or other food in closed
recipients as they may explode.
Do not warm up pure alcohol or alcoholic drinks.
DANGER OF FIRE.
hen in doubt, choose short periods to cook, heat or
defrost food with microwaves. ith long cooking
periods the food may become dry and even begin to
burn.
Do not use the oven for anything other than
warming, cooking or defrosting food.
Do not operate the oven without its tray nor when
empty.
Keep the oven ventilation holes open. Never cover
any air vents or openings.

Des ription of the Mi rowave Oven
The advantages of a mi rowave oven:
In a conventional oven the heat radiated by the
resistances or gas burners, slowly penetrates the
food from the outside to the inside. There is,
therefore, a great loss of energy in the heating of the
air, oven components and recipients.
On the other hand, in microwave ovens the heat is
generated in the interior of the food itself, heating it
from the inside outwards. There is therefore no loss
of energy as the air, interior walls of the oven and
recipients (when adequate) do not heat up with
microwaves.
In short, microwave ovens have the following
advantages:
1. Save on cooking time: in general there is a 3/4
reduction of the cooking time than with
conventional methods.
2. Ultra-quick defrosting that prevents bacteria
development.
3. Electricity saving.
4. Maintaining the nutritive value of the food due
to the cooking time reduction.
5. Easy cleaning.
How the mi rowave oven works
In the microwave oven there is a high voltage valve
called "Magnetron" that converts electric energy to
microwave energy. These electromagnetic waves are
conducted to the inside of the oven cavity by means
of wave-guide and spread by a mode stirrer or by a
turntable.
Inside the oven the microwaves spread out in all
directions and are reflected by the metallic walls,
penetrating the food evenly.

28
Why does the food heat up?
Most food contains water, whose molecules vibrate
with microwaves.
The friction between the molecules generates heat,
which causes a temperature rise in the food,
defrosting it, cooking it or keeping it warm.
As the heat is formed inside the food:
-It may be cooked with little or no liquid or fat;
-Defrosting, heating or cooking in the microwave
oven is quicker than in a conventional oven;
-Vitamins, minerals and nutritive substances are
preserved;
-There is no change in the natural colour and
smell of the food.
The microwaves pass through porcelain, glass,
cardboard or plastic but not through metal.
Therefore, recipients made of or containing metal
should not be used in the microwave oven.
The microwaves are reflected by the metal…
…they pass through glass, porcelain…
…they are absorbed by the food.
