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.

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.
WARNING: The mi rowave oven should be
leaned regularly and any food deposits removed
(please see the hapter on Oven Maintenan e for
details). Failure to maintain the oven in a lean
ondition ould lead to deterioration of the
surfa e that ould adversely affe t the life of the
applian e and possibly result in a hazardous
situation.
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, even after microwave heating
has ended.
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in
microwave ovens. 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.
FIRE DANGER.
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.

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.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

29
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.

General Thawing Instru tions
1. Use suitable containers when thawing
(porcelain, glass or other material that is
suitable for using with microwave ovens).
2. The Thawing by eight and Thawing by time
tables refer to raw food items and the weights
given do not include the containers.
3. The thawing time will vary depending on the
amount and height of the food items. Small
amounts will thaw more easily than large ones.
4.In the case of more delicate food items or
those with an irregular shape, it is
recommended that the smaller parts, such as
the legs and wings of poultry of fish fins be
covered. Aluminium foil should be used for
this and removed after half the thawing time
has elapsed. The aluminium foil should be at
least two centimetres from the microwave
oven wall, otherwise it will cause sparking.
5. Thick food items should be turned several
times.
6. The frozen food items should be evenly
distributed inside the microwave oven. Flat
food items will thaw more easily.
7. Food items containing a lot of fat, such as
butter or cottage cheese (a dairy product,
which is quite thick), together with cream,
should not be completely thawed. Only a few
minutes of waiting time are required so that
these are ready to be served and consumed.
Cream that was frozen should be whipped if
there are still a few frozen pieces remaining.
8. Poultry should be placed on a small plate
upside down so that they are able to drain
better.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a serviette to
prevent it from drying out.

Advi e for Good Usage of the Oven
Working with mi rowaves
Before using any dish, make sure that it is
appropriate for use in microwaves (SEE ADVICE ON
THE USE OF UTENSILS AND RECIPIENTS).
Always make a slit in the food's shell before
cooking it.
henever heating liquids use a recipient with a
large opening to allow the vapour to escape.
Remember that:
1. Larger quantities of food require more cooking
time.
2. The lower the food temperature the more
cooking time is needed.
3. Less dense foods cook faster.
4. An even distribution of the food in the oven
guarantees better results. The cooking of
different types of foods simultaneously is
possible by placing the dense food in an
outside circle and the less dense in the centre
of the plate.
5. Better results are achieved by allowing the
food to stand before serving because it
continues to cook for some time after the oven
is switched off.
6. The cooking time may be shortened and the
liquids preserved (the food doesn't dry out) by
covering the food. The lids should be
transparent to allow the microwaves through
and they should have a small opening for the
vapour to escape.
Fun tioning of the grill
For best results of the grill, use the grill rack
supplied with the appliance.
Do not pla e the grill ra k in onta t with the
avity’s metal surfa e as there may be an
ele tri ar and onsequent damages.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. hile the grill is being used for the first time,
the producing of fumes and odours is normal,
due to the oils used in the manufacturing
process.
2. After the first uses 0f the grill, it is normal for
the perforated area that protects the heating
elements of the grill to deform and to become
a golden colour due to the high temperatures
that the grill reaches during use.
3. The glass on the door reaches high
temperatures during grilling. Therefore the
oven should be installed at least 80 cm above
the floor, SO AS TO BE OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN.
4. hile in operation, the inside walls of the oven
and the grill become very hot, therefore the
use of kitchen gloves is recommended.
5. During extended use of the grill it is normal for
the heating elements to switch off for short
periods due to the action of the safety
temperature limiter.
6.Do not use plastic containers or others that
have poor temperature resistance, as these
could be destroyed due to the high
temperatures that the grill reaches.

Advi e on the use of Cookware
Metal
Do not use metal dishes, tinned food, food
wrapped in tin foil and cutlery inside the microwave
oven. The metal reflects the microwaves and food
is not heated.
The food should be removed from its tin foil
containers and placed in dishes adequate for use
in the microwave oven. As microwaves don't
penetrate tin foil, the food heats only on the
surface. By using appropriate dishes, the heat is
evenly distributed throughout the food.
EXCEPTIONS:
EXCEPTIONS:EXCEPTIONS:
EXCEPTIONS:
To cook or defrost pieces of meat of irregular sizes,
you may cover the thinner parts with tin foil, which
should be kept at least 2 cm away from the oven
walls, otherwise these may cause an electric arc.
Metal spits may be used as long as they are
smaller than the pieces of meat.
Glass
All heat proof glass containers may be used.
Crystal contains a percentage of lead, which may
cause it to crack if used in the microwave oven.
The same may happen to glass dishes with jagged
edges.
Por elain
Porcelain dishes may be used but they should not
have hollow handles. Humidity may be formed
inside the hollow handles, which will causes an
increase in pressure that may cause them to
break.
Glazed Cerami Dishes
This type of dish may heat considerably.
Painted glazed ceramic dishes may be used if the
painting is done under the glaze.
Many glazes and colours contain metallic
substances. If this is the case they should not be
used in the microwave as they may be damaged.
Recipients with silver and gold glazes may go dark.
Plasti
Plastic dishes should be heat resistant (at least
180° C) or they may be deformed when used in
the microwave. Melamine dishes are not suitable
for use in the microwave as they heat up too much.
To cook or heat food in plastic bags, they should
be perforated to allow vapour to escape thus
preventing the bag from bursting.
