Safety Information
Warning! The oven cannot be used if:
- The door is not closed correctly;
- The door hinges are damaged;
- The surfaces of the contact between the door and the oven front are damaged;
- The door window glass is damaged;
- There is frequent electrical arcing inside the oven even though there is no metal object

Service technician.
If smoke is emitted, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order
to stifle any flames.
Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling. Care must be
taken when handling the container.
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken and the

Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in the appliance
since they may explode, even after microwave heating has ended.
INSTALLATION
The electrical installation is to be set up so that the appliance can be isolated from the
mains with a minimum 3mm all-pole contact separation.
Suitable separation devices include e.g. cutouts, fuses (screw fuses are to be taken out of
the holder), RCD’s and contactors. This installation must comply with current regulations.
If the electrical connection is done through a plug and this remains accessible after
installation, then it is not necessary to provide the mentioned separation device.
Protection against electric shock must be provided by the electrical installation
Warning: The oven must be earthed.
CLEANING
The appliance should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
Failure to maintain the appliance in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the
surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a
hazardous situation.

Safety Information
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass door since
they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
The door contact surfaces (the front of the cavity and the inside part of the doors) must be
kept very clean in order to ensure the oven functions correctly.
Please follow the instructions regarding cleaning in the section "Oven Cleaning and
Maintenance".
REPAIRS
WARNING: Before maintenance cut the power supply.
WARNING: Only a competent person can carry out any service or repair operation that
involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave
energy.
WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the appliance must not be operated
until it has been repaired by a competent person.
If the power cable is damaged it should be substituted by the manufacturer, authorized
agents or technicians qualified for this task in order to avoid dangerous situations.
Furthermore, special tools are required for this task.
Repair and maintenance work, especially of current carrying parts, can only be carried out
by technicians authorized by the manufacturer.

Safety Instructions
Warning! Do not heat pure alcohol or alcoholic
drinks in the microwave. FIRE RISK!
Beware!
To avoid food overheating or burning it is very
important not to select long time periods or power
levels that are too high when heating small
quantities of food. For example, a bread roll can
burn after 3 minutes if the power selected is too
high.
For toasting, use just the grilling function and watch
the oven all the time. It you use a combined
function to toast bread it will catch fire in a very
short time.
Make sure you never catch the power cables of
other electrical appliances in the hot door or the
oven. The cable insulation may melt.
Danger of short-circuiting!
Take care when heating liquids!
When liquids (water, coffee, tea, milk, etc.) are
nearly at boiling point inside the oven and are
taken out suddenly, they may spurt out of their
containers.
DANGER OF INJURIES AND BURNS!
To avoid that type of situation when heating liquids,
put a teaspoon or glass rod inside the container.
Avoid damaging the oven or other dangerous
situations by following these instructions:
Do not switch on the oven without the turntable
support, the turntable ring and the respective plate
being in place.
Never switch on the microwave when it is empty. If
there is no food inside there may be an electrical
overcharge and the oven could be damaged.
RISK OF DAMAGE!
For carrying out oven programming tests put a
glass of water inside the oven. The water will
absorb the microwaves and the oven will not be
damaged.
Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.
Use only dishes suitable for microwaves. Before
using dishes and containers in the microwave,
check that these are suitable (see the section on
types of dishes).
Never remove the mica cover on the ceiling of the
oven interior! This cover stops fat and pieces of
food damaging the microwave generator.
Do not keep any inflammable object inside the
oven as it may burn if the oven is switched on.
Do not use the oven as a pantry.
Do not use the oven for frying as it is impossible to
control the temperature of oil heated by
microwaves.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door. This may
damage the oven, especially in the hinge zone.
The door can bear a maximum weight of 8 kg.
The turntable and the grills can bear a maximum load of
8 kg. To avoid damaging the oven, do not exceed this
load.

The advantages of microwaves
In conventional ovens, heat radiated by electrical elements or
gas burners slowly penetrates the food from outside to
inside. On account of this there is a major amount of energy
is wasted heating the air, the oven components and the food
containers.
In a microwave oven, heat is generated by the food itself and
the heat travels from inside to outside. No heat is lost to the
air, the walls of the oven cavity or the dishes and containers
(if these are suitable for use in microwave oven), in other
words, only the food is heated.
Microwave ovens have the following advantages:
1. Shorter cooking times; in general these are up to 3/4
less than the time required for conventional cooking.
2. Ultra-fast food defrosting, thus reducing the danger of
bacterial development.
3. Energy savings.
4. Conservation of the nutritional value of foods due to
the shorter cooking times.
5. Easy to clean.
How a microwave oven works
In a microwave oven there is a high tension valve called a
magnetron which converts electrical energy into microwave
energy. These electromagnetic waves are channelled to the
interior of the oven through a wave guide and distributed by a
metallic spreader or through a turntable.
Inside the oven the microwaves propagate in all directions
and are reflected by the metal walls, uniformly penetrating
the food.
Why food heats up
Most foods contain water and water molecules vibrate when
subjected to microwaves.
The friction between molecules produces heat which raises
the temperature of the food, de-freezing it, cooking it or
keeping it hot.
Since the heat arises inside the food:
This can be cooked with little or no liquid or fats/oils;
De-freezing, heating or cooking in a microwave oven
is quicker than in a conventional oven;
The vitamins, minerals and nutritional substances in
the food are conserved;
The natural colour and aroma of the food are
unchanged.
Microwaves pass through china, glass, cardboard or plastic
but do not go through metal. For this reason, metal
containers or ones with metal parts must not be used in a
microwave oven.
Microwaves are reflected by metal...
... but go through glass and china...
and are absorbed by foods.
