Important Safety Instructions
Meat Thermometer
Use a meat thermometer to check
the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry only when meat has been
removed from the microwave oven.
If undercooked, return to the oven
and cook for a few more minutes
at the recommended power level.
Do not use a conventional meat
thermometer in the oven when
microwaving, because it may cause
sparking.
Small Quantities of Foods
Small quantities of food or foods
with low moisture content can burn,
dry out or catch on fire if cooked
too long. If materials inside the
oven should ignite, keep the oven
door closed, turn the oven off and
remove the plug from the socket.
Eggs
Do not cook eggs in their shells
and whole hard-boiled eggs by
microwave. Pressure may build up
and the eggs may explode, even
after the microwave heating has
ended.
Foods with Skins
Potatoes, apples, egg yolk, whole
vegetables and sausages are exam-
ples of food with non porous skins.
These must be pierced using a fork
before cooking to prevent bursting.
Liquids
When heating liquids, e.g. soup,
sauces and beverages in your
microwave oven, overheating the
liquid beyond boiling point can occur
without evidence of bubbling.
This could result in a sudden boil
over of the hot liquid. To prevent this
possibility the following steps should
be taken:
Avoid using straight-sided
containers with narrow necks.
Do not overheat.
Stir the liquid before placing the
container in the oven and again
halfway through the heating time.
After heating, allow to stand in
the oven for a short time, stirring
again before carefully removing
the container.
Microwave heating of beverages
can result in delayed eruptive
boiling, therefore care should be
taken when handling the container.
Paper/Plastic
When heating food in plastic or
paper containers, keep an eye on
the oven due to the possibility of
ignition. Do not use wire twist-ties
with roasting bags when cooking
mode includes microwave power
as arcing will occur. Do not use
recycled paper products, e.g.
Kitchen roll unless they say they
are specifically designed for use in
a microwave oven. These products
contain impurities which may cause
sparks and/or fires when used.
Liquids and other foods must not
be heated in sealed containers
since they are liable to explode.
Warning!

- EN 15 -
Important Safety Instructions
Utensils/Foil
Do not heat any closed cans or
bottles because they might explode.
Metal containers or dishes with
metallic trim should not be used
during microwave cooking. Sparking
will occur.
If you use any aluminium foil, meat
spikes or metalware the distance
between them and the oven walls
and door should be at least 2 cm to
prevent sparking.
Babies Bottles and Food Jars
When reheating babies bottles
always remove top and teat. Liquid
at the top of the bottle will be much
hotter than that at the bottom and
must be shaken thoroughly before
checking the temperature. The lid
must also be removed from babies
food jars, the contents must also
be stirred or shaken before the
temperature is checked. This should
be carried out before consumption
in order to avoid burns.
See pages 92-93.
Short Cooking Times
As microwave cooking times are
much shorter than other cooking
methods it is essential that
recommended cooking times are
not exceeded without first checking
the food.
Cooking times given in the charts
are approximate. Factors that may
affect cooking times are: preferred
degree of cooking, starting
temperature, altitude, volume, size
and shape of foods and utensils
used. As you become familiar with
If the recommended cooking
times are exceeded the food
will be spoiled and in extreme
circumstances could catch fire
and possibly damage the interior
of the oven.
Important
the oven, you will be able to adjust
these factors.
It is better to initially undercook
rather than overcook foods. If food
is undercooked, it can always be
returned to the oven for further
cooking. If food is overcooked,
nothing can be done. Always start
with minimum cooking times.
Small Quantities of Food
Take care when heating small
quantities of food as these can
easily burn, dry out or catch fire if
cooked too long. Always set short
cooking times and check the food
frequently.
Never operate the oven without
food inside on Microwave or
Combination mode involving
microwave.
Note

Important Safety Instructions
Boiled Eggs
Eggs in their shell and whole
hardboiled eggs should not be
heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode even after
microwave heating has ended.
Lids
Always remove the lids of jars and
containers and takeaway food
containers before you microwave
them. If you don’t then steam and
pressure might build up inside and
cause an explosion even after the
microwave cooking has stopped.
Deep Fat Frying
Do not attempt to deep fat fry in
your oven.
Reheating
It is essential that reheated food
is served “piping hot”. Remove
the food from the oven and check
that it is “piping hot”, i.e. steam is
being emitted from all parts and
any sauce is bubbling. (If you wish
you may choose to check the food
has reached 72 °C with a food
thermometer – but remember do
not use this thermometer inside the
microwave.)
For foods that cannot be stirred, e.g.
lasagne, shepherds pie, the centre
should be cut with a knife to test
it is well heated through. Even if a
manufacturer’s packet instructions
have been followed always check
the food is piping hot before serving
and if in doubt return your food to
the oven for further heating.
Standing Time
Standing time refers to the period
at the end of cooking or reheating
when food is left before being eaten,
i.e. it is a rest time which allows
the heat in the food to continue
to conduct to the centre, thus
eliminating cold spots.
Keeping Your Oven Clean
It is essential for the safe operation
of the oven that it is wiped out
regularly. Use warm soapy water,
squeeze the cloth out well and
use to remove any grease or food
from the interior. Pay particular
attention to the door seal area. The
oven should be unplugged when
cleaning.
Grilling
The oven will only operate on the
Grill function with the door closed.
Storage of Accessories
Do not store any objects other than
oven accessory inside the oven in
case it is accidentally turned on.
Arcing
Arcing may occur if a metal
container has been used incorrectly,
if the incorrect weight of food is
used, or if the accessories have
been damaged. Arcing is when
blue flashes of light are seen in
the microwave oven. If this occurs,
stop the machine immediately. If
the oven is left unattended and
this continues it can damage the
machine. You can continue to cook
by Grill, Oven or Steam only.

- EN 17 -
Care & Cleaning of Your Oven
1. Switch the oven off before
cleaning and unplug at the
socket if possible.
2. Keep the inside of the oven,
door seals and door seal
areas clean.
When food splatters or spilled
liquids adhere to oven walls,
door seals and door seal areas
wipe off with a damp cloth. Mild
detergent may be used if they
get very dirty. The use of harsh
detergent or abrasives is not
recommended.
3. After using Grill, Oven, Steam,
and Combination cooking the
walls of the oven should be
cleaned with a soft cloth and
soapy water. Particular care
should be taken to keep the
window area clean especially
after cooking by Grill, Oven,
Steam, and Combination.
Stubborn spots inside the oven
can be removed by using a
small amount of conventional
oven-cleaner sprayed onto a soft
damp cloth. Wipe onto problem
spots, leave for recommended
time and then wipe off. Do not
spray directly inside the oven.
4. After cooking with a steam
function, wipe away any
excess water which may have
condensed within the oven
cavity. Empty the drip tray (refer
to page 20).
5. Do not use harsh abrasive
