er at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
ONLY ALLOW CHILDREN to use the appliance
without adult supervision after adequate
instructions have been given, so that the
child is able to use the appliance in a safe
way and understands the hazards of im-
proper use. Children should be supervised
when using other heatsources (if avaliable)
separately or in combination with micro-
waves due to the high temperatures gen-
erated.
THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR use by per-
sons (including children) with reduced
physical. sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, un-
less they have been given supervision or in-
struction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE
oven for heating anything in
airtight sealed contain-
ers. The pressure increas-
es and may cause damage
when opening or may explode.
EGGS
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for cook-
ing or reheating whole eggs with or
without shell since they may
explode even after microwave
heating has ended.
THE DOOR SEALS AND THE DOOR SEAL AREAS must
be regularly inspected for damage. If these
areas are damaged the appliance should
not be operated until it has been repaired
by a trained service technician.

GENERAL
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!
THE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food
in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in
this manner is likely to damage the appliance.
IFYOU PRACTICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass
of water inside. The water will absorb the mi-
crowave energy and the oven will not be dam-
aged.
REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or
plastic bags before placing bag in
the oven.
DEEPFRYING
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for deep-frying,
because the oil temperature cannot be
controlled.
LIQUIDS
E.G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. 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:
1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
2. Stir the liquid before placing the container
in the oven and let the teaspoon remain
in the container.
3. After heating, allow standing for a short
time, stirring again before carefully re-
moving the container from the oven.
CAREFUL
ALWAYS REFER to a microwave cookbook for de-
tails. Especially, if cooking or reheating food
that contains alcohol.
AFTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a
baby bottle or in a baby food
jar, always stir and check the
temperature before serving.
This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed
and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.
Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed be-
fore heating!
PRECAUTIONS
USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent
burns, when touching containers, oven
parts, and pan after cooking.
DONOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
IFACCESSORIES CONTAINING METAL comes in contact
with the oven interior, while the oven is in op-
eration, sparking can occur and the oven could
be damaged.
TURNTABLE SUPPORT
USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
Glass turntable. Never put any oth-
er utensils on the turntable sup-
port.
Fit the turntable support in the oven.

GLASS TURNTABLE
USE THE GLASS TURNTABLE with all cooking meth-
ods. It collects the dripping juic-
es and food particles that other-
wise would stain and soil the in-
terior of the oven.
Place the Glass turntable on the turntable
support.

ENSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof
and allow microwaves to
pass through them before
cooking.
WHEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACCESSORIES in the micro-
wave oven, ensure that they do not come in
contact with the interior of the oven.
This is especially important with accesso-
ries made of metal or metal parts.
ALWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn
freely before starting the oven.
THERE ARE a number of accessories available on
the market. Before you buy, ensure they are
suitable for microwave use.

MANUAL DEFROST
FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE for “How to cook & reheat
with microwaves” and choose power level 160 W
when defrosting manually.
CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY. Experi-
ence will give you the times needed for vari-
ous amounts.
TURN LARGE JOINTS halfway through the defrost-
ing process.
FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic films or card-
board packages can be placed directly in the
oven as long as the package has no met-
al parts (e.g. metal twist ties).
THE SHAPE OF THE PACKAGE alters the de-
frosting time. Shallow packets defrost
more quickly than a deep block.
SEPARATE PIECES as they begin to defrost.
Individual slices defrost more easily.
SHIELD AREAS OF FOOD with small
pieces of aluminum foil if
they start to become warm
(e.g. chicken legs and wing
tips).
BOILED FOOD, STEWS AND MEAT SAUCES defrost
better if stirred during defrosting time.
WHEN DEFROSTING it is better to under-
thaw the food slightly and allow the
process to finish during standing time.
STANDING TIME AFTER DEFROSTING ALWAYS IMPROVES
the result since the temperature
will then be evenly distribut-
ed throughout the food.

FROZEN FOODS:
IFTHE FOOD IS WARMER than deep-freeze
temperature (-18°C), choose lower
weight of the food.
IFTHE FOOD IS COLDER than deep-freeze
temperature (-18°C), choose higher
weight of the food.
THIS FUNCTION NEEDS TO KNOW the net weight of
the food. The oven will then auto-
matically calculate the needed time
to finish the procedure.
IFTHE WEIGHT IS LESSER OR GREATER THAN RECOMMEND-
ED WEIGHT: Follow the procedure for“Cook & Re-
heat with microwaves” and choose 160 W when

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
CLEANING IS THE ONLY MAINTENANCE normally re-
quired.
DISHWASHER SAFE:
TURNTABLE SUPPORT.
GLASS TURNTABLE.
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN 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.
DONOT USE METAL SCOURING PADS,
ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, steel-
wool pads, gritty wash-
cloths, etc. which can
damage the control pan-
el, and the interior and exterior oven sur-
faces. Use a sponge with a mild detergent
or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner.
Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel.
DONOT SPRAY directly on the oven.
ATREGULAR INTERVALS, especially if spill
overs have occurred, remove the
turntable, the turntable support
and wipe the base of the oven
clean.
THIS OVEN IS DESIGNED to operate with the turnta-
ble in place.
DONOT operate the microwave oven
when the turntable has been removed
for cleaning.
USE AMILD DETERGENT, water and a soft cloth to
clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of the
door and the door opening.
DONOT ALLOW GREASE or food particles to
build up around the door.
DONOT USE STEAM CLEANING APPLIANCES when
cleaning your microwave oven.
ADDING SOME LEMON JUICE to a cup of water, plac-
ing this on the turntable and boiling for a few
minutes can eliminate odors inside the oven.
FOR STUBBORN STAINS, boil a cup of water in the
oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the
marks.
