PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Failure to observe the following safety precautions may result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
(a) Under no circumstances should any attempt be made to operate the oven with the door open or to tamper with the
safety interlocks (door latches) or to insert anything into the safety interlock holes.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven door and front face, or allow food or cleaner residues to accumulate on
sealing surfaces. Ensure that the door and door sealing surfaces are kept clean by wiping after use with first a
damp cloth and then a final wipe with a soft dry cloth.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it has been repaired by a qualified microwave service technician
trained by the manufacturer.
It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the :
(1) Door, Door seals and sealing surfaces
(2) Door hinges (broken or loose)
(3) Power cable
(d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone other than a properly qualified microwave service

Safety Precautions
Before cooking food or liquids in your microwave oven, please check that the following safety
precautions are taken.
DO NOT use any metallic cookware in the microwave oven:
◆Metallic containers
◆Dinnerware with gold or silver trimmings
◆Skewers, forks, etc.
Reason: Electric arcing or sparking may occur and may damage the oven.
DO NOT heat:
◆Airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars, containers
Example: Baby food jars
◆Airtight food
Example: Eggs, nuts in shells, tomatoes
Reason: The increase in pressure may cause them to explode.
Tip: Remove lids and pierce skins, bags, etc.
DO NOT operate the microwave oven when it is empty.
Reason: The oven walls may be damaged.
Tip: Leave a glass of water inside the oven at all times. The water will absorb the
microwaves if you accidentally set the oven going when it is empty.
DO NOT cover the side or rear ventilation slots with cloths or paper.
Reason: The cloths or paper may catch fire as hot air is evacuated from the oven.
ALWAYS use oven gloves when removing a dish from the oven.
Reason: Some dishes absorb microwaves and heat is always transferred from the food to the dish.
The dishes are therefore hot.
DO NOT touch heating elements or the interior oven walls.
Reason: These walls may be hot enough to burn skin even after cooking is finished, oven though
they do not appear to be so. Keep away from hot spot. Do not allow inflammable
materials to come into contact with any interior area of the oven. Let the oven cool down
first.
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity.
◆Do not store flammable materials in the oven.
◆Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags.
◆Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers.
◆If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and switch off or disconnect the oven from the power supply.

Safety Precautions (continued)
GB
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to time when food is
being heated or cooked in disposable containers of plastic paper or other
combustible material.
IMPORTANT:
Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play with the microwave oven.
Nor should they be left unattended near the microwave oven when it is in use.
Items of interest to children should not be stored or hidden just above the oven.
WARNING:
Oven casing and door will get hot during convection and combination cooking.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
◆ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to
allow the temperature to equalize.
◆Stir during heating if necessary and ALWAYS stir after heating.
◆To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should stir before, during, and after heating.
◆In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID instructions :
●Immerse hand in cold water for at least 10 minutes.
●Cover with clean, dry dressing.
●Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.
◆NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a container that is wider at the top than at the bottom
to prevent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with narrow necks may also explode if overheated.
◆ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk before giving it to the baby.
◆NEVER heat a baby's bottle with the teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated.
◆During microwave heating of beverages, there are results in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore
care has to be taken when handling the container.
Be careful not to damage the power cable.
◆Do not immerse power cable or plug in water and keep power cable away from heated surfaces.
◆Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged power cable or plug.
Stand at arm's length from the oven when opening the door.
Reason: The hot air or steam released may cause scalding.
Keep the inside of the oven clean
◆Clean the inside of the oven right after each use with a mild detergent solution, but let the
microwave oven cool down before cleaning in order to avoid injury.
Reason: Food particles or spattered oils stuck to oven walls or floor can cause the damage of
painting and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
“Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, especially in defrosting mode.
Reason: When the power output is changing electrically, you may hear that sound. This is normal.
When the microwave oven is operating without any load, the power will be cut off automatically for
safety. After standing for over 30 min, you can operate the oven normally.
☛Do not worry is the oven continues to work after cooking has finished.
Reason: This product is designed to fan for some minutes, not operating microwave oven(MWO), to
cool down the inner electronic parts when the stop button is pressed or the door is opened
after finishing cooking in case that the oven operates for some minutes in cooking(MWO,
GRILL, CONVECTION, MWO+GRILL, MWO+CONVECTION).
(When cooking has finished, the oven will beep and flash “0” four times. The oven will then
beep one time per minute.

How a Microwave Oven Works
10
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy
released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing
either the form or the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
◆Defrost
◆Reheat
◆Cook
Cooking Principle
1The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly as
the food rotates on the turn-table. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch
(2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.
3Cooking times vary according to the recipient used and the properties of
the food:
◆Quantity and density
◆Water content
◆Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
☛ As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation,
cooking continues even when you have taken the food
out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes and
in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
◆Even cooking of the food right to the centre
◆The same temperature throughout the food
Checking that Your Oven is Operating Correctly
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your
oven is working correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to
the section entitled “What to Do if You are in Doubt or Have a
Problem” on the next page.
➢◆The oven must be plugged into an appropriate
wall socket.
◆The turn-table must be in position in the oven.
◆If a power level other than the maximum (100% -
900 W) is used, the water takes longer to boil.
1Open the oven door by pulling the handle on the right side of the door.
Place a glass of water on the turn-table. Close the door.
2Press the Start ( 1min+) button and set the time to 4 or 5 minutes, by
pressing the ( 1min+) button the approprinte number of times.
Result: The oven heats the water for 4 or 5 minutes. The water should
then be boiling.

Using a Crusting Plate
Normally when cooking food, such as pizzas or pies, on a grill or in
a microwave oven, the dough or pastry becomes soggy. This can be
avoided by using a crusting plate; as a high temperature is reached
quickly, the crust turns crisp and brown.
The crusting plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc.
➢Before using the crusting plate, preheat it by selecting the
combination mode for 3 to 5 minutes:
◆Combination of convection (250°C) and
microwaves (600 W power level)
or
◆Combination of grill and microwaves (600 W
power level)
See pages 25 and 26 respectively.
1Preheat the crusting plate, as described above.
☛Use oven gloves at all times as the crusting plate will become very
hot.
2Brush the plate with oil if you are cooking food, such as bacon and eggs, in
order to brown the food nicely.
3Place the food on the crusting plate.
☛Do not place any recipients on the crusting plate that are not heat-
resistant (plastic bowls for example).
4Place the crusting plate on the turn-table in the microwave oven.
☛Never place the crusting plate in the oven without the turn-table.
5Select the appropriate power level by pressing the combi( or )
button. Then set the cooking time by turning the dial knob until the
appropriate cooking time is displayed.
6Press the Start ( 1min+) button.
Result: Cooking starts.
◆When cooking has finished, the oven will beep and flash
“0” four times. The oven will then beep one time per
minute.

How to clean the crusting plate
The best way to clean the crusting plate is to wash it with hot water
and detergent and then rinse if off with clean water. Do not use a
scrubbing brush or a hard sponge otherwise the top layer will be
damaged.
➢As the crusting plate has a Teflon layer, if you use it
incorrectly, it can be damaged.
◆ Never cut the food on the plate. Remove the food
from the plate prior to cutting.
◆ Turn the food over preferably with a plastic or wooden
spatula.

Choosing the Accessories
Traditional convection cooking does not require any special
cookware. You should, however, use only cookware that you would
use in your normal oven.
Microwave-safe recipients are not usually suitable for convection
cooking; don’t use plastic containers, dishes, paper cups, towels,
etc.
If you wish to select a combined cooking mode (microwave and
grill or convection), use only recipients that are microwave-safe
and oven-proof. Metallic cookware or utensils may damage your
oven.
➢For further details on suitable cookware and utensils, refer
to the Cookware Guide on page 29.
