Risk of personal injury
• WARNING: If the door or the
door seal is damaged, the oven
must not be used until it has been
repaired by a competent person.
• WARNING: It is hazardous for
anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves
the removal of a cover which
offers protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
• WARNING: Liquids and other
foods must not be heated in
sealed containers since they are
liable to explode.
• WARNING: During use the
appliance and its accessible parts
become very hot.
• Never touch the heating elements
during use.
• Keep children under eight years
of age at a safe distance if they
are not constantly supervised.
• This appliance may be used by
children aged at least 8 and by
people of reduced physical and
mental capacity, or lacking in
experience in the use of electrical
appliances, as long they are
supervised or instructed by adults
who are responsible for their
safety.
• Children must never play with the
appliance.
• The appliance must never be
cleaned by unsupervised children.
• Switch off the appliance
immediately after use.
• If smoke is emitted, switch off or
unplug the appliance and keep
the door closed in order to stifle
any flames.
• Never attempt to extinguish a
flame or fire with water.
• Have qualified personnel carry
out installation and assistance
interventions according to the
standards in force.
• Do not modify this appliance.
• Do not insert pointed metal
objects (cutlery or utensils) into the
slots in the appliance.

Instructions
39
EN
• Do not try to repair the appliance
yourself or without the intervention
of a qualified technician.
• If the power supply cable is
damaged, contact technical
support immediately and they will
replace it.
Risk of damaging the appliance
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents on glass parts (e.g.
powder products, stain removers
and metallic sponges).
• Use wooden or plastic utensils.
• Do not use a steam jet to clean
the appliance.
• Do not obstruct ventilation
openings and heat dispersal slots.
• Never leave the appliance
unattended during cooking
operations where fats or oils could
be released.
• Do not use the appliance to heat
rooms for any reason.
• Do not rest any weight or sit on
the open door of the appliance.
• Take care that no objects are
stuck in the doors.
1.2 Instructions for using
microwaves
• Check the appliance visually
during the cooking of foods in
plastic or paper containers.
• Use the microwave only for the
preparation of food for
consumption. Other types of
applications are strictly forbidden
Improper use
Danger of explosion
• When using the microwave to
heat or reheat liquids, the boiling
process may be delayed – boiling
temperature can be reached
without the formation of the usual
"rolling boil". This delayed boiling
and consequent superheating of
the liquid can generate an
explosion inside the appliance, or
sudden boiling over of the
superheated liquid can occur
when removing the container from
the appliance. To avoid these
dangers, it is necessary to insert
the supplied boiling rod (or a
heat-resistant plastic spoon) in the
container while heating.

Instructions
40
(e.g. drying clothes, warming
slippers, sponges, wet cloths or the
like, dehydrating foods) because
they can lead to the risk of injury or
fire.
• Clean the appliance constantly
and remove any food residue.
• Do not use the microwave to dry
food.
• Do not use the microwave to heat
oils or fry.
• Do not use the appliance to heat
foods or beverages containing
alcohol.
• Baby food should not be heated
in sealed containers. Remove the
cover or the teat (in the case of
baby bottles). Always check the
preparation's temperature once
heating has completed, it should
not be too high. For an even
temperature and to avoid scalding
stir or shake the contents.
• Do not heat eggs in their shells or
whole hard boiled eggs; they may
explode even after the heating
process has completed.
• Before cooking food with a hard
skin or peel (e.g. potatoes, apples,
etc.) it is necessary to puncture the
skin.
• Do not heat food contained within
food packages.
• Do not use the microwave
functions when the oven is empty.
• Use cookware and utensils that
are suitable for use in a
microwave oven.

4 Function knob
This knob can be used to:

or off
2.3 Microwaves
The appliance is equipped with a
microwave generator called a magnetron.
The microwaves generated are evenly
emitted into the oven compartment in order
to reach the food and heat it.
Heating takes place through the process of
friction between the molecules contained
within the food (mainly water molecules),
with the consequent generation of heat.
The heat generated directly inside the food
leads to defrosting, re-heating or cooking in
a shorter length of time compared to
traditional cooking.
The use of suitable containers for
microwave cooking allows the microwaves
to reach the food in a uniform manner (see
Materials suitable for microwaves).
2.4 Other parts
Shelves
The appliance features shelves to position
trays and racks at different heights. The
insertion heights are indicated from the
bottom upwards (see 2.1 General
Description).
Cooling fan
The fan cools the oven and comes into
operation during cooking.
The fan causes a steady outflow of air from
above the door which may continue for a
brief period of time even after the appliance
has been turned off.
When you have finished using the
appliance, always return the
function knob to the 0position.

Description

functions) so as to remove any
manufacturing residues.
Dishes must be without metal
decorations.
The microwave function can be
used without any food inside the
oven only for this test.
Unsuitable cookware
Risk of damages to the appliance
• If there is crackling or if sparks are
emitted from the cookware then
immediately terminate the test. In this
instance the cookware is not suitable for
microwave cooking.
For the first reheating use a
traditional function and not a
microwave function.

Use
