other combustible materials. Fire could result.
DONOT OVER-COOK FOOD. Fire could result.
DONOT LEAVE THE OVEN UNATTENDED, especially
when using paper, plastic or other combustible
materials in the cooking process. Paper can char
or burn and some plastics can melt if used when
heating foods.
IFMATERIAL INSIDE / OUTSIDE THE OVEN SHOULD IG-
NITE OR SMOKE IS OBSERVED, keep oven door clo-
sed and turn the oven off. Disconnect the power
cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit brea-
ker panel.
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
ONLY ALLOW CHILDREN to use the appliance under
adult supervision and 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 improper use.
THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, unless used under the
supervision of a person responsible for their safety.
WARNING!
ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT during use, young
children should be kept away
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for hea-
ting anything in airtight sealed con-
tainers. The pressure increases and
may cause damage when ope-
ning or may explode.
EGGS
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for cooking or
reheating whole eggs with or without shell
since they may explode even after mi-
crowave heating has ended.
THE DOOR SEALS AND THE DOOR SEAL AREAS must be re-
gularly inspected for damage. If these areas are da-
maged the appliance should not be operated until it

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 microwa-
ve energy and the oven will not be damaged.
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 fol-
lowing 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 removi-
ng 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!
IMPORTANT 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 ope-
ration, sparking can occur and the oven could be
damaged.
TURNTABLE SUPPORT
USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
Glass turntable. Never put any other
utensils on the turntable support.
Fit the turntable support in the
oven.
GLASS TURNTABLE
USE THE GLASS TURNTABLE with all cooking me-
thods. It collects the dripping jui-
ces and food particles that other-
wise would stain and soil the inte-
rior 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 coo-
king.
WHEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACCESSORIES in the micro-
wave oven, ensure that they do not come in con-
tact with the interior of the oven.
This is especially important with accessories
made of metal or metal parts.
ALWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn
freely before starting the oven.
CRISP HANDLE
USE THE SUPPLIED SPECIAL CRISP HAN-
DLE to remove the hot Crisp plate from
the oven.
CRISP-PLATE
PLACE THE FOOD DIRECTLY ON THE CRISP-PLATE.
Always use the Glass turnta-
ble as support when using
the Crisp-plate.
DONOT PLACE ANY UTENSILS on the
Crisp-plate since it will quickly become
very hot and is likely to cause damage
to the utensil.
THE CRISP-PLATE may be preheated before use
(max. 3 min..). Always use the Crisp function
when preheating the crisp-plate.
THERE ARE a number of accessories available on
the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suita-
ble for microwave use.
WIRE RACK
USE THE WIRE RACK when grilling
using the grill or cooking in com-
bination (microwaves and grill).
START PROTECTION / KEY LOCK
THIS AUTOMATIC SAFETY FUNCTION IS ACTIVATED ONE
MINUTE AFTER the oven has returned to
“stand by mode“. (The oven is in “stand
by” when the 24-hour clock is displa-
yed or if the clock has not been set,
when the display is blank).
THE DOOR MUST BE OPENED AND CLOSED e.g. putting
food into it, before the safety lock is released. Else
the display will show “DOOR”.

DONENESS (AUTO FUNCTIONS ONLY)
DONENESS IS AVAILABLE in most of the auto functi-
ons. You have the possibility to personally control
the end result through the Adjust doneness fea-
ture. This feature enables you to achieve higher
or lower end temperature compared to the defa-
ult standard setting.
WHEN USING one of these functions the oven cho-
oses the default standard setting. This setting
normally gives you the best result. But if the food
you heated became too warm to eat at once, you
can easily adjust this before you use that function
the next time. NOTE:
THE DONENESS can only be set or altered during
the first 20 seconds of operation.
WHEN USING SOME OF THE AUTO FUNCTIONS the oven
may stop (depending on the chosen program
and food class) and prompt you to STIR FOOD or
TURN FOOD.
