Safety Instructions
• The built-in safety interlock switches prevent the
microwave oven from operating when the door is
open.
• Do not tamper with them, or attempt to operate
the oven with the door open as open door
operation can result in exposure to microwave
energy.
• Do not allow food spills or cleaner residue to
accumulate on door sealing surfaces. See the
Cleaning and Care section for cleaning
instructions.
• Do not operate the oven if it is damaged until it
has been repaired by qualified service personnel.
• It is particularly important that the oven door
closes properly and that there is no damage to
the: (1) door (warped), (2) hinges and latches
(broken or insecure), (3) door seals and sealing
surface.
• Under no circumstances should you attempt to
repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out
by inexperienced persons may cause injury or
serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service
Force Centre.
• Do not remove the outer case, door or control
panel at any time. Doing so may cause exposure
to extremely high voltage.
• Install or locate this oven only in accordance with
“INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS” found in this
manual.
• Use the appliance for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use corrosive
chemicals in this appliance. This type of oven is
specifically designed to heat, cook, or defrost
food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory
use neither for commercial use as this will
invalidate the guarantee.
• Do not operate the oven empty. If food or water is
not present to absorb the microwave energy, the
magnetron tube can be damaged.
• Close supervision is necessary when the oven is
used by children.
• Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use
this product near water.

food in the cavity when not in use.
Utensil safety
Most glass, glass ceramic and heat-resistant
glassware utensils are excellent for use in the
microwave oven. Although microwave energy will not
heat most glass and ceramic items, these utensils
can become hot as heat transfers from the food to
the container. The use of oven gloves to remove
dishes is recommended.

Testing suitability of cookwareFood safety
Do not heat food in a can in the microwave oven.
• Place the cookware in the cavity along with a
glass half full of water. Heat on 700 W (100%) for
one minute. If the cookware feels hot, you should
not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it
for reheating but not for cooking. If the dish is
room temperature, it is suitable for microwave
cooking.
• Paper napkins, wax paper, paper towels, plates,
cups, cartons, freezer wrap and cardboard are
great convenience utensils. Always be sure
containers are filled with food to absorb energy
and thus avoid the possibility of overheating.
• Many plastic dishes, cups, freezer containers and
plastic wraps may be used in the microwave
oven. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when
using plastics in the oven. Avoid using plastic
utensils with foods that have high fat or sugar
content since these foods reach high
temperatures and could melt some plastics.
Do not leave oven unattended, and look at it
•
from time to time when heating or cooking
food in plastic, paper or other combustible
containers. If smoke is observed, keep door
closed, switch the oven off or disconnect
oven until smoke stops.
Metal utensils and utensils with metallic trim
•
should not be used in the microwave oven, unless
specifically recommended for microwave use.
Containers with restricted openings, such as
•
bottles, should not be used for microwave
cooking.
Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a
•
dish to avoid steam burns.
•
Always remove the food to a suitable container.
Deep fat frying should not be done in the
•
microwave oven, because the fat temperature
cannot be controlled, hazardous situations can
result.
Popcorn may be prepared in the microwave oven,
•
but only in special packages or utensils designed
specifically for this purpose. This cooking
operation should never be un-attended.
Pierce foods with non-porous skins or
•
membranes to prevent steam build-up and
bursting. Apples, potatoes, chicken livers, and
egg yolks are examples of items that should be
pierced.
WARNING: When heating liquids, e.g. soups, 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:
1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
2. Do not overheat.
3. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the
oven and again halfway through the heating time.
4. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a
short time, stirring again before carefully removing
the container.
Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
•
containers – for example, closed glass jars – may
explode and should not be heated in this oven.
Occasionally, poached eggs may explode during
cooking. Always pierce the yolk, then cover and
allow the standing time of one minute before
removing cover.

GETTING STARTED
English
Unpacking
N.B. When you unpack the oven, check that the
product is free from damage. Damage or any missing
parts must be reported immediately to the retailer.
The oven, parts of the oven or the accessories may
be wrapped by a protection foil. If so, you must
remove this foil before using the oven. Do not leave
packing material so that small children can play with
it. This can be hazardous.
Installation
1. Remove any promotion label from the door.
2. Install the oven on a flat, level surface. The
surface must be strong enough to safely bear the
weight (15.5 kg) of the oven, and the contents. To
avoid the possibility of causing vibration or noise
the oven must be in a stable position.
3. Keep the oven away from heat and water.
Exposure to heat and water can lower oven
efficiency and lead to malfunctioning, so be sure
to install the oven away from heat and water
sources.
4. Do not block air vents on the top and the sides of
the cabinet and also do not place any articles on
the top of the oven. If air vents are blocked during
operation, the oven may overheat, and this may
lead to malfunctioning. Hot air escapes from the
vents, so be sure not to obstruct it or let curtains
come between the oven and the rear wall.
5. Place the oven as far away from radios and TV’s
as possible. This oven does conform to EEC
requirements* of radio interference suppression,
but some interference may occur if it is placed too
close to a radio or TV, so keep them as far apart
as possible.
6. If positioned in a corner, leave a gap of at least
5,0 cm from the walls to meet ventilation
demands.
Important! The oven can be placed almost anywhere
in the kitchen. Make sure the oven is placed on a flat,
level surface and that vents as well as the surface
underneath the oven are not blocked (for sufficient
ventilation).
* This appliance conforms to the requirements of
EEC Radio Interference Directive 87/308/EEC.
Connecting to the mains
The oven is delivered with the power cord and a plug
for 220-240V, 50Hz, earthed socket outlet. Earth
protection minimises the risks should a short-circuit
occur. Check to ensure the voltage of the oven
matches the supply.
N.B. If the oven is connected to the socket via an
extension cord, make sure the cord is earthed.
WARNING! This appliance must not be used on a
non-earth protected power supply.
Contact an electrician if you are uncertain regarding
electrical connection of the oven or provision of earth
protection of the supply.
This appliance must be earthed. If this appliance is
fitted with a non-rewireable plug for which your socket
is unsuitable, the plug should be cut off and the
appropriate plug fitted. If it is necessary to change the
fuse in a non-rewireable plug, the fuse cover must be
refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the plug
must not be used until a replacement is obtained.
Electrical connections
This appliance come fitted with a standard 2 pin
moulded Euro plug
WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.
The manufacturer declines any liability should
this safety measure not be observed.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not
•
suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off
and the appropriate plug fitted.
Remove the fuse from the cut off plug. The cut off
plug should then be disposed of to prevent the
hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a
socket in another part of your home.
