The microwaves used for cooking are electro­magnetic waves. They are present naturally in
the environment in the form of radio waves, or
light or infrared rays.
Their frequency is in the 2,450 MHz range.
Their properties:

- They are reflected by metal.

- They travel through all other materials.

- They absorb water, fat and sugar
molecules.

When food is exposed to microwaves, the
molecules are shaken rapidly, generating heat.

The microwaves penetrate the food up to a
depth of around 2.5 cm. If food items are thicker,
they will be cooked through to the centre by
heat conduction, as in traditional cooking.
It is important to know that microwaves trigger a
simple thermal reaction within the food and that
they are not harmful.

The packaging for your appliance is made from
recyclable materials. Recycle them and help to
protect the environment by disposing of them in
the council receptacles provided for this
purpose.

Your appliance also contains various
recyclable materials. It is therefore
marked with this logo to inform you
that worn-out appliances should not
be disposed of with other waste.

Appliance recycling organised by
your manufacturer will thus be carried out in
optimum conditions, in accordance with
European directive 2002/96/EC on waste
electrical and electronic equipment. Please
contact your local council or your dealer for
information on the worn-out appliance
collection points nearest to your home. We
thank you for your help in protecting the
environment.

If the appliance is ever sold or transferred to
another person, ensure that the new owner
receives this user guide. Please read these
guidelines before installing and using your
appliance. They were written for your safety and
the safety of others.

ssaaffeettyy rreeccoommmmeennddaattiioonnss

Your appliance is designed for standard
household use for cooking, reheating and
defrosting foods. The manufacturer declines any
responsibility in the case of inappropriate use of
the appliance.
This appliance is not intended for use by
individuals (including children) with impaired
physical, sensorial or mental abilities, or persons
lacking in knowledge or experience, unless they
receive prior supervision or instructions on using
the appliance from a person responsible for their
safety.
Please make sure children do not play with the
appliance.
WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven
without supervision, if adequate instructions have
been given, so that the child is able to use the
oven safely and understands the dangers of
incorrect use.
WARNING: Liquids and other foods should not be
heated in sealed containers because they might
explode.
Use only utensils suitable for use in microwave
ovens.
When heating food items in plastic or paper
containers, keep an eye on the oven contents,
since there is a risk of ignition.
WARNING: If the door or door seal is damaged,
the oven should not be used until it has been
repaired by a qualified person.
WARNING: It is dangerous for anyone other than
a qualified person to perform maintenance or
repairs that require the removal of the cover
providing protection against exposure to
microwave energy.

WARNING: The accessible parts of the appliance
may become hot during use. Be careful not to
touch the heating elements inside the oven. It is
recommended that you keep young children at a
safe distance. If the appliance is being used in
combination mode, it is recommended that
children only use the oven under adult supervision
due to the temperatures involved.
If smoke appears, stop or unplug the oven and
leave the door closed to smother any flames that
might appear.
Heating eggs in their shells or whole hardboiled
eggs in a microwave oven is not recommended, as
they may explode, even after cooking has ended.
Heating beverages in a microwave oven can
cause sudden and/or delayed splashing of boiling
liquid, so precautions must be taken when
handling containers.
The contents of baby bottles and baby food jars
should be shaken or stirred and their temperature
checked before consumption, to avoid burns.
Never heat a baby bottle with the teat on (risk of
explosion). The use of metal cookware, forks,
spoons, knives or metal staples or fasteners on
defrosting bags is not recommended.
Always use oven mitts to remove dishes from the
oven. Some dishes absorb the heat from foods and
can therefore become very hot.
If cooking small quantities of food (a sausage,
croissant, etc.), place a glass of water next to the
food.
Excessive cooking times may dry out foods and
burn them. To prevent this happening, never use
the same times as recommended for cooking in a
traditional oven. To avoid damaging your
appliance, never operate it while empty or without
the turntable. Do not leave any accessories in your
oven when it is switched off.

If possible, cook roasts without barding fat to prevent smoke and fat splashes. You will get
the best results with roasts that are not too thick.
Take the meat out of the refrigerator and leave it at room temperature for 1 hour before
putting it in the oven. Place the dish on the shelf at level 2.
After cooking, wrap the roast in aluminium foil and leave it to rest for 10 minutes. This will
help relax the meat fibres and the roast will be more succulent.

Defrosting frozen vegetables in your microwave oven saves you a great deal of time. To defrost food,
use the AUTOMATIC DEFROST function or the MICROWAVE function with the power set to 200W.

Tips:
Small pieces of meat or fish can be cooked straight after defrosting. Larger pieces such as meat
joints or whole fish will still be slightly frozen after the defrost programme.
We recommend that you let the food stand for a period of time at least equal to the defrosting time
to ensure an even temperature.

Food covered with ice crystals will take longer to defrost. In this case, you should increase the
defrosting time.

Recommendations:
The defrosting time depends on the type of oven. It also depends on the shape, size, starting
temperature and quality of the food.

In most cases, food must be removed from its packaging. Remember to remove any metal staples
from the packaging.

Halfway through defrosting, the pieces of food should be turned over, stirred and separated if they
were frozen together.

If you are defrosting large pieces of meat or fish that prevent rotation of the turntable, use the
turntable stop function. In this case, turn the food regularly.

Defrost meat or fish by putting it on an upside-down saucer on top of a plate to let the juices run. If
they stay in contact with the food, they will overheat.
Never refreeze food before cooking it.

Defrost programme time:
The defrost programme time is calculated for food frozen at -18 °C. This gives you an indication of
the time needed for defrosting but the actual time may vary depending on the thickness, shape, size
and packaging of the food.

This function allows you to use the grill and microwave modes at the same time, making cooking
quicker. You can use either of the two grill levels with one of the microwave power levels up to 700W.

Use a microwave-proof, heat-resistant dish, preferably made of terracotta (less splashing than with
a glass dish).
Put the food on a dish and put it on the shelf at level 1. Turn the food half way through cooking.
If possible, cook roasts without barding fat to prevent smoke and fat splashes.
After cooking, season the joint, wrap it in aluminium foil and leave it for 10 minutes. This will help relax
the meat fibres and the roast will be more succulent.
