Safety Instructions
Warning! Do not heat pure alcohol or
alcoholic drinks in the microwave. FIRE
RISK!
Beware!
To avoid food overheating or burning it is
very important not to select long time periods
or power levels that are too high when
heating small quantities of food. For example,
a bread roll can burn after 3 minutes if the
power selected is too high.
For toasting, use just the grilling function and
watch the oven all the time. It you use a
combined function to toast bread it will catch
fire in a very short time.
Make sure you never catch the power cables
of other electrical appliances in the hot door
or the oven. The cable insulation may melt.
Danger of short-circuiting!
Take care when heating liquids!
When liquids (water, coffee, tea, milk, etc.)
are nearly at boiling point inside the oven and
are taken out suddenly, they may spurt out of
their containers.
DANGER OF INJURIES AND BURNS!
To avoid that type of situation when heating
liquids, put a teaspoon or glass rod inside the
container.
Avoid damaging the oven or other
dangerous situations by following these
instructions:
Do not switch on the oven without the
turntable support, the turntable ring and the
respective plate being in place.
Never switch on the microwave when it is
empty. If there is no food inside there may be
an electrical overcharge and the oven could
be damaged.
RISK OF DAMAGE!
For carrying out oven programming tests put
a glass of water inside the oven. The water
will absorb the microwaves and the oven will
not be damaged.
Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation
openings.
Use only dishes suitable for microwaves.
Before using dishes and containers in the
microwave, check that these are suitable
(see the section on types of dishes).
Never remove the mica cover on the ceiling
of the oven interior! This cover stops fat and
pieces of food damaging the microwave
generator.
Do not keep any inflammable object inside
the oven as it may burn if the oven is
switched on.
Do not use the oven as a pantry.
Do not use the oven for frying as it is
impossible to control the temperature of oil
heated by microwaves.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door.
This may damage the oven, especially in the
hinge zone. The door can bear a maximum
weight of 8 kg.
The turntable and the grills can bear a
maximum load of 8 kg. To avoid damaging
the oven, do not exceed this load.

The advantages of microwaves
In conventional ovens, heat radiated by electrical
elements or gas burners slowly penetrates the
food from outside to inside. On account of this
there is a major amount of energy is wasted
heating the air, the oven components and the food
containers.
In a microwave oven, heat is generated by the
food itself and the heat travels from inside to
outside. No heat is lost to the air, the walls of the
oven cavity or the dishes and containers (if these
are suitable for use in microwave oven), in other
words, only the food is heated.
Microwave ovens have the following advantages:
1. Shorter cooking times; in general these are
up to 3/4 less than the time required for
conventional cooking.
2. Ultra-fast food defrosting, thus reducing the
danger of bacterial development.
3. Energy savings.
4. Conservation of the nutritional value of foods
due to the shorter cooking times.
5. Easy to clean.
Why food heats up
Most foods contain water and water molecules
vibrate when subjected to microwaves.
The friction between molecules produces heat
which raises the temperature of the food, defreezing it, cooking it or keeping it hot.
Since the heat arises inside the food:
This can be cooked with little or no liquid or
fats/oils;
De-freezing, heating or cooking in a
microwave oven is quicker than in a
conventional oven;
The vitamins, minerals and nutritional
substances in the food are conserved;
The natural colour and aroma of the food are
unchanged.
Microwaves pass through china, glass, cardboard
or plastic but do not go through metal. For this
reason, metal containers or ones with metal parts
must not be used in a microwave oven.
Microwaves are reflected by metal...
How a microwave oven works
In a microwave oven there is a high tension valve
called a magnetron which converts electrical
energy into microwave energy. These
electromagnetic waves are channelled to the
interior of the oven through a wave guide and
distributed by a metallic spreader or through a
turntable.
Inside the oven the microwaves propagate in all
directions and are reflected by the metal walls,
uniformly penetrating the food.
... but go through glass and china...
... and are absorbed by foods.

Using the Browning 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 browning plate. As a high temperature is
reached quickly on the bottom of the browning
plate, the crust turns crisp and brown.
How to cook with the browning plate:
1. Preheat the browning plate by selecting
the Microwave and Grill function for 3 to 5
minutes with a 600 W microwaves power
level.
The browning plate can also be used for bacon,
eggs, sausages, etc.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
Use oven gloves at all times as the browning
plate will become very hot.
Never place the browning plate in the oven
without the glass plate.
Do not place any recipients on the browning
plate that are not heat-resistant (plastic bowls
for example).
2. Brush the browning plate with oil in order
to brown the food nicely.
3. Place the fresh or frozen food directly on
the browning plate.
4. Place the browning plate on the glass
turntable in the microwave oven.
5. Select the Microwaves and Grill function
and the cooking time as described below.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
As the browning 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.
Cleaning:
The best way to clean the browning plate is to
wash it with hot water and detergent and rinse off
with clean water. Do not use a scrubbing brush or
a hard sponge otherwise the top layer will be
damaged.

Interrupting a cooking cycle
You can stop the cooking process at any time by
pressing the Stop key once or by opening the
oven door.
In both cases:
Microwave emission is stopped immediately.
The grill is de-activated but is still very hot.
Danger of burning!
The timer stops and the display shows the
remaining amount of operating time.
If you wish, at this time you can:
1. Turn or stir the food to ensure it will be
evenly cooked.
2. Change the process parameters.
3. Cancel the process by pressing the Stop
key.
To restart the process, close the door and press
the Start key
Cancelling a cooking cycle
If you wish to cancel the cooking process, press
the Stop key for 3 seconds.
You will then hear a beep and the time will appear
on the display.
End of a cooking cycle
At the end of the process you will hear three
beeps and the display will show the word “End”.
The beeps are repeated every 30 seconds until
the door is opened or the Stop key is pressed.
Altering parameters
The operating parameters (time, weight, power,
etc.) can only be altered when the cooking
process has been interrupted by proceeding as
follows:
1. To alter the time, press key “-” and “+”. The
new time defined is immediately valid.
2. To alter the power, press the Power
Selection key. The display and respective
light start to flash. Alter the parameter by
pressing the “-” and “+” keys and confirm by
pressing the Power Selection key again.

Defrosting
The table below shows different defrosting and
standing times (in order to ensure the food
temperature is evenly distributed) for different types
and weights of food, plus recommendations.

Defrosting
General instructions for defrosting
1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are
appropriate for microwaves (china, glass,
suitable plastic).
2. The defrost function by weight and the tables
refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the quantity
and thickness of the food. When freezing
food keep the defrosting process in mind.
Distribute the food evenly in the container.
4. Distribute the food as best as possible inside
the oven. The thickest parts of fish or
chicken drumsticks should be turned towards
the outside. You can protect the most
delicate parts of food with pieces of
aluminium foil. Important: The aluminium
foil must not come into contact with the oven
cavity interior as this can cause electrical
arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be turned
several times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as
possible since narrow and thin portions
defrost more quickly than the thicker and
broader parts.
8. Place poultry on an upturned plate so that the
meat juices can run off more easily.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that
it does not become too dry.
10. Turn the food at regular intervals.
11. Remove frozen food from its wrapping and do
not forget to take off any metal twist-tags. For
containers that are used to keep frozen food
in the freezer and which can also be used for
heating and cooking, all you need to do is
take off the lid. For all other cases you should
put the food into containers that are suitable
for microwave use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting, principally
that from poultry, should be discarded. In no
event should such liquids be allowed to come
into contact with other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting
function you need to allow for standing time
until the food is completely defrosted.
7. Fat-rich foods such as butter, cream cheese
and cream should not be completely
defrosted. If they are kept at room
temperature they will be ready to be served
in a few minutes. With ultra-frozen cream, if
you find small pieces of ice in it, you should
mix these in before serving.
