INSTALLATION

11..

Make sure that all the packing materials are removed from the inside of the door.

22.. WWAARRNNIINNGG::

Check the oven for any damage, such as misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals and
sealing surface, broken or loose door hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity or on the door. If there
is any damage, do not operate the oven and contact an

MMEEAA QQuuaalliiffiieedd SSeerrvviiccee AAggeenntt ((rreeffeerr ttoo ppaaggee 1122))..

33..

This microwave oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface to hold its weight and the heaviest food likely
to be cooked in the oven.

44..

Do not place the oven where heat, moisture or high humidity are generated, or near combustible materials.

55..

For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient airflow. In an open freestanding situation, allow 20mm
of space from any overhead obstruction and 10mm from a back wall and 5mm from any side walls. If
more than one side of the appliance is closed in, then installation is as per a "built-in" installation requiring
adequate venting. The specification requirements for "built-in" installations are detailed in the Blanco
Specification Book, and require the purchase of a trim kit and vented cabinetry design.

66..

Do not operate the oven without glass tray, roller support, and shaft in their proper positions.

77..

Make sure that the power supply cord is undamaged and does not run under the oven or over any hot or
sharp surface.

88..

The power socket must be readily accessible so that it can be easily unplugged in an emergency.

99..

Do not use the oven outdoors.

EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be earthed. The microwave oven is equipped with a cord which has an earth wire and an
earth plug. It must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and earthed. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only the oven, be provided. Using a high voltage is
dangerous and may result in a fire or other accident causing damage to the oven.

WWAARRNNIINNGG::

Improper use of the earthing plug can increase the risk of electric shock.

NNootteess:: 11..

If you have any questions about the earthing or electrical instructions, consult an

MMEEAA QQuuaalliiffiieedd

SSeerrvviiccee AAggeenntt ((rreeffeerr ttoo ppaaggee 1122))..

22..

Neither the manufacturer nor the distributor can accept any liability for damage to the oven or
personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

dd..

Do not use the oven cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven cavity when not in use.

77.. WWAARRNNIINNGG::

Liquid or other food must not be heated in sealed containers since they are likely to explode.

88..

Heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore please take care handling the container.

99..

Do not fry food in the oven. Hot oil can damage oven parts and utensils and may result in skin burns.

1100..

Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in the microwave oven since they may
explode even after microwave heating has ended.

1111..

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been
adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely.

112

2..

Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

1133..

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

1144..

Pierce foods with heavy skins such as potatoes, whole squash, apples and chestnuts before cooking.

1155..

The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken. The temperature should then be
checked before serving in order to avoid burns.

1166..

Cooking containers may become hot due to the heat transferred from the hot food. Potholders may be
needed to handle the container.

1177..

Containers should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the microwave oven.

CCoonnttaaiinneerr

TTeesstt::

Place the empty container in the oven, microwave at high power for 60 seconds. A container which

becomes very hot should not be used.

1188.. WWAARRNNIINNGG::

It is hazardous for anyone other than an MEA Qualified Service Agent to carry out any service or

repair operation involving the removal of any cover that gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

1199.. WWAARRNNIINNGG::

If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired

by an MEA Qualified Service Agent.

2200..

MICROWAVE COOKING PRINCIPLES

11..

Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

22..

Watch cooking time. Cook for the minimum amount of time indicated and increase cooking time if
necessary. Food which has been severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

33..

Cover foods while cooking to prevent spattering and to help foods cook evenly.

44..

Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed up cooking. Large items such as roasts must be turned
over at least once.

55..

Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking. Place those on the bottom of the dish at the
top and those in the centre of the dish to the outside.

MICROWAVE SAFE CONTAINERS

11..

The ideal material of a microwave container is transparent. This allows energy to pass through the container
and to heat the food.

22..

Microwave oven energy can not penetrate metal, so metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not
be used.

33..

Do not use recycled paper products eg. paper towels, when microwave cooking, as they may contain
small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.

44..

Round/oval dishes rather than square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in corners tends to overcook.

55..

Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Be careful not to use
too much foil and keep a distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and cavity.

The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct microwave safe products.
