1/ NOTICES TO THE USER
Important :
Keep this user guide with your appliance. If the appliance is ever sold or transferred to another person, ensure that the new
owner receives the user guide. Please
become familiar with these recommendations before installing and using your appliance. They were written for your safety and
the safety of others.
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.
This appliance is not intended to be used by per-
sons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental abilities, or persons lacking
experience or awareness, unless using it with
the help of a person responsible for their safety,
or under supervision and with prior instruction in
its use.
Ensure that the cookware is suitable for use
in a micro-wave oven.
To avoid damaging your appliance, never oper-
ate it while empty or without the turntable.
Do not interfere with the orifices on the
lock on the front of the appliance; this could
cause damage to your appliance that would
require a service call.
The seal and frame of the door must be reg-
ularly examined to ensure that they have not
deteriorated. If these areas are damaged, discontinue use of the applianceand have a specialised technician check it.
While heating food items in plastic or paper
containers, monitor the micro-wave’s contents for there is a risk of spontaneous combustion.
For the micro-wave and micro-wave + circular
heating functions, the use of metallic cookware, forks, spoons, knives or metal staples
or fasteners for frozen foods is not recommended.
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 nipple on
(risk of explosion).
Please make sure children do not play with
the appliance. Do not allow children to use
the micro-wave oven without supervision,
unless appropriate instructions have been
given so that the child can use the oven safely and understands the dangers of incorrect
operation.
Always use oven mitts to remove dishes from
the oven. Some dishes absorb the heat of
foods and, therefore, are very hot.
Liquids and other foods should not be heated
in sealed containers because they may
explode.
It is recommended that you avoid heating
eggs in their shells and whole hard-boiled
eggs in the micro-wave oven because they run
the risk of explosion, even after cooking is
complete.
Heating beverages in the micro-wave oven
can cause sudden and/or delayed splattering
of boiling liquid, so precautions must be
taken when handling their containers.
In the case of small quantities (a sausage, a
croissant, etc.) place a glass of water next to
the food. Excessive cooking times may dry
out foods and burn them. To avoid such incidents, never use the same times recommended for cooking in a traditional oven.
If smoke appears, stop or unplug the oven
and leave the door closed to smother any
flames that may appear.

1/ NOTICES TO THE USER
The micro-waves used for cooking are electro-magnetic waves. They are commonly
found in our environment in the form of radioelectric waves, light or infrared rays.
Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz range.
Their behaviour:
• They are reflected by metals.
• They travel through all other materials.
• They are absorbed by water, fat and
sugar molecules.
When food is exposed to micro-waves, its
molecules begin moving rapidly, which causes heating.
The penetration depth of waves into the food
is approximately 2.5 cm; if the food is thicker,
the core of the food will be cooked by conduction, as in traditional cooking.
It is valuable to note that the micro-waves
trigger within the food a simple thermal phenomenon and that they are not harmful to
one’s health.
This appliance’s packing materials are recyclable. Recycle them and play a role in protecting the environment by depositing them in
municipal containers provided for this purpose.
Your appliance also contains various recyclable materials. It is therefore marked with this logo to indicate that used appliances must not
be mixed with other waste.
Recycling of the appliances organised by
your manufacturer will thus be undertaken in
optimum conditions, in accordance with
European directive EC/2002/96 relating to
electrical and electronic equipment waste.
Consult your city hall or your retailer to find
the drop-off points for used appliances that is
nearest to your home. We thank you for your
help in protecting the environment.

2 / INSTALLING YOUR APPLIANCE
Warning:
Ensure that your appliance has not suffered any damage during transport
(deformed seal or door, etc...). If you see
any kind of damage, before doing anything
else, contact your retailer.
In order to easily locate the reference information for your appliance, we recommend
that you note these data on the “After-Sales
Service Department and Customer
Relations” page.
Ensure that:
- The electrical installation has sufficient voltage.
- The electrical wires are in good condition.
- The diameter of the wires complies with the
installation requirements.
- Your electrical installation is equipped with
16-ampere thermal-sensitive protection.
In case of doubt, consult your electricianinstaller.
The electrical connections are made before
the appliance is installed in its housing.
Electrical safety must be provided by a correct build-in. During installation and maintenance operations, the appliance must be
unplugged from the electrical grid; fuses
must be cut off or removed.
The oven must be connected with a power
cable (standardized) with three 1.5 mm² conductors (1 ph +1 N + ground) that must be
connected to a monophase 220-240 V network via a CEI 60083 standardised receptacle
(1 ph +1 N + ground lead) or in accordance
with installation rules. The safety wire (greenyellow) is connected to the appliance’s
ground terminal.
In the case of connections with an electric
receptacle, it must remain accessible after
installation of the appliance.
The oven’s neutral conductor (blue wire)
must be connected to the network’s neutral
conductor.
In your electrical installation, allow for a useraccessible device that must be able to separate the appliance from the main power supply and whose contact opening is at least
3 mm above all the terminals.
If the power cable is damaged, it should be
replaced by the manufacturer, its after-sales
service department or by a qualified person
to avoid danger.
Warning:
We cannot be held responsible for any
accident resulting from an non-existant,
defective or incorrect ground lead.

Using your micro-wave oven to defrost frozen food saves you a lot of time.
To defrost food, use the Speed defrost function of the MO +/- function, set to power level
200 W (defrost).
Note:
Small cuts of meat and fish can be cooked immediately after defrosting. Larger cuts such as
meat roasts or whole fish will still be slightly frozen at the end of the defrost programme.
We recommend that you let them sit for at least as long as the time they spent in the defrosting
programme so that they reach an even temperature.
Foods covered with ice crystals will take longer to defrost. In this case, you can increase the
defrost time.
Recommendations:
The defrost time depends on the appliance type. It also depends on the shape, size, initial temperature and quality of the food.
In most cases, food should be removed from its packaging. Remember to remove the metal staples from packaging.
Halfway through the defrost time, the pieces should be turned over, mixed and separated if they
were frozen together.
If you defrost large pieces of meat or fish that prevent the rotation of the turntable, engage the
Stop Turntable function. If you do this, remember to stir food regularly.
Defrost the meat and fish by placing it on an upside-down saucer positioned on a plate; this
allows juices to flow out. If it stays in contact with the food, it will overheat.
Never refreeze food unless it has been cooked.
Length of defrost programmes:
The durations of defrost programmes were calculated based on food frozen at -18°C. This gives
you an indication of the required defrosting time, but the actual duration may vary based on the
thickness, shape, size and packaging of the food.
Choosing a programme :
Two automatic defrost programmes are available:
defrosting meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, ready-made dishes
defrosting bread and pastry
Choose the 200 W micro-wave function (defrosting power level) if you want to
defrost quantities that are not offered by the SPEED DEFROST programmes.
Enter the desired defrosting time. You can refer to the following table for suggested defrosting times.

Comments
:
Proceed in the same manner for breads and Danish pastries, choosing the specific speed
Defrost function
.
The defrost time is automatically calculated based on the weight of the food.
This may depend on the initial temperature of the food (the times are calculated for food frozen
at -18°C).
For foods weighing over 350 g (except for bread/pastry), a beep is sounded halfway through the
Speed Defrost programme to remind you that
it is time to turn over the food to achieve
better
results; the word
is displayed. Close the door after turning the food and press
START/STOP
to continue the defrosting programme.
With the speed defrost function, the defrost time cannot be modified.
To achieve even results, the

function cannot be used with the Speed Defrost
function.
As for foods that do not appear in the food category recommendations, use the 200 W MO +/- func-
tion. Refer to the comments below to find the RECOMMENDED PROGRAMME TIMES.

This function enables you to cook and brown foods such as au gratin dishes and meats.
It can be used before or after cooking, depending on the recipe.
Please note
:
The accessible areas of the oven can become hot when the grill is used. It is advisable
to keep small children at bay.
If the appliance is being used in combined mode, it is recommended that children only use
the oven under adult supervision because of the temperatures generated.
When using the grill, you must protect your hands when removing dishes and use cookware
that resists high temperatures, such as Pyrex glass or ceramic.
There are two grill settings: Medium grill and High grill.
As a general rule, it is recommended that you use the highGRILL setting to grill meats and fish
and the medium grill setting in the MO + medium grill mode to gratinate or brown more delicate
food. Insert the accessories (grid or drip tray) at level 1, 2 or 3, based on the height of the cookware or the food.
