injury to persons or exposure to excessive microwave 
energy:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific "PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID 
POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE 
ENERGY", found on page 1.
3. This appliance must be earthed. Connect only to a 
properly installation instructions.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the 
provided installation instructions.
5. Some products such as whole eggs and sealed 
containers-for example, closed glass jars-may explode 
and should not be heated in this oven.

15. When cleaning surfaces of door and oven that come 
together on closing the door, use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or detergents applied with a sponge or 
soft cloth.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity: 
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance if 
paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are 
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
(b) Remove wire twist-ties from bags before placing bag 
in oven.
(c) If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven 
door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the power 
cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker 
panel.
17. Do not use this appliance to heat corrosive chemicals 
(for example, sulfides and chlorides). Vapors from such 
corrosive chemicals may interact with the contact and 
springs of the safety interlock switches thereby 
rendering them inoperable.
18. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars must be 
stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked 
before consumption to avoid burns.
19. Should the microwave oven emit smoke in quantity to 
indicate a fire keep the oven door shut, switch the 
appliance off and disconnect the mains lead from the 
outlet.
20. When flammable food containers are used in the oven 
(eg packet popcorn) be sure to check the cooking 
process periodically in case fire has occured.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
General Use
Listed below are, as with all appliances, certain rules to 
follow and safeguards to assure top performance from 
this oven:
1. Do not use the oven for any reason other than food 
preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any 
other nonfood items or for sterilizing purposes. 
They may catch on fire.
2. Do not use the oven when empty, this could damage the 
oven. 
3. Do not use the oven cavity for any type of storage, such 
as papers, cookbook, cookware, etc.
4. Do not operate the oven without the turntable tray in 
place. 
Be sure it is properly sitting on the roller guide.
5. Be caution when removing the turntable tray after 
cooking meats that may have caused an accumulation of 
grease in the tray.
6. Unlike microwave-only ovens, all microwave ovens may 
become hot on the cabinet and oven door. 
Always use hot pads or oven mitts when placing or 
removing food and/or accessories from the oven. 
Be cautions about touching parts other then control panel 
during or immediately following grill or combi cooking.
7. If the oven is hot from COMBI cooking, do not use plastic 
or styrofoam cookware for microwave cooking.
They may melt.
8. Do not use recycled paper products for cooking. 
They may contain impurities which could cause sparks
and/or fires when use during cooking.
9. Do not continue to cook with metal utensils if sparking 
appears. See "Accessories" section on page 6 for proper 
use of cookware.
10. Do not leave the oven unattended during short cooking 
times. Overcooking and fire may result.
11. Do not cook eggs in the shell, as they will explode. 
Occasionally a poached egg may burst during 
microwave cooking. Be sure to cook covered, and let 
stand one minute after cooking before removing the 
cover.
12. Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such 
as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc., without first 
piercing then several times with a fork.
13. Do not cook popcorn except in a microwave approved 
popcorn bag or in commercial package recommended 
especially for microwave ovens. 
Never try to popcorn in a paper bag. If oil is used while 
making popcorn, overcooking may cause smoke and, 
eventually, fire.
14. Do not attempt to operate this appliance with the door 
open.
15. Do not attempt to remove covers, panel, etc.
16. Look at the oven from time to time when food is heated 
or cooked in disposable containers of plastic, paper or 
other combustible materials.
Microwave function only
Utensils and cooking containers used in a microwave oven 
should be of a material that does not act as a barrier to 
microwave energy. Generally this means that you should cook in 
either (paper), plastic, glass or ceramic. Metal pans reflect 
microwave energy and inhibit cooking, and should not be used. 
In addition to material, the shape of the container should also be 
considered. Round oval shapes give the most even cooking. 
Square or rectangular containers may over-cook foods in the 
corners because more energy is absorbed there. 
Shallow containers give more even cooking results.
Utensils made of china and ceramic excellent to use in your 
microwave oven. Most types of glass are also very good. 
Lead crystal glass can crack and should therefore, not be used. 
Plastics and paper can also be used, provided they can 
withstand the temperature of the heated food. For cooking only 
use plastics, which will withstand a temperature of over 120˚C, 
Eg. polypropene and polyamide. Some plastic materials, Eg. 
melamine, will be heated by the microwave, and be damaged. To 
find out if a certain container is suitable, the following simple test 
can be made:
Place the empty container and glass of water inside the 
microwave oven. The water is needed because the oven must 
not be operated empty or with empty containers only. 
Let the oven work on full power for one minute. A suitable 
container will only be lukewarm. 
Metal containers, Eg. saucepans or frying pans should not be 
used in microwave ovens. Nor should plates or vessels with 
decorations be used since metal Eg. gold, might be part of the 
decoration and such decorations will be damaged. 
Small pieces of aluminiuum foil can be 
used, but only to shield the areas that 
would over-cook (Eg. for covering chicken 
wings, leg tips and fish tails) but the foil 
must not touch the side of the oven as 
damage may occur.
TO AVOID EXPLOSION AND SUDDEN BOILIING
1. Eggs 
Never cook eggs in their shells. Steam will build up inside 
the shell during cooking and the egg will explode. 
If you want to cook or reheat eggs which have not been 
broken up by scrambling or mixing, you must always 
pierce the yolks or these will also explode. You should 
slice shelled hard boiled eggs before you reheat them in 
your microwave oven.
2. Piercing 
Always pierce food which has a skin or membrane, for 
example, potatoes, tomatoes, apples, sausages etc. if you 
don't pierce them, steam will build up inside and they may 
explode.
3. Lids 
Always remove the lids of jars and containers and take 
away food containers, before you cook using your 
microwave oven. If you don't, then steam and pressure 
might build up inside and cause an explosion even after 
the microwave cooking has stopped.
WHICH UTENSIL CAN BE USED IN THE OVEN?
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 not liquid. 
To prevent this possibility the following steps should be 
taken:
a. Avoid using straight sided containers with narrow
necks. 
b. Do not over heat. 
c. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven
and again halfway through the heating time. 
d. After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a short
time, stir or shake them again carefully and check the
temperature of them before consumption to avoid
burns (especially, contents of feeding bottles and
baby food jars).

1. Without metal parts or metal trims.
2. Some plastics are heat-proof only to certain temperatures. 
Check carefully!
3. It is possible to use aluminium foil to shield deliate areas of food 
(this prevents over-cooking).
4. Metal tins can be used in the combination methods, however if these are very 
deep, they will greatly reduce the efficiency, as metal shields the microwave 
energy from the food.
Caution:
• There are a number of accessories available on the 
market. Before you buy, make sure they are suitable 
for microwave use.
• When you put food in the microwave oven, make sure that 
food, food supports or covering do not come in direct contact 
with any of the internal walls or the ceiling of the cavity 
since discolouration may take place.
Before use, the user should check that tensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens.
