out objects. Caution! This could cause a fire!
• Never use the device when empty, i.e. without items to be
cooked inside.
• Only use the accessories that are enclosed or described as
suitable in these instructions.
• Never use dishes with metal trimmings, metal utensils or the grill
stand in microwave operation as this could damage the device
and/or the dishes.
• Use only microwave-suitable dishes. Look for markings such as
"Microwave-suitable" or "For the microwave" when purchasing.
• Do not remove any of the microwave's internal panels or
the inner coating of the viewing window as this could lead to
microwave radiation leakage.
• Never leave the device unattended during operation.
• WARNING! Delayed boiling! When heating liquids in the
microwave so-called "delayed boiling" can occur, i.e. the liquid
has reached boiling temperature without beginning to bubble as
boiling liquids normally do.
Agitation, for instance when removing the liquid from the device,
can lead to a sudden boiling up of the liquid. Therefore, take care
when moving the liquid container.
There is a risk of scalding!
Always place a glass or ceramic rod in liquids that are to be
heated up. This will hinder sudden, belated boiling of the liquid.
• With foods that have a firm skin, e.g. sausages or tomatoes, make
small slits in the skin so that they do not burst during cooking.

6 About microwaves
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves which have a warming
effect on the food within the oven. Microwaves heat all non-metallic objects.
Therefore, do not place any metallic objects in the microwave. This heating effect
works better the higher the water content of the foodstuff.
To ensure optimal distribution of heat, let food stand for a minute or two in the
microwave after cooking.
The effect of microwaves on foodstuffs
• Microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a depth of up to 3cm.
• They heat up water, fat and sugar molecules (foodstuffs with a higher water
content are heated more intensively).
• This heat then works its way – slowly – throughout the food and has a
defrosting, heating and cooking effect on the food.
• The cooking area and the air within are not heated (the food container is
heated mainly by the hot food).
• Each foodstuff requires a certain amount of energy to cook or defrost. As a
rule of thumb we can say: high output – short time or low output – long time.
The microwave oven
• A microwave generator, the so-called magnetron, generates the microwaves
and directs them into the cooking area.
• The inner walls and the viewing window reflect the microwaves inwards so
that they cannot escape from the interior.
• The microwave output and the cooking time can be set in several steps.
• After the cooking time has elapsed, or when the door is opened, the
magnetron turns off immediately.

7 Cooking and heating up in the microwave
General notes
• To arrange food so that it cooks properly place the food with the largest
pieces towards the outer edge.
• Note the exact cooking or heating times.
• Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it if
necessary.
WARNING!
Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fire.
• Cover food during cooking or heating with a cover that is suitable for the
microwave. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore the food is
more evenly cooked.
• Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once during
cooking to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such as joints or roasting chickens
must be turned at least once.
• It is also important to reposition food, e.g. with meatballs: After half of the
cooking time has expired, the food should be repositioned from top to
bottom and from the middle to the outside.
• After heating, stir the food if possible to ensure even temperatures, otherwise
let the food stand for a short time.
Microwave-suitable materials
You can buy special dishes and accessories for your microwave. Look for
markings such as "Microwave-suitable" or "For the microwave". You can also use
your existing dishes – if the material is suitable.
Helpline No. UK/ Northern Ireland 0871 37 61 020 (calls are charged at 7p/min from
a standard landline; calls from mobiles could be higher) Rep. Ireland 1-800-992 508
Web Support www.medion.co.uk
12
Suitable materials
• Porcelain, glass ceramic and heatproof glass.
• Plastics which are heatproof and microwave-suitable (caution: plastics may
become discoloured by foods or become warped by the heat).
• Baking paper.
Materials that are partially suitable
• Stoneware and ceramics. Use clay containers only for defrosting and for short
cooking times because the air and water content of the material could cause
the clay to crack or break.
• Dishes with gold or silver décor should only be used when the manufacturer
has labelled it "microwave-suitable".
• Never use aluminium foil in large quantities. It can however be used e.g.
in small pieces to cover sensitive parts. You can also cover the corners of
containers to prevent overcooking as the microwave energy is primarily
concentrated on the corners. Maintain a distance of 2.5 cm between the foil
and the internal wall.
• Aluminium containers (e.g. those for ready-to-serve meals) are suitable, but
they must be at least 3cm high to be used in the microwave.
Unsuitable materials
• Metal, i.e. metal pots, pans and lids.
CAUTION!
Metal in the cooking area can lead to sparks! These can
damage the device or the viewing window!
Dishes with metal parts (handles, decoration or bottoms) or with gold or
•
silver décor can also lead to sparks during microwave operation.
• Crystal or lead crystal can shatter, coloured glass may become discoloured.
• Any materials which are not heatproof can lose shape or even burn.

Please note!
To test whether a dish is suitable for use in the microwave, put
some water in the container and place it in the microwave.
Turn the time control knob to position 1. The device will now
operate in microwave operation for 1 minute. If you ascertain
that the container is hotter than the food, then it is not
suitable for the microwave. Microwave-suitable dishes are only
warmed by the heat of the food
Warning!
As soon as you notice sparks, flashes or even fire, then turn off
the microwave immediately using the button.
Overview of suitable materials
The following list is a general guide to help you choose the correct cooking
dishes:
Cooking dishes Microwave
Heatproof glass Yes
Non-heatproof glass No
Heatproof ceramic Yes
Microwave-suitable plastic dishes Yes
Kitchen paper Yes
Metal No
Aluminium foil/containers Suitable in some circumstances
Size and shape of microwave-suitable containers
Flat, broad containers are better than narrow, tall ones. "Flat" foods can be
cooked more evenly.
Round or oval containers are better than angular ones. There is a danger of local
overheating in the corners.

9 Cleaning and care
Damage can be caused to the device surfaces due to a lack of care. This can lead
to the lifespan of the device being reduced or to dangerous situations. Therefore,
clean the microwave oven regularly and remove all food residues.
• Before starting the cleaning process, switch off the microwave and remove the
mains plug.
• Keep the interior of the device clean. Wipe away splashes or spilled liquids
that come into contact with the interior walls with a damp cloth. A mild
cleaning solution can be used for stubborn dirt. Do not use sprays or other
corrosive cleaning products. These products can attack, scratch or dull the
door surface.
• The external surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. In order to avoid
functional parts inside the microwave being damaged, ensure that no water
penetrates into the device through the ventilation openings.
• A mild cleaning solution should be used for cleaning the door parts, the
viewing window and, particularly, the closing mechanism including the seals.
Proceed here with extreme caution so that the parts do not become damaged.
• The operating field may not become wet. Clean it using a soft, damp cloth.
Leave the door open when cleaning the operating field to avoid accidentally
switching on the device.
• If mist should form on the interior or exterior surfaces of the device then
wipe it away with a soft cloth.
• Mist can form if the microwave is operated during periods of high humidity.
This is completely normal.
• Sometimes the rotary plate needs to be removed from the device to clean it.

Rinse the plate in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.
• Then dry the rotary plate thoroughly with a soft cloth. If you remove the
rotary plate from the rotary hub then ensure that it has been replaced
correctly after cleaning.
• The rotary hub and the base of the microwave should be cleaned regularly to
prevent loud noises from occurring.
• Simply wipe the base of the device with a mild cleaning solution. The rotary
hub can be cleaned in mild soapy water or in a dishwasher. Any remaining
aromas in the microwave oven can be removed by placing a glass of water
together with the juice and rind of a lemon in a deep container suitable for
microwave cooking and then heating it in the microwave for 5 minutes. Finally,
wipe the microwave thoroughly and dry it with a soft cloth.
• If you have to replace the light in the microwave oven, please contact a
qualified specialist workshop or the Medion Service Centre.
10 End of operation
After the end of the cooking process, the time will be displayed in the display
field. You can then open the door and remove the food. The device switches itself
off automatically when the cooking process is finished. Check that the interior
lighting for the microwave oven is switched on when the door is opened and then
automatically goes out after a while.
If you do not use the device for a long period of time, pull out the mains plug and
store the device in a dry location.
