Safety and warnings
Important safety instructions
■
Your appliance is solely intended for domestic
use for cooking, reheating and defrosting food.
The manufacturer does not accept any liability
in the event of inappropriate use.
■
To avoid damaging your appliance, never
operate it while empty or without the turntable.
■
Do not interfere with the openings on the lock
on the front of the appliance; this could cause
damage to your appliance that would require a
service callout.
■
The seal and frame of the door must be regularly
examined to ensure that they have not become
damaged. If damaged the oven should not be
used until repaired by an authorised person.
■
In microwave mode, it is not recommended to
use metallic cookware, forks, spoons, knives or
metal staples or fasteners for defrosting bags.
■
Never heat a baby bottle with the teat on, as it
may explode.
■
Always use oven gloves to remove dishes from
the oven. Some dishes absorb the heat from
food and are therefore very hot.
Safety and warnings
Header
Important safety instructions
■
When heating small quantities (a sausage, a
croissant, etc.) place a glass of water next to the
food.
■
Excessive cooking times may dry out food and
burn it. To prevent this occurring, never use
the same times recommended for cooking in a
conventional oven.
■
Do not use abrasive cleaning materials or hard
metal scrapers on the glass oven door, as this
could scratch the surface and cause the glass to
shatter.

Installation instructions
Important!
The accessible parts of the appliance may become hot during use. Be careful not to touch the
heating elements located inside the oven.
It is advisable to keep small children away from the appliance.
Important!
If the appliance is being used in combination mode, it is recommended that children only use the
oven under adult supervision due to the temperatures generated.
Protecting the environment
This appliance’s packaging materials are recyclable. Please recycle them and help protect the
environment by depositing them in municipal containers provided for this purpose.
Europe only:
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. The appliance recycling organised by your manufacturer will therefore be
conducted in optimum conditions, in accordance with European directive 2002/96/
EC on electrical and electronic equipment waste. Consult your local authority or
your retailer to locate your nearest used appliance drop-off points. Thank you for
your help in protecting the environment.
How your oven works
The microwaves used for cooking are electromagnetic waves. They are commonly found in our
environment in the form of radio waves, light and 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 microwaves its molecules
begin moving rapidly, causing it to heat up.
The penetration depth of waves into the food is
approximately 2.5 cm; if the food is thicker, the centre
of the food will be cooked by conduction, as in
conventional cooking.
Note that microwaves cause a simple thermal
phenomenon within food and are not harmful to
health.

Installation alignment
The diagrams below explain how to achieve the correct and proper alignment of visual elements
of the product should it be necessary. This also allows you to align visual elements across
products if this product is installed alongside other companian products.
Inspect the product to check if the gaps are correct
■
There should be a minimum 5 mm gap at the base of the product (ie from the bottom of the
door glass to the shelf). The product can be raised or lowered to achieve this gap by adjusting
the two small feet at the front of the product with a 7 mm spanner.

■
There should be a 5 mm gap between the top of the door glass and the bottom of the control
panel. The control panel can be raised or lowered to achieve this gap by first loosening the two
screws on either side of the product with a tamper proof torx 20 Screwdriver. Once the control
panel is adjusted to suit, ensure the screws are fully tightened again and the panel does not
move. This adjustment also allows you to visually align the product incase the cabinetry is not
square.
Important!
If adjusting the product height or the control panel (or both), ensure the overall product height
still allows the product to be installed into the preconfined cabinetry space.
Do not lower the control panel so much that it touches or interferes with the door.

Defrosting
Using your microwave oven to defrost frozen vegetables lets you save a lot of time. To defrost
food, use the DEFROST function, set to a power level of 200W.
Note: small cuts of meat or fish can be cooked immediately after defrosting. Larger cuts, such as
meat joints 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 a time as they spent in the defrost
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 type of appliance. 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 any metal
staples from packaging.
Halfway through the defrost time, the pieces should be turned over, stirred and then separated if
they were frozen together.
If you defrost large pieces of meat or fish that prevent the rotation of the turntable, use the Stop
Turntable function. If that case, remember to stir food regularly.
Defrost meat and fish by placing it on an upside-down saucer placed on top of a plate. This will
allow juices to flow out. If they remain in contact with the food, it will overheat.
Never refreeze food, unless it has been cooked.
Length of defrost programmes:
The times for defrosting programmes are based on food frozen at -18°C. This gives you an
indication of the required defrosting time, but the actual time can vary, depending on the
thickness, shape, size and packaging of the food.
Choosing a programme:
The following automatic defrosting programmes are available:
d 1 corresponds to 200W (defrosting power level). Choose d1 if you want to defrost food or
quantities not covered by programmes d2, d3 or d4.
Programme the desired defrosting time.
Please refer to the following table for suggested defrosting times.
d 2 defrosting meat, poultry, fish and vegetables.
d 3 defrosting bread
d 4 defrosting cooked dishes

The required time is calculated automatically. The
programme duration appears in the display and the defrost
programme starts.
Note:
The defrost time is automatically calculated based on the weight of the food. It may vary,
depending on the initial temperature of the food (times are based on frozen food at -18°C).
For food weighing more than 350 g (except bread), a beep sounds mid way through the
automatic defrosting programme, to remind you that it is time to turn the food over, to obtain
the best results and “turn” is shown in the display. After turning the food over, close the door and
press the button to continue the defrost programme.
With the automatic defrost function, the defrost time cannot be modified.
For foods that do not appear in the food category recommendations, use the 200W MICROWAVE
function or d1. Refer to the notes below for the recommended programme times.

When using the grill, you must protect your hands when removing dishes and use heat-resistant
cookware, such as Pyrex or ceramic.
There are two grill functions: Medium and high and three levels for each function: -1- 2- 3-.
As a general rule, it is recommended that you use level -3- to grill meats and fish and the levels
-1- and -2- with the GRILL FUNCTION (medium or high) plus MICROWAVE mode to brown or crisp
more delicate food.
Insert the rack based on the height of the cookware or the food.

Note: the cooking time may be adjusted at any time simply by pressing and the + and

You can preheat your microwave oven for a heat circulation cooking programme just as you
would a traditional oven.
Recommendations:
The cooking temperature can be adjusted in increments of 10°C, from 50°C to 250°C.
The cooking time ranges from 0 to 599 minutes (9 h 59 min) . It is preferable to enter a minimum
time and then to add time if necessary; keep an eye on the colour of the food.
Always insert the accessories (rack or glass tray) at level 1 or 2. This will ensure better heat
distribution and optimum cooking results.
Use cookware designed to withstand high temperatures.
Protect your hands when you remove the dish because it may be very hot.
If you want to defrost food after using the heat circulation function, we recommend that you let
your oven cool down for 10 minutes first; this will give you better results.
Cooking on two levels:
To cook two apples tarts at the same time, 1 hour at 200°C. We recommend preparing the first
tart in the glass drip tray inserted at level 1 and the second in a tart dish on the shelf inserted at
level 3. Change the position of the two dishes half-way through cooking.

Care and cleaning
It is recommended that you regularly clean your oven and remove any food debris on the inside
and outside of the appliance.
Use a damp, soapy sponge. If the appliance is not cleaned regularly, its surface could become
damaged, permanently affecting the appliance’s lifespan and possibly causing a safety hazard.
35
Important!
If the door or door hinge are damaged, the oven should not be used until it has been repaired by
an authorised person.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
The use of abrasive products, alcohol or thinner is not recommended, as they may damage the
appliance.
In case of odour or encrusted dirt, boil water with lemon juice and vinegar in a cup for two
minutes and clean the insides with a small amount of washing-up liquid.
The turntable can be removed to facilitate cleaning. To do so, lift it using the access areas
provided. If you remove the turning gear, do not let water enter the the motor shaft hole.
Remember to replace the turning gear, wheel guide and turntable.

Troubleshooting
Query What to do
The time counts down but the appliance is
not working (the turntable is not rotating and
food is not heating). “Time” and “Demo” flash
alternately in the display.
The appliance does not start.
The appliance continues to make noise after
cooking has ended.
The appliance is noisy.
The turntable does not rotate properly.
You notice steam on the window. Wipe the condensation off using a cloth.
Food is not heated during a microwave
programme.
The grill gives off smoke at the beginning of a
programme.
The appliance produces sparks.
Your appliance is in DEMONSTRATION mode. Set
the time to “00:00”. Enter by pressing
, press then press and hold the + and -
buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds.
Check that your appliance is connected to the
power supply.
Check that your oven’s door is fully closed.
Check that the child safety feature is not
activated.
To drain residual water vapour, your appliance is
equipped with a delayed ventilation feature. The
fan continues to function for 15 minutes after the
end of the programme.
Clean the wheels and the rolling area under the
turntable.
Check that the wheels are correctly positioned.
Ensure that the cookware is suitable for
microwave ovens and that the power level is
appropriate.
This is caused by cooking residue on the grill
element burning off. This may happen if you
don’t use the grill function frequently or have
previously microwaved uncovered food that
splattered .The smoking will stop when the
residue has burnt off. To prevent food splatter
getting on the grill element, always cover foods
when microwaving, especially those with a high
fat content.
Thoroughly clean the appliance: remove grease,
cooking residue, etc.
Remove any metal items from the walls of the
oven.
Never use metal items with the rack.
