Warning and Safety Instructions
•THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY PERSONS (INCLUDING CHILDREN) WITH REDUCED PHYSICAL, SENSORY OR MENTAL CAPABILITIES, OR LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE, UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN SUPERVISION OR INSTRUCTION CONCERNING USE OF THE APPLIANCE BY A PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR SAFETY. CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED TO ENSURE THAT THEY DO NOT PLAY WITH THE APPLIANCE
•During use the appliance becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.
•Accessible parts may become hot during use Young children should be kept away.
•When this appliance is operated in the combination mode, children should be in adult supervision due to the temperatures generated.
•If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a competent person.
•It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
•Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers as they are liable to explode. When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc. the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of typical bubbles.The liquid does not boil evenly throughout.This so-called ‘boiling delay’ can cause a sudden build-up of bubbles when the container is removed from the oven or shaken,which can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively and can cause skin burning.
•Only allow children to use the oven with supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
•When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
•Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling; therefore care must be taken when handling the container.
•Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. Improper use can present a risk of both personal injury and material damage. To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance please read these operating instructions carefully before installation and before using it for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, operation and care of the appliance. Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user.
•Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass. A steam cleaner is not to be used.
•This appliance complies with all relevant local and national safety requirements.
•The appliance is intended for domestic use only: to cook, defrost, reheat and to grill food. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by improper or incorrect use of the appliance. Never use the microwave to store or dry items which could ignite easily. Moisture evaporates and create a Fire hazard.
•This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, do not allow children to play on or near it or to play with the controls.

•Supervise its use by older children, the elderly or infirm. If allowing older children to use the appliance without supervision, please ensure that they are aware of how a microwave oven works and understand the dangers of improper use.
Technical safety
•If the connection cable is damaged, the new cable must be fitted by a ILVE approved service technician.
•Do not use the microwave if the door is warped, the door hinges are loose, holes or cracks are visible in the casing, the door or the oven interior walls. Operating the appliance with this type of damage will result in microwave leakage and present a hazard to the user.
•Never open the casing of the appliance. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous and can cause operational faults or electric shock.
•Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the rating on the data plate corresponds to the voltage and frequency of the household supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
•Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
•The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and where there is any doubt, the on-site electrical wiring should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
•The appliance must be built in before operation to ensure that no electrical components are accessible.
•Repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
•The appliance is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed or the mains fuse is disconnected or the screw-out fuse is removed
(in countries where this is applicable).
•This equipment may only be used in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
•In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Using the Microwave Oven
•Always ensure that food is sufficiently heated.
•Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its initial temperature, changes to the recipe and the shape and size of cooking container.
•Some foods may contain micro-organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking, therefore when cooking or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked through (at temperatures over 70°C for more than 10 minutes). If in doubt, select a longer cooking or reheating time.
•It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and by observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.
•Always remember that times for cooking, reheating and defrosting in a microwave oven are usually considerably shorter than with traditional methods of food preparation.
•Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning, or could even cause it to catch fire. There is also a danger of fire if breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, etc., are dried in the microwave oven.
•Always ensure that this type of procedure is supervised.
•Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or pads filled with cherry kernels, wheat grains, lavender or gel, such as those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated, even after they have been removed from the microwave.
•Exercise caution when cooking or reheating food with a high sugar content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If heated for too long, the sugar may caramelise or ignite.
•Do not use full power to warm empty dishes.
•Do not use the appliance without food, or if it is incorrectly loaded.
•Never cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. With baby bottles, the screw top and teat must be removed. Otherwise pressure builds up which can cause the bottle or container to explode, posing a severe risk of injury.
•Before serving, remember to allow a sufficient standing time and then always check the temperature of the actual food itself after taking it out of the microwave. The temperature of the container is not an indication of the temperature of the food or liquid in it. This is particularly important when preparing food for babies, children, and the elderly or infirm. Shake or stir baby milk and food thoroughly after
heating, and try it for temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby. When heating food and drink remember that the heat is created in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The dish is only warmed by the heat of the food.
