Safeguarding the environment

GENERAL

This appliance is designed for domestic use only! The appliance should not be operated without

food in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.

If you practice operating the oven, put a glass of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged. Do not use the cavity for any storage purposes.

Remove wire twist - ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.

DEEP-FRYING Do not use your microwave oven for deepfrying, because the oil temperature cannot be controlled. Use hot pads or oven mitts to prevent burns, when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking.

LIQUIDS E.G. beverages or water. Overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid.

To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken:

1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

2. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and let the teaspoon remain in the container.

3. After heating, allow standing for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container from the oven.

CAREFUL Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol.

After heating baby food or liquids in a baby bottle or in a baby food jar, always stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.

Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!

After sales service

GENERAL There are a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use. Ensure that the utensils you use are oven proof and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking. When you put food and accessories in the microwave oven, ensure that they do not come in contact with the interior of the oven.

This is especially important with accessories made of metal or metal parts. If accessories containing metal comes in contact

with the oven interior, while the oven is in operation, sparking can occur and the oven could be damaged. Always ensure that the turntable is able to turn freely before starting the oven.

TURNTABLE SUPPORT Use the turntable support under the Glass turntable. Never put any other utensils on the turntable support.

• Fit the turntable support in the oven.

GLASS TURNTABLE Use the glass turntable with all cooking methods. It collects the dripping juices and food particles that otherwise would stain and soil the interior of the oven.

• Place the Glass turntable on the turntable support.

BAKING PLATE Use the baking plate when cooking in forced air. Never use it in combination with microwaves.

WIRE RACK Use the high wire rack when grilling using the Grill functions. Always use the low wire rack to put food on to allow the air to circulate properly around the food when using the Forced Air functions.

CRISP HANDLE

Use the supplied special crisp handle to remove the hot Crisp

plate from the oven.

CRISP-PLATE

Place the food directly on the crisp - plate. Always use the

Glass turntable as support when using the Crisp-plate. Do not place any utensils on the Crisp-plate since it will quickly become very hot and is likely to cause damage to the utensil. The crisp-plate may be preheated before use (max. 3 min..). Always use the Crisp function when preheating the crisp-plate.

STEAMER

Use the steamer with the strainer in place for foods such as

fish, vegetables and potatoes.

Use the steamer without the strainer in place for foods such as

rice, pasta and white beans. Always place the steamer on the Glass Turntable.

COVER The cover is used to cover food during cooking and reheating with microwaves only and helps to reduce spattering, retain food moisture as well as reducing the time needed. Use the cover for two level reheating.

Accessories

Doneness is available in most of the auto functions. You have the possibility to personally control the end result through the Adjust doneness feature. This feature enables you to achieve higher or lower end temperature compared to the default standard setting. When using one of these functions the oven chooses the default standard setting. This setting normally gives you the best result. But if the food you heated became too warm to eat at once, you can easily adjust this before you use that function the next time.

This is done by selecting a doneness level with the Adjust knob before pressing the Start button.
