Tips on environmental protection

Eliminating the packaging

The packaging carries the Green Dot. Use the right bins when discarding all of the packaging materials, such as the cardboard, styrene and plastic films. This will ensure that the packaging materials are recycled.

Disposal of old electrical appliances The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.

The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Before you dispose of your appliance, remove the power cable, cut it and dispose of it.

• If you see smoke or fire, keep the door closed, to put out the flames. Switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the socket.

• Warning! Children may only use the appliance under supervision, or if they have been given instructions, so that they may use the appliance safely and identify the dangers in case of incorrect use.

• Warning! Considerable care is required when the grill is functioning. Keep children away from the appliance!

• Our appliances meet the necessary regulations and rules for technical equipment. However, these do not cover all the possible accident risks.

• When using inflammable materials, such as plastics or paper containers, to heat or cook foods, the cooking process must be monitored on a continuous basis, because of the risk of fire.

• Before using dishes or containers in the microwave, check if they are microwave-saveOnly use microwave-safe dishes.

• The power cable should not touch damp, sharp-edged objects or the appliance when it is hot.

• When connecting electrical appliances in the vicinity of the microwave, ensure that the power cables do not touch the microwave when it is hot and that they do not get caught in the oven door, in order to avoid damage and danger.

• Pay attention to operating faults. The appliance may not be used in the following cases:

- If the door does not close properly;

- If the door-hinges are damaged;

- If the contact surfaces between the door and

the front are damaged;

- If the glass in the window is damaged;

- If there is often an electrical arch inside the

oven, without the presence of any metallic object.

• The ventilation holes may not be covered.

Cleaning/ maintenance:

• Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning, remove the plug from the socket.

• Please remember the cleaning tips contained in the section “Cleaning and care”.

• The contact surfaces (the front of the cavity and the inside of the door) must be kept quite clean in order to guarantee correct functioning. Clean the contact surfaces with a neutral detergent and a cloth that does not scratch or cause any type of friction.

• Warning: Never use the appliance if the contact surfaces are damaged. Only use the appliance again if it has been repaired by a technician from the Technical Support Service.

Safety tips

The following tips avoid damage to the appliance:

• Do not switch on the appliance without the rotating base and respective plate.

• Do not switch on the appliance when it is empty. This may result in overload, if there is no food inside.

• Only use microwave-safe dishes.

• Do not keep any inflammable object inside the

oven, because it may go on fire when the oven is switched on.

• Eggs with shells and whole boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens because they may explode.

• Do not heat pure alcohol or alcoholic drinks in the microwave.

THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD.

• Warning: do not heat liquids or other foods in closed containers, because they could easily explode.

Be careful!

• When heating small amounts of food, it is very important not to select long periods of time or very high power levels, because the food may overheat or burn. For example, bread may burn after 3 minutes if a very high power level is selected.

• To toast, only use the grill function and supervise the oven at all times. If you are using the combined function (microwave and grill) to toast, the bread will go on fire in a very short period of time.

• Always heat baby food in jars or bottles without lids or teats. After heating the food, shake or stir it well to ensure that the heat is uniformly distributed. Check the temperature of the food before giving it to the child, Burning

hazard!

In case of repair:

• ¡Warning – Microwaves! The outer protection should not be removed. Any

repair or maintenance carried out by persons that have not been authorised by the manufacturer is dangerous.

Be careful when heating liquids!

• When heating liquids (water, coffee, tea, milk, etc.), they may almost reach boiling point inside the appliance and if they are removed suddenly, may fly out of the container. This may cause injuries and burns!

• In order to avoid this type of situations, put a plastic spoon or glass rod in the container when heating liquids.

• Warning: The light bulb may only be replaced by the Technical Support Service.

• If the power cable is damaged, only the Technical Support Service may replace it with one of the same characteristics, in order to avoid damage.

• Repairs and maintenance, especially of charged parts, may only be carried out by technicians that have been authorised by the manufacturer.

Installation instructions

Use the “open” button to open the door and remove all packaging materials. Then clean the inside and the accessories with a damp cloth and dry them. Do not use abrasive or strong-smelling products.

Ensure that the following parts are in good condition:

• Door and hinges

• Front of the microwave

• Inner and outer surfaces of the appliance

DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE if you notice any kind of defect in the aforementioned parts. If this occurs, contact the Technical Support Service.

Place the appliance on a stable, flat surface. Fit the rotating base in the centre of the

microwave cavity and place the rotating plate on top until it clicks into position. Whenever the microwave is used, both the rotating plate and the respective base must be inside the oven and correctly positioned. The rotating plate turns clockwise and anti-clockwise.

In order to ensure proper ventilation for the appliance, install the microwave in a kitchen unit with an opening on the top (see attached sheets).

Warning: after installing the microwave, it is necessary to guarantee access to the electrical socket.

During installation, ensure that the power cable does not come into contact with the back of the appliance, because the high temperatures may damage the cable.

If you are installing a microwave and a conventional oven in the same column, the microwave must not be placed under the oven, because of the formation of condensation.

The appliance must not be placed in the vicinity of heating elements, radios or television sets.

The appliance is equipped with a power cable and a plug for single phase current.

Warning! The microwave oven may be wrapped in a protective film. Before switching it on for the first time, carefully remove this film, starting at the underside.
