Installation Instruction
Remove the microwave oven from packing.
Remove all packing materials and accessories from the microwave oven cavity.
Check whether the following parts are in good condition:
- Door and hinges;
- Front of the microwave oven;
- Inside and outside of microwave oven.
Should you find any faults DO NOT USE THE MICROWAVE OVEN, and contact your dealer.
Place the microwave oven on a flat stable surface able to support its weight.
To allow efficient cooling of the microwave oven its installation is recommended in a unit with an
opening in the upper part (refer to the installation instructions leaflet enclosed).
Warning: The microwave oven plug shall be accessible after installation.
When installing the microwave oven great care should be taken to ensure that the mains power cable
cannot come into contact with the rear since the high temperatures involved could cause damage.
When the microwave oven is installed in a column with a conventional oven, the microwave oven must
not be located underneath the conventional oven because of the possibility of condensation forming
inside the latter.
The microwave oven has been supplied with a mono-phase power supply cord. The appliance must be
earthed.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The manufacturers and dealers are not liable for any breakdowns or personal accidents should these
installation instructions not be observed by the purchaser.
23
Important Information
WARNING: If the door or the door hinges are damaged, the oven should not be switched on until
repaired by a qualified technician.
WARNING: It is dangerous for anyone, except a qualified technician, to tamper with the apparatus or
try to repair it in any way by removing any lid or covering which assures protection against the
exposure to microwave energy.
WARNING: Liquids and other food should not be heated in airtight recipients as these can explode.
WARNING: Children should only be allowed to use the oven without adult supervision if they have been
given the appropriate instructions so that they can use the oven safely and understand the dangers of
its incorrect use.
WARNING: When the microwave oven is operated in the Combination mode (Microwaves + Grill),
children should only be allowed to use the unit under adult supervision due to the high temperatures
generated.
WARNING: The microwave oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed (please
see the chapter on Oven Maintenance for details). 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.
When heating food in plastic or paper recipients, check the oven frequently in case they ignite.
If any smoke is detected, then switch off the oven or disconnect it and keep the door closed in order for
any flame to die out.
After warming up baby bottles or baby food jars, stir or shake its contents and check the temperature
before feeding, to avoid burns.
Warming up drinks in the microwave oven may result in a delayed eruptive boiling, therefore one should
be careful when handling the recipient.
Eggs with their shell and whole boiled eggs shouldn’t be warmed up in microwave ovens as they may
explode, even after microwave heating has ended.
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. Do not use any metal utensils inside the
oven unless they were supplied with the oven and for that purpose.
Do not warm up liquids or other food in closed recipients as they may explode.
Do not warm up pure alcohol or alcoholic drinks. FIRE DANGER.
When in doubt, choose short periods to cook, heat or defrost food with microwaves. With long cooking
periods the food may become dry and even begin to burn.
Do not use the microwave oven for anything other than warming, cooking or defrosting food.
Do not operate the microwave oven without its tray nor when empty.
Keep the microwave oven ventilation holes open. Never cover any air vents or openings.

Description of the Microwave Oven
The Advantages of a Microwave Oven:
In a conventional oven the heat radiated by the resistances or gas burners, slowly penetrates the food
from the outside to the inside. There is, therefore, a great loss of energy in the heating of the air, oven
components and recipients.
On the other hand, in microwave ovens the heat is generated in the interior of the food itself, heating it
from the inside outwards. There is therefore no loss of energy as the air, interior walls of the oven and
recipients (when adequate) do not heat up with microwaves.
In short, microwave ovens have the following advantages:
1. Save on cooking time: in general there is a 3/4 reduction of the cooking time than with conventional
methods.
2. Ultra-quick defrosting that prevents bacteria development.
3. Electricity saving.
4. Maintaining the nutritive value of the food due to the cooking time reduction.
5. Easy cleaning.
How the Microwave Oven Works?
In the microwave oven there is a high voltage valve called "Magnetron" that converts electric energy to
Microwave energy. These electromagnetic waves are conducted to the inside of the oven cavity by means
of wave-guide and spread by a mode stirrer or by a turntable.
Inside the oven, the Microwaves spread out in all directions and are reflected by the metallic walls,
penetrating the food evenly.
25
Why does the Food Heat Up?
Most food contains water, whose molecules vibrate with Microwaves.
The friction between the molecules generates heat, which causes a temperature rise in the food,
defrosting it, cooking it or keeping it warm.
As the heat is formed inside the food:
- It may be cooked with little or no liquid or fat;
- Defrosting, heating or cooking in the microwave oven is quicker than in a conventional oven;
- Vitamins, minerals and nutritive substances are preserved;
- There is no change in the natural colour and smell of the food.
The Microwaves pass through porcelain, glass, cardboard and plastic but not through metal. Therefore,
recipients made of or containing metal should not be used in the microwave oven.
The Microwaves are reflected by the metal…
…they pass through Glass and Porcelain…
…and they are absorbed by the food.

General Thawing Instructions
1. Use suitable containers when thawing (porcelain, glass or other material that is suitable for using with
microwave ovens).
2. The Thawing by Weight and Thawing by time tables refer to raw food items and the weights given do
not include the containers.
3. The thawing time will vary depending on the amount and height of the food items. Small amounts will
thaw more easily than large ones.
4. In the case of more delicate food items or those with an irregular shape, it is recommended that the
smaller parts, such as the legs and wings of poultry of fish fins be covered. Aluminium foil should be
used for this and removed after half the thawing time has elapsed. The aluminium foil should be at
least two centimetres from the microwave oven wall, otherwise it will cause sparking.
5. Thick food items should be turned several times.
6. The frozen food items should be evenly distributed inside the microwave oven. Flat food items will
thaw more easily.
7. Food items containing a lot of fat, such as butter or cottage cheese (a dairy product, which is quite
thick), together with cream, should not be completely thawed. Only a few minutes of waiting time are
required so that these are ready to be served and consumed. Cream that was frozen should be
whipped if there are still a few frozen pieces remaining.
8. Poultry should be placed on a small plate upside down so that they are able to drain better.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a serviette to prevent it from drying out.
