Using Aluminium Foil in your Microwave
It is safe to use aluminium foil in your microwave as long as you follow these safety guidelines. As with all metal, microwave energy cannot pass through foil, but provided that you keep the foil
away from the side of the microwave it will not cause sparks and there will not be any damage to your microwave.
Using foil is a good way of shielding parts of food that you do not want to cook as quickly as others – perhaps where the food is narrower and would otherwise overcook.
Place the foil over the area you want to shield, taking care that the foil will not touch the sides of the microwave when the turntable rotates. Only use one piece of foil at a time so that you do not get sparks between the separate pieces.
Follow these guidelines when using foil in your microwave:
• Remove foil lids from containers before using in the microwave. Some lids are made of card with a foil covering – these should be removed too. Use a microwave safe transparent lid if possible.
• Stir food during cooking if the container has a lid or film cover.
• Always use the glass turntable.
• Use shallow containers with a large surface area. Do not use containers that are more than 1.25in
(3.5cm) deep.
• Use gloves when handling hot foil containers.
• Do not completely cover food with foil. The microwave energy cannot pass through the foil so the food
will not cook.
• Do not let aluminium foil touch the inside of the microwave.
• Do not use more than one piece of foil in the microwave at the same time.

GB
2. Choose a flat work surface for your microwave away from heat sources such as radiators or fires and away from cold areas. You should allow a 10cm space all around the microwave and 30cm above so that warm air can escape from the vents during cooking – This microwave is not designed to be built in.
Getting Ready
This microwave is designed for home use. It should not be used for commercial catering.
1. After unpacking your microwave, check that it has not been damaged whilst in the box. Make sure there are no dents, and the door closes properly. A damaged microwave could allow microwave energy to escape. Make sure that you have taken out all of the packaging from the inside of the microwave. Please dispose of the plastic wrappings/ bags safely and keep out of the reach of babies and young children.
3. Plug your microwave into a standard household electrical socket (230 volt, 13 amp rated). Avoid using a socket that also has an adaptor and other equipment plugged in. Do not use a multi adaptor.
4. Put the turntable ring inside the microwave and place the glass turntable on top of the ring. The turntable is shaped to sit securely on the spindle. You must always use the turntable and ring whenever you use the microwave.

Introducing Microwave Cooking
Always remember the basic safeguards you should follow when using any cooking equipment or handling hot food.
See below for basic guidelines in microwave cooking.
Cooking with a Microwave
• Cooking with a microwave is much faster than conventional cooking and, whilst you should make sure that food is fully cooked, you should be careful not to overcook it.
• Microwave energy can heat unevenly so stirring to distribute heat is very important. Always stir from the outside, inwards.
• If you are cooking a number of individual foods at the same time, such as baked potatoes or small cakes, arrange them evenly on the turntable so that they cook evenly. Never stack food in your microwave.
• Turn larger foods such as meat roasts and poultry during cooking so that the top and bottom cook evenly. It is also recommended to turn pieces of meat or poultry, especially if they have not been deboned.
• Meat and poultry which is cooked for 15 minutes or more will brown lightly in it’s own fat. Anything cooked for a shorter time can be brushed with a browning sauce to give an appetising colour.
• Strips of aluminium foil can be used to cover the thinner pieces of food to stop them overcooking before the thicker parts of the food have had a chance to cook. Use the foil sparingly and wrap around the food or container carefully to stop it touching the inside of the microwave which could cause sparks.
• Microwave cook food using microwave energy that is similar to naturally occurring radio waves. Normally, these “waves” would fade as they dispersed into the atmosphere but in a microwave they are concentrated onto food causing it to heat up.
• Microwave energy cannot pass through metal – so it cannot escape from inside your microwave – but it can pass through materials like glass, porcelain, plastic and paper. These materials are used in the manufacture of microwave safe cooking equipment.
• Microwave safe cooking equipment will still get hot as the food it contains heats up.
The microwave energy focuses on the moisture in the food causing lots of tiny vibrations. The vibrations get so great that the moisture – and the food – heat up.

Checking your Cooking Utensils
Most heat-resistant, non-metallic cooking utensils are safe to use in your microwave. If you are not sure if you can use a utensil in your microwave, follow this simple test:
1. Put the utensil into the microwave next to a cup of water – use a cup that you know is microwave safe. Close the door.
2. Turn the microwave on for 30 seconds only.
3. After 30 seconds, carefully check to see if the water has warmed up.
4. If the water has not warmed up but the utensil has, the utensil is not microwave safe and should not be used in the microwave.
5. Do not use your hands to touch the utensils as it may already be hot.

GB
Microwave Heating Categories
Your microwave has been tested and labelled to meet the government’s voluntary agreement on the reheating of pre-cooked food.
The heating characteristics and output power levels of microwave are usually calculated using a relatively large portion of food (a 1000 gram load, IEC 705) but many packs of pre-cooked food are sold in smaller packs, often about 350 grams.
The government, in partnership with food companies and microwave manufacturers, have set up a system of heating categories to help you choose the reheating time for pre-cooked food.
800W
E
800W is the output power of the microwave.
E is the heating category for your microwave. Check the cooking times for category E on the food’s packaging to see how long it should be cooked for. Please see below example for reference.
To Microwave:
1. Remove outer packaging.
2. Pierce film lid SEVERAL TIMES.
3. Place on a microwaveable plate.
4. Heat on full power.
5. Turn halfway through heating.

Steam
When you microwave food, steam is created as water in the food heats up and evaporates. The steam formed during microwave cooking is entirely safe. It has to escape from the microwave to
prevent pressure from building up inside the microwave. It does this through the vents on the back of the microwave and from around the door.
Condensation
As the steam cools, you may find the condensation gathers in small pools inside your microwave and on the work surface beneath the door and vents. Always dry the microwave after cooking foods with a high moisture content.
Your microwave is designed to let steam escape from the vents and around the door without microwave energy escaping. There is no danger of microwave energy escaping with the steam.
Checking your Microwave
Check your microwave after unpacking.
For your safety, the microwave stops if the door is opened during cooking. Close the door and press the Start button to continue the cooking cycle.
1. Press the Door button to open the door. Place a cup of water on the glass turntable. Make sure the cup is microwave safe (it should
not have any decorative metal trim).
2. Close the door.
3. Press the Stop / Clear button to clear any settings that have already been made.
4. Press the Weight / Time dial once to start a simple 30-second microwave cooking cycle. This allows you to check the operation of the microwave.
5. When the cooking cycle has finished, the water should be hot (be careful when you take the cup out of the microwave). Press the Stop / Clear button to clear any settings.

Cleaning Your Microwave
Cleaning your microwave each time you use it will help to prevent a build up of stubborn marks that can be difficult to clean.
Unplug your microwave from the mains and wait for it to cool down completely before cleaning. On the right hand side wall of the cavity is the wave guide cover, microwaves are passed though this to
enable your food to cook. It is important that this wave guide cover is kept clean at all times. Wipe it with mild detergent and water and leave to dry.
Treat the glass turntable as you would any glass plate. After you have used it for more than 15 minutes, allow it to cool down before you use it again. Do not wash the turntable in very hot water, doing so could crack it.
Make sure the glass turntable is dry before you put it back in the microwave.
10
Wash rack and turnable ring in warm water. Do not use very hot water on them which could make them warp.
11
The microwave walls have a special enamel coating which makes cleaning very easy. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe off any splashes or a paper towel to mop up any spills. Wipe off grease with a damp cloth and a little detergent. Dry thoroughly. As with any, if grease is left to accumulate, it can smoke and even catch fire.
1
Make sure you keep the outlet grids clean.
2
Keep the front of the microwave clean so that the door can close properly.
3
Be careful not to spill water into the vents.
4
Do not remove wave guide cover: It is important to keep the cover clean in the same manner as the inside of the microwave. If grease is left to accumulate, it can smoke and even catch fire.
5
Keep the inside of the door clean with a damp cloth. Use warm soapy water for stubborn marks and dry thoroughly.
The inside of the door has a special coating and must not be cleaned with abrasive pads or cleaning powders.
6
Clean behind the door ledge.
7
Use warm soapy water to clean the outside of the microwave. Do not use abrasive pads or powders that could scratch the surface.
8
Unplug the microwave before cleaning the power lead and the microwave.
Wipe with a damp cloth and leave to dry before plugging it back in.
9
Do not remove any fixed parts from the inside of your microwave during cleaning or at any other time.

Frequently Asked Questions
If a problem does occur, it may often be due to something very minor. The following Q & A may be able to resolve the problem.
Questions Answers
Why doesn’t the food seem to cook?
Check that:
• the cooking time has been set
• the door is closed
• the power socket is not overloaded causing the fuse to blow.
Why does the food seem undercooked or overcooked?
Check that:
• the correct cooking time has been set
• the correct power setting has been used.
How can I stop eggs from popping? When you bake or poach eggs in the microwave, the yolk can
sometimes pop as steam builds up inside it. You can stop the egg from popping by piercing the yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never cook eggs that are still in their shells.
Why is it so important that I allow standing time after cooking?
With microwave cooking, many foods build up enough heat inside them to continue cooking even after they’ve been taken out of the microwave. Because microwave cooking works from the outside of food inwards, standing time lets you cook the centre of the food without the outside being overcooked.
Why does my microwave sometimes take longer to cook than it says in the recipe?
First check that the microwave was set just as the recipe said. Cooking times and heat settings are suggestions to help prevent overcooking but differences in the weight, size, shape and starting temperature of food will all affect how long it takes to cook – just as it does with a conventional microwave. Use your judgement along with the recipe to check whether the food has been cooked properly.
Why do I get condensation on the inside of the door?
Condensation is perfectly normal, especially when you are cooking food with a high moisture content such as potatoes.
Does the microwave energy get through the window on the door?
No. The door has a special metal screen with holes in that lets you see inside but stops microwave energy from getting out.
Steam comes out of the side of the door and vents. Can microwave energy get out too?
No. The door and vents are carefully designed to let steam out during cooking but keep microwave energy in. The gaps are not big enough for microwave energy to escape.
What happens if the microwave is switched on while the microwave is empty?
The microwave will be damaged. Do not switch the microwave on when there’s nothing inside the microwave. It is a good idea to keep a cup of water in the microwave just in case someone accidentally starts the microwave.
Why doesn’t the microwave’s light illuminate?
Open the door. If the light does not illuminate, the bulb has probably blown. Call a qualified technician – do not try to change the bulb yourself.
There are sparks inside the microwave when I use the microwave. Will this cause any damage?
Yes. Make sure that you are not using any metal utensils and that your containers don’t have a metal trim. You must not use metal in your microwave when you cook (except aluminium foil).
Light is showing through the vents and door. Does this mean the microwave energy can escape?
No. It is normal for the light to be visible and is nothing to be concerned about.
Why do I get interference on my TV and radio when I use the microwave?
Microwaves use radio waves similar to those received by TVs and radios. You can lessen the interference by moving your microwave further away from the TV or radio.

Uso della pellicola d'alluminio nel forno a microonde
Fintanto che sono seguite le regole di sicurezza si può usare la pellicola d'alluminio nel forno a microonde. Come con tutti i metalli, le microonde non possono passare attraverso l'alluminio, fermo restando che
si tenga la pellicola d'alluminio lontana dalle pareti interne del forno non si creeranno scintille e non si provocheranno guasti al forno.
L'uso della pellicola d'alluminio è un buon modo per schermare quelle parti di cibo che non si vuole cuocere rapidamente come le altre – ad esempio le parti meno spesse che altrimenti si brucerebbero.
Collocare la pellicola d'alluminio sull'area che si vuole schermare, controllando che la pellicola d'alluminio non tocchi le parti interne del forno a microonde mentre il piatto gira. Usare un solo foglio d'alluminio alla volta così da non creare scintille tra i due fogli separati.
Seguire queste istruzioni quando si usa la pellicola d'alluminio nel forno a microonde:
• Rimuovere coperchi di alluminio dai contenitori quando si usa il forno a microonde. Alcuni coperchi di carta hanno una pellicola d'alluminio –anche questi devono essere rimossi. Se possibile, usare un coperchio trasparente di materiale sicuro per cottura a microonde.
• Mescolare i cibi durante la cottura se il contenitore ha un coperchio o è coperto da una pellicola.
• Usare sempre il piatto girevole di vetro.
• Usare contenitori bassi ed ampi. Non usare contenitori con una profondità superiore a 1,25 pollici
(3,5 cm).
• Usare ganti da forno quando si maneggiano i contenitori caldi.
• Non coprire completamente il cibo con la pellicola d'alluminio. Le microonde non possono passare
attraverso la pellicola d'alluminio quindi il cibo non si può cucinare.
• Non permettere alla pellicola d'alluminio di toccare la parte interna del forno a microonde.
• Non usare più di un foglio di alluminio per volta.

2. Scegliere una superficie di lavoro piatta per il forno a microonde, lontana da sorgenti di calore come radiatori o caminetti, e lontana da luoghi molto freddi. Bisogna lasciare 10 cm di spazio tutto attorno al forno e 30 cm di spazio sopra al forno per consentire all’aria calda di dissiparsi dalle aperture di ventilazione durante la cottura – il forno non è progettato per l’incasso.
Operazioni preliminari
Questo forno a microonde è progettato per uso domestico. Non deve essere usato in cucine ad uso commerciali, come ristoranti.
1. Dopo avere disimballato il forno a microonde, verificare non sia stato danneggiato mentre era nella confezione. Assicurarsi che non ci siano ammaccature e che lo sportello sia chiusa in modo appropriato. Ammaccature o danni al forno possono consentire la fuoriuscita delle microonde. Assicurarsi di togliere tutti i materiali d'imballaggio dall'interno del forno a microonde. Sistemare gli imballaggi / sacchetti di plastica in modo sicuro e tenerli lontani dalla portata di neonati e bambini.
3. Collegare il forno a microonde ad una presa elettrica standard per elettrodomestici (230 Volt, 13 Ampère). Evitare di usare una presa di corrente con adattatori che accomodano altri elettrodomestici. Non usare adattatori.
4. Collocare il supporto del piatto girevole all'interno del forno e mettere il piatto sopra il supporto. Il supporto del piatto girevole è modellato per incastrarsi in sicurezza sul perno. Ogni volta che si usa il forno a microonde è obbligatorio usare il supporto del piatto girevole con il suo piatto.

Introduzione alla cottura al microonde
Ricordarsi sempre le regole basilari di sicurezza che si devono osservare quando si usa qualsiasi utensile per la cottura o quando si maneggiano i cibi caldi.
Di seguito sono descritte delle linee guida di base per la cottura a microonde.
Cucinare con il forno a microonde
• La cottura con il forno a microonde è molto più rapida che con i forni convenzionali e, mentre è necessario assicurarsi che il cibo sia cotto completamente, è necessario anche prestare attenzione a non stracuocere i cibi.
• Le microonde non riscaldano in modo uniforme, quindi è importante mescolare i cibi per distribuire il calore. Mescolare sempre dall’esterno all’interno.
• Se si cucinano cibi diversi al contempo, come patate al forno e piccoli dolci, arrangiarli equamente sul piatto girevole così che cucinino uniformemente. Non impilare mai i cibi nel forno a microonde.
• Durante la cottura, girare cibi come gli arrosti ed il pollame così che la parte superiore ed inferiore si cucinino in modo uniforme. Si raccomanda anche di girare i pezzi di carne o pollame, in modo particolare se non sono stati disossati.
• La carne ed il pollame che è cotto per 15 minuti o più si rosolerà leggermente nel suo stesso grasso. Qualsiasi cosa cotta per periodi inferiori può essere scurita con un sugo per dargli un colore appetitoso.
• Si possono usare fogli di alluminio per coprire le parti di cibo meno spesse per impedire che stracuociano prima che le parti più spesse abbiano la possibilità di cucinarsi. Usare poco alluminio e coprire accuratamente il cibo o il contenitore in modo che non tocchi alcuna parte interna del forno a microonde, diversamente si provocheranno scintille.
• I forni a microonde cucinano i cibi usando le microonde che sono simili alle onde radio che si trovano in natura. Di norma queste “onde” si disperdono nell'atmosfera, però in un forno a microonde sono concentrate sui cibi provocandone il riscaldamento.
• Le microonde non possono passare attraverso il metallo – quindi non possono uscire dal forno – però possono passare attraverso materiali come vetro, porcellana, plastica e carta. Questi materiali sono utilizzati nella produzione di utensili sicuri per la cottura a microonde.
• Tuttavia questi si scalderanno come il cibo in essi contenuto inizia a scaldarsi.
L'energia del forno a microonde si concentra sul contenuto d’acqua dei cibi provocando molte piccole vibrazioni. Le frizioni diventano così intense che il contenuto idrico – ed il cibo - si scalda.
