knobs are in the OFF position.
To minimise the possibility of burns, always be
certain that the controls are in the OFF position and
that the entire oven is cool before attempting to

Cooking high moisture content foods can create a
‘steam burst’ when the oven door is opened. When

What kind of ovenware can be
used?
Microwave function
Grilling
In the case of the grill function, the ovenware should be
resistant to temperature of at least 300°C. Plastic dishes are
not suitable for the grill function.
Metal pans, dishes or containers with metal parts or
decorations cannot be used in the microwave. Glassware and
clay with metallic decoration or content (e.g. lead crystal)
cannot be used for microwave oven.
The ideal material for microwave oven is glass, refractory
china or clay, or heat resistant plastic. Very thin, fragile glass
or china should only be used for short period of time (e.g.
heating)
To test ovenware, put the item in the oven for 20 seconds
at maximum microwave power, after 20 seconds, take the
ovenware out immediately, it is suitable to use if it is cold or
just slightly warm. However, it is not suitable for microwave
oven if it heats up a lot or causes electric arcing.
Combination functions
In the combination functions (microwave + conventional
heating elements), the ovenware used should be suitable for
microwave and grill.
Aluminum containers and foil
Pre-cooked food in aluminum containers or in aluminum
foil can be put in the microwave if the following aspects are
respected.
Please read the manufacturer's recommendations written on
the external packing.
The aluminum containers cannot be more than 3 cm high or
come in contact with the cavity walls (minimum distance 3
cm). Any aluminum lid or top should be removed.
The cooking time is longer because the microwaves only
permeate into food from the top. If you have any doubts, it is
best to use only dishes suitable for microwave use.
Aluminum foil cannot come into contact with the
cavity walls since this may cause electrical arcing.
Lids
We recommend you use glass or plastic lids or cling lm:
• In case of excessive evaporation (mainly during very
long cooking times)
• Cooking time is shorter
• The aroma is preserved
To prevent a build-up of pressure when cooking in sealed
containers, the lid should have holes or openings to allow for
sucient ventilation. Plastic bags should be opened. Baby
feeding bottles or jars with baby food and similar containers
can only be heated without tops/lids on, otherwise they may
burst.
Cooking with microwave
Read the safety instructions before using your
microwave
• Before heating or cooking foods with peel or skin (e.g.
apples, tomatoes, potatoes, sausages) peel them so that
they do not burst. Cut the food up before starting to
prepare it.
• Before using a container or dish make sure that it is
suitable for microwave use.
• When cooking food with very little moisture (e.g.
defrosting bread, making popcorn, etc.) evaporation is
very quick. The oven then works as if it was empty and
the food may burn. The appliance and the container
may be damaged in such situation. You should therefore
5
set just the cooking time necessary and you should
keep a close eye on the cooking process.
• If you have several containers, such as cups, for example,
set them out uniformly on the turntable plate
• DO NOT seal plastic bags with metal clips. Use plastic
clips instead. Prick the bags for several holes so that the
steam can escape.
• Check that they reach at least a temperature of 70°C.
When heating or cooking foods.
• Steam on the oven door during cooking may start
to appear. This situation is normal and may be more
noticeable if the room temperature is low. The process
of cooking is not affected by this. After you have
finished cooking, clean up the water coming from the
condensation.
• When heating liquids, use containers with a wide
opening, so that the steam can evaporate easily.
• Prepare the foods as per the instructions and keep in
mind the cooking times and power levels indicated in
the tables.
• Keep in mind that the figures given are only
indicative and can vary depending on the initial state,
temperature, moisture and type of food. It is depending
on the initial state, temperature, moisture and different
types of food. It is advisable to adjust the times and
power levels to each situation. Depending on the exact
characteristics of the food you may need to increase or
shorten the cooking times or increase or decrease the
power levels.
• The greater the amount of food, the longer the cooking
time. Keep in mind that: Double the quantity = double
the time. Half the quantity = half the time
• The lower the temperature, the longer the cooking time.
• Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more quickly
• Cooking will be more uniform if the food is evenly
distributed on the turntable. If you put dense foods on
the outer part of the plate and less dense ones on the
centre of the plate, you can heat up different types of
food simultaneously.
• You can open the oven door at any time. When you do
this the oven switches off automatically. The microwave
will only start working again when you close the door
and press the start key.
• It takes less time if we put a cover over food, but the
cover should have vents avoiding extreme pressure.

Cooking with the Grill
TimeGrill
Table 2.6 page 28
IMPORTANT POINTS:
• There will be some smoke and smell when the grill is
used for the first time. That is because of oil left from the
manufacture process.
• The glass of oven door becomes very hot when the
oven is working. Keep children away.
• When the grill is used for extended period of time, it is
normal to find that the elements will switch themselves
off temporarily due to the safety thermostat.
• Important: When food is to be grilled or cooked in
containers you should check that the container is
suitable for microwave use. See the section on types of
ovenware!
• When the grill is used it is possible that some splashes
of fat may go onto the elements and be burnt. This is a
normal situation and does not mean there is any kind of
operation fault.
• After you have finished cooking, clean the interior and
the accessories so that cooking remains do not become
encrusted.
