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.
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.
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. DANGER OF FIRE.
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 oven for anything other than warming, cooking or defrosting food.
Do not operate the oven without its tray nor when empty.
Keep the 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.
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.
5
The microwaves pass through porcelain, glass, cardboard or 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, porcelain…
They are absorbed by the food.

Using the Browning Plate
Normally when cooking food, such as pizzas or pies, on a grill or in a microwave oven, the dough or pastry
becomes soggy. This can be avoided by using a browning plate. As a high temperature is reached quickly on
the bottom of the browning plate, the crust turns crisp and brown.
The browning plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Use oven gloves at all times as the browning plate will become very hot.
- Never place the browning plate in the oven without the glass plate.
- Do not place any recipients on the browning plate that are not heat-resistant (plastic bowls for example).
How to cook with the browning plate:
1. Preheat the browning plate by selecting the Microwave and Grill function for 3 to 5 minutes with a 70%
microwaves power level.
2. Brush the browning plate with oil in order to brown the food nicely.
3. Place the food on the browning plate. You can place defrost food (like frozen pizza) without a previous
defrosting.
4. Place the browning plate on the glass turntable in the microwave oven.
5. Select the MICROWAVES AND GRILL function and the cooking time as described above.
Food Weight Cooking Time Standing Time Recommendation
Pizza
Quiches and
Pies
200 g 5 min 2 min
300 g 6 min 2 min
400 g 7 min 2 min
200 g 5 min 2 min
300 g 6 min 2 min
400 g 8 min 2 min
This cooking time applies for pizzas with
thin dough.
For pre-cooked pizzas increase the time by
1 minute
The standing time will allow temperature
evenness.
Hamburgers --- 5 min --- Turn the hamburgers over once or twice to
achieve even browning on both faces.
Oven chips 400 g 6 min --- Stir the chips often to avoid burning them.
How to clean the browning plate
The best way to clean the browning plate is to wash it with hot water and detergent and rinse off with clean
water. Do not use a scrubbing brush or a hard sponge otherwise the top layer will be damaged.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
- As the browning plate has a Teflon layer, if you use it incorrectly, it can be damaged.
- Never cut the food on the plate. Remove the food from the plate prior to cutting.
- Turn the food over preferably with a plastic or wooden spatula.
13
While in operation ...
You can open the oven door at any time while the food is being cooked; this way:
- THE PRODUCTION OF MICROWAVES IS IMMEDIATELY INTERRUPTED;
- the Grill will be switched off, however, remaining very hot;
- the Timer will automatically stop, indicating the time still left.
Then, if you wish you may:
- Stir or turn the food, to improve even heating;
- Change the microwave power level by pressing the - (5) or + (12) buttons;
- Select another function by pressing the Function (2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11) buttons;
- Change the functioning time left by turning the ROTATING knob (14).
Close the door again and press the START button (6). The oven will restart working.
Interrupting the Operation
To stop the oven before completing its programmed time, press the STOP (13) button or open the door.
If you don’t wish to continue cooking the food, close the door and press the STOP (13) button again. The oven
will emit a sound and the Display (1) will show the Clock.
At the end of the functioning time, the oven will stop, emit 3 signal sounds and the Display (1) will show the
word “End”. The sound signals are repeated every 30 seconds until the door is opened or the STOP button
(13) pressed.

Advice for Good Usage of the Oven
Working with microwaves
Before using any dish, make sure that it is appropriate for use in microwaves (SEE ADVICE ON THE USE OF
UTENSILS AND RECIPIENTS).
Always make a slit in the food's shell before cooking it.
Whenever heating liquids use a recipient with a large opening to allow the vapour to escape.
Remember that:
1. Larger quantities of food require more cooking time.
2. The lower the food temperature the more cooking time is needed.
3. Less dense foods cook faster.
4. An even distribution of the food in the oven guarantees better results. The cooking of different types of
foods simultaneously is possible by placing the dense food in an outside circle and the less dense in the
centre of the plate.
5. Better results are achieved by allowing the food to stand before serving because it continues to cook for
some time after the oven is switched off.
6. The cooking time may be shortened and the liquids preserved (the food doesn't dry out) by covering the
food. The lids should be transparent to allow the microwaves through and they should have a small
opening for the vapour to escape.
Functioning of the grill
For best results of the grill, use the grill rack supplied with the appliance.
Do not place the grill rack in contact with the cavity’s metal surface as there may be an electric arc and
consequent damages.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. While the grill is being used for the first time, the producing of fumes and odours is normal, due to the
oils used in the manufacturing process.
2. After the first uses 0f the grill, it is normal for the perforated area that protects the heating elements of
the grill to deform and to become a golden colour due to the high temperatures that the grill reaches
during use.
3. The glass on the door reaches high temperatures during grilling. Therefore the oven should be installed
at least 80 cm above the floor, SO AS TO BE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
4. While in operation, the inside walls of the oven and the grill become very hot, therefore the use of
kitchen gloves is recommended.
5. During extended use of the grill it is normal for the heating elements to switch off for short periods due
to the action of the safety temperature limiter.
6. Do not use plastic containers or others that have poor temperature resistance, as these could be
destroyed due to the high temperatures that the grill reaches.
15
Advice on the use of Cookware
Metal
Do not use metal dishes, tinned food, food wrapped in tin foil and cutlery inside the microwave oven. The
metal reflects the microwaves and food is not heated.
The food should be removed from its tin foil containers and placed in dishes adequate for use in the
microwave oven. As microwaves don't penetrate tin foil, the food heats only on the surface. By using
appropriate dishes, the heat is evenly distributed throughout the food.
EXCEPTIONS:
To cook or defrost pieces of meat of irregular sizes, you may cover the thinner parts with tin foil, which should
be kept at least 2 cm away from the oven walls, otherwise these may cause an electric arc.
Metal spits may be used as long as they are smaller than the pieces of meat.
Glass
All heat proof glass containers may be used.
Crystal contains a percentage of lead, which may cause it to crack if used in the microwave oven. The same
may happen to glass dishes with jagged edges.
Porcelain
Porcelain dishes may be used but they should not have hollow handles. Humidity may be formed inside the
hollow handles, which will causes an increase in pressure that may cause them to break.
Glazed Ceramic Dishes
This type of dish may heat considerably.
Painted glazed ceramic dishes may be used if the painting is done under the glaze.
Many glazes and colours contain metallic substances. If this is the case they should not be used in the
microwave as they may be damaged.
Recipients with silver and gold glazes may go dark.
Plastic
Plastic dishes should be heat resistant (at least 180° C) or they may be deformed when used in the
microwave. Melamine dishes are not suitable for use in the microwave as they heat up too much.
To cook or heat food in plastic bags, they should be perforated to allow vapour to escape thus preventing the
bag from bursting.
16
Wood
Wooden recipients should not be used in the microwave. Wood contains water which evaporates and may
cause the recipient to crack.
Recipient Test
If in doubt about the use of glass, glazed ceramic or porcelain dishes in the microwave oven, do the following
test:
1. Place the empty dish and a glass of water inside the microwave oven;
2. Close the door;
3. Set the Power Level Selector at maximum power;
4. Adjust the timer to 1 minute;
Note: the oven starts
If during this test you hear any noise along with sparks, turn off the oven immediately.
Any kind of cookware that has this kind of behaviour or is very hot when removed from the oven should not
be used in the microwave oven.
EXCEPTIONS:
Glazed ceramic dish recipients contain many water molecules and heat a lot, but can be used in the
microwave oven.
If in doubt, contact the supplier of the cookware, and make sure that they are appropriate for microwaves.
Lids
The use of glass lids, plastic lids or plastic film is advisable because:
1. They prevent the release of excessive vapours especially when cooking for longer periods.
2. They increase the speed of heating food.
3. They prevent the food from drying up.
4. They prevent the loss of the food aroma.
The lids should have holes to avoid pressure. Plastic film should be perforated.
Baby bottles, baby food jars and other similar recipients should be warmed up without lids as they can burst.
17
Oven Maintenance
Cleaning
MAKE SURE THAT THE OVEN IS UNPLUGGED BEFORE CLEANING THE OVEN.
DON'T USE ABRASIVE CLEANING PRODUCTS.
OUTSIDE
1. Clean the outside surface with a neutral detergent, warm water and dry it with a damp cloth.
2. Avoid water from entering the oven ventilation holes.
INSIDE
1. Clean the oven walls with a damp cloth after each use.
2. Avoid water from entering the ventilation holes in the oven's interior.
3. If some time has passed by since the last cleaning and the oven's interior is dirty, place a glass of water
on the tray and switch on the oven for 4 minutes on the highest setting. Moisture will form on the oven
walls that will be easily cleaned.
4. The tray can be washed with regular dish washing detergent or in the dishwasher.
DOOR, DOOR SEAL, AND OVEN FRONT
1. These parts should always be clean, especially the contact surface between the door and the oven
front, to prevent microwave leakage.
2. Use neutral detergent, warm water and dry the surface with a soft cloth.
Light Replacement
In some models the light may be replaced by the user. These ovens have a lid on the left-hand side.
To replace the light, do as follows:
1. Unplug the oven;
2. Remove the lid from the light compartment;
3. Replace the light bulb for a new one (25 W);
4. Replace the lid.
WARNING: in the models without the lid to replace the light bulb, this should be done by the Technical
Assistance Service because special tools are required.
18
Official Technical Assistance Service (T.A.S.)
Solving Problems
Repairs or interventions carried out by an unqualified serviceman can cause dangerous situations.
Every and any kind of repair or intervention should be done by the manufacturer, authorised agents or
qualified technicians.
If you detect any abnormalities in the oven, check the following before you contact T.A.S:
1. Check if the outlet into which the oven is plugged has power. To do so, plug another appliance into the
same outlet and check if it works.
2. If the oven lamp switches on, but the food does not heat up, check if the door is well closed (if the door
is not properly closed, no microwaves will be produced).
Cord Replacement
If the cord is damaged, it should be replaced by the manufacturer, authorised agents or qualified technicians
in order to avoid any dangerous situation and also because special tools are required.

Indications Importantes
ATTENTION: Si la porte ou le joint de la porte sont endommagés, le four doit être débranché jusqu’à ce qu’il
soit réparé par un technicien dûment qualifié.
ATTENTION: Il est dangereux, pour toute personne, à l’exception d’un technicien qualifié, d’effectuer toute
intervention ou réparation concernant le changement de tout couvercle ou revêtement assurant la
protection contre l’exposition à l’énergie des micro-ondes.
ATTENTION: Les liquides ou autres aliments doivent être chauffés dans des récipients hermétiques pour
éviter tout risque d’explosion.
ATTENTION: Les enfants ne devront être autorisés à utiliser le four sans surveillance, que s’ ils ont reçus
préalablement les instructions adéquates et s’ils sont capables de l’utiliser en toute sécurité, conscients
des dangers d’une utilisation incorrecte.
Quand les aliments sont chauffés dans des récipients en plastique ou en papier, surveillez le four
fréquemment en raison de la possibilité d’ignition.
En cas de fumée, éteignez le four ou débranchez la prise et maintenez la porte fermée pour étouffer les
flammes éventuelles.
Après avoir réchauffé des biberons ou des petits pots de bouillie pour bébé, agitez ou mélangez leur contenu
et vérifiez la température des aliments avant de les servir, afin d’éviter des brûlures.
Chauffer des boissons au Micro-ondes peut entraîner une ébullition éruptive retardée, par conséquent
manipulez le récipient avec précaution.
Les oeufs dans leur coquille ainsi que les oeufs cuits ne doivent pas être chauffés dans le four micro-ondes
car ils peuvent exploser.
Ne placez aucun ustensile métallique à l’intérieur du four, à l’exception de ceux fournis avec l’appareil,
dûment conçus à cet effet.
Ne chauffez jamais de liquides ou tout autre aliment dans des récipients fermés en raison d’un risque
d’explosion
Ne faites pas chauffer d’alcool pur ou de boissons alcoolisées. DANGER D’INFLAMMATION.
En cas de doute, sélectionnez des temps courts pour cuisiner, réchauffer ou décongeler des aliments au
Micro-ondes. Avec des temps très longs, les aliments pourront devenir très secs et même commencer à
brûler.
Ne pas utiliser le four pour d'autres fonctions qui ne soient pas celles de réchauffer, cuisiner ou décongeler
les aliments.
Le four ne doit pas fonctionner sans plateau ou à vide.
Ne pas boucher les ouvertures de ventilation du four.

Description du Four à Micro-ondes
Quels sont les avantages du four à micro-ondes
Dans le four conventionnel, la chaleur irradiée par les résistances ou les brûleurs à gaz pénètre lentement
dans les aliments de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur. C'est pourquoi il existe une grande perte d'énergie lorsque
l'air, les composants du four et les récipients sont chauffés.
Dans le four à micro-ondes, bien au contraire, la chaleur est gérée de l'intérieur vers l'extérieur. Il n'existe pas
de perte d'énergie car l'air, les parois intérieures du four et les récipients (quand ils sont adéquats) ne
chauffent pas sous l'action des micro-ondes.
En résumé, les fours à micro-ondes présentent les avantages suivants:
1. Réduction du temps de cuisson: en général réduction de 3/4 du temps par rapport à la cuisson
conventionnelle.
2. Décongélation ultra-rapide des aliments, réduisant le danger du développement des bactéries.
3. Économie d'énergie.
4. Conservation de la valeur nutritive des aliments due à la réduction du temps de cuisson.
5. Nettoyage facile.
Comment fonctionne le four à micro-ondes
Dans le four à micro-ondes, il existe une valve de haute tension appelée magnétron qui convertit l'énergie
électrique en énergie de micro-ondes. Les ondes électromagnétiques sont canalisées vers l'intérieur du four
grâce à un guide d'ondes et distribuées par un répartiteur d'ondes métalliques ou à travers un plateau
tournant.
À l'intérieur du four les micro-ondes se répandent dans tous les sens et sont réfléchies par les parois
métalliques, pénétrant uniformément dans les aliments.
Pourquoi les aliments chauffent-ils?
La majorité des aliments contiennent de l'eau dont les molécules vibrent sous l'action des micro-ondes.
La friction entre les molécules est à l'origine de la chaleur qui fait monter la température des aliments, les
décongelant, les cuisant ou les maintenant chauds.
Comme la chaleur se forme à l'intérieur des aliments:
- Ceux-ci peuvent être cuits sans / ou avec peu de liquides ou de graisses;
- Décongeler, chauffer ou cuisiner dans le four à micro-ondes est plus rapide que dans un four
conventionnel;
- Les vitamines, les minéraux et les substances nutritives se conservent;
- La couleur naturelle et la saveur ne changent pas.
24
Les micro-ondes passent à travers la porcelaine, le verre, le carton ou le plastique mais ils ne traversent pas
le métal. Pour cette raison, dans votre four à micro-ondes, n’utilisez pas de récipients métalliques ou
composés de parties métalliques.
