•Verify the power voltage. If there is a PERMANENT undervoltage (200-210 volts), consult your electrical installer.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

•Your installation must be protected by a 16 Amp thermal fuse.

•It is mandatory to use a power point with a ground terminal, connected in accordance with current safety regulations.

•Your electrical installation should allow an accessible device to the user, who should be able to disconnect the appliance from the mains, either with the plug, or with a switch ub accordance with the wiring rules.

•Never operate the oven if the supply cord and/ or its plug are damaged. In case of damage, call in a specialised technician trained by the manufacturer.

Installation

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The microwaves used for cooking are electro-magnetic waves. They are commonly found in ourenvironment in the form of radio-electric waves,light or infrared rays.

Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz range.Their behaviour: •They are reflected by metals.

•They travel through all other materials.

•They are absorbed by water, fat and sugarmolecules.

When food is exposed to microwaves, its moleculesbegin moving rapidly, which causes heating.

The penetration depth of waves into the food isapproximately 2.5 cm; if the food is thicker, the coreof the food will be cooked by conduction, as intraditional cooking.It is valuable to note that the microwaves triggerwithin the food a simple thermal phenomenon andthat they are not harmful to one’s health.

•Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container.

•In the case of small quantities (a sausage, acroissant, etc.) place a glass of water next to thefood.Excessive cooking times may dry out foods andcarbonise them. To avoid such incidents, never usethe same times recommended for cooking in atraditional oven.

•If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
