CLEANING:
Safety Precautions
Use only dishes suitable for microwaves. Before using dishes and
containers in the microwave, check that these are suitable (see the
section on types of dishes).
Never remove the mica cover on the ceiling of the oven
interior! This cover stops fat and pieces of food damaging the
microwave generator.
Do not keep any inflammable object inside the oven as it may
burn if the oven is switched on.
Do not use the oven as a pantry. Eggs with their shells and whole boiled eggs must not be heated
in microwave ovens because they may explode.
Do not use the oven for frying as it is impossible to control the
temperature of oil heated by microwaves.
To avoid being burnt, always use oven gloves for handling dishes
and containers and touching the oven.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door. This may damage the
oven, especially in the hinge zone. The door can bear a maximum
weight of 8 kg.
The turntable and the grills can bear a maximum load of 8 kg. To
avoid damaging the oven, do not exceed this load.
Warning! Your microwave oven must be cleaned regularly. All food
remains must be removed (see section on Oven Cleaning). If the
microwave oven is not kept clean its surface may deteriorate and
this may shorten the oven’s working life and could even result
in a dangerous situation.
The door contact surfaces (the front of the cavity and the inside part
of the doors) must be kept very clean in order to ensure the oven
functions correctly.
DO NOT USE HARSH ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SHARP METAL
SCRAPERS TO CLEAN THE OVEN DOOR GLASS SINCE THEY
CAN SCRATCH THE SURFACE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN
SHATTERING OF THE GLASS.

9 RECOMMENDED COOKING TABLES
9.1 Cooking with Microwaves
Warning! Read the section “Safety Precautions” before cooking with your microwave.
Follow these recommendations when cooking with microwaves:
Before heating or cooking foods with peel or skin (e.g. apples,
tomatoes, potatoes, sausages) prick them so that they do n ot 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 (see the section on types of ovenware).
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 bur n. The oven and the container may be damaged in such a situation. You should therefore set just the cooking time necessary and you must keep a close eye on the cooking process.
It is not possible to heat large quantities of oil (frying) in the
microwave.
Remove pre-cooked food from the containers they come in
since these are not always heat resistant. Follow the food manufacturer’s instructions.
If you have several container s, such as cups, for example, set
them out uniformly on the turntable plate.
Do not close plastic bags with metal clips. Use plastic clips
instead. Prick the bags several times so that the steam can escape easily.
When heating or cooking foods, check that they reach at least a
temperature of 70°C.
During cooking, steam may form on the oven door window and
may start to drip. This situation is normal and may be more noticeable if the room temperature is low. The oven’s safe working 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
16
EN
Instructions for the User
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 th e power levels. Cooking with microwaves...
1. The greater the amount of food, the longer the cooking time. Keep in mind that:
Double th e quantity » double the time  Half the quantity » half the time
2. The lower the temperature, the longer the cooking time.
3. Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more quickly.
4. Cooking will be more uniform if the food is evenly distributed on the ceramic base. If you put dense foods on the outside part o f the plate and less dense ones on the centre of the plate, you can heat up different types of food simultaneously.
5. You can open the oven door at any time. When yo u do this the oven switches off automatically. The microwave will only start working again when you close the door and press the start key.
6. Foods that are covered require less cooking time and retain their characteristics better. The lids used must let microwaves pass through and have small holes that allow steam to escape

9.2 Defrosting with Microwaves
General instructions for defrosting
1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are appropriate for microwaves (china, glass, suitable plastic).
2. The defrost function by weight and the ta bles refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the quantity and thickness of the food. When freezing food keep the defrosting process in mind. Distribute the food evenly in the container.
4. Distribute the food as best as possible inside the oven. The thickest parts of fish or chicken drumsticks should be turned towards the outside. You can protect the most delicate parts of food with pieces of aluminium foil. Important: The aluminium foil must not come into contact with the oven cavity interior as this can cause electrical arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be turned several times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as possible since narrow and thin portions defrost more quickly than the thicker and broader parts.
7. Fat-rich foods such as butter, cream cheese and cream should not be completely defrosted. If they are kept at room temperature they will be ready to be served in a few minutes. With ultra-frozen cream, if you find small pieces of ice in it, you should mix these in before serving.
8. Place poultry on an upturned plate so that the meat juices can run of f more easily.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so that it does not becom e too dry.
10. Turn the food whenever the oven lets out a beep and the DSP1 displays the word:
11. Remove frozen food from its wrapping and do not forget to take off any metal twist-tags. For containers that are used to keep frozen food in the freezer and which can also be used for heating and cooking, al l you need to do is take off the lid. For all other cases you should put the food into containers that are suitable for microwave use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting, principally that from poultry, should be discarded. In no event should such liquids be allowed to come into contact with other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting function you need to allow for standing time until the food is completely defrosted.

9.3 Cooking with the Grill Element
For good results with the grill, use the rack supplied with the oven. Fit the rack in such a way that it doesn’t come into contact with the metal surfaces of the oven cavity since if it does there is a danger of electric arcing which may damage the oven. IMPORTANT POINTS:
1. When the grill is used for the first time there will be some smoke and a smell coming from the oils used during oven manufacture.
2. The oven door window becomes very hot when the grill is working. Keep children away.
3. When the grill is operating, the cavity walls and the grid iron become very hot. You should use oven gloves.
4. If 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.
5. Important! When food is to be grilled or cooked in containers you must check that the container in question is suitable for micro wave use. Se e the section on types of ovenware!
6. When the grill is used it is possible that s ome 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 operating fault.
7. After you have finished cooking, clean the interior an d the accessories so that cooking remains do not become encrusted.

Instructions for the User
Sausages will not burst if you prick them with a fork before grilling. After half the grilling time has passed, check on how the cooking is goin g and, if necessary, turn the food over. The grill is especially suitable for cooking thin portio ns of meat and fish. Thin portions of meat only need to be turned once, but thicker portions should be turned several times. Heat up the grill beforehand for 2 minutes.
9.3.2 Microwaves + Grill Element
The microwave + grill function is ideal for cooking quickly and, at the same time, browning foods. Furthermore, you can also grill and cook cheese covered food. The microwave and the grill work simultaneously. The microwave cooks and the grill toasts.

EN
Instructions for the User
Warning: the cavity walls and the browning plate become very hot. Care
should be taken to avoid touching heating elements, cavity walls or the browning plate. The use of oven gloves is highly rec ommended to avoid burns.
9.5 What kind of ovenware can be used?
9.5.1 Microwaves function
For the microwave function, keep in mind that microwaves are reflected by metal surfaces. Glass, china, clay, plastic, and paper let microwaves pass. For this reason, metal pans and dishes or containers with metal parts or decorations cannot be used in the microwave. Glass ware and clay with metallic decoration or content (e.g. lead crystal) cannot be used in microwave ovens. The ideal materials for use in microwave ovens are glass, refractory china or clay, or heat resistant plastic. Very thin, fragile glass or china should only be used for short period of times (e.g. heating). Hot food transmits heat to the dishes which can become very hot. You should, therefore, always use an oven glove! To test ovenware, put the item you want to use in the oven for 20 seconds at maximum microwave power. After that time, if it is cold or just slightly warm, it is suitable to use. However, if it heats up a lot or causes electric arcing it is not suitable for microwave use.
9.5.2 Grill Element
In the case of the grill function, the ovenware must be resistant to temperature of at least 300°C. Plastic dishes are not suitable for use in the grill.
9.5.3 Combination functions
In the combination functions (microwaves + conventional heating elements), the ovenware used must be suitable for use in both the microwave and the grill.
9.5.4 Aluminium containers and foil
Pre-cooked food in aluminium containers or in aluminium foil can be put i n the microwave if the following aspects are respected:
Keep in mind the manufacturer’s recommendations written on
the packaging.
The aluminium containers cannot be more than 3 cm high or
come in contact with the cavity walls (minimum distance 3 cm). Any aluminium lid or top must be removed.
Put the aluminium container directly on top of the turntable
plate. If you use the grid iron, put the container on a chi na plate. Never put the container directly on the grid iron!
The cooking ti me is longer because the microwaves only enter
the food from the top. If you have any doubts, it is best to us e only dishes suitable for microwave use.
Aluminium foil can be used to reflect microwaves during the
defrosting process. Delicate food, such as poultry or minced
22
EN
Instructions for the User
meat, can be protected from excessive heat by covering the respective extremities/edges.
Important: aluminium foil cannot come into contact with the
cavity walls since this may cause electrical arcing.
9.5.5 Lids
We recommend you use glass or plastic lids or cling film since:
1. This will stop excessive evaporation (mainly during very long cooking times);
2. The cooking times are shorter;
3. The food does not become dry;
4. The aroma is preserved. The lid should have holes or openings so that no pressure develops. Plastic bags must also be opened. Baby feeding bottles or jars with baby food and similar containers can only be heated without their tops / lids otherwise they can burst.
The table below gives you a general idea of what type of ovenware is suitable for each situation.

10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any operations, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Take the plug out of the socket or switch off the oven’s
ower circuit.
Warning! Never use a jet of steam for cleaning the inside of the oven.
Warning! Your microwave oven should be cleaned regularly, with all foo
remains being removed. If the microwave is not kept clean its surfaces may deteriorate, reducing the oven’s working life and possibly res ulting in a dangerous situation.
10.1 Cleaning stainless steel
To keep stainless steel in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after each use of the oven, after allowing it to cool.
10.2 Routine daily cleaning
When cleaning and caring for stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products which do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Instructions for use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe over the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
10.3 Food stains or spills
Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers which will damage the surface. Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. Do not allow spills of foods with high sugar content (e.g. jam) to dry inside the oven. If they dry for too long, they might damage the enamel coating of the inside of the oven.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaner s or sharp metal scraper s to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
10.4 Cleaning the oven cavity
Cleaning is the only maintenance normally required. After each time the oven is used, clean the inside walls with a damp cloth since this is the easiest way to remove splashes or spots of food that may have stuck to the inside.
To remove dirt that is harder to shift, use a non-aggressive cleaning product. Do not use oven sprays or other aggressive or abrasive cleaning products.
24
EN
Instructions for the User
Always keep the door and the oven front very clean to ensure that the door opens and closes properly. Make sure water does not enter the microwave ventilation holes. Regularly take out the turntable plate and the respective support and clean the cavity base, especially after any liquid spillage.
Do not switch on the oven without the turntable and the respective support being in place.
If the oven cavity is very dirty, put a glass of water on the turntable and switch on the microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes at maximum power. The steam released will soften the dirt which can then be cleaned easily using a soft cloth. Unpleasant odours (e.g. after cooking fish) can be eliminated easily. Put a few drops of lemon juice in a cup with water. Put a spoonful of coffee in the cup to avoid the water boiling over. Heat the water for 2 to 3 minutes at maximum microwave power.
10.5 Cleaning the cavity ceiling
If the oven ceiling is dirty, the grill can be lowered to ma ke cleaning easier. To avoid the danger of burning, wait until the grill is cold before lowering it. Proceed as follows:
1. Turn the grill support by 180º (1).
2. Lower the grill gently (2). Do not use excessive force as this may cause damage.
3. After cleaning the ceiling, put the grill (2) back in its place, carrying out the previous operation. IMPORTANT WARNING: The grill heating element support (1) may fall when it is rotated. If this happens, insert the grill heating element support (1) into the slot in the ceiling of the cavity and rotate it 90º to the grill heating element support (2) position. The mica cover (3) located in the ceiling must always be kept clean. Any food remains that collect on the mica cover can cause damage or provoke sparks.
Do not use abrasive cleaning products or sharp objects. To avoid any risk, do not remove the mica cover.
The glass lamp cover (4) is located on the oven ceiling and can be removed easily for cleaning. For this you just need to unscrew it and clean it with water and dishwashing liquid.
10.6 Cleaning the accessories
Clean the accessories after each use. If they are very dirty, soak them first of all and then use a brush and sponge. The accessories can be washed in a dish washing machine. Make sure that the turntable plate and the respective support are always clean. Do not switch on the oven unless the turntable and the respective support are in place.

Instructions for the User
There are any foreign bodies between the door a nd the cavity
front.
When the oven is operating I can hear some strange noises! Check if:
There is any electrical arcing inside the oven caused by foreign
metallic objects (see section on type of ovenware).
The ovenware is touching the oven walls.  There are any loose items of cutlery or cooking tools inside the
oven.
The food doesn’t heat up or heats very slowly! Check if:
You hav e inadvertently used metal ovenware.  You hav e selected the correct operating times and power level.  The food you have put inside the oven is a larger amount or
colder than you usually put in.
The food is too hot, dried out or burnt! Check if:
You selected the correct operating time and power level.
I hear some noises after the cooking process is finished!
This is not a problem. The cooling fan keeps on working for
some time. When the temperature has dropped sufficiently, the fan will switch itself off.
The oven switches on but the interior light does not go on!
If all the functions work properly it is probable that the lamp has
blown. You can keep on using the oven.
