Safety Precautions

WARNING: ACCESSIBLE PARTS MAY BECOME HOT DURING USE. YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. WARNING: DURING USE THE APPLIANCE BECOMES HOT. CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO AVOID TOUCHING HEATING ELEMENTS INSIDE THE OVEN. TO AVOID BURNS AND SCALDS CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY. WARNING! THE OVEN CANNOT BE USED IF:

 THE DOOR IS NOT CLOSED CORRECTLY;  THE DOOR HINGES ARE DAMAGED;  THE SURFACES OF THE CONTACT BETWEEN THE DOOR AND THE OVEN

FRONT ARE DAMAGED;

 THE DOOR WINDOW GLASS IS DAMAGED;  THERE IS FREQUENT ELECTRICAL ARCING INSIDE THE OVEN EVEN

THOUGH THERE IS NO METAL OBJECT INSIDE. THE OVEN CAN ONLY BE USED AGAIN AFTER IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED BY A TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICE TECHNICIAN.

BEWARE! NEVER HEAT BABY FOODS OR DRINKS IN BOTTLES OR JARS WITH THE TEATS OR LIDS ON THEM. AFTER HEATING THE FOOD MIX OR SHAKE WELL SO THAT THE HEAT IS SPREAD EVENLY. CHECK THE FOOD TEMPERATURE BEFORE FEEDING THIS TO THE CHILD. DANGER OF BURNING!

TAKE CARE WHEN HEATING LIQUIDS! WHEN LIQUIDS (WATER, COFFEE, TEA, MILK, ETC.) ARE NEARLY AT BOILING POINT INSIDE THE OVEN AND ARE TAKEN OUT SUDDENLY, THEY MAY SPURT OUT OF THEIR CONTAINERS. DANGER OF INJURIES AND BURNS! TO AVOID THAT TYPE OF SITUATION WHEN HEATING LIQUIDS, PUT A TEASPOON OR GLASS ROD INSIDE THE CONTAINER.

TO AVOID FOOD OVERHEATING OR BURNING IT IS VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO SELECT LONG TIME PERIODS OR POWER LEVELS THAT ARE TOO HIGH WHEN HEATING SMALL QUANTITIES OF FOOD. FOR EXAMPLE, A BREAD ROLL CAN BURN AFTER 3 MINUTES IF THE POWER SELECTED IS TOO HIGH. FOR TOASTING, USE JUST THE GRILLING FUNCTION AND WATCH THE OVEN ALL THE TIME. IT YOU USE A COMBINED FUNCTION TO TOAST BREAD IT WILL CATCH FIRE IN A VERY SHORT TIME.

THIS OVEN IS EXCLUSIVELY FOR DOMESTIC USE! USE THE OVEN ONLY FOR PREPARING MEALS.

AVOID DAMAGING THE OVEN OR OTHER DANGEROUS SITUATIONS BY FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS:

 Do not switch on the oven without the turntable support, the turntable

ring and the respective plate being in place.  Never switch on the microwave when it is empty. If there is no food

inside there may be an electrical overcharge and the oven could be

damaged. RISK OF DAMAGE!

 Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation openings.

GB-IE

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.

CLEANING:

 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.

 Please follow the instructions regarding cleaning in the section “Oven

Cleaning and Maintenance”.

REPAIRS:

 Warning – Microwaves! The outer protection of the oven must not

be removed. It is dangerous for anyone not authorised by the

manufacturer to carry out any kind of repair or maintenance work.  If the power cable is damaged it should be substituted by the

manufacturer, aut horised agents or technicians qualified for this task

in order to avoid dangerous situations. Furthermore, special tools are

required for this task.  Repair and maintenance work, especially of current carrying parts, can

only be carried out by technicians authorised by the manufacturer.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for injury or damage caused by failure to comply with the above regulations or deriving from tampering with even just one part of the appliance and the use of non-original spare parts.

7 USING THE OVEN

7.1 Precautions and General Advice

When the oven and grill are used for the first time, they should be heated to the maximum temperature for long enough to burn off any oily residues left by the manufacturing process, which might contaminate foods with unpleasant smells.

Oven accessories which may come into contact with foods are made from materials compliant with directive 89/109/EEC of 21/12/88 and national relevant regulations.

To prevent excessive amounts of condensation from forming on the internal glass, food should not be left inside the oven for too long after cooking.

7.2 Operating settings

This product is programmed to provide 3 operating settings, which can be\modified by pressing PT2. Standby setting: activated as soon as the current time has been confirmed, with DSP1 on and showing the current time. ON setting: from the standby setting, press PT2 once. All the displays and knobs light up. OFF setting: from the ON setting, press PT2 once.

Only the symbol on DSP1 remains on.

The heating system is not activated immediately in any of these functions, in order to improve operator safety.

7.3 First Use

At first use, or after a power failure, the oven's left hand-display, DSP1, will show a flashing symbol. To start any cooking operation, the current

time must be set.

7.3.1 Setting the current time

To set the current time, turn PT1 to the right and left to increase or decrease the hours. Press it once to move on to setting the minutes. Turn it the right and left to increase or decrease the minutes and press it to set

the current time. The symbol will appear on the display, which will stop flashing.

7.3.2 Setting the current time

It might become necessary to change the current time, for example at the switch from summer to winter time. To do this, starting from the standby setting (see point “7.2 Operating settings”) keep PT1 pressed for a few seconds until the figures on DSP1 flash. Now repeat the operations described in point “7.3.1 Setting the current time”.
