1.2 Instructions for using microwaves
• Check the appliance visually
during the cooking of foods in plastic or paper containers.
Improper use
Danger of explosion
• When using the microwave to
heat or reheat liquids, the boiling process may be delayed – boiling temperature can be reached without the formation of the usual "rolling boil". This delayed boiling and consequent superheating of the liquid can generate an explosion inside the appliance, or sudden boiling over of the superheated liquid can occur when removing the container from the appliance. To avoid these dangers, it is necessary to insert the supplied boiling rod (or a heat-resistant plastic spoon) in the container while heating.
• Use the microwave only for the
preparation of food for consumption. Other types of applications are strictly forbidden

2.3 Microwaves
The appliance is equipped with a microwave generator called a magnetron. The microwaves generated are evenly emitted into the oven cavity in order to reach the food and heat it.
Heating takes place through the process of friction between the molecules contained within the food (mainly water molecules), with the consequent generation of heat.
The heat generated directly inside the food allows defrosting, re-heating or cooking in a shorter length of time compared to traditional cooking.
The use of suitable containers for microwave cooking allows the microwaves to reach the food in a uniform manner (see
3.2 Materials suitable for microwaves).
2.4 Other parts
Shelves
The appliance features shelves to position trays and racks at different heights. The insertion heights are indicated from the bottom upwards (see 2.1 General Description).
Cooling fan
The fan cools the appliance and comes into operation during cooking.
The fan causes a steady outflow of air from above the door which may continue for a brief period of time even after the appliance has been turned off.
Interior lighting
The appliance’s interior lighting comes on:
• When the door is opened.
• When any function is started, apart from
the ECO and Vapo r C lea n
functions.
• When the temperature knob is turned briefly to the right (manual activation and deactivation).
When the door is open, it is not possible to turn the internal lighting off.
