• WARNING: If the door or the
door seal is damaged, the oven
must not be used until it has been
repaired by a competent person.
• WARNING: It is hazardous for
anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or
repair operation which involves
the removal of a cover which
offers protection against exposure
to microwave energy.
• WARNING: Liquids and other
foods must not be heated in
sealed containers since they are
liable to explode.
• WARNING: During use the
appliance and its accessible parts
become very hot.
• Never touch the heating elements
during use.

of age at a safe distance if they
are not constantly supervised.
• This appliance may be used by
children aged at least 8 and by
people of reduced physical and
mental capacity, or lacking in
experience in the use of electrical
appliances, as long they are
supervised or instructed by adults
who are responsible for their
safety.
• Children must never play with the
appliance.
• The appliance must never be
cleaned by unsupervised children.
• Switch off the appliance
immediately after use.
• If smoke is emitted, switch off or
unplug the appliance and keep
the door closed in order to stifle
any flames.
• Never attempt to extinguish a
flame or fire with water.
• Have qualified personnel carry
out installation and assistance
interventions according to the
standards in force.
• Do not modify this appliance.
• Do not insert pointed metal
objects (cutlery or utensils) into the
slots in the appliance.
38
Instructions
• Do not try to repair the appliance
yourself or without the intervention
of a qualified technician.
• If the power supply cable is
damaged, contact technical
support immediately and they will
replace it.
Risk of damaging the appliance
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents on glass parts (e.g.
powder products, stain removers
and metallic sponges).
• Use wooden or plastic utensils.
• Do not use a steam jet to clean
the appliance.
• Do not obstruct ventilation
openings and heat dispersal slots.
• Never leave the appliance
unattended during cooking
operations where fats or oils could
be released.
• Do not use the appliance to heat
rooms for any reason.

stuck in the doors.
1.2 Instructions for using
microwaves
• Check the appliance visually
during the cooking of foods in
EN
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
39
Instructions
(e.g. drying clothes, warming
slippers, sponges, wet cloths or the
like, dehydrating foods) because
they can lead to the risk of injury or
fire.
• Clean the appliance constantly
and remove any food residue.
• Do not use the microwave to dry
food.
• Do not use the microwave to heat
oils or fry.
• Do not use the appliance to heat
foods or beverages containing
alcohol.
• Baby food should not be heated
in sealed containers. Remove the
cover or the teat (in the case of
baby bottles). Always check the
preparation's temperature once
heating has completed, it should
not be too high. For an even
temperature and to avoid scalding
stir or shake the contents.
• Do not heat eggs in their shells or
whole hard boiled eggs; they may
explode even after the heating
process has completed.
• Before cooking food with a hard
skin or peel (e.g. potatoes, apples,
etc.) it is necessary to puncture the
skin.
• Do not heat food contained within
food packages.
• Do not use the microwave
functions when the oven is empty.
• Use cookware and utensils that
are suitable for use in a
microwave oven.
• Do not use aluminium containers
to cook food.

however recommended for
pacemaker wearers to maintain a
minimum distance of 20-30cm
between the microwave when it is

when the indicator light is flashing, it
indicates that the oven is heating up to
reach the set temperature. Once the
temperature has been reached, the
thermostat light remains lit until the oven is
switched off.

2.3 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 oven 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 activated
2.4 Microwaves
The appliance is equipped with a
microwave generator called a magnetron.
The microwaves generated are evenly
emitted into the oven compartment 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
leads to 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 Materials suitable
for microwaves).

Danger of burns
• Keep the oven door closed during
cooking.
• Protect your hands wearing heat
resistant gloves when moving food
inside the oven.
• Do not touch the heating elements inside
the oven.
• Do not pour water directly onto very hot
trays.
• Do not allow children to get near the
oven when it is in operation.
High temperature inside the oven
during use
Danger of fire or explosion
• Do not spray any spray products near
the oven.
• Do not use or leave flammable materials
near the oven.
• Do not use plastic kitchenware to cook
food (except with the microwave
function).
• Do not put sealed tins or containers in
the oven.
• Do not leave the oven unattended
during cooking operations where fats or
oils could be released.
• Remove all trays and racks which are
not required during cooking.
Improper use
Risk of damage to enamelled
surfaces
• Do not cover the bottom of the oven
cavity with aluminium or tin foil sheets.
• If you wish to use greaseproof paper,
place it so that it will not interfere with the
hot air circulation inside the oven.
• Do not bang or drag cookware over the
glazed bottom of the oven
compartment.
• Do not pour water directly onto very hot
trays.
Materials suitable for microwaves
In general, in order for the food to be
reached, the materials used for microwave
cooking must be transparent to microwave
energy.
• Plastic* (microwave safe): containers,
cling film (must not come into contact with
the food during cooking).
*only if heat-resistant.
46
Use
Materials to avoid :
• Metal (generates sparks/arcing):
aluminium foil and trays, metal dishes
and utensils, freezer bag twist ties.
• Wood.
• Crystal glasses.
• Paper (risk of fire).
• Expanded polystyrene containers
(possible contamination of foodstuffs).
Testing dishes
Dishes must be without metal
decorations.
The microwave function can be
used without any food inside the
oven only for this test.
To check whether or not cookware is
suitable for use with microwave cooking
carry out this simple test:
1. Remove all accessories from the oven
compartment.
2. Place the cookware to be tested into the
oven compartment.
3. Select the maximum power level (e.g.
1000W).
4. Set a cooking time of 30 seconds.
5. Start cooking.
Unsuitable cookware
Risk of damages to the appliance
• If there is crackling or if sparks are
emitted from the cookware then
immediately terminate the test. In this
instance the cookware is not suitable for
microwave cooking.
6. At the end of the test the cookware must
be either cold or slightly warm. If the
cookware is hot then it should be
considered as unsuitable for microwave
use.
3.2 First use
1. Remove any protective film from the
outside or inside of the appliance,
including accessories.
2. Remove any labels (apart from the
technical data plate) from the
accessories and from the oven cavity.
3. Remove and wash all the appliance
accessories (see 4 Cleaning and
maintenance).
4. Heat the empty oven at maximum
temperature (using the traditional
functions) so as to remove any
manufacturing residues.
