PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL

THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!

THE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food

in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.

IF YOU PRACTICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass

of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged.

DO NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.

REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or

plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.

DEEP-FRYING

DO NOT USE YOUR APPLIANCE FOR DEEP-FRYING, BECAUSE

THE OIL TEMPERATURE CANNOT BE CONTROLLED.

USE HOT PADS OR OVEN

MITTS to prevent burns, when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking.

LIQUIDS

E.G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. Overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur

without evidence of bubbling.

This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the

following steps should be taken:

1.Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

2.Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and let the teaspoon remain in the container.

3.After heating, allow standing for a short time, stirring again before carefully removing the container from the oven.

CAREFUL

DO NOT USE THE MICROWAVE FUNCTION when cook-

ing or reheating food that contains alcohol.

AFTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a

baby bottle or in a baby food jar, always stir and check the temperature before serving.

This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.

Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!

ACCESSORIES

GENERAL

THERE ARE a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use.

ENSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof

and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking.

LEVEL INDICATOR

WHEN SOME FUNCTIONS ARE SELECTED, the level in-

dicators will flash and lit. First the levels possible to use with this function flashes briefly and then the recommended lev-

el to use with the function is lit. In this example the lev- el 1 & 3 would flash briefly leaving the recommended level 2 lit.

BAKING PLATE

USE THE BAKING PLATE when

cooking or baking with Forced air, Conventional & Pastry.

NEVER USE IT in combination with microwaves.

GLASS DRIP TRAY

Use the Glass Drip Tray beneath the wire shelf when using the Grill

or Grill and Micro- waves in combina- tion. It may also be used as

a cooking uten- sil or as a baking plate when using Forced Air, Conventional & Pastry combined with Microwaves.

The Glass Drip Tray is used to collect the dripping juices and

food particles that otherwise

would stain and soil the interior of the oven.

ALWAYS USE THE GLASS DRIP TRAY when using mi-

crowaves. It shall be placed on shelf level 1. Avoid placing vessels directly on the oven bottom.

WIRE SHELF

USE THE WIRE SHELF with all

cooking methods, except when using the Microwave function

only. The Wire shelf al- lows hot air circulation

around the food and can be placed with the high end up or down to adjust the distance from the grill element. When you put food directly on the Wire shelf, place the Glass drip tray under it. It may also be used with Forced Air, Conventional, Pastry . It may also be used when you combine these functions with Microwaves.

START PROTECTION / CHILD LOCK

MINUTE AFTER the oven has returned to “stand by mode“. (The oven is in “stand by” when the 24-hour clock is displayed or if the clock has not been set, when the display is blank).

DONENESS

DONENESS IS AVAILABLE IN THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS: AUTO REHEAT,

ASSISTED MODE

IN THE ABOVE functions, you have the possibility to personally control the end result through the Adjust doneness feature. This feature enables you to achieve higher or lower end temperature compared to the default standard setting.

	DONENESS
LEVEL	EFFECT
DONENESS +2	YIELDS HIGHEST END TEMPERATURE
DONENESS +1	YIELDS HIGHER END TEMPERATURE
DONENESS 0	DEFAULT STANDARD SETTING
DONENESS -1	YIELDS LOWER END TEMPERATURE
DONENESS -2	YIELDS LOWEST END TEMPERATURE

WHEN USING one of these functions the oven chooses the default standard setting. This setting normally gives you the best result. But if the food you heated became too warm to eat at once, you can easily adjust this before you use that function the next time. This is done by selecting a Doneness level with the adjust knob right after you have pressed the Start button.

NOTE:

THE DONENESS can only be set or altered during the first 20 seconds of operation.
