PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!
T
HE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without
T
food in the oven when using microwaves.
Operation in this manner is likely to damage the
appliance.
HE VENTILATION OPENINGS on the oven must not
T
be covered. Blocking the air intake or exhaust
vents may cause damage to the oven and poor
cooking results.
F YOU PRAC TICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass
I
of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged.
O NOT STORE OR USE this appliance outdoors.
D
O NOT USE this product near a kitchen sink,
D
in a wet basement, or near a swimming
pool, or similar.
O NOT USE the cavity for any storage pur-
D
poses.
URING USE THE APPLIANCE becomes hot. Care
D
should be taken to avoid touching heating
elements inside the oven.
EMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or
R
plastic bags before placing bag
in the oven.
LIQUIDS
.G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. Overheating the liq-
E
uid beyond boiling point
can occur without evidence of
bubbling. This could result in
a sudden boil over of the hot
liquid.
o prevent this possibility the following
T
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
LWAYS REFER to a micro-
A
wave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or
reheating food that contains alcohol.
FTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a baby bot-
A
tle 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.
nsure the Lid and the Teat is removed be-
E
fore heating!
DEEPFRYING
O NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for deep-fry-
D
ing, because the oil temperature
cannot be controlled.
SE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent
U
burns, when touching containers,
oven parts, and pan after cooking. Accessible parts may become hot during use, young children should be kept
away.

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
T
HERE ARE a number of accessories available on
the market. Before you buy, ensure they are
suitable for microwave use.
E
NSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof
and allow microwaves to
pass through them before
cooking.
HEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACC ESSORIES in the micro-
W
wave oven, ensure that they do not come in
contact with the interior of the oven.
This is especially important with accessories made of metal or metal parts.
F ACCESSOR IES CONTAIN ING METAL comes in contact
I
with the oven interior, while the oven is in operation, sparking can occur and the oven could
be damaged.
A
LWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn
freely before starting the oven. If the turntable
isn’t able to turn freely you should use a smaller vessel or the TurnTable stop function (see
Large vessels).
TURNTABLE SUPPORT
USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
Glass turntable. Never put any
other utensils on the turntable
support.
Fit the turntable support in the oven.
GLASS TURNTABLE
SE THE GLASS TURNTABLE with all cooking meth-
U
ods. It collects the dripping
juices and food particles that
otherwise would stain and soil
the interior of the oven.
Place the Glass turntable on the turntable
support.
LARGE VESSELS
USE THE TURNTABLE STOP button when cooking
with vessels that is so large that they can not
turn freely in the oven. This function
can only be used when cooking with
microwaves and Gratin function.
The button will not work with other
functions.
BOIL AND STEAM ACCESSORY
SE THE ACCESSORY WITH THE
U
STRAINER in place for foods such
as sh, vegetables and potatoes.
ALWAYS PLACE the accessory on
the Glass Turntable.
WIRE RACK only available in specific models
SE THE HIGH WIRE RACK when cooking
U
with grill.
USE THE LOW WIRE RACK when cooking with forced air or combi fan.
CRISPPLATE only available in specific models
LACE THE FOOD DIRECTLY ON THE CRISP-PLATE.
P
Always use the Glass turntable as support when using the Crisp-plate.
DO NOT PLACE ANY UTENSILS on
the Crisp-plate since it will quickly
become very hot and is likely to cause
damage to the utensil.
THE CRISP-PLATE may be preheated before use
(max. 3 min.).
CRISP HANDLEonly available in
specific models
USE THE SUPPLIED SPECIAL CRISP HANDLE to remove the hot Crisp plate from the oven.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
CLEANING IS THE ONLY MAINTENANCE normally
required. It must be carried out with the
microwave oven disconnected.
AILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN in a clean condition
F
could lead to deterioration of the surface that
could adversely a ect the life of the appliance
and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
DO NOT USE METAL SCOURING PADS ,
ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, steel-
wool pads, gritty washcloths, etc. which can
damage the control panel, and the interior and exterior oven
surfaces. Use a cloth with a mild detergent
or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner.
Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel.
DO NOT SPRAY directly on the oven.
AT REGULAR INTERVALS, especially if
spill overs have occurred,
remove the turntable, the
turntable support and wipe the
base of the oven clean.
THIS OVEN IS DESIGNED to operate with the
turntable in place.
DO NOT operate the microwave oven
when the turntable has been removed
for cleaning.
USE A SOFT AND DAMP CLOTH with mild detergent
to clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of
the door and the door opening.
DO NOT ALLOW GREASE or food particles to
build up around the door.
FOR STUBBORN STAINS, boil a cup of water in the
oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the
marks.
ADDING SOME LEMON JUICE to a cup of water, placing this on the turntable and boiling for a few
minutes can eliminate odors inside the oven.
DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANING APPLIANCES when
cleaning your microwave oven.
THE OVEN should be cleaned regularly and
any food deposits removed.
HE GRILL ELEMENT does not need cleaning since
T
the intense heat will burn o any splashes, but
the ceiling beneath it may need regular
cleaning. This should be done with
damp cloth with mild detergent
a soft and
.
If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be
run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any
splashes, in order to reduce the risk of fire.
