PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!
T
HE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food
T
in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.
HE VENTILATION OPENINGS on the oven must not be
T
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.
DO NOT STORE or use this appliance outdoors.
O NOT USE this product near a kitchen sink, in
D
a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar.
O NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.
D
EMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or
R
plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
LIQUIDS
G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. Overheating the liquid
E.
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.
FTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a
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!
DEEPFRYING
D
O NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven 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. Accessi­ble parts may become hot during use, young children should be kept away.

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
THERE ARE a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use.
NSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof
E
and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking.
WHEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACCE SSORIES in the micro­wave 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.
I
F ACCESSOR IES CONTAIN ING METAL comes in contact
with the oven interior, while the oven is in op­eration, sparking can occur and the oven could be damaged.
LWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn
A
freely before starting the oven. If the turntable isn’t able to turn freely you should use a small­er vessel.
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 only. The button will not work with other functions.
TURNTABLE SUPPORT
SE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
U
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.
WIRE RACK USE THE WIRE RACK with Grill func- tions.
CRISP HANDLE
USE THE SUPPLIED SPECIAL CRISP
HANDLE to remove the hot Crisp
plate from the oven.
CRISPPLATE
P
LACE THE FOOD DIRECTLY ON THE CRISP-PL ATE.
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.). Always use the Crisp function when preheating the crisp-plate.
STEAMER
USE THE STEAMER WITH THE STRAIN-
ER in place for such foods as  sh,
vegetables and potatoes. ALWAYS PLACE the steamer on the Glass Turntable.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
CLEANING IS THE ONLY MAINTENANCE normally re- quired. It must be carried out with the micro­wave oven disconnected. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely a ect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
D
O 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.
D
O 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 a soft and damp
cloth with mild detergent.
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.

CAREFUL CLEANING: THE CRISP-PLATE should be cleaned in mild, de­tergent water. Heavily soiled areas can be cleaned with a scouring cloth and a mild cleanser.
LWAYS let the crisp-plate
A
cool o before cleaning.
D
O NOT immerse or rinse with water while
the crisp-plate is hot. Quick cooling may damage it.
O NOT USE STEEL-WOOL PAD S. This will
D

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
IF THE OVEN DOES NOT WORK , do not make a service call until you have made the following checks:
 The Turntable and turntable support is in
place.
 The Plug is properly inserted in the wall
socket.
 The Door is properly closed.  Check your Fuses and ensure that there is
power available.
 Check that the oven has ample ventilation.  Wait for 10 minutes, then try to operate the
