INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new microwave oven, please
read through these instructions carefully before using it for
the first time. Take particular note of the safety precautions.
We also recommend that you keep the instructions for future
reference, so that you can remind yourself of the functions of
the microwave oven.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General
•
The microwave oven may only be used for its original
purpose, i.e. for preparing food for domestic purposes.
•
The microwave oven is for indoor use only.
•
Always follow the instructions in the "Tips for food
preparation" and "Using utensils when preparing food"
sections.
•
Do not switch the microwave oven on when it is empty.
In order for the microwave oven to be able to absorb
microwaves, there must be something in it (food),
otherwise it may be damaged. If you would like to practise
using the various functions, place a cup of water inside
the microwave oven.
•
Do not use the microwave oven if the turning ring and
glass turntable are not installed.
•
Do not use the microwave oven if the safety locking
system is not functioning, which means that the
microwave oven could be switched on even if the door is
not closed. If the door is open, you risk being exposed to
microwave radiation.
•
Do not use the microwave oven if there are cleaning agent
residues inside it.
•
Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the
appliance when it is in use. Children must not be allowed
to use the microwave oven unless supervised by an adult.
•
On the right-hand side of the oven compartment there
is a mica plate (resembles cardboard); this must not be
removed.
•
Never try to repair the microwave oven yourself.
•
If the microwave oven, cord or plug needs to be repaired,
it should be taken to an authorised service centre.
Unauthorised repairs or modifications to the appliance will
invalidate the guarantee. Please contact the store where
you bought the device for repairs under guarantee.
Positioning the microwave
•
Do not block or cover any vent holes on the microwave
oven.
•
Do not place the microwave oven or the cord near hot
areas, for example gas rings and electric hotplates.
•
Do not remove the feet of the microwave oven.
•
This oven is designed to be freestanding. Always ensure
the vent holes on top of the cabinet are not covered. If
they are covered while the microwave oven is in use, there
is a risk of it overheating. The microwave oven cannot
then be used until it has cooled down.
Using the microwave oven
•
Do not use the microwave oven if the cord or plug is
damaged, if it is not functioning properly, or if it has been
damaged by a heavy impact or similar.
•
When using combination cooking the microwave oven can
get very hot.
•
Never cook food directly on the glass turntable; always
use a suitable container.

Fire hazard!
To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven compartment,
please note the following points:
•
Do not cook food for too long or at too high a
temperature, and do not leave the microwave oven
unattended if paper, plastic or other flammable materials
have been used in the microwave oven with a view to
reducing cooking times.
•
Metal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can
cause sparks in the microwave oven and must therefore
be removed.
•
Never heat oil or fat in the microwave oven.
•
If materials in the microwave oven catch fire, leave the
door closed. Switch the microwave oven off immediately,
and remove the plug from the wall socket.

PREPARING THE MICROWAVE OVEN
Each individual microwave oven is checked at the factory, but
for safety's sake, after unpacking the oven, you should check
carefully that the microwave oven has not been damaged
during transport. Check whether there is any visible damage
(e.g. in the form of dents or similar), that the oven door closes
properly, and that the hinges are in order. If it appears that the
microwave oven has been damaged, you must contact the
shop where you bought it, and do not use it until it has been
checked by an authorised specialist.
Before using the microwave oven, you should check that you
have removed all packaging from it both inside and outside.
Positioning the microwave
The microwave oven must stand on a flat surface capable of
bearing its weight (20 kg). There must be a clearance of at least
7.5 cm at the rear of the microwave oven, 30 cm above the
oven and 7.5 cm on one side to ensure sufficient ventilation;
there must be nothing at all on the other side.
