dense ones on the centre of the plate, you can heat up different types of
food simultaneously.

switches off automatically. The microwave will only start working again
when you close the door and press the start key.

Instructions for the User
When heating or cooking foods, check that they reach at least a
temperature of 158°F.
During cooking, steam may form on the oven door window and
may start to drip. This situation is normal and may be more
noticeable if the room temperature is low. The oven's safe
working is not affected by this. After you have finished cooking,
clean up the water coming from the condensation
When heating liquids, use containers with a wide opening, so
that the steam can evaporate easily.
