Positioning the unit

● Always place the microwave oven on a stable, level and heat-resistant surface, ensuring that it is protected from any heat source or excessive humidity.

- Do not operate the appliance outdoors.

Sufficient ventilation must be ensured at all times. Do not place any objects on the unit, and make sure that the following minimum distances from any wall or other object are maintained:

One side: 7.5 cm; other side unobstructed

Rear: 7.5 cm

Top: 30.0 cm

The feet on the base of the unit must not be removed.

The unit must not be installed inside a cupboard; when positioning the unit, also ensure that it is not placed directly underneath a cupboard or any other similar object.

Connection to the mains supply

The appliance should only be connected to an earthed socket installed in accordance with the regulations. Make sure that the supply voltage corresponds with the voltage marked on the rating label. This product complies with all binding CE labelling directives.

Before using for the first time

- Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials. All these materials are suitable for recycling.

- Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from children, as they are a potential source of danger e.g. from suffocation.

- After unpacking, and every time before connecting the unit to the power supply, check the unit and its power cord carefully for any signs of damage. Also ensure that the door, including the inspection window, door seals and locks, are not damaged or bent and that it closes firmly against the support. This is important to ensure that no microwave energy is allowed to escape during operation. For the same reason, the entire casing as well as the inside of the oven must be carefully checked.

Should the unit show any signs of damage, it must not be used under any circumstances until it has been repaired by a qualified technician.

- Do not remove the protective film covering the inside of the door, nor the turntable drive unit or the grey-brown protective cover (4) next to the light on the right of the interior.

- Insert the roller ring and the glass turntable into the unit.

- Before the microwave appliance is used for the first time, let it heat up on the grill setting (without the microwave function activated) for approximately 10 minutes. This will remove the smell typically encountered when first switching on a grill. A little smoke may be emitted; this is quite normal, but ensure there is sufficient ventilation.

Note: Do not switch the unit on in the microwave function unless the food to be heated or

cooked has been placed inside the oven. Operating the appliance empty could result in damage to the unit.

Important notes

• When heating liquids in your microwave oven, the liquid may heat up beyond boiling-point without visible evidence of bubbling. It is therefore important to exercise extreme caution when handling any containers, e.g. when removing them from the oven. The risk of such over-boiling may be reduced by placing a heat-resistant glass rod in the container during the heating process.
• Eggs in their shells or whole hard-boiled eggs must not be heated up in a microwave oven, since they may explode even after the microwave heating process has finished.
• Caution: It is also highly dangerous to heat up liquids or any kind of solid food items in closed containers in the unit, since there is a real danger of explosion.
• The contents of baby bottles or glass containers with baby food must be thoroughly stirred or shaken to ensure that the temperature is evenly distributed. To avoid painful and dangerous scalding, always check the temperature before feeding a child.
• When heating or cooking food contained or wrapped in combustible materials such as plastic or paper, there is a danger of those materials igniting. It is also possible that food will dry out or even ignite if the selected cooking time is excessive. Fat or oil are also inflammable substances. It is therefore important to supervise the appliance during operation. Highly volatile or inflammable liquids such as concentrated alcohol must of course not be heated up.
• Should any smoke be noticed during operation, keep the door closed to inhibit or smother any flames. Switch the unit off immediately and remove the plug from the wall socket.
• To prevent danger of burns, a suitable oven-cloth must always be used when removing food items from the oven, since the utensils and cooking containers heat up not only during use of the grill or hot-air functions, but also during microwave operation.
• Special food thermometers (as used in conventional baking ovens) are not suitable for use with microwave ovens.

Important safety instructions

- Caution: certain types of food may tend to catch fire. Do not, under any circumstances, leave the appliance unattended when using the microwave, grill, hot-air or combination functions.

- This microwave oven is intended for the defrosting, heating and cooking of food only. No responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with.

- This appliance is not intended for use by any person with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

- Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

- Always switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the wall socket:

• before cleaning,
• in case of any malfunction.

- Caution: The exterior surfaces of the appliance (including the door) may become hot during operation. There is also a danger of steam being emitted through the ventilation slots, with a consequent risk of scalding.

• Do not allow the appliance or its power cord to touch hot surfaces or come into contact with any heat sources. Do not let the power cord hang free, and keep it away from any hot parts.
• It is important that the appliance is thoroughly cleaned at regular intervals and that any food residues are removed.

Excessive wear may otherwise be caused to the exposed surfaces and the life expectancy of the appliance considerably reduced. In addition, its safety and proper operation may also be affected.

• This appliance is a group 2 class B ISM device. Group 2 contains all ISM devices (industrial, scientific, medical) generating radio frequency energy and/or using radio frequency energy in the form of electro-magnetic radiation to process materials; it also comprises spark erosion devices. Class B specifies devices designed for domestic use, or any similar devices integrated in the general power grid supplying domestic units. - This microwave oven is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial applications. (Class B in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2)
• Caution: any maintenance or repair work requiring the removal of any microwave radiation protection cover represents a serious hazard to unqualified persons. This includes the replacement of the special power cord or an interior light bulb. The unit must not be opened, except by qualified personnel. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments. The address can be found in the appendix to this manual.

The microwave function (Group II in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2)

Electromagnetic energy is generated inside the unit, causing the molecules in the food (mainly water molecules) to oscillate and subsequently causing the food to become hot. Food with high water content will therefore heat up faster than relatively dry food. The heat is generated gradually inside the food. Any utensils, container or plates used are heated up only indirectly as a result of the food temperature.

Always use suitable kitchen utensils.

• Do not place the food directly onto the glass turntable; always use a suitable plate or cooking container. Make sure that the container does not protrude over the rim of the glass turntable.
• Metal objects are to be avoided since microwaves are reflected from metal surfaces and might not reach the food to be cooked. Any metal in the oven might also cause sparks, resulting in possible damage.
• As a general rule, cutlery or metal containers must not be used in the microwave oven. Some food wrappings contain aluminium foil or wires underneath a layer of paper and are therefore also unsuitable for use with microwave appliances.

However, should the use of aluminium foil be recommended in a recipe, ensure that the food is tightly wrapped in the foil (avoiding any air blisters). Ensure a minimum distance of 2.5 cm between the foil and the interior walls of the oven.

● Always make sure that the cooking container or plate used does not have any metal decoration, such as a gold rim, or colour containing metal particles. Lead crystal objects

are also not suitable. Always make sure that the cooking containers used are not hollow in any part (e.g. in the handles). Porous materials may have absorbed water during cleaning and are again not suitable. Cooking containers or utensils made of ‘Melamine’ plastic material absorb energy and are also unsuitable.

- Using the microwave function

• Containers made from heat-resistant glass or porcelain, however, are well suited for use in microwave appliances.
• Plastic is suitable only if it is heat-resistant up to 180° C. Cooking bags etc. should be punctured to release any high pressure during cooking.

Cooking containers especially designed for use with microwave ovens are available at most kitchenware dealers.

- Using the grill or hot-air function

• When using the grill or hot-air function, any heat-resistant containers or plates suitable for conventional ovens may be used. Do not use plastic items when the grill or hot-air function is used.
• The food to be cooked can be put directly on the grill rack, which is then placed on the glass turntable.

- Microwave/grill combination

- When using the microwave/grill combination, the microwave and grill functions are activated alternately. The containers or plates must therefore be suitable for use in a microwave as well as being heat-resistant. Because of the relatively high temperatures, plastic items must not be used. The grill rack of this unit is also suitable for use with the microwave. Make sure that container or plate used does not contain any metal parts.

Grill rack

• For grilling, the rack should be placed on its longer feet.
• When placed on its shorter feet, the rack can be used with the hot-air function, e.g. for making pizza.

Operation

General information on programming the unit

To ensure optimum results, this microwave oven uses state-of-the-art electronics.

- When any control button is pressed, the correct input is acknowledged by one beep signal.

- While a programme sequence is running, the current setting can be called up by pressing the appropriate key. E.g., if during the microwave programme the ≈ key is pressed, the display will show the selected power setting.

- A programme can be interrupted or restarted by pressing the ⏻ key.

General operating sequence

- Place the food to be heated in a suitable container. Place the container onto the turntable in the oven.

- When food is placed in the microwave, it should be covered to prevent it from drying

out. Glass or plastic covers especially designed for use with microwave appliances are available at most kitchenware dealers.

- When using the grill, hot-air or any of the combination functions, do not cover the food to be cooked. The grill rack may be put directly on the glass turntable with the food itself on the grill rack.

• Close the door and set the desired programme.
• As the programme is started, the turntable starts to rotate. During operation, the interior light remains on.
• If, during operation, the door is opened or the ⏻ key is pressed (e.g., to stir or turn the food to ensure even temperature distribution), the timer and program functions are automatically suspended. The program will automatically resume only after the door is closed again and the ⏻ key is pressed.
• Press ☐ twice to interrupt the program.
• Beep signals indicate that the pre-programmed period has elapsed; at the same time, the interior lighting switches off.
• Open the door and remove the container with the food.
• To achieve even heat distribution through the food, the container should be set aside for several minutes. – Cooking times generally depend on several factors.
• The microwaves penetrate the surface of the food. For larger pieces of food, a longer cooking time is therefore needed than for the same amount of food if cut into pieces. The food should also be evenly distributed on the plate.
• To ensure that any germs in the food are safely destroyed, the food needs to be exposed to high temperatures for a sufficiently long period.
• As a basic rule:

Half the amount - half the time recommended (for the full amount).

Double the amount - almost double the time recommended.

Setting the clock:

Once the unit has been connected to the power supply, the display shows '0:00' and an acoustic signal is heard.

6. Press ☐ to start the cooking process.

Note: Steps 2 - 3 can be omitted, if pre-heating is not required.

Grill / combination functions

The grilling process uses radiation heat to process the food. The grilling programme is suitable for cooking 'au gratin' or for grilling thin pieces of meat. The combination programmes are useful for fish, potatoes, soufflés or cooking 'au gratin'.

G-1 - 100% grill

C-1 - 55% grill, 45% microwave C-2 - 36% grill, 64% microwave

Select the desired cooking time; a maximum of 95 minutes can be pre-set. The power setting cannot be changed. As the meat needs to be turned after one side is sufficiently browned, and taken out once it is done on both sides, this process should be closely monitored.

A beep signal indicates that half the cooking time has elapsed.

1. Press ≈, until the display shows the desired function (G-1, C-1 or C-2).
2. Use the rotary control to set the required cooking time.
3. Press ☐ to start the cooking process.

Quick-programming

The most commonly used microwave time-settings can be called up simply by pressing ☐. With this function, the microwave power setting is always 100%. Each press on the key adds 30 seconds to the cooking time.

Note: the cooking process starts as soon as the key is pressed for the first time.

Example: to programme the microwave function for a cooking time of 2 minutes at 100% power.

1. Press ☐ 4 times. The display shows 2:00.

Defrost programme according to time or weight ( )

This defrosting programme is useful for defrosting food by either setting the weight of the food to be defrosted, or by directly setting the defrosting time. For delicate food we recommend defrosting on the level 'Defrosting' (see table Power settings), to ensure that the food is defrosted with an even, low temperature setting.

The indicator dEF1 represents weight-based defrosting dEF2 represents time-based defrosting.

Helpful notes:

• The defrosting process should be interrupted at regular intervals and those food portions already defrosted should be taken out; this is to ensure that food already defrosted will not take away heat from food that still requires defrosting.
• Should the food not be completely defrosted after the pre-set defrosting time has elapsed, it is advisable to limit any further defrosting times to 1-minute periods until the food is fully defrosted.
• Food stored in plastic containers or wrapped in plastic should be left standing for a while after it has been taken from the freezer. Wait until the food can be easily detached from the plastic, before it is put into the oven inside a container suitable for use with microwave ovens.
• Press ☐ once or twice. The display shows dEF1 or dEF2.
• Use the rotary control to set the weight of the food to be defrosted (between 100g and 2000g) or the desired defrosting time (between 00:05 and 95:00).
• Press ☐ to start the defrosting process.
