INSTALLATION BEFORE CONNECTION

• Check whether your oven has suffered any damage during transport (deformed door or door seal, etc.). If you see any signs of damage, contact your dealer before use. • Verify the power voltage. If there is a PERMANENT undervoltage (200-210 volts), consult your electrical installer.

• The appliance should be installed at a distance of 85 cm above floor. • Place the oven on a flat and horizontal surface, away from any source of heat or steam. To ensure the stability of the microwave oven, the front left foot is adjustable (5 positions). Turn it to raise or lower the appliance. •Make sure that air may circulate freely around the oven.

Leave sufficient space around the oven :

- 5 cm between the sides of the oven and any walls or objects

- 14 cm above the oven

- 10 cm behind the oven.

• Make sure that nothing obstructs the ventilation louvers at the back of the appliance.

• Make sure the electrical plug will be accessible after installation. • Do not use your appliance immediatly (wait approx. 1-2 hours) after transfer from a cold place to a warm place as condensation may cause a malfunction.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Your installation must be protected by a 16 Amp thermal fuse. • It is mandatory to use a power point with a ground terminal, connected in accordance with current safety regulations. • In your electrical installation, provide a device that is accessible to the installer, capable of separating the appliance from the mains power and whose contact opening is at least 3 mm at all of the poles. • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. 30

The Pizza dish features a special coating that absorbs microwaves through its bottom.

It radiates heat from below the food to cook or reheat it, giving it the required color and crispness while the grill browns the top.

Without preheating - by using the Pizza function you can cook and brown most frozen meals and fresh, dough-based dishes without preheating the Pizza dish. They turn out as crispy as if cooked in a traditional oven.

With preheating - the Pizza dish can be preheated using the Pizza key for a maximum of 2 minutes. Preheating is recommended to cook or brown small pieces of meat or fish and some dough-based, frozen and take-out dishes.

Take foods out of their metallic or plastic packaging before cooking or reheating them with the Pizza function.

It is advisable to program shorter cooking times and extend if necessary.

All foods with a skin or wrapping, such as potatoes and sausages, must be pierced before cooking.

Make sure pieces of meat are completely thawed out and dried off before searing with the Pizza function.

Keep an eye on the food’s coloring, just as you would with a traditional oven.

Protect your hands when taking out the dish because it can be extremely hot.

Do not serve stuffed foods (apple pastry for example) too quickly because they can be warm on the surface whereas the filling is extremely hot.

Cooking or reheating of eggs with the Pizza function is prohibited.

If you wish to cook several dishes consecutively with the Pizza function, allow the oven to cool 10 minutes between dishes for better browning.
