c) Operating Principle

The microwaves used for cooking are electromagnetic waves.

They exist normally in our environment as radio-electric waves, light or even infra-red radiation. Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz band.

e They are reflected by metals e _ They pass through all other materials.

°< _ They are absorbed by molecules of water, fat and sugar.

When food is exposed to microwaves rapid agitation of the molecules occurs which causes heating.

The penetration depth of the waves into the food is about 2.5 cm. If the food is thicker, cooking through the food will take place by conduction as in traditional cooking.

d) Environmental Protection

It is good to know that microwaves cause a simple heat phenomenon inside food and that they are not harmful to health.

At the end of its life this product must not be discarded with household waste. It must be taken to a recycling centre or to your dealer. This makes it possible to avoid consequences resulting from inappropriate disposal that are harmful to health and the

= environment, and to recycle materials to save energy and significant resources.

A logo appears on the product reminding you not to discard it with household waste. For further information, contact your council offices or the shop where you bought this product.

Your machine also contains many recyclable materials. It is therefore marked by this logo to show you that used machines should not be mixed with other waste.

The recycling of appliances organised by your manufacturer will therefore be carried out in the best possible conditions, in compliance with the European directive in force concerning electrical and electronic equipment waste. Contact your Town Hall or your retailer to find out where the points for the collection of used machines nearest to your home are. Thank you for helping to protect the environment.

2) INSTALLATION OF YOUR MACHINE

- the mains leads are in good condition.

- the diameter of the wires complies with the installation rules. - your installation is fitted with 16 ampere heat protection.

FN If in doubt please consult your electrician.

The electrical connection must be carried out before placing the machine in its final position.

Electrical safety must be ensured by a correct connection. During maintenance operations the machine must be unplugged from the mains and the fuses must be cut off or removed.

The machine must be connected with a standardised power cable with three 1.5 mm? conductors (1 live + 1 neutral + 1 earth) which must be connected to the 220-240 V 50 Hz single phase mains with a standardised electric socket CEI 60083 fitted with two pins and one earth in compliance with the installation rules in force.

The Earth wire (green/yellow) is connected to the machine's terminal and must be connected to the earth of your electrical installation.

The Neutral (blue) wire must be connected to the mains neutral. The Live wire (red, black, or brown) must be connected to the mains live.

The plug or any other electrical cut-off device must remain immediately accessible to allow an emergency stop.

In your electrical installation also provide an accessible device which must be able to separate the machine from the mains, the contact opening of which is at least 3 mm on all poles.

If the oven has any type of damage, unplug it or disconnect it from the mains.
