English Clean the inside of the oven, door seals and door seal areas regularly. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to the oven walls, door seals and door seal areas wipe off with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if they get very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasive is not recommended. DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS. When using the GRILL or COMBINATION mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally, it may start to “smoke” during use. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of surfaces that could affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. The accessible parts may become hot in combination use. Young children should be kept away. Children less than 8 years of age should only use the oven under continuous adult supervision due to the temperatures generated. A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning. Do not use harsh, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass. Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during COMBINATION and GRILLING, take care when opening or closing the door and when inserting or removing food and accessories. This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system. Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.4 5

The oven has heaters situated in the top of the oven. After using the GRILL and COMBINATION function, care should be taken to avoid touching the inside surfaces of the oven as these will be very hot. Care should be taken to avoid the heating element inside the oven. The microwave oven is intended for heating food and beverages only. Take care when heating foods low in moisture, e.g. bread items, chocolate, biscuits and pastries. These can easily burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. We do not recommend heating foods low in moisture such as popcorn or poppodums. Drying of food, newspapers or clothing and heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp cloth, wheat bags, hot water bottles and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire. The oven lamp must be replaced by a service technician trained by the manufacturer. DO NOT attempt to remove the outer casing from the oven.4 5

English Important safety instructions Glass tray

Do not operate the oven without the roller ring and the glass tray in place.

Never use another type of glass tray than the one specially designed for this oven.

If the glass tray is hot, let it cool before cleaning or placing in water.

The glass tray can turn in either direction.

If the food or cooking vessel on the glass tray touches the oven walls and stops the tray rotating, the tray will automatically rotate in the opposite direction. This is normal.

Do not cook foods directly on the glass tray. Roller ring

The roller ring and the oven floor should be cleaned frequently to prevent noise and build-up of remaining food.

The roller ring must always be used for cooking together with the glass tray. Wire rack

The wire rack is used to facilitate browning of small dishes and help with the good circulation of the heat.

Do not use the wire rack in MICROWAVE mode only. Cooking times

The cooking time depends on the condition, temperature, amount of food and on the type of cookware.

Begin with the minimum cooking time to help prevent overcooking. If the food is not sufficiently cooked you can always cook it for a little longer. Important! If the recommended cooking times are exceeded the food will be spoiled and in extreme circumstances could catch fire and possibly damage the interior of the oven. Small quantities of foods

Small quantities of food or foods with low moisture content can burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and remove the plug from the socket. Foods low in moisture

The microwave oven is intended for heating food and beverages only. Take care when heating foods low in moisture, e.g. bread items, chocolate, biscuits and pastries. These can easily burn, dry out or catch on fire if cooked too long. We do not recommend heating foods low in moisture such as popcorn or poppodums. Drying of food, newspapers or clothing and heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp cloth, wheat bags, hot water bottles and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire. Eggs

Do not cook eggs in their shells and whole hard-boiled eggs by MICROWAVE. Pressure may build up and the eggs may explode, even after the microwave heating has ended.10 11

Food with non porous skins, such as potatoes, egg yolks and sausages must be pierced before cooking by MICROWAVE to prevent bursting. Meat thermometer

Use a meat thermometer to check the degree of cooking of roasts and poultry only when the meat has been removed from the oven. Do not use a conventional meat thermometer in the microwave oven because it may cause sparking. Liquids

When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and beverages in your microwave oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken: a Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks. b Do not overheat. c Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and again halfway through the cooking time. d After heating, allow it to stand in the oven for a short time, stir again before carefully removing the container. Paper/plastic

When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently as these types of containers ignite if overheated.

Do not use recycled paper products (e.g. Kitchen Roll) unless the paper product is labelled as safe for microwave oven use. Recycled paper products may contain impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires during use.

Remove wire twist-ties from roasting bags before placing the bags in the oven. Utensils/foil

Do not heat any closed cans or bottles because they might explode.

Metal containers or dishes with metallic trim should not be used during microwave cooking. Sparking will occur.

If you use any aluminium foil, meat spikes or metalware the distance between them and the oven walls and door should be at least 2 cm to prevent sparking. Feeding bottles/baby food jars

The top and teat or lid must be removed from feeding bottles or baby food jars before placing in the oven.

The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken.

The temperature has to be checked before consumption to avoid burns. Important safety instructions10 11

English Questions and answers Q: Why won’t my oven turn on? A: When the oven does not turn on, check the following:

1. Is the oven plugged in securely?

Remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and reinsert.

2. Check the circuit breaker and the

fuse. Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse if it is tripped or blown.

3. If the circuit breaker or fuse is all

right, plug another appliance into the outlet. If the other appliance works, there probably is a problem with the oven. If the other appliance does not work, there probably is a problem with the outlet. If it seems that there is a problem with the oven, contact an authorised Service Centre. Q: My oven causes interference with my TV. Is this normal? A: Some radio and TV interference might occur when you cook with the oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not indicate a problem with your oven. Q: The oven won’t accept my program. Why? A: The oven is designed not to accept an incorrect program. For example, the oven will not accept a fourth stage. Q: Sometimes warm air comes from the oven vents. Why? A: The heat given off from the cooking food warms the air in the oven cavity. This warmed air is carried out of the oven by the air flow pattern in the oven. There are no microwaves in the air. The oven vents should never be blocked during cooking. Q: Can I use a conventional oven thermometer in the oven? A: Only when you are using GRILL cooking mode. The metal in some thermometers may cause arcing in your oven and should not be used on MICROWAVE and COMBINATION cooking modes. Q: There are humming and clicking noises from my oven when I cook by COMBINATION. What is causing these noises? A: The noises occur as the oven automatically switches from MICROWAVE power to GRILL to create the combination setting. This is normal. Q: My oven has an odour and generates smoke when using the COMBINATION and GRILL function. Why? A: After repeated use, it is recommended to clean the oven and then run the oven without food, glass tray, and roller ring on Grill for 5 minutes. This will burn off any food, residue or oil which may cause an odour and/or smoking.24 25

1. Turn the oven off before cleaning.

2. Clean the inside of the oven, door

seals and door seal areas regularly. When food splatters or spilled liquids adhere to the oven walls, door seals and door seal areas wipe off with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may be used if they get very dirty. The use of harsh detergent or abrasive is not recommended.

3. Do not use harsh, abrasive cleaners

or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering the glass.

4. The outside oven surface should

be cleaned with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the operating parts inside the oven, water should not be allowed to seep into the ventilation openings.

5. If the Control Panel becomes dirty,

clean it with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasives on the Control Panel. When cleaning the Control Panel leave the oven door open to prevent the oven from accidentally turning on. After cleaning touch STOP/CANCEL button to clear display window.

6. If steam accumulates inside or

around the outside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. This may occur when the oven is operated under high humidity conditions and in no way indicates a malfunction of the unit.

7. It is occasionally necessary to

remove the glass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher.

8. The roller ring and oven cavity floor

should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and hot water then dry with a clean cloth. The roller ring may be washed in mild soapy water. Cooking vapours collect during repeated use but in no way affects the bottom surface or roller ring wheels. After removing the roller ring from the cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it in the proper position.

9. When using the GRILL or

COMBINATION mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally, it may start to “smoke” during use.

10. A steam cleaner is not to be used for

11. This oven should only be serviced by

qualified personnel. For maintenance and repair of the oven contact the nearest authorised dealer.

12. Failure to maintain the oven in

a clean condition could lead to deterioration of surfaces that could affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

13. Keep air vents clean at all times.

Check that no dust or other material is blocking any of the air vents on the top, bottom or rear of the oven. If air vents become blocked this could cause overheating which would affect the operation of the oven and possibly result in a hazardous situation.24 25
