• This product is designed for domestic use. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for personal injury or property damage deriving from incorrect installation or improper, erroneous or unsuitable use.
• The appliance must not be used by people (including children) with physical, sensorial or mental impairments, or by people without the necessary experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised or instructed in 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. Do not place aluminium foil, pots or similar objects in contact with the base inside the oven for cooking. The heating action of the lower heating element may cause overheating of the lower part of the oven, resulting in damage and serious consequences (risk of fire), also for the counter under the oven.
  • The appliance gets very hot during use.
• WARNING: don't touch the heating elements inside the oven.

ATTENTION:

• If the door or the gasket seals of the door are damaged, the oven may not be used until it has been repaired by a qualified service technician.
• It dangerous for anyone other than a service technician to perform any maintenance or repairs that involve the removal of any cover that protects against exposure to microwaves.
• Liquids or other foods must not be heated in air-tight containers because they could explode.
• Children may not use the oven without supervision until they have been adequately instructed in its safe use and understand the dangers of using it incorrectly.
• Use only utensils appropriate for microwave ovens.
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven frequently because of the risk of fire.

• If you see smoke coming out of the oven, turn off or unplug the appliance, and keep the door closed to extinguish any flames.

• Heating beverages in the microwave oven may cause a delayed boil-over, so be careful when handling the container.

• The contents of baby bottles and baby food in jars must be stirred or shaken, and their temperature must be checked before feeding to avoid scalding.

ATTENTION:

• Eggs in the shell and whole hard-boiled eggs must not be heated in microwave ovens because they could explode, even after heating in the microwave has ended.
• A detailed explanation of how to clean the gasket seals of the doors of the oven cavity and adjacent parts.
• The oven must be cleaned periodically and all food residues must be removed.
• Failure to keep the oven clean could cause deterioration of the surfaces, which could reduce the lifespan of the appliance and cause dangerous conditions.
• Do not use rough abrasives or sharp metal scrapers to clean the glass door of the oven, as they could scratch the surface and cause the glass to shatter.
• Do not use steam cleaners to clean the appliance.

FOOD PREPARATION

Danger of fire

Use the microwave function only for preparation of food to be eaten. Any other use may be dangerous or cause damage. For example, heating slippers or pillows filled with grain or cereals could cause these items to catch fire, even after several hours.

POTS AND PANS

Danger of injury

Porcelain and ceramic crockery may have small holes in the handles and cover. There could be cavities hidden behind these holes. If water gets into these cavities, the crockery could break.

Do not use crockery that is unsuitable for microwave ovens.

Danger of burns

The heat of the food can heat the dish. Always use a pot-holder to remove dishes and accessories from the cooking chamber.

Never set values that are too high for the microwave power or the cooking time. The food could catch fire and damage the appliance. Follow the rules in these instructions.

PACKAGING

Danger of fire

Never heat food in thermal packaging. Food in containers made of plastic, paper or other inflammable materials must be watched constantly.

Danger of burns

Airtight packaging can explode. Follow the instructions shown on the package. Always use a pot-holder to remove dishes.

BEVERAGES

Danger of burns

When heating liquids, boiling may be delayed. This means that the boiling temperature has been reached without forming the typical little steam bubbles. Even a slight knock could cause liquid to overflow suddenly or splash. When heating liquids, always put a spoon in the container to prevent delayed boiling.

Two glassware illustrations: a spoon inside and a cross symbol crossed out (no text or symbols present)

Danger of explosion

Never heat beverages or other types of food in covered containers.

Never heat alcoholic beverages excessively.

BABY FOOD

Danger of burns

Never heat baby food in a covered container. Always remove the cover or nipple.

When finished heating, always shake or stir carefully to ensure that heat is evenly distributed.

Test the temperature before giving the food to the baby.

FOODS WITH SKIN OR PEEL

Danger of burns

Never cook eggs in the shell.

Never heat hard-boiled eggs, as they could explode even after the microwave is turned off. The same applies to shellfish and crustaceans.

When frying eggs, pierce the yolk first. In the case of foods with a hard peel or skin like apples, tomatoes, potatoes or sausage, the peel or skin could explode. Pierce the peel or skin before cooking.

DRYING FOODS

Danger of fire

Never dry food in the microwave.

FOODS WITH LOW WATER CONTENT

Danger of fire

Never defrost or heat foods with low water content, such as bread, for too long or at an excessive power level.

OIL

Danger of fire

Never use the microwave to heat oil alone.

CAUSES OF DAMAGE

Juice leaking from fruit

When preparing desserts containing very juicy fruit, do not overfill the baking dish. Fruit juice overflowing the baking dish can leave indelible stains.

Technical breakdown

Never use enamelled baking dishes in the microwave as they could cause a technical breakdown.

Cooling with the door of the appliance open

The cooking chamber must only be cooled with the door closed. Check that nothing is stuck on the door of the appliance.

Even if the door is only ajar, nearby cabinets could be damaged over time.

Very dirty gasket seal

If the gasket seal is very dirty, the door of the appliance will not close correctly during operation. The surfaces of nearby cabinets could be damaged. Always keep the gasket seal clean.

Using the door of the appliance as a support surface

Do not rest or lean on the open door of the appliance and do not put dishes or accessories on it.

First use

• The oven should be thoroughly cleaned with soap and water, and carefully rinsed.
- Heat the oven for about 30 minutes at the maximum temperature; this eliminates all the residual manufacturing oils that could cause unpleasant odours during cooking.
- Use the circular plus fan function without accessories in the oven. Before using the accessories for the first time, clean them carefully with a very hot alkaline washing solution and a soft cloth.

ASSEMBLING AND DISASSEMBLING THE FLAT GRILL

To remove the flat grill, pull the grill towards you until it stops and then lift, by pulling upwards, until it comes fully out. To put the flat grill back in, insert it at a 45-degree angle and then position it horizontally and push it all the way in to the end of the grill track. If the flat grill has a drippan (tray), to remove it, lift slightly and slide it towards you. To insert it again, slide it back until it is correctly seated.

IMPORTANT: As a safety precaution, before cleaning the oven, always disconnect the plug from the outlet or remove the appliance's power cord. In addition, avoid using acid or alkaline substances such as lemon, vinegar, salt, tomatoes, etc. Avoid using products containing chlorine, acids or abrasives, especially for cleaning the painted walls.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Before connecting the appliance to the mains, make sure that:

• the characteristics of the electrical system satisfy what is shown on the serial number plate applied to the front of the oven:
• the electrical system has an effective earth connection conforming to standards and current law.

The earth connection is required by law.

The cable must not, at any point, reach a temperature greater than 50^ C above the ambient temperature.

This oven must be connected to the power supply by a supply cord fitted with an appropriately rated plug compatible with the socket in the final sub-circuit of the wiring powering the oven. If a fixed appliance does not have a power cord and plug, or another device that ensures disconnection from the mains with a contact opening distance that allows for complete disconnection under the conditions of excessive voltage category III, such disconnection devices must be provided by the mains power supply and must conform to the installation rules.

The omnipolar socket or switch must be easy to reach when the appliance is installed.

NOTE: The manufacturer declines all liability if the usual accident prevention standards and the above instructions are not followed.

Solving traditional baking problems

Poor results can occur with either Bake or Convection Bake for many reasons other than malfunctioning of the oven. Check the chart below for the causes of the most common problems. Since the size, shape and material of baking

utensils directly affect baking results, the best solution may be to replace old baking utensils that have darkened and warped with age and use.

BAKING PROBLEM	CAUSE
Food browns unevenly	Oven not preheatedAluminum foil on oven rack or oven bottomBaking utensil too large for recipePans touching each other or oven walls
Food too brown on bottom	Oven not preheatedUsing glass, dull or darkened metal pansIncorrect rack positionPans touching each other or oven walls
Food is dry or has shrunk excessively	Oven temperature too lowOven not preheatedOven door opened frequentlyTightly sealed with aluminum foilPan size too small
Food is baking or roasting too slowly	Oven temperature too lowOven not preheatedOven door opened frequentlyTightly sealed with aluminum foilPan size too small
