• As heat radiation is used during grilling and combined operation, please use only heat-resistant tableware. Plastic containers are not suitable.

• When food is only being grilled, metal or aluminium tableware may also be used -but not during combined or microwave operation.

• Do not place anything on top of the housing as this becomes hot. Always leave the ventilation slits uncovered.

• Please use the grilling grid to move the food to be cooked nearer to the heating element. Suitable Microwave Tableware

• The ideal material for use in a microwave is transparent and allows the microwave radiation to heat the food evenly.

• Round / oval dishes and plates are more suitable than rectangular ones as the food in the corners may overcook. CAUTION: Risk of explosion by sealed tableware.

• Open closed containers before cooking or heating.

• Pierce protective plastic foil several times using a fork. CAUTION: Sparking and re hazard!

• Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. Accordingly, no metal containers or plates may be used in microwave operation.

• Do not use any paper dishes made of recycled material as these may contain small amounts of metal, which may result in sparks or res.

What you Should Know about Microwave Operation

• Your appliance works with microwave radiation, which heats up water particles in food in a very short time. There is no heat radiation and therefore hardly any browning.

• Only food should be heated up with this appliance.

• The appliance is not suitable for baking in oating fat.

• Only 1 - 2 portions should be heated up at the same time. Otherwise the microwave will become less efcient.

• Microwaves provide their full energy levels immediately. Pre-heating is therefore not necessary.

• Never operate the microwave function when the oven is empty.

• The microwave oven does not replace your traditional cooker. It is used mainly for: - defrosting deep-frozen food - rapid warming / heating of food or drinks - cooking meals. Initial Operation Installation Instructions

• Install the appliance with the back of the appliance facing the wall.

• Maintain the following safety clearances: - 10 cm to the back - 10 cm to both sides - 30 cm to the top of the microwave.

• In order to avoid interference with the operation of other appliances, do not place your appliance near other electronic appliances. Preparation

1. Press the door opener to open the door of the microwave. The door

2. Remove any accessories from the cooking chamber and unpack.

3. If not yet done: Place the drive shaft on the center of the bottom inside

4. Install the guide ring in the center.

5. Position the glass rotating plate in such a way that its lower recesses

lock onto the center of the drive shaft.

6. Make sure the mains voltage to be used corresponds to the voltage of

the appliance. Check the rating label for specications.

7. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed power socket.

• Do not remove any installed parts from inside the oven or from inside the door!

• The mica sheet (10) is also part of the appliance and must not be removed. It protects the electronic component located behind it from dirt. NOTE: If there are manufacturing or oil remains on the enclosure or heating element, smoke or odor might occur during the beginning operation. This is normal and will cease after repeated use. We strongly recommend proceeding as follows:

• Turn on the grill mode and let the appliance operate several times without food to be cooked.

• Ensure sufcient ventilation. Operating the Microwave

1. Place the food to be heated in a suitable piece of tableware.

2. Open the door and place the vessel in the middle of the glass plate.

Then close the door. (For safety reasons the oven only operates when the door is tightly closed.)

3. Adjust the microwave power as required:

4. Use the timer to set the desired cooking time between 1 minute and

30 minutes. The cooking time depends on the quantity and constit- uency of the contents of the oven. With a little practice you will soon learn to estimate the cooking time. NOTE:

• Preparation of food in a microwave oven is very much faster than in a conventional cooker. Set the cooking time to a low level if you are not sure and continue cooking again if necessary.

• Once the cooking time is set the oven switches itself on. The light inside the oven goes on.

• Please note: A cover should be placed over the food when operating the microwave.

5. When the time has nished the oven switches off automatically.

A sound is heard. The food should then be removed. Pause or Cancel Cooking

• If you wish to interrupt the cooking operation, just open the door with the door opener.

• To continue cooking, close the door.

• To abort the process completely, set the timer to position “0”. Heating Warming and heating are special characteristics of microwaves. Refriger- ated liquids and foods can be easily warmed up to room or eating temper- ature without having to use a lot of pots. The heating times in the following table are for reference only, as the time depends very much on the original temperature and the texture of the food. It is therefore recommended to check once in a while whether the food is hot enough. Heating Table Edibles / food Quantity Switch position Time approx. Min.

Check temperature! Cooking Hands-on Cooking Tips Follow the guidelines given in the cooking table and recipe. Monitor the cooking process if you do not yet have as much experience. You may open the door of the appliance at any time. The appliance will turn off automatically. It will only continue operation when the door is closed. Refrigerated food needs a longer cooking time than that with room tem- perature. The chunkier the food, the longer the cooking time. Meat cut in bigger pieces, for example, requires longer cooking than meat of the same quan- tity cut into strips. It is recommended cooking larger amounts of food at maximum power and having it simmer at medium power for a more evenly cooking. Lower foodstuffs cook faster than higher ones; therefore distribute the food as low as possible. Place thinner parts such as chicken legs or sh lets in the center or leave them overlapping. Smaller amounts cook faster than bigger ones. The following rule of thumb applies: Double amount = almost double time Half amount = half time If you cannot nd the exact cooking time for a dish, you may apply the following rule: Per 100 g approx. 1 minute cooking All foods that you cover on a common stove should be covered in the microwave as well. A cover will prevent the food from running dry. An upside-down plate, greaseproof paper or microwave cooking foil are all suitable as covers. Cook food that should be getting a crust without cover.

• ) Ready-made food Grilling Place the grill rack onto the supplied glass plate. Use suitable heat-resist- ant tableware or directly put the food onto the grill. It is not necessary to preheat the grill rack since the grill generates radiant heat immediately. Proceed as follows for roasting and scalloping:

1. Set the function switch to position “G”.

2. Use the timer to set the desired roasting time between 1 minute and

30 minutes. NOTE: We recommend turning the food (e.g. meat, sausage) after approx. half of the cooking time has elapsed. The fan continues running when the cooking process is paused. Edibles / food Quantity Time approx. min. Cover Scalloping toast with cheese 2 - 3 slices 8 no Scalloping soups, e.g. onion soup 2 - 3 cups 10 - 15 no Microwave and Grill Combination Modes During those modes the microwave and grill work alternately within a set time.

2. Use the timer to set the desired cooking time between 1 minute and

30 minutes. Tips for Combi Operation When cooking food with the combined setting of microwave-grill, you should adhere to the following: The cooking time for big and thick food items, such as roast pork, is re- spectively longer than for small, lower food. Nevertheless, when roasting, the opposite rule applies. The closer the food is to the grill, the faster it will become brown. I.e., when preparing big joints during combi opera- tion, the roasting time is possibly shorter than for smaller joints. Defrosting NOTE:

• Microwave power when defrosting is 36 % (252 W).

• Since the microwaves always penetrate the food from the outside in, larger pieces may not be fully defrosted in their centre. The outer layers may already have started to cook.

• Turn foodstuff such as meat, sausages or bread once after approx. half of the defrost time has elapsed.

• Factor in a compensation time after the defrost program. This is a standing period during which a temperature compensation takes place through conduction of heat from the outside (defrosted) to the inside (frozen). You can leave the food in the switched off appliance or outside the appliance during the compensation time. The compen- sation time should be at least as many minutes as the defrost time in the microwave. It depends on the condition of the food.

• If the weight of the food is less than 200 g, do not place it in the mid- dle but at the edge of the glass plate.

• You can shorten the compensation times by e.g. separating small pieces of meat or crumbling the remaining frozen chunks of mince after the defrosting time. For sliced bread or sausage, separate the slices during the compensation time.

• Allow fruit to defrost in a bowl with a lid. After around half the defrost time, gently stir the fruit once.

• Cakes or tarts with chocolate icing should not be defrosted in the microwave. To use the defrost program, proceed as follows:

1. Determine the weight of the food.

2. Remove the food from its packaging. If it cannot be removed from the

packaging, defrost for 30 seconds on maximum microwave power (Switch position “H”).

3. Place the food to be defrosted onto the plate (fruit into a bowl). Also

place meat onto a upturned saucer so that the meat juices can drain. This saucer should never be used for other foods or come into contact with them.

5. Use the timer to set the desired cooking time between 1 minute and

Turn the microwave off and remove the mains plug. CAUTION:

• Do not use any wire brush or other abrasive objects.

• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.

• Do not use a metal scraper to clean the viewing window. The surface could be scratched and the glass could possibly break. Interior

• Keep the interior of the oven clean. Splashes and overowing liquids on the walls of the oven can be removed with a damp cloth. If the oven is very dirty a mild detergent can also be used.

• Wipe off the viewing window on the inside and outside with a damp cloth and remove splashes and stains from overowing liquids regu- larly. External Walls

• The external walls of the microwave should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. Please ensure that no water enters the openings in the housing and therefore inside the appliance.

• Open the microwave door before cleaning the control panel in order to avoid accidentally switching on the appliance. Accessories

• Clean the glass plate in warm soapy water or in the dishwasher. Dry it before reinstalling it in the microwave.

• Regularly clean the guide ring and the inside of the bottom. You may remove the guide ring and manually clean it. Use a mild detergent or glass cleaner. Dry thoroughly. Make sure to position the ring properly afterwards.

• Clean the grill after each use with a dishwashing detergent or place it in a dishwasher for cleaning. Odours In order to remove any unpleasant odours that may emanate from the mi- crowave, place a dish lled with water and lemon juice that is suitable for microwave use in the oven and heat it for approximately 5 minutes. Then wipe out the oven with a soft cloth. Oven Light If you need to replace the lighting in the oven, please contact a specialist workshop near you.
