Frequently Asked Questions - VM600 CDA

How do I set the clock on my CDA VM600 microwave?
Keep the door open while setting the clock. Press SELECT until the hours digits flicker, then use +/- to set hours. Press SELECT again, set minutes with +/-, and press SELECT to confirm. You have 5 minutes to complete the setup.
What should I do if the microwave doesn't start?
First, ensure the turntable and support are in place, plug is inserted properly, door is closed, and fuses are okay. Wait 10 minutes, then try again. Open and close the door before retrying. If it still doesn't work, call a trained service technician.
Can I use metal utensils in the microwave?
No, do not use metal containers or accessories with metal parts, as they can cause sparking and damage the oven. Only use microwave-safe utensils that allow microwaves to pass through. The wire rack is safe only when using Grill functions.
How do I clean the microwave interior?
Use a mild detergent, water, and a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads. For stubborn stains, boil a cup of water for 2-3 minutes to soften marks. The turntable, support, and wire rack are dishwasher safe.
What is the 'Key Lock' function and how to use it?
The Key Lock is an automatic safety feature that activates one minute after the oven returns to standby. The door must be opened and closed (e.g., putting food in) before the safety lock is released. If locked, the display shows 'DOOR'.
How do I use the Auto Reheat function?
Press AUTO repeatedly until 'Auto Reheat' is selected. Press SELECT, choose food class with +/-, press SELECT, set weight, press SELECT, then START. Always cover food (except chilled soups) and arrange denser food on the outside of the plate.
Why does the display show 'HOT' after cooking?
This means the cavity temperature is above 50°C. The oven performs a cooling down procedure automatically. You can open the door to interrupt cooling without harm. Use oven mitts when removing hot food.
Can I use steam cleaning products?
No, do not use steam cleaning appliances when cleaning the microwave. Only use mild detergent and water. The grill element self-cleans by burning off splashes; run it empty for 10 minutes monthly if not used regularly.
What is the Jet Defrost function and how to use it?
Jet Defrost automatically calculates defrosting time based on weight (100g-2.5kg). Press AUTO to select Jet Defrost, choose food class, set weight, and press START. Halfway through, the oven prompts to turn food; open door, turn, close, and press START. For weights outside range, use manual defrost at 160W.
How do I adjust the doneness level for auto functions?
During the first 20 seconds after pressing START, use +/- buttons to select a doneness level: Low -2 (lowest end temp) to High +2 (highest end temp). Default is MED 0. This only works for auto functions like Auto Reheat, Auto Cook, and Jet Defrost.

MANUAL DEFROST

CDA VM600 - MANUAL DEFROST - 1

FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE for "Cook & Reheat with microwaves" and choose power level 160 W when defrosting manually.

CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY. Experience will give you the times needed for various amounts.

FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic films or cardboard packages can be placed directly in the oven as long as the package has no metal parts (e.g. metal twist ties).

THE SHAPE OF THE PACKAGE alters the defrosting time. Shallow packets defrost more quickly than a deep block.

TURN LARGE JOINTS halfway through the defrost- ing process.

CDA VM600 - MANUAL DEFROST - 2

BOILED FOOD, STEWS AND MEAT SAUCES defrost better if stirred during defrosting time.

- WHEN DEFROSTING it is better to under-thaw the food slightly and allow the process to finish during standing time.

SEPARATE PIECES as they begin to defrost. Individual slices defrost more easily.

SHIELD AREAS OF FOOD with small pieces of aluminum foil if they start to become warm (e.g. chicken legs and wing tips).

CDA VM600 - MANUAL DEFROST - 3

STANDING TIME AFTER DEFROSTING ALWAYS IMPROVES the result since the temperature will then be evenly distributed throughout the food.

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING

CLEANING IS THE ONLY MAINTENANCE normally required.

FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 1

DO NOT USE METAL SCOURING PADS,

ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, steelwool pads, gritty washcloths, etc. which can damage the control panel, and the interior and exterior oven surfaces. Use a sponge with a mild detergent or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel. Do not spray directly on the oven.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 2

AT REGULAR INTERVALS, especially if spill overs have occurred, remove the turntable, the turntable suppo and wipe the base of the oven clean.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 3

THIS OVEN IS DESIGNED to operate with the turntable in place.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 4

Do not operate the microwave oven when the turntable has been removed for cleaning.

USE A MILD DETERGENT, water and a soft cloth to clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of the door and the door opening.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 5

Do NOT ALLOW GREASE or food particles to build up around the door.

FOR STUBBORN STAINS, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the marks.

CDA VM600 - MAINTENANCE &amp; CLEANING - 6

DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANING APPLIANCES when cleaning your microwave oven.

ADDING SOME LEMON JUICE to a cup of water, placing this on the turntable and boiling for a few minutes can eliminate odours inside the oven.

THE GRILL ELEMENT does not need cleaning since the intense heat will burn off any splashes, but the cavity ceiling below it may need regular cleaning. This should be done with warm water, detergent and a sponge. If the Grill is not used regularly, it should be run for 10 minutes a month to burn off any splashes, in order to reduce the risk of fire.
