  • Accessible surfaces are liable to get hot during use.
  • Keep the electrical cable away from heated surfaces, and do not cover any vents on the oven.

Important - Microwave Cooking

  • Do not attempt to operate this microwave oven with the door open or ajar. It is important not to alter or tamper with the safety interlocks.
  • Do not place anything between the oven front face and the door, or allow soil or cleaning residues to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
  • WARNING: If the door, door seal or interlocks are damaged, the oven must not be used until it is repaired by a suitably qualified person.
  • Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
  • WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.
  • Only use utensils suitable for use in microwave ovens.

  • Do not use metal pans or dishes with metal handles.

  • Do not use anything with metal trim.
  • Do not use melamine dishes as they contain a material which will absorb microwave energy. This may cause the dishes to crack or char and will slow down the cooking speed.
  • Do not cook in a container with a restricted opening, such

as a carbonated drinks bottle or salad oil bottle, as they may explode if heated in a microwave oven.

  • Do not use conventional meat or sugar thermometers.
  • Remove wire twist-ties from bags before placing bags in the oven.

  • The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits should be removed.

  • If smoke is emitted, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
  • Do not use the oven cavity for storage purposes. Do not store items, such as bread, cookies, books etc. inside the oven.
  • Eggs in the shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode, even after microwave heating has ended.
  • Do not cook any food surrounded by a membrane, such as egg yolks, potatoes, chicken livers, etc. without first piercing it several times with a fork.
  • If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its approved service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
  • Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
  • Do not use this oven near water, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
  • Do not let the power cable hang over the edge of a table or worktop.
  • Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surfaces that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
    • Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive

boiling, therefore care must be taken when handling the container.

- This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.

- Always have the glass tray, roller arms, coupling and roller track in place when operating the microwave oven.

- Do not use the oven for any reason other than food preparation, such as for drying clothes, paper, or any other non-food items, or for sterilizing purposes.

- Do not operate the microwave or combination cooking functions when empty. This could damage the oven.

- Do not insert any object into the openings on the outer case.

- Do not at any time remove parts from the oven such as the feet, coupling, screws, etc.

- Do not cook food directly on the glass turntable. Place food in/on proper cooking utensils before placing in the oven.

- Do not attempt to deep-fry foods in the oven.

- Please remember that a microwave oven only heats the liquid in a container rather than the container itself. Therefore, even though the lid of a container is not hot to the touch when removed from the oven, the food/liquid inside will be releasing the same amount of steam and/or spitting when the lid is removed as in conventional cooking.

- Always test the temperature of cooked food yourself especially if you are heating or cooking food/liquid for babies. It is advisable never to consume food/liquid straight from the oven but allow it to stand for a few minutes and stir food/liquid to distribute heat evenly.

- Food containing a mixture of fat and water, e.g. stock, should stand for 30-60 seconds in the oven after it has been turned off. This is

to allow the mixture to settle and to minimise the risk of eruptive boiling when a spoon is placed in the food/liquid or a stock cube is added.

  • When preparing/cooking food/liquid remember that there are certain foods, e.g. Christmas puddings, jam and mincemeat, which heat up very quickly.
  • When heating or cooking foods with a high fat or sugar content do not use plastic containers.
  • Cooking utensils may become hot because of heat transferred from the food. This is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensils. Oven gloves may be needed to handle the utensils.

• To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

  • Do not overcook food.
  • Watch the microwave oven carefully if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are used inside the oven during cooking.

First Use of the Oven

First use

- Before using the oven for the first time we recommend that you clean it with soapy water, rinse carefully and then heat on each of these programmes at maximum temperature for the specified time.

• 15 minutes grill
• 60 minutes conventional oven

A slightly unpleasant smell may be produced, caused by grease remaining on the elements from the production process.

Please note:

  • This appliance has been fitted with a cooling fan to achieve maximum efficiency and to maintain low surface temperatures. The cooling fan will switch on automatically when the oven switches on. It is normal for the cooling fan to continue to run after use, depending on the duration, temperature and type of cooking programme used.
  • The oven light remains on for every cooking function.

When the microwave oven is first connected to the power supply the display will show “0:00” and it will sound one beep.

Care and Maintenance

IMPORTANT

There are no user serviceable parts in this appliance. It is dangerous for anyone other than a qualified person to perform maintenance or repair that requires the removal of any cover as these provide protection against exposure to microwave power and extremely high voltages.

The oven exterior

As the oven has a stainless steel surface, you should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings. Stainless steel can be effectively cleaned by simply using a dilute solution of water and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.

Proprietary stainless steel cleaners are available. We recommend the CDA E-Cloth available from the CDA Sales Team for cleaning stainless steel surfaces as this has been designed to prolong the finish of your appliance.

Inside of Oven

The oven should always be cleaned after use when it has cooled down.

The cavity should be cleaned using a mild detergent solution and warm water.

IMPORTANT:

  • Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
  • Once care and maintenance is complete, ensure that all parts are correctly replaced before using the oven.

When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements laid down for this type of product. However, special care should be taken around the rear or the underneath of the appliance as these areas are not designed or intended to be touched and may contain sharp or rough edges that could cause injury.

If your appliance is not working:

  1. Check that it is switched on.
  2. Check that the mains supply has not been switched off.
  3. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.

In the event of a fault with the appliance, please advise CDA Customer Care of any fault code shown on the display
