STOP/RESET
•
Press once to stop the cooking process.
•
Press twice to delete the programme.
•
Hold down for 3 seconds to disable/reactivate the device.
Initial Operation
•
If there are any oil or other residues from the manufacturing
process on the housing or heating element, smoke or
odours may initially be produced. This is normal and will not
occur after the oven has been used a few times.
The following procedure is strongly recommended: Turn
the oven to the hot air or grill function and operate it several
times without any food inside. Please ensure adequate
ventilation.
Please note! The oven can only be used without food inside
with the hot air or grill function; this is not possible during
combined or microwave operation!
•
After removing all the accessories from inside the oven, un-
pack them and place the sliding ring in the middle. Position
the glass plate on the drive axle in such a way that it locks
into the dents of the drive shafts and is lying fl at.
•
Check the device for any visible damage, particularly in the
area of the door. If any damage is found, the machine must
not be used.
•
In order to avoid interference to other machines when the
microwave oven is operated, do not place it in the direct
vicinity of other electronic devices.
•
Remove any protective foils that may be adhered to the
housing.
•
Insert the mains plug into a properly installed 230 V, 50 Hz
power socket.
Using the Device
What you should know about microwave operation:
•
Your device 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 device.

•
Do not fry food in the microwave as hot oil may damage the
oven and lead to skin burns.
•
Only 1-2 portions should be heated up at the same time.
Otherwise the microwave will become less effi cient.
•
In order to interrupt the cooking process, press the STOP
button.
•
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
Information on Grilling and Combined Operation
•
As heat radiation is used during grilling and combined
operation, please use only heat-resistant tableware.
•
When food is only being grilled, metal or aluminium tablewa-
re 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.
•
Microwaves are not able to penetrate metal, so that no metal
vessels or plates should be used.
•
Do not use any paper dishes made of recycled material as
these may contain small amounts of metal, which may result
in sparks or fi res.
•
Round/oval dishes and plates are more suitable than
rectangular ones as the food in the corners may overcook.
