Electrolux microwave oven, the following instructions
have been prepared. Please make sure you read them
carefully.
It is important that this instruction book is retained
with the appliance for future reference. Should the
appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or
if you move house and leave the appliance, always
ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance so
that the new owner can become acquainted with the

functioning of the appliance and the relevant war-
nings. Please ensure you have read the whole instruc-
tion book before using the appliance and that you fol-
low the recommendations given.

Before using your microwave oven

N.B. When you unpack the oven, check that the
product is free from damage. Damage or any missing
parts must be reported immediately to the retailer.
The oven, parts of the oven or the accessories may be

wrapped by a protection foil. If so, you must remove
this foil before using the oven. Do not leave packing
material so that small children can play with it. This
can be hazardous.
