Installing Your Microwave Oven

Place the oven on a flat level surface 85cm above the floor. The 
surface should be strong enough to safety bear the weight of the oven.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or 
assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent. 
For your personal safety, plug the cable into a 3-pin, 230 Volt, 50Hz, 
AC earthed socket. If the power cable of this appliance is damaged, it 
must be replaced by a special cable.

Do not install the microwave oven in hot or damp surroundings like 
next to a traditional oven or radiator. The power supply specifications 
of the oven must be respected and any extension cable used must be 
of the same standard as the power cable supplied with the oven. 
Wipe the interior and the door seal with a damp cloth before using 
your microwave oven for the first time.

1.

When you install your oven, make sure there is adequate 
ventilation for your oven by leaving at least 10 cm (4 
inches) of space behind and, on the sides of the oven 
and 20 cm (8 inches) of space above.

Install the roller ring and turntable. 
Check that the turntable rotates freely.
