oven.
∙ Always make sure that the cooking container or plate used does not have any metal decoration, such as a gold rim, or
colour containing metal particles. Lead crystal objects are also not suitable. Always make sure that the cooking containers
used are not hollow in any part (e.g. in the handles). Porous materials may have absorbed water during cleaning and
are again not suitable. Cooking containers or utensils made of ‘Melamine’ plastic material absorb energy and are also
unsuitable.
Using the microwave function
∙ Containers made from heat-resistant glass or porcelain, however, are well suited for use in microwave appliances.
∙ Plastic is suitable only if it is heat-resistant.
∙ Cooking containers especially designed for use with microwave ovens are available at most kitchenware dealers.
∙ Cooking bags etc. should be punctured to release any high pressure during cooking.
Using the grill function
∙ When using the grill function, any heat-resistant containers or plates suitable for conventional ovens may be used. Do not
use any plastic items when using the grill.
∙ The food to be cooked can be put directly on the grill rack, which is then placed on the glass turntable.
Using the microwave/grill combination function
∙ When using the microwave/grill combination, the microwave and grill functions are activated alternately. The containers or
plates must therefore be suitable for use in a microwave appliance as well as being heat-resistant. Because of the relatively
high temperatures, plastic items must not be used. Make sure that the container or plate used does not contain any metal
parts.
Operation
General information on programming the unit
∙ To ensure optimum results, this microwave oven uses state-of-the-art electronics.
∙ When any control button is pressed, the correct input is acknowledged by one beep signal.
∙ A programme can be interrupted or restarted by pressing the key.
General operating sequence
∙ Place the food to be heated in a suitable container. Place the container onto the turntable in the oven.
∙ With the microwave function, the food should be covered to prevent it from drying out. Glass or plastic covers especially
designed for use with microwave appliances are available at most kitchenware dealers.
∙ When using the combination or grill function, do not cover the food to be cooked. The grill rack may be put directly on the
glass turntable with the food itself on the grill rack.
∙ Close the door and set the desired programme.
∙ As the programme is started, the turntable starts to rotate. During operation, the interior light remains on.
∙ If, during operation, the door is opened or the key is pressed (e.g. to stir or to turn the food in order to ensure that the
temperature is evenly distributed), the timer and programme functions are automatically suspended. The programme will
automatically resume only after the door is closed again and the key is pressed.
∙ Press twice to interrupt the programme.
∙ 5 beeps indicate that the pre-programmed period has elapsed; at the same time, the interior lighting switches off.
∙ Open the door and remove the container with the food.
∙ In order to achieve an even heat distribution through the food, the container should be set aside for several minutes.
Setting the clock:
∙ Once the unit has been connected to the power supply, the display shows ‘ 0:00 ’ and an acoustic signal is heard.
∙ For the timer to function properly, the internal clock must be set correctly:
∙ Press . The hour digits start fl ashing in the display. Turn the rotary control to set the correct hour value.
