BEFORE CONNECTION |
* Check whether your oven has suffered any damage during transport (ceformed door or
door seal, etc.). If you see any signs of damage, contact your dealer before use.
* Verify the power voltage. If there is a PERMANENT undervoltage (200-210 volts), consult your
electrical installer.

LOCATION |
» The oven must be set on a work surface at least 85 cm above floor level. 4
!
* Place the oven on a flat and horizontal surface, away from any source of heat or | +71 |
steam. To ensure the stability of the microwave oven, the front left foot is |
adjustable (5 positions). Turn it to raise or lower the appliance. i
“a”
+ Make sure that air may circulate freely around the oven.
Leave sufficient space around the oven :
- 5 cm between the sides of the oven
and any walls or objects
- 14 cm above the oven
- 10 cm behind the oven.
* Allow nothing to obstruct the ventilation
louvers at the back of the appliance.
He
5 ст
* Make sure the electrical plug will be accessible after installation.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
* Your installation must be protected by a 16 Amp thermal fuse.
« It is mandatory to use a power point with a ground terminal, connected in accordance with ;
current safety regulations,
* In your electrical installation, provide a device that is accessible to the installer, capable of
separating the appliance from the mains power and whose contact opening is at least 3 mm
at all of the poles. — |
* Never operate the oven if the supply cord and/ or its plug are damaged. in case of damage,
call in a specialised technician trained by the manufacturer.
92 :
Your appliance is designed exclusively for the domestic purposes of defrosting, heating
or cooking foods. The manufacturer bears no responsibility in the case of improper
usage.
To avoid deterioration of your microwave oven, never operate it empty or without
the turntable.
Never tamper with the lock mechanism of your microwave oven; this could cause
damage requiring repair by an authorised technician.
Before use, make sure that the containers are appropriate for microwave usage
(e.g.: heat resistant glass, porcelain, etc.).
It is not advisable to use metal recipients, forks, spoons, knives, metal ties or staples
for deep-freeze bags.
For baby food and children's food, it is essential :
- to remove the nipple before heating up baby bottles, shake the contents and
test the temperature on the back of your hand before feeding.
- to stir and verify the temperature of children’s foods before serving to avoid cau-
sing serious internal burns.
WARNING : Do not allow children to use the microwave oven without supervision
unless they have been thoroughly instructed in the proper use and the dangers of
improper operation.
93
It is advisable to cover food in most cases. It will be tastier and your.cven will stay clea-
ner. However, be sure to remove the cap or lid before cooking foods or heating
liquids in a sealed bottle or container, which could otherwise explode.
The heating or cooking of boiled, coddled eggs or fried eggs by microwave is
prohibited. They can burst and cause serious burns or irreparable damage to your
oven.
When heating liquids, the boiling point may be reached without the typical bubbles
appearing on the surface. To prevent them from boiling over and causing burns
due to sudden spurting of the liquid, wait 20 seconds before removing the
containers from the appliance or adding anything to the liquids.
For small amounts (one sausage, a single croissant, etc.), place a glass of water
alongside the food item.
Time settings that are too long may dry out and burn the food. To avoid such inci-
dents, never use the same cooking times as those recommended for traditional
ovens.
Be sure to watch closely when heating or cooking foods in disposable plastic or
paper containers or any other combustible material, due to fire hazard.
If smoke appears, keep the oven door closed and disconnect the oven or turn
it off. |
