SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these operating instructions thoroughly and follow them and the safety notes in particular before using the appliance for the first time!

Anything done to or with this appliance should only be undertaken as described in the operating instructions.

Keep these instructions in a safe place for further use.

If you pass on this microwave to a third party, please include these instructions.

Areas of use

• This appliance is intended solely for household use. It should only be used for warming up appropriate foodstuffs in microwave-suitable containers and dishes.

• When warming up meals in plastic or paper containers it is necessary to monitor the appliance constantly because of the danger of fire.

• The microwave is not intended for the preparation of foods which require frying. The appliance is also not intended for drying out objects. Caution!

This could cause a fire!

• Children should only use this appliance without adult supervision if they have been given sufficient instructions to use the appliance safely and are aware of the dangers of misuse.

4



Setting up and electrical connection

• Connect the microwave only with an appropriate 230V~50Hz safety plug which has at least a 16 Amp fuse. To prevent tripping, please avoid using an extension cable.

• Ensure that the power cable is undamaged and does not run underneath the appliance or over any hot surfaces.

• The microwave should be set up on a level, stable surface, which is able to carry the weight of the appliance as well as the food which is to be prepared within it. Only set up the microwave in a safe, dry environment.

• Please pay attention to the minimum safe distances and under no circumstances cover the ventilation slots. Do not place any objects on the microwave as these may become hot during use.

To ensure adequate ventilation a minimum safe clearance distance of 30cm and 10cm on both sides must be observed. The openings in the appliance should not be covered or blocked.

• Protect the device from water droplets or spray. If the appliance does become wet then pull out the plug immediately.

Warning!

During use the touchable surfaces may become very hot!

Attention!

Hot surface!

5



Initial operation and use

• Use only the supplied accessories or those approved by us (see

“Microwave-suitable materials and objects” on page 10.).

• Never operate the appliance while empty.

• Use only microwave-suitable dishes. Look for markings such as

"Microwave-suitable" or "For the microwave".

• Never use dishes with metal trimmings, metal utensils or the grill stand in microwave mode as this could damage the appliance.

• Do not remove any of the microwave's panels or the inner coating of the viewing window as this could lead to microwave radiation leakage.

• Never leave the appliance unattended during operation.

• The appliance should be cleaned regularly and food particles should be removed.

• Poor appliance hygiene can lead to damage of the surfaces, which in turn can reduce the lifespan of the appliance and even lead to dangerous situations.

Attention!

When heating liquids in the microwave so-called "delayed boiling" can occur, i.e. the liquid has reached boiling temperature without beginning to bubble as boiling liquids normally do. Agitation, for instance when removing the liquid from the appliance, can lead to a sudden boiling up of the liquid.

Warning!

There is a danger of scalding!

Therefore: always place a glass or ceramic rod in liquids that are to be heated up. This will hinder sudden, belated boiling of the liquid.

• Never heat up foods in closed containers. With bottles, such as baby bottles, always remove the lid; otherwise there is a danger of explosion.

6



• With foods that have a firm skin, e.g. sausages or tomatoes, make small slits in the skin so that they do not burst during cooking.

• Do not try to warm up eggs in their shells or pre-boiled eggs unless in specially designed microwave-suitable containers.

Warning!

Eggs which are already boiled can explode, even after being removed from the oven.

• After heating, stir the food if possible to ensure even temperatures, otherwise let the food stand for a short time.

• Check the temperature before eating food cooked in the microwave.

Special care must be taken with baby food. Always stir or shake the baby food before checking the temperature to avoid burns.

Faults

• Avoid damaging the appliance or the power cable.

• Always check the cable and the appliance before each use.

• If you detect any damage do not use the appliance under any circumstances. Immediately remove the mains plug from the socket.

• Ensure that defective devices are repaired, or damaged mains cables replaced, by a specialist workshop or contact your Medion Service Centre to reduce risks.

Warning!

It is dangerous for untrained persons to carry out repair or maintenance work which requires the removal of the plates which are in place to prevent the escape of microwave radiation.

• If you see smoke, keep the door closed to prevent fire from breaking out, or to smother flames which have already broken out, and immediately turn off the appliance using the Cancel/Stop button.

• Then pull the plug out of the mains socket straight away.

7



Warning!

If the housing, door, door seal or the door catch is damaged then do not use the appliance under any circumstances. Have the appliance repaired immediately by a specialist workshop or contact your Medion Service Centre.

• Ensure that the microwave is not placed near any heat source or in an area where it could come into contact with water.

8



About microwaves

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves which have a warming effect on the food within the oven. Microwaves heat all non-metallic objects. Therefore, do not place any metallic objects in the microwave oven.

This heating effect works better the higher the water content of the foodstuff.

To ensure optimal distribution of heat let food stand for a minute or two after cooking.

The effect of microwaves on foodstuffs

• Microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a depth of up to 3cm.

• They heat up water, fat and sugar molecules (foodstuffs with a higher water content are heated more intensively).

• This heat then works its way – slowly – throughout the food and has a defrosting, heating and cooking effect on the food.

• The cooking chamber and the air within are not heated (the food container is heated mainly by the hot food).

• Each foodstuff requires a certain amount of energy to cook or defrost. As a rule of thumb we can say high energy = short time or low energy = long time.

The Microwave Oven

• A microwave generator, the so-called magnetron, generates the microwaves and directs them into the cooking space.

• The inner walls reflect the microwaves inwards so that they cannot escape from the interior.

• The rotary plate helps ensure even distribution of the microwaves onto the food.

• The microwave power can be set in several steps; the cooking/defrosting time is continuously variable.

9



• After the cooking time has elapsed, or when the door is opened, the magnetron turns off immediately.

Cooking and heating up in the microwave

• To arrange food so that it cooks properly place the food with the largest pieces towards the outer edge.

• Note the exact cooking or heating times.

• Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it if necessary. Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fire.

• Cover food during cooking or heating. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore the food is more evenly cooked.

• Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once during cooking to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such as joints or roasting chickens must be turn at least once.

• It is also important to reposition food, e.g. with meatballs. After half of the cooking time is over the food should be repositioned from top to bottom and from the middle to the outside.

Microwave-suitable materials and objects

You can buy special dishes and accessories for your microwave. Look for markings such as "Microwave-suitable" or "For the microwave". You can also use your existing dishes – if the material is suitable.

Suitable products include:

• Porcelain, glass ceramic and heat-proof glass

• Plastics which are heat-proof and microwave-suitable (note: plastics may become discoloured by foods or become warped by the heat)

• Baking paper and foil

10



Note:

Do not use porcelain, ceramic or plastic containers in grill or grill combi mode. Cling film should also not be used. Due to the very high temperatures the materials could break, warp or even melt.

Suitable in most cases are:

• Stoneware and ceramics. Use clay containers only for defrosting and for short cooking times because the air and water content of the material could cause the clay to crack or break.

• Dishes with gold or silver décor should only be used when the manufacture has labelled it "microwave-suitable".

• Aluminium foil, if used in small pieces to protect delicate parts, in order to prevent overcooking in the corners in which the microwave energy is mainly concentrated. However, do not use too much aluminium foil and ensure that it does not come within 2.5cm of the inner walls.

• Aluminium containers (e. g. those for ready-to-serve meals) are suitable, but they must be at least 3cm high to be used in the microwave.

Unsuitable products include:

• Metal, i.e. metal pots, pans and lids.

Attention!

Metal in the cooking space can lead to sparks! These can damage the appliance or the viewing window! Therefore use the supplied grill only in grill or combi mode.

• Dishes with metal parts (handles, decoration or bottoms) or with gold or silver décor can also lead to sparks.

• Crystal or lead crystal can shatter, coloured glass may become discoloured.

• Any materials which are not heat-proof can lose shape or even burn.

11



Note:

To test whether a dish is suitable for use in the microwave, put some water in the container and place it in the microwave. Press the button

Micro/Micro+Grill and choose the highest power setting (100) using

the dial. Start the microwave with the Start/OK button for one minute.

If you ascertain that the container is hotter than the food, then it is not suitable for the microwave. Microwave-suitable dishes are only warmed by the heat of the food.

Attention!

As soon as you notice sparks, flashes or even fire, then turn off the

microwave immediately using the Cancel/Stop button!

Size and shape of microwave-suitable containers

Flat, broad containers are better than narrow, tall ones. "Flat" foods can be cooked more evenly.

Round or oval containers are better than angular ones. There is a danger of local overheating in the corners.
