In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. WARNING – Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exist as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. • Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service man install an outlet near the appliance. Testing Containers and Utensils Some non-metallic containers and utensils become extremely hot when used in a microwave oven. To avoid risk of scalding, use the following procedure to determine if a container or utensil is safe for microwave use: 1. Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup (250 ml) of cold water. Place it in the microwave oven along with the container or utensil in question. 2. Turn the oven on maximum power for 1 minute. Do not exceed 1 minute cooking time. 3. Carefully feel the container. If the empty container is warm, do not use it for microwave cooking. Earth grounding instructions This device should be earth grounded, it is anticipated for a plug and socket outlet with earthing contact. The plug should be connected to a socket with an earthing pin that is High (100 %). Use for most basic dishes, for cooking tender meats poultry, and for quickly reheating dishes.
Medium (77 %) Use mainly for meats, fish and vegetables; to quickly reheat individual meals or frozen meals after defrosting. Low (55 %) Use for dishes that require slow cooking, such as hotpots, stews, casseroles and for less tender meats. Defrosting (33 %) Use for defrosting meats, poultry and fish etc. Warm (17 %) Use for keeping meals warm when carrying out kitchen preparations. Yeast containment. 35 minute Timer With a scale ranging from 0 to 10 minutes and with a compression scale of 10 to 35 minutes. Examples of power adjustments: The power selector allows you to choose the optimum power level for the dishes you wish to cook. Examples of adjustment levels Low . • Melting cheese . • Keeping stews and main courses warm Warm and defrosting . • Melting chocolate . • Reheating bread, bread rolls, pancakes, and toasted bread. . • Melting butter . • Defrosting fruit . • Reheating small portions of food . • Defrosting meat, poultry, shell fish . • For cooking casserole stews, gently simmering dishes and some sauces. . • For cooking food at a slow rate Medium . • Cooking casseroles and soups after having been brought to boiling point. . • For cooking pastry cream and dough.
High . • Cooking cuts of meat, poultry, fish, vegetables and for most casserole dishes. . • Preheating the browning plate . • Boiling water. . • Thickening some sauces. Microwave cooking Kitchen equipment A large variety of foods can be mixed together, defrosted, cooked or reheated and served in the same container. This is especially suitable for appetizers, vegetables, casserole stews, drinks and soups. It allows you to save preparation time and makes washing up quicker. Covering food You may wish to maintain the natural moisture of the food. If this is the case, cover the food with waxed paper or plastic micro perforated film. If you wish to let the moisture escape, cook the food without covering it. If you wish to remove excess moisture or grease from food (such as dry aperitif biscuits or bacon), let them cook moderately on paper napkins. Covering the food with waxed paper or plastic micro perforated film also prevents serious burns. Stirring and mixing the food When stirring food, start from the outside towards the centre, as food is cooked first around the edge of the plate. It is the centre which is the last to be heated. Some dishes, such as casserole dishes, soups or recipes with a certain depth should be stirred once or twice during cooking. Other dishes such as roast meats, poultry or cakes may need to be turned to ensure even cooking. You can adjust the timer to remind you when to stir or turn the food. If the total cooking time is 6 minutes and you have to stir the food three times, adjust the timer to 2 minutes. Every time the bell rings, open the door and stir the dish from the outside of the container, put it back into cook, close the door and adjust the timer again. Determining the cooking degree Given that the food surface does not brown in the same way as traditional cooking, you will have to learn how to determine the cooking degree for some foods differently. Food cooked by microwave should generally be taken out of the oven before being completely cooked, cooking will be completed after a few minutes standing time in between taking it from the oven and serving the dish at the table. Standing time The standing time varies according to the type and volume of the dish and can be from 2 to 3 minutes
for some vegetables, and up to 10-15 minutes for roast meats and stews. The standing time enables the food cooking to be completed and ensures an even distribution of heat. Defrosting The defrosting programme of your microwave oven allows easy and convenient defrosting of both frozen and deep frozen food. The electromagnet energy heats the external surface of the food and this heat slowly spreads towards the centre. This process allows food to be defrosted evenly. Other than defrosting, this programme is also useful for slower more moderate cooking requirements. Soups, stews and some sauces can be cooked in the defrosting programme to enable flavours to be mixed and for tenderizing meat. Dishes that have a lot of milk, cheese or eggs can be cooked in the defrosting programme so as to avoid any hardening. How do you use the defrosting programme? 1. Place the food in the microwave oven and close the door 2. Turn the power selector button into the "DEFROSTING" position. 3. Adjust the time to the time required: 4. Close the door. The oven light will switch on as soon as it begins to operate. 5. Once the selected time has elapsed or if you open the door, the light switches off and the microwave transmission stops. Microwave cooking advice Never use metal equipment such as sauce pans or aluminium foil . Or dishes with gold or silver decoration. Cover the plate with microwave cling film or parchment paper. After cooking, leave the dish to stand, the heat and steam will be diffused giving the food more texture and flavour. Caution, when seasoning, microwave cooking emits flavours and causes a mineral salt taste. (1) Return to moderate cooking for the time indicated. Check the dish from time to time to obtain thedesired result. See cooking level. Cleaning and maintenance Always ensure that your oven is not in operation before cleaning it by removing the plug from the
socket. Ensure that the internal area of the oven is clean and dry. Internal walls The internal walls of the oven are metal painted, remove splashes and splatters, as well as any condensation moisture, with a soft cloth Food splatters can be removed with a paper napkin or with a damp cloth. Remove grease stains with a cloth dampened with soap, then rinse and dry. Do not use any abrasive materials as this may scratch or damage the paint. Never pour water in to the oven or any other liquid that is likely to cause damage, in particular to the drive motor for the glass plate. Door Splatters on the internal side of the door, as well as on the door joints and the surrounding area should be cleaned daily with warm soapy water, then rinsed and dried carefully. It is recommended that the metal parts of the door are maintained with a damp cloth. Do not use a brush, a scouring pad or an abrasive cloth. In the event of damage to the door joints or surrounding area, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by an authorised after-sales service technician approved by the manufacturer. External surface The external surface of the oven is metal painted. Clean this area with a cloth dampened with warm soapy water, then rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not allow water into the ventilation inlets on the sides and to the rear of the oven. In the event of a breakdown. If the internal light is not operating, ensure that: 1. the power outlet is properly driven and supplied by the line current (condition of fuse), 2. the door of your microwave oven is properly closed, 3. the timer has been adjusted, 4. the oven has not over-heated and in thermal shutdown due to the automatic oven cut-off protection, in this event, wait for it to cool down before operating the oven again. If the internal light is operating, but the oven isn’t ensure that: 1. the power selector has been properly adjusted, 2. the plate is rotating normally.
Caution! Do not operate the oven if the plate is not rotating after turning on to avoid food being partially reheated. If the oven is not operating correctly, contact a specialist to carry out any necessary work. In no event, should the back or any other component of the microwave oven be dismantled, except by a technician approved by the manufacturer, for carrying out maintenance or repairs. The microwave oven is only intended for household use; it should not be used for professional commercial or industrial purposes. Keep these instructions in a safe place
