INTRODUCTION

To get the best out of your new apparatus, please read this user guide carefully before using it for the first time. Take particular note of the safety precautions. We also recommend that you keep the instructions for future reference.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

General

•Only to be used for its original purpose, i.e. for preparing food for domestic purposes.

•For domestic use only. Not for outdoor or commercial use.

•Always follow the instructions in the "Tips for food preparation" and "Using utensils when preparing food" sections.

•Do not switch on when empty. To able to absorb microwaves,

there must be something in the apparatus (food) to avoid damage.

oIf you would like to practice using the various functions, place a cup of water inside the oven.

•Do not use if the turntable ring and glass turntable are not installed.

•On the right-hand side of the oven compartment there is a mica plate (resembles cardboard); this must not be removed.

•Do not use if the safety locking system is not functioning, which means that the apparatus could be switched on even if the door is not closed. If the door is open, you risk being exposed to microwave radiation.

•Do not use the apparatus if there are cleaning agent residues inside it.

•Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the apparatus when it is in use. Children must not be allowed to use the apparatus unless supervised by an adult.

•Never try to repair the apparatus yourself.

•When the light bulb inside the apparatus needs replacement, please contact the dealer.

•Never insert anything into the ventilation slots or other openings.

•If the apparatus, cable or plug needs to be repaired, it should be taken to an authorised service centre. Unauthorised repairs or modifications to the apparatus will invalidate the guarantee. Please contact the store where you bought the apparatus for repairs under guarantee.

Positioning the apparatus

•Do not place the apparatus or the cord near hot areas, for example gas rings and electric hotplates.

•Do not use the apparatus in damp environments.

•Do not remove the feet.

•Not suitable for fitting in, ensure the vent holes on top of the cabinet are not covered. If they are covered while the apparatus is in use, there is a risk of it overheating. Do not use before it has cooled down.

Use

•Do not use the apparatus if the cable or plug are damaged, if it is not functioning properly, or if it has been damaged by a heavy impact or similar.

•When using combination cooking the apparatus can get very hot.

•Never prepare food directly on the glass tray; always use a suitable container.

Fire hazard!

To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven compartment, please note the following points:

•Do not cook food for too long or at too high a temperature, and do not leave unattended if paper, plastic or other flammable materials have been used with a view to reducing cooking times.

•Metal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can cause sparks and must therefore be removed.

•Never store recipe books or other objects in the apparatus.

•Never heat oil or fat in the apparatus.

•If materials in the apparatus catch fire, leave the door closed. Switch off immediately, and remove the plug from the wall socket.
