INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new appliance, 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
•The appliance may only 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 appliance (food) to avoid damage. If you would like to practice using the various functions, place a cup of water inside the oven.
•Do not use the appliance if the turntable ring and glass tray are not installed.
•Never cook food directly on the glass turntable; always use a suitable container.
•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 appliance could be switched on even if the door is not closed. If the door is open, you risk being exposed to microwave radiation.
•Never prop the door open.
•Do not use the appliance if there are cleaning agent residues inside it.
•Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the appliance when it is in use. Children must not be allowed to use the appliance unless supervised by an adult.
•When using combination cooking the appliance can get very hot.
•Do not use the appliance 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.
•Never try to repair the appliance yourself.
•If the appliance, cable or plug needs to be repaired, it should be taken to an authorised service centre. Unauthorised repairs or modifications will invalidate the guarantee. Please contact the store where you bought the appliance for repairs under guarantee.
Positioning the appliance
•Avoid blocking the ventilation slots on the top, sides and back.
•Do not place the appliance or the cord near hot areas, for example gas rings and electric hotplates.
•Do not remove the feet.
•This appliance is designed to be freestanding. Always ensure the vent holes on top of the cabinet are not covered. If they are covered while the appliance is in use, there is a risk of it overheating. Do not use before it has cooled down.
Important safety measures when preparing food!
•If using the appliance to heat baby food or liquids in a feeding bottle, you must always stir the food/liquid and check the temperature thoroughly before serving.
This ensures that the heat is evenly distributed and avoids scalding injuries.
•Do not leave lid and/or teat must not be fitted on feeding bottles when placed in the appliance.
•If some foods are heated too long, they may char and give off smoke. If this happens, you should leave the oven door closed and switch off the appliance completely.
•Some foods with low water content, e.g. chocolate in squares and pastries with a sweet filling, should be heated carefully, otherwise they or the container may be ruined.
Fire hazard!
•To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven compartment, please note the
following points:
oDo 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.
oMetal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can cause sparks and must therefore be removed.
o Never heat oil or fat in the appliance.
oIf materials in the appliance catch fire, leave the door closed. Switch off immediately, and remove the plug from the wall socket.

PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
Each individual appliance is checked at the factory, but for safety’s sake, after unpacking it, you should check carefully that it has not been damaged during transport. Check whether there is any visible damage (e.g. in the form of dents or similar), if the door closes properly, if it is intact and if the hinges are in order. If the appliance appears to have been damaged, contact the shop where you bought it, and do not use it until it has been checked by an authorised specialist.
Before use, check that you have removed all packaging inside and out.
Positioning the appliance
The appliance must stand on a flat surface capable of bearing its weight (approx
12.5kg). There must be a clearance of at least 10 cm at the rear, 5 cm at the sides and 20 cm above to ensure sufficient ventilation.
Connection
The appliance must be connected to a 230-volt AC current, 50 Hz. The guarantee is not valid if it is connected to the wrong voltage. When the power to the oven is connected, the display (3) will show "1:01", the dots between the numbers will flash, and the clock indicator will appear in the top right corner.
Setting the clock
1.Press the "Clock" button (c). The clock indicator begins to flash, and the hour number is shown.
2.Set clock to 12- or 24-hour setting using the "Clock" button.
3.Turn the "Time/Menu" (i) dial to set hours.
4.Press the "Clock" button; the minute number is shown at the side of the hour number.
5.Turn the "Time/Menu" button to set the minute number.
6.Press the "Clock" button to complete the setting.
7.The two dots between the numbers begin to flash, and the clock indicator stops flashing, which means the clock is running.
