• Connect the appliance to a standard
household wall socket. Make sure
that the voltage and frequency of
the socket are compatible with the
data printed on the nominal rating
label.
ƽ Important: Do not install the micro-
wave above a cooker or any other
appliance generating heat. Installa-
tion in such a location could cause
damage to the appliance and lead
to a subsequent lapse of warranty.
• Remove packaging material and any
protective film on the surface of the
casing.
Note: Do not remove the light grey
flimmer cover plate, which is mounted
in the cooking area to protect the
magnetron!
Before you begin
Basic principles of microwave
cookery
• Arrange the food with consideration.
• The thickest parts near the edges.
• Pay attention to the cooking time.
Select the shortest possible stated
cooking time and increase as required.
Food that is cooked too long can
begin to smoke or catch fire.
• Cover the food during cooking with
a lid suitable for microwave cookery.
The lid prevents splashing and helps
in the even cooking of the food.
• During the preparation of food in
the microwave oven turn it once, so
that dishes such as chicken or hambur-
ger are "through" quicker.
• Large pieces of food, such as joints of
meat, must be turned at least once.
• Completely re-arrange foods such as
meatballs after half the cooking
time. Turn them and move the meat-
balls from the middle of the cookware
to the edge.
Use suitable cookware
• The ideal materials for a microwave
cooker are microwave permeable, that
means, they permit the energy to
pass through the container to heat
the food.
Microwaves cannot permeate metal.
Therefore, metal containers and
cookware should not be used.
• When using the microwave for hea-
ting do not use products made of
recycled paper. These can contain
minute fragments of metal, which
can generate sparks and/or fires.
• We recommend the use of
round/oval cookware instead of
square or oblong containers, as food
in corner areas tends to overcook.
The following list is intended to assist
you in selecting the correct cookware.
