This appliance complies with all relevant legal safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage. To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these instructions carefully before installation and before using it for the first time.
Safety with children ~ Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Keep children away from the appliance at all times to avoid the risk of injury.
~ Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and rated load) match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Correct use Caution! Danger of burning. The oven interior will become very hot when operating with functions which do not use microwave power and also combination programmes which do use microwave power. ~ Use oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc.
~ Never heat undiluted alcohol in the microwave, as this can easily ignite. If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and even to ignite on the hot heating elements. Alcohol should be burnt off before the dish is placed in the oven to avoid this danger.
~ The microwave combination oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting items. Items can get extremely hot and there is a danger of burning when the item is removed. ~ Before serving, remember to allow a sufficient standing time and then always check the temperature of the actual food itself after taking it out of the microwave.
~ Make sure that you only use microwave safe containers when using the Microwave (Solo) function or a combination programme which uses microwave power. Observe the instructions given in "Suitable containers for microwave ovens". ~ Ovenproof earthenware can retain a considerable amount of moisture.

Accessories supplied Glass tray The glass tray is suitable for use with all cooking functions. Always use the glass tray when using the Microwave (Solo) function. Do not place items weighing more t h a n8k go ni t . Do not place the hot glass tray on a cold surface, such as a tiled or granite worktop.
When pushing the rack back in, always ensure that the safety notches are at the rear of the oven (see illustration). To remove the rack, lift it upwards slightly at the front when the safety notches connect with the sides of the oven. We recommend using the rack together with the glass tray when cooking items on the rack which might drip.
Functions Use Microwave _ (Solo) For defrosting, reheating and cooking food quickly. Functions without microwave For cooking food when a crisp finish is required. Combination programmes (with microwave) The combination programmes enable food to be reheated and cooked quickly with even browning results.
Safety features Use System lock The system lock prevents the appliance being used by children, for example. Safety cut-out A function without microwave can be started without selecting a cooking duration. To prevent overuse and the consequent danger of fire, the appliance switches off automatically after a certain length of time.
_ Microwave In a microwave oven there is a high- frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior and rebound off the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides.
Functions which do not use microwave energy U Fan Plus This system works by the circulation of heated air. As the heated air reaches the food straight away, temperatures are lower than those needed for "Conventional heat" where the heat is directed at the food from above and below.
Before the oven can be used, you will need to – release the controls by pressing them if they are retracted when delivered. – set the time of day. Setting the time of day The time of day can only be entered when the function selector is at "0".
Cleaning and heating up for the first time Remove any protective foil from the front of the appliance. See "Cleaning and care" for more information. Before using the appliance for the first time, – take all accessories out of the oven and wash them.
Microwaves – are reflected by metal, – pass through glass, porcelain, plastic and card, – and are absorbed by food. Material and shape The material and shape of containers used affect cooking results and times. Heat distribution is more even in round and oval shaped flat containers than in rectangular containers, providing better results.
Exceptions: The rack supplied with the appliance is suitable for use with microwave power (combination programmes). However, it must not be placed on the oven floor. – Metal baking trays can be used with combination programmes which use microwave power.
Wood Wooden dishes are not suitable. Moisture contained in the wood evaporates when exposed to microwave energy, causing the wood to dry and crack. Plastics Only plastic containers and plastic disposable containers which are specified by the manufacturer as suitable for use in a microwave oven may be used.
Testing dishes for their suitability If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or porcelain plates or dishes are suitable for use in a microwave oven, a simple test can be performed: ^ Insert the glass tray in the oven at the lowest shelf level and place the empty item you wish to test on the glass tray.
A cover (optional accessories) – prevents too much steam escaping, especially when cooking foods which need longer to cook, such as potatoes. – speeds up the cooking process. – prevents food from drying out. – helps keep the oven interior clean.
