What you Should Know about Microwave Operation

• Your appliance works with microwave radiation, which heats up water
particles in food in a very short time. There is no heat radiation and
therefore hardly any browning.
• Only food should be heated up with this appliance.
• The appliance is not suitable for baking in floating fat.
• Only 1 - 2 portions should be heated up at the same time. Otherwise
the microwave will become less efficient.
• Microwaves provide their full energy levels immediately. Pre-heating is
therefore not necessary.
• Never operate the microwave function when the oven is empty.
• The microwave oven does not replace your traditional cooker. It is used
mainly for:
- defrosting deep-frozen food
- rapid warming / heating of food or drinks
- cooking meals.

Initial Operation

Installation Instructions

• Install the appliance with the back of the appliance facing the wall.
• Maintain the following safety clearances:
- 10 cm to the back
- 10 cm to both sides
- 30 cm to the top of the microwave.
• In order to avoid interference with the operation of other appliances, do
not place your appliance near other electronic appliances.

Preparation

1. Use the handle to open the door.
2. Remove any accessories from the cooking chamber and unpack.
3. If not yet done: Place the drive shaft on the center of the bottom inside
the oven.
4. Install the guide ring in the center.
5. Position the glass rotating plate in such a way that its lower recesses
lock onto the center of the drive shaft.
6. Make sure the mains voltage to be used corresponds to the voltage of
the appliance. Check the rating label for specifications.
7. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed power socket.
CAUTION:
• Do not remove any installed parts from inside the oven or from inside
the door!
• The mica sheet (1) is also part of the appliance and must not be
removed. It protects the electronic component located behind it from
dirt.
NOTE:
If there are manufacturing or oil remains on the enclosure or heating
element, smoke or odor might occur during the beginning operation.
This is normal and will cease after repeated use.
We strongly recommend proceeding as follows:
• Turn on the grill mode and let the appliance operate several times
without food to be cooked.
• Ensure sufficient ventilation.

Operating the Microwave

1. Place the food to be heated in a suitable piece of tableware.
2. Open the door and place the vessel in the middle of the glass plate.
Then close the door. (For safety reasons the oven only operates when
the door is tightly closed.)

4. Use the timer to set the desired cooking time between 1 minute and
30 minutes. The cooking time depends on the quantity and constit-
uency of the contents of the oven. With a little practice you will soon
learn to estimate the cooking time.
NOTE:
• Preparation of food in a microwave oven is very much faster than in a
conventional cooker. Set the cooking time to a low level if you are not
sure and continue cooking again if necessary.
• Once the cooking time is set the oven switches itself on. The light
inside the oven goes on.
• Please note: A cover should be placed over the food when operating
the microwave.
5. When the time has finished the oven switches off automatically.
A sound is heard. The food should then be removed.

Pause or Cancel Cooking

• If you want to interrupt the cooking process, simply open the door.
• To continue cooking, close the door.
• To abort the process completely, set the timer to position "0".

Heating

Warming and heating are special characteristics of microwaves. Refriger-
ated liquids and foods can be easily warmed up to room or eating temper-
ature without having to use a lot of pots.
The heating times in the following table are for reference only, as the time
depends very much on the original temperature and the texture of the
food. It is therefore recommended to check once in a while whether the
food is hot enough.
