IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT HEAT, OR USE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS in or near the oven. Fumes can create a fi re hazard or explosion. DO NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for drying textiles, paper, spices, herbs, wood, fl ow- ers, fruit or other combustible materials. Fire could result. DO NOT OVER-COOK FOOD. Fire could result. DO NOT LEAVE THE OVEN UNATTENDED, espe- cially when using paper, plastic or oth- er combustible materials in the cook- ing process. Paper can char or burn and some plastics can melt if used when heating foods. IF MATERIAL INSIDE / OUTSIDE THE OVEN SHOULD IGNITE OR SMOKE IS OBSERVED, keep oven door closed and turn the oven off . Dis- connect the power cord or shut off pow- er at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE ONLY ALLOW CHILDREN to use the oven without adult supervision after adequate instruc- tions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and un- derstands the hazards of improper use. The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infi rm persons with- out supervision. Young children should be supervised to en- sure that they do not play with the appliance. If your oven has a com- bination mode, children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the high temperatures generated. DO NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for heating anything in airtight sealed contain- ers. The pressure increas- es and may cause damage when opening or may explode. EGGS DO NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for cook- ing or reheating whole eggs with or without shell since they may explode even after microwave heating has ended. THE DOOR SEALS AND THE DOOR SEAL AREAS must be regularly inspected for damage. If these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a trained service technician. DO NOT USE corrosive chemicals or va- pors in this appliance. This type of oven is specifi cally designed to heat or cook food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!

THE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance. IF YOU PRACTICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass of water inside. The water will absorb the mi- crowave energy and the oven will not be dam- aged. REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven. DEEPFRYING DO NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for deep-frying, because the oil temperature cannot be controlled. LIQUIDS E.G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. Overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility the following steps should be taken: 1. Avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks. 2. Stir the liquid before placing the container in the oven and let the teaspoon remain in the container. 3. After heating, allow standing for a short time, stirring again before carefully re- moving the container from the oven. CAREFUL ALWAYS REFER to a microwave cookbook for de- tails. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol. AFTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a baby bottle or in a baby food jar, always stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided. Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed be- fore heating! PRECAUTIONS USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent burns, when touching containers, oven parts, and pan after cooking. DO NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.

IF ACCESSORIES CONTAINING METAL comes in contact

with the oven interior, while the oven is in op- eration, sparking can occur and the oven could be damaged. TURNTABLE SUPPORT USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the Glass turntable. Never put any oth- er utensils on the turntable sup- port. Fit the turntable support in the oven.  GLASS TURNTABLE USE THE GLASS TURNTABLE with all cooking meth- ods. It collects the dripping juic- es and food particles that other- wise would stain and soil the in- terior of the oven. Place the Glass turntable on the turntable  support. ENSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking. WHEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACCESSORIES in the micro- wave oven, ensure that they do not come in contact with the interior of the oven. This is especially important with accesso- ries made of metal or metal parts. ALWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn freely before starting the oven. THERE ARE a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use. START PROTECTION / CHILD LOCK THIS AUTOMATIC SAFETY FUNCTION IS ACTIVATED ONE MINUTE AFTER the oven has returned to “stand by mode“. (The oven is in “stand by” when the 24-hour clock is displayed or if the clock has not been set, when the display is blank). THE DOOR MUST BE OPENED AND CLOSED e.g. putting food into it, before the safety lock is released. Else the display will show “DOOR“. DOOR WHEN A FUNCTION IS FINISHED, the oven carries out a cooling procedure. This is normal. After this procedure the oven switches off au- tomatically. THE COOLING PROCEDURE can be interrupted with- out any harm to the oven by opening the door. COOLING DOWN

er to measure time for various purposes such as cooking eggs or letting the dough rise be- fore baking etc. 1. PRESS THE +/- BUTTONS to set the desired length of the timer. 2. PRESS THE POWER BUTTON repeatedly to set the power to 0 W. 3. PRESS THE START BUTTON. AN ACOUSTIC SIGNAL will be heard when the timer has fi nished to count down. 4. TO TURN THE KITCHEN TIMER OFF before the count- down have fi nished, press the Stop button. CLOCK KEEP THE DOOR OPEN while setting the Clock. This gives you 5 minutes to complete the setting of the Clock. Otherwise, each step must be ac- complished within 30 seconds. 1. PRESS THE CLOCK BUTTON (3 seconds) until the left-hand digit (hour’s) fl icker. 2. PRESS THE +/- BUTTONS to set the hours. 3. PRESS THE CLOCK BUTTON AGAIN. (The two right hand digits (minutes) fl icker). 4. PRESS THE +/- BUTTONS to set the minutes. 5. PRESS THE CLOCK BUTTON AGAIN. THE CLOCK IS SET and in operation.

COOK & REHEAT WITH MICROWAVES

USE THIS FUNCTION for normal cooking and re- heating, such as vegetables, fi sh, potatoes and meat. 1. PRESS THE +/- BUTTONS to set the time. 2. PRESS THE POWER BUTTON repeatedly to set the power. 3. PRESS THE START BUTTON. ONCE THE COOKING PROCESS HAS BEEN STARTED: The time can easily be increased in 30-second steps by pressing the Start button. Each press increases the time with 30 seconds. YOU MAY ALSO ALTER THE TIME by pressing the +/- buttons to increase or decrease the time. PRESSING THE POWER BUTTON may also change the power level. The fi rst press will show you the current power level. Press the power button repeatedly to change power level. POWER LEVEL    MICROWAVES ONLY POWER SUGGESTED USE: 750 W REHEATING OF BEVERAGES, water, clear soups, coff ee, tea or other food with a high water content. If the food contains egg or cream choose a lower power. Cooking of fi sh vege- tables, meat, etc 500 W MORE CAREFUL COOKING e.g. high protein sauces, cheese and egg dishes and to fi nish cook- ing casseroles. 350 W SIMMERING STEWS, melting butter. 160 W DEFROSTING. Softening butter, cheeses and ice cream. 0 W WHEN USING THE TIMER only.

THIS FUNCTION IS USED for quick reheating of food

with a high water content such as; clear soups, coff ee or tea. 1. PRESS THE START BUTTON. THIS FUNCTION AUTOMATICALLY STARTS with maxi- mum microwave power level and the cooking time set to 30 seconds. Each additional press in- creases the time with 30 seconds. YOU MAY ALSO ALTER THE TIME by pressing the +/- buttons to increase or decrease the time. JET START MANUAL DEFROST FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE for “How to cook & reheat with microwaves” and choose power level 160 W when defrosting manually. CHECK AND INSPECT THE FOOD REGULARLY. Experi- ence will give you the times needed for vari- ous amounts. TURN LARGE JOINTS halfway through the defrost- ing process. FROZEN FOOD IN PLASTIC BAGS, plastic fi lms or card- board packages can be placed directly in the oven as long as the package has no met- al parts (e.g. metal twist ties). THE SHAPE OF THE PACKAGE alters the de- frosting time. Shallow packets defrost more quickly than a deep block. SEPARATE PIECES as they begin to defrost. Individual slices defrost more easily. SHIELD AREAS OF FOOD with small pieces of aluminum foil if they start to become warm (e.g. chicken legs and wing tips). BOILED FOOD, STEWS AND MEAT SAUCES defrost better if stirred during defrosting time. WHEN DEFROSTING it is better to under- thaw the food slightly and allow the process to fi nish during standing time. STANDING TIME AFTER DEFROSTING ALWAYS IMPROVES the result since the temperature will then be evenly distribut- ed throughout the food. 

USE THIS FUNCTION for defrosting Meat, Poultry,

Fish, Vegetables and Bread. JET Defrost should only be used if the net weight is between 100 g- 2.0 kg. ALWAYS PLACE THE FOOD on the glass turntable. 1. PRESS THE JET DEFROST BUTTON. 2. PRESS THE + / - BUTTONS to set the weight of the food. 5. PRESS THE START BUTTON. MIDWAY THROUGH THE DEFROSTING PROCESS the oven stops and prompts you to TURN FOOD. Open the door.  Turn the food.  Close the door and restart by pressing the  Start button. NOTE: The oven continues automatically after 2 min. if the food hasn’t been turned. The de- frosting time will be longer in this case. FROZEN FOODS: IF THE FOOD IS WARMER than deep-freeze temperature (-18°C), choose lower weight of the food. IF THE FOOD IS COLDER than deep-freeze temperature (-18°C), choose higher weight of the food. THIS FUNCTION NEEDS TO KNOW the net weight of the food. The oven will then auto- matically calculate the needed time to fi nish the procedure. IF THE WEIGHT IS LESSER OR GREATER THAN RECOMMEND- ED WEIGHT: Follow the procedure for “Cook & Re- heat with microwaves” and choose 160 W when defrosting.   

MAINTENANCE & CLEANING

CLEANING IS THE ONLY MAINTENANCE normally re- quired. DISHWASHER SAFE: TURNTABLE SUPPORT. GLASS TURNTABLE. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE OVEN in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely aff ect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. DO NOT USE METAL SCOURING PADS, ABRASIVE CLEANSERS, steel- wool pads, gritty wash- cloths, etc. which can damage the control pan- el, and the interior and exterior oven sur- faces. Use a sponge with a mild detergent or a paper towel with spray glass cleaner. Apply spray glass cleaner to a paper towel. DO NOT SPRAY directly on the oven. AT REGULAR INTERVALS, especially if spill overs have occurred, remove the turntable, the turntable support and wipe the base of the oven clean. THIS OVEN IS DESIGNED to operate with the turnta- ble in place. DO NOT operate the microwave oven when the turntable has been removed for cleaning. USE A MILD DETERGENT, water and a soft cloth to clean the interior surfaces, front and rear of the door and the door opening. DO NOT ALLOW GREASE or food particles to build up around the door. DO NOT USE STEAM CLEANING APPLIANCES when cleaning your microwave oven. ADDING SOME LEMON JUICE to a cup of water, plac- ing this on the turntable and boiling for a few minutes can eliminate odors inside the oven. FOR STUBBORN STAINS, boil a cup of water in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes. Steam will soften the marks.
