All packaging materials used are environmentally friendly and can be
recycled. The cardboard is made from recycled paper and the wooden
parts are untreated. Plastic items are marked as follows :
«PE» polyethylene eg packaging film
¤
)
!
¤
)
«PS» polystyrene eg packaging (CFC-free)
«PP» polypropylene eg packaging straps
By using and re-using the packaging, raw materials are saved and waste
volume is reduced.
Packaging should be taken to your nearest recycling centre. Contact your
local council for information.
Disposal of old appliances
Old appliances should be made safe before disposal by removing the
plug, and cutting off and disposing of the power cable.

Microwaves
• Whenever heating liquid, please also place a teaspoon in the container
to avoid delayed boiling.
During delayed boiling, the boiling temperature is attained without the
typical steam bubbles rising. When the container is shaken, even gently,
the liquid may then suddenly vigorously boil over or spurt - with the risk
of scalding the user.
• Food with «skin» or «peel», such as potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, and
the like, should be pierced with a fork so that any steam present can
escape and the food will not burst.
• Make sure that a minimum temperature of 70°C is attained for the
cooking / heating of food. Never use a mercury or liquid thermometer for
measuring the temperature of the food.
• Baby food in jars or bottles should always be heated without a lid or top,
and well stirred or shaken after heating, to ensure uniform distribution of
the heat. Always check the temperature before feeding your child to
avoid burns.
• The hot food in a microwave oven will heat up the ovenware. For this
reason always use oven gloves for handling hot dishes.
• Never cook your food for too long or at too high a power setting. Some
areas of the food can dry out or even ignite.
• Do not use porcelain or ceramic crockery, or porous earthenware (e.g. on
the handles or unglazed bases) in your microwave as these types of
dishes can absorb moisture from the food as it is cooking. This can cause
vapour pressure to build up which could shatter the dish.
• WARNING: be sure to remove the cap or lid before cooking foods or heating
liquids in a sealed bottle or container, which could otherwise explode.
Do not use your microwave oven for the following :
!
• to boil eggs or escargots in their shells, as they will burst. Eggs can be
poached in a microwave oven as long as the yolks are pricked.
• to heat large quantities of cooking oil (fondue or deep frying) and drinks
containing a high percentage of alcohol - there is danger of
spontaneous combustion !
• to heat unopened cans, bottles, etc.
• to dry animals, textiles or paper.

away from the appliance.
• The cooking area, the grill heating elements, the rack, and the turntable
become very hot during all modes. Make sure you use oven gloves to
handle dishes, and remember to use only ovenproof cookware such as
ceramic dishes or heat resistant glass. Do not touch heating elements
inside the oven.
Take care not to be burned !
• Preheat your oven only when grilling or using the convection functions,
never when microwaving nor in the combined modes of microwave +
grill or microwave + convection cooking.

General operating instructions
What else to note
•
Food comes in all shapes, sizes and textures. The quantities also
vary. For these reasons the time and amount of energy needed to
defrost, heat or cook will also vary. As a general rule :
i
Double the quantity/weight = nearly double the time*
*Please refer to the cooking charts. To be on the safe side, always
select the shorter cooking time. Then extend the time as necessary.
•
•
Microwaves work by making the food heat itself up. Because of this, not
all areas of the food will be heated at the same time.When heating larger
quantities of food, it is particularly important to stir or turn them over.
“Standing time” is referred to in the cooking charts.This is the time you
should leave the food to stand without power (either inside or outside the
appliance). This ensures even distribution of heat throughout the food.

Modes of operation
The appliance features the following functions:
Microwave
In this mode, microwaves generate heat directly in the food. This
mode is highly suitable for warming, for example, ready cooked
food and drinks, the defrosting of meat or vegetables, and for
cooking food like fish and vegetables.
Grilling
Heat is generated by a grilling element set in the roof of the oven.
This is particularly suitable for toasting and grilling e.g. steaks
and sausages.
Convection cooking
A fan in the back wall of the oven circulates the air around a
circular heating element allowing you to cook as with a traditional
oven, with or without preheating the oven.
Combination modes
The microwave mode can be used together with the grill or
convection function. Dishes will be cooked more quickly, whilst
being crisp and brown at the same time.

Practical Tips
General
• After switching off your appliance, let food stand for a few minutes to allow even
heat distribution (standing time).
• Remove any aluminium foil or packaging containing metal and/or accessories
before preparing food (unless specifically stated).
• Metal objects must be placed at least 2 cm away from the cooking space walls and
door. Otherwise arcing can occur, resulting in damage to the appliance.
• Check food frequently when grilling.
Cooking
• Whenever possible cook food covered. Only pastry dishes with a crust should be
cooked uncovered.
• Refrigerated or frozen food require longer cooking times.
• Foods containing sauces should be stirred from time to time.
• Cook hard vegetables such as carrots, peas and cauliflower with a little water.
• Cook soft vegetables such as mushrooms, peppers and tomatoes without liquid.
• Increase cooking time by approximately 50% for larger pieces. Whenever possible,
cut vegetables into equal-sized pieces.
Defrosting of meat, poultry and fish
• Place frozen, unpacked meat on an inverted plate in a glass or porcelain container, or
use a sieve, so that the meat juice can drain.
• Halfway through defrosting, turn the food, dividing it where possible and removing
the pieces that have defrosted.
Defrosting of butter, pieces of layer cake and cottage cheese
• Do not fully defrost in the appliance, but allow to complete defrosting outside the
appliance. This will give a more even result.
Defrosting of fruit and vegetables
• Fruit and vegetables that are to be used raw later should not be fully defrosted in the
appliance, but left to complete defrosting at room temperature outside the microwave oven.
• Fruit and vegetables that are to be cooked immediately afterwards can be cooked
directly on a higher power level without defrosting.
Ready made meals
• Ready made meals in metal packages or plastic containers with metal lids should be
heated or defrosted in your microwave oven only if they are explicitly marked as
being suitable for microwave use. Please follow the operating instructions printed
on the packages (e.g. remove the metal lid and pierce the plastic film).

Cooking charts and tips
Tips on microwaving
i
1. You can’t find cooking details
for a specific quantity of food.
Base programming on a similar type
of food. Lengthen or shorten the
cooking time accordingly:
Double quantity = almost double time
Half quantity = half time
2. The food is too dry.
Set a shorter cooking time or
reduce the microwave power level
setting.
3. The food is not yet defrosted,
heated through or cooked on
completion of programme
time.
Select a longer programme time or
a higher microwave power setting.
Note that larger food will require a
longer time.
4. The food is overcooked on
the outside and undercooked
in the middle on completion
of cooking time.
Try a lower power setting for a longer
time. Stir liquids, such as soup,
periodically.

Cooking charts and tips
Notes on the baking table
The range of baking temperatures and times given are for guidance only,
as they are dependent upon the composition of the dough, the quantity and
the baking tin size and material.We recommend that you start by using the
lower temperature setting. Only select a higher temperature if, for example,
you want to brown food more, or if the baking is taking too long.
If you cannot find specific instructions for one of your recipes, follow the
instructions for one which is similar.
Unless otherwise stated, the settings given in the table are for use in a cold
oven. “Residual heat” refers to leaving the cooked dish to stand for a short
time in the appliance at the end of a cook programme.
Baking tips

Cleaning and care
i
The Appliance Exterior
Wipe the front of the appliance using a soft cloth and a mild, warm
detergent solution.
Do not use abrasive cleaning substances, strong detergents or coarse
abrasive cleaning materials.
Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaner.
Cooking area
Failure to clean the appliance regularly may damage its surfaces, reduce
durability and lead to hazardous operation. Remember to clean your appliance
after use and remove any food residue. The interior will remain in good condition
for a long time so long as you don't use scouring pads or rough abrasive
materials. Use mild dishwashing liquid to clean the interior, with special attention
to the door seal and adjoining area.
The grill heating element is built into the appliance and cannot be removed. The
element may be stained with spattered fat or oil while the oven is in use. Wait
until the cavity cools down and wipe off the spattered oil before the oven is used
again. Stained grills may cause unpleasant odours and smoke.
You can neutralise odours inside the cooking area by boiling a cup of water with
a little lemon juice for a few minutes in your oven.
Through normal operation, liquid may evaporate and condensation may occur.
This is normal and is especially noticeable when the room temperature is high
and the humidity of the air is low. After operation, be sure and wipe off the
condensation with a soft cloth.
Turntable and Turntable support
The turntable can be removed for easy
cleaning.Wells are provided on both sides
for easy access.
Clean the turntable using washing-up liquid,
or put it in the dishwasher. Clean the
turntable support with washing-up liquid.
These should be removed and cleaned straight after each use.
Care of accessories
Place the wire rack and/or glass pie dish in soapy water immediately
after use so they may be easily cleaned with a sponge.
