- 2 -  
 
Under no circumstances should you remove the  
microwave oven housing.  
Before consumption, check the temperature, so  
as to avoid a potentially life-threatening scalding  
for babies.  
Cooking utensils may become hot from the heat  
emitted by the food, so that you may require oven  
gloves to touch them. In this case, a check should  
also be made to ensure that the cooking utensils  
are suitable for use with the microwave oven.  
Should the lamp in the interior of the microwave  
oven need replacing, arrange for this to be done  
by a qualified specialist.  
Never touch the microwave oven door, housing,  
ventilation openings, accessories or the dinnerware  
directly after the grill, combi or automatic menu  
process. The parts will be very hot. Allow them  
to cool down before cleaning them.  
Attention! Hot surfaces!  
Risk of fire  
Ensure that the plug is at all times easily accessible,  
so that it can be quickly removed in the event of  
an emergency.  
Never leave the microwave oven unattended if  
you are heating foodstuffs packed in plastics or  
paper.  
People fitted with a heart pacemaker should consult  
their doctor about the possible risks of using a micro-  
wave oven before taking one into use.  
Never place flammable materials close to the  
microwave oven or the ventilation openings.  
Remove ALL metallic closures from the packaging  
of the foodstuff that you intend to warm up.  
Risk of fire!  
Do not allow the power cable to hang from a table  
or work surface. Children could pull on it.  
After they have been warmed up, always open  
containers, popcorn-bags etc. with the opening  
pointing away from your body. Escaping steam  
could lead to scalds.  
When making popcorn, use only popcorn-bags  
suitable for microwave ovens.  
Do not use the microwave oven to warm up cushions  
filled with kernels, cherry stones or gels.  
Risk of fire!  
Never stand directly against the microwave oven  
when opening the door. Escaping steam could  
lead to scalds.  
Do not use the microwave oven for storing foodstuffs  
or other objects.  
Do not fry in the microwave. Hot oil can damage  
parts of the appliance and utensils and even  
cause skin burns.  
Do not exceed the cooking times detailed by the  
manufacturer.  
Always shake-up or stir warmed up baby glasses  
or bottles! The contents could have heated up  
unevenly and the baby could be burned/scalded  
by them. At all events, check their temperature  
before feeding them to the baby!  
Do not place any objects on the microwave oven  
when it is in use. The ventilation openings would  
be blocked!

Danger  
Clean the microwave oven thoroughly after warming  
up greasy foods, especially if they were not covered.  
Allow the appliance to cool down completely  
before cleaning it. Residues such as fat or grease  
cannot be allowed to collect on the heating  
elements of the grill. They could possibly ignite.  
Never submerse the appliance, the power cable  
or the plug in water or other fluids.  
Keep the power cable away from hot surfaces.  
Do not lead it in front of the microwave oven door.  
The heat could damage the cable.  
Do not thaw frozen fat or oil in the microwave oven.  
The fat or oil could ignite.  
Never pour fluids into the ventilation openings  
or the safety locks. Should fluids ever enter them,  
immediately switch the microwave oven off and  
remove the plug from the mains power socket.  
Arrange for the appliance to be checked by  
qualified specialists.  
Do not use an external timing switch or a separate  
remote control system to operate the appliance.  
Important! Appliance Damage!  
Safety tips  
Do not use the microwave oven when it is empty.  
The only exception is for the initial commissioning  
(see chapter "Commissioning").  
To minimize the risk of fire in the microwave:  
When heating food in plastic or paper containers,  
always keep an eye on the microwave when it  
is in operation, as these materials can catch fire.  
Never insert foreign objects into the ventilation  
openings or the door safety locks.  
When heating drinks in the microwave, bubbling  
may be delayed when the drink boils. Therefore,  
be careful when handling the container.  
To avoid sudden simmering:  
Do not use metallic utensils which reflect micro-  
waves and lead to sparking. Do not place tins  
in the microwave oven.  
Do not place plastic containers in the microwave  
oven immediately after a grill, combi or automatic  
menu process. The plastic could melt.  
- If possible, place a glass rod in the fluid for as  
long as it is being heated.  
This microwave oven may not be located in areas  
with high humidity or where moisture could collect.  
- To avoid an unexpected reboiling, leave the  
fluid to stand in the microwave oven for  
ca. 20 seconds after being warmed up.  
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in air-  
tight containers, as these may explode and  
damage the appliance.  
Puncture the skins of potatoes, sausages or similar.  
Otherwise, they could explode.  
Do not lean on the microwave oven door.  
Proceed with caution when warming up fluids.  
Use only open containers, so that any air bubbles  
produced can escape.  
Insufficient cleanliness of the appliance could lead  
to the destruction of the upper surfaces, which  
themselves influence its useful lifespan and could  
possibly also lead to dangerous situations.  
Should you notice smoke, switch the appliance  
off or remove the plug from the socket and  
keep the door closed to suffocate any possible  
flames.  
- 4 -  
 
Plug the microwave into another wall socket.  
The microwave and the receiver should be  
connected to different circuits.  
Eggs in their shells and hard-boiled eggs should  
not be heated in the microwave oven as they  
could explode, even on completion of the heating  
process. Food with thick skins, such as potatoes,  
whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must be  
pricked before cooking.

containers  
Microwaves cannot permeate metal. For this  
reason metal containers and cookware should  
not be used.  
When using the microwave for heating do not  
use products made of recycled paper. These  
can contain minute fragments of metal, which  
can generate sparks and/or fires.  
Warning:  
Never use the grill stand or other metallic objects  
when you are using the appliance in the microwave  
mode or in the combination cooking process.  
Metals reflect the microwave radiation and it leads  
to the generation of sparks. This could cause a fire  
and irreparably damage the appliance!

Programmes in detail  
Programme 1: Beverages  
This programme runs only with utilisation of micro-  
wave power. Subject to the number of portions, the  
programme runs for between 1:30 and 3:50 minutes.  
• Place the beverage that you wish to heat up on  
the Glass plate 3 in the cooking area. If you  
wish to place several glasses or cups in the  
microwave oven, ensure that the receptacles do  
not touch each other.  
• Open the door and turn the food over. Proceed  
cautiously with the possibly already hot food.  
• Press the button Start/Quickstart q  
the cooking process.  
to continue  
Take note:  
Notice  
If you wish to dispense with turning, simply wait for  
the signal tones to finish. The microwave continues  
your programme automatically after approx. 30  
seconds.  
To avoid sudden simmering:  
If possible, place a glass rod in the fluid for as  
long as it is being heated.  
To avoid an unexpected reboiling, leave the  
fluid to stand in the microwave oven for ca.  
20 seconds after being warmed up.  
Notice  
Should the meal not be properly cooked on completion  
of the auto-menu, continue cooking for a couple of  
minutes with the Quick start programme. For pro-  
grammes that continue with utilisation of the grill  
function (Programme numbers 5, 8 and 9), the food  
can be cooked further with the grill function. Extended  
cooking with the grill function also increases the  
browning level of the food.  
Programme 2: Noodles  
This programme runs only with utilisation of micro-  
wave power.  
Subject to the weight programmed in, this programme  
runs for between 25 and 35 minutes.  
• When cooking noodles use a tall container, as  
there is a great risk of it boiling over.  
Important  
• Use as much water as you would in conventional  
cooking. The noodles should "swim" in the water.  
• First bring the the water to the boil: Set the micro-  
wave to its highest performance level (P800)  
and then start it. For a liter of water you need  
about 10 minutes to bring the water to the boil.  
When using the programes with incorporated grill  
function, under no circumstances should you use any  
form of covering or cookware that is not heat resistant,  
as these could melt or ignite themselves!

• Then add the noodles. After this, you can start  
the auto-menu for noodles.  
• Finally, allow the noodles to stand for approx.  
3 minutes.

side facing upwards could dry out. For this reason  
the microwave oven automatically interrupts the  
programme after about 2/3 of the time has  
elapsed and a signal tone sounds.

for, for example, 200 gr of rice. Use the weight  
adjustment "200g" despite the water. It is always  
the weight of the rice that is to be set.
