1.4 ACCESSORIES (based on model)

The grill rack (1.4.1) Allows you to toast, brown or grill. The grill rack must never be used with other metal containers in microwave, grill + microwave or fan + microwave mode. However, you can heat food in an aluminium tray by isolating it from the rack using a plate.

The glass drip pan (1.4.2) It can be used half filled with water for boiling food with fan heat. It can serve as a cooking dish.

Note: Make sure to centre the drip pan in

the side racks so that the airflow does not change.

The grill rack + the glass drip pan (1.4.3) To roast and save the cooking juices, place the grill rack on the drip pan.

The shelf runners (1.4.4) 2 shelf supports allow you to use the rack at 3 heights.

The turntable plate (1.4.5) The turntable plate allows even cooking of the food without having to handle it. It rotates in both directions. If it does not rotate, verify that all components are properly positioned. It can be used as a cooking dish. To remove it, take hold of it by using the access areas in the cavity. The turntable allows the glass plate to turn. If you remove the turntable, avoid getting water in the motor shaft hole. Do not forget to put the turntable, the roller frame and the glass turntable plate back in. Do not attempt to manually turn the glass plate as this may damage the drive system. If it does not turn properly, check that there is nothing underneath the plate stopping it from turning.

Stopping the turntable.

If the plate is set to the stop position, large dishes can be placed on the entire surface of the oven. In this case you will need to manually turn the container or mix its contents mid-program.

1.5 OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Microwaves used for cooking are electromagnetic waves. They are commonly found in our environment in the form of radio waves, light, or infrared radiation. Their frequency is in the 2450 MHz band. This is how they work: They are reflected by metals. They pass through any other material. They are absorbed by water, fat and sugar molecules. When food is exposed to microwaves, this results in a rapid agitation of its molecules, which makes the food heat up. The depth of penetration of the waves into the food is about 2.5 cm. If the food is thicker, cooking at its centre occurs by conduction just like traditional cooking. In essence, microwaves are simply causing a thermal change inside the food and are therefore not harmful to health.

2.1 UNPACKING When you receive the appliance, unpack it or have it unpacked immediately. Check its general appearance. Make a note of any reservations on the delivery slip and keep a copy. Remove all protective packing. Check and follow the appliances specifications which are listed on the data plate (2.1.1)

2.2 CHOICE OF LOCATION AND FITTING This appliance must be installed in a cabinet column as shown in the installation diagram (2.2.1 to 2.2.3). Do not use your appliance immediately (wait for about 1 to 2 hours) after transferring it from a cold place to a warm place, as condensation may cause a malfunction. Centre the oven in the cabinet so as to ensure a minimum distance of 10 mm between the appliance and the surrounding unit. The material of the cabinet supporting the appliance must be heat resistant (or covered with a heat-resistant material). For greater stability, attach the oven to the unit with 2 screws through the holes provided in the side panels.

2.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Warning: Installation should only be performed by qualified installers and technicians. The appliance must be recess-fitted correctly to ensure electrical safety. The electrical connections should be made before the appliance is installed in its housing. Ensure that: - the circuit has sufficient power (16 Amps).

Warning: The safety wire (green-yellow) is

connected to the appliances terminal and must be connected to the installations earth. If the oven malfunctions in any way, unplug it or remove the fuse for the circuit where the oven is installed. We cannot accept liability for any accident or incident resulting from non-existent, defective or incorrect grounding. If the electrical installation of your home requires a modification to connect the appliance, call a qualified electrician.

During maintenance, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains, the fuses must be switched off or removed.
