GB 91 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 92 Recommendations · Your appliance is designed solely for household use - cooking, heating or defrosting foodstuffs. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any other inappropriate use of the oven. · Before you use your microwave oven, make sure that all the recipients and accessories are suitable for use with it (e.g. flameproof glass, porcelain, etc.). · To avoid damaging your unit, never turn it on when it is empty .or if the support plate is not in place. · Do not touch the openings in the locks on the front; this may damage to the oven requiring outside repair. · Keep a close eye on the oven when products are heated or cooked in containers made of disposible plastic, paper or any other combustible material. They may be subject to spontaneous burning. · We do not recommend using metal recipients, knives, forks or spoons or metal staples used on defrosting sachets. However, it is possible to heat up food in covered aluminium trays provided they are fairly shallow (no more than 4 cm high). They will take slightly longer to heat. Make sure the tray is in the middle, on the bottom and .there is at least 1 cm between the sides of the tray and the metal .walls and door. · For babies: - Baby bottles must be heated without the teat, the liquid must be shaken and its temperature checked with the back of the hand before being given to the child. - Baby food must be mixed and its temperature checked before being given to the child to avoid any risks of possibly serious internal burning. WARNING: Do not let children use the oven unattended unless they have received appropriate instructions and can use the oven correctly, understanding the danger of improper oven use. · We recommend you to cover your food in most cases; it will be tastier and your unit will remain clean longer. However, before cooking food or heating drinks in a bottle or any hermetically closed container, remove the cork or lid to avoid any risks of explosion. · Avoid heating or cooking whole, poached, or fried eggs, as they may burst, causing serious burns and irreparable oven damage. · Liquids may boil without bubbles appearing at the surface. To avoid spilling and risks of burns, wait 20 seconds before taking the container out of the oven or putting anything whatsoever in it to prevent splashing. · For small items (sausages, croissants, etc.), place a glass of water beside the food. · Cooking times that are too long will dry out the food and burn it. To avoid this, never use the same cooking times as you use for your traditional oven. · If you see any smoke coming out, keep the oven door closed, turn the oven off and disconnect it. 92 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 93 Your oven w GB STAR START STOP STOP 1 1 2 3 4 2 3 4 5 6 5 6 7 7 End cooking Independent timer Programme selector START/STOP button Time and temperature setting Temperature/power setting Cooking time The oven programmer 1 w 2 6 1 2 3 Wattage indicator Clock and time display Temperature indicator 5 4 5 6 4 3 Timer indicator End cooking indicator Cooking time indicator 93 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 94 Accessories Reversible oven shelf Inversing this shelf will let you gain extra height inside the oven.

You can, however, warm up food in an aluminium tray by putting it on a plate before it is placed on the grill. Glass dish It can be put at the bottom of your oven for catching any juice or fat dripping from food cooked on the grill. It can also be used for the functions , To keep your oven clean after all cooking modes, put the glass dish at the bottom of the oven. Never touch pans with bare hands after cooking. 94 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 95 Oven installation GB Connection Electrical connections must be made as per the connection plate fixed to the back of the appliance, by an electrical fitter, who must ensure that the appliance has been connected up in accordance with fitting instructions and local regulations. Where the appliance is not connected to the mains electricity supply by a plug, an omni polar cutout device (with a contacts gap of at least 3 mm) must be fitted on the supply side of the connection to meet safety requirements. NOTE: When power is connected, the electronics of the oven are initialised; this neutralizes the lighting for a few seconds. If the oven is connected to the power supply by a plug, this must remain accessible once the oven has been installed. We cannot accept any liability in the event of an accident resulting from non-existent or faulty earthing.

For any repairs requiring the removal of a protective cover providing protection against exposure to microwaves, only qualified staff can work on the appliance without the risk of danger. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the after-sales service department or similarly qualified personnel in order to avoid all risks of danger. 95 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 96 Dimensions for installation The oven has an high-performance air circulation system which gives remarkable results for cooking and cleaning, as long as the following points are applied: The oven may be fitted either underneath a work surface or in a suitable sized column unit. Cut a hole measuring 50 mm x 50 mm in the back wall of the insert space for the electric cable to pass through (See diagram, left). Centre the oven in the unit, and make sure that it is at least 2 mm from any other unit beside it. The unit must be heat-resistant (or covered with heat-resistant material). The oven must be disconnected from the power supply while it is being installed in the unit. For greater stability, fix the oven in the unit with 2 screws in the holes on the side walls (see diagram). Make a 3 mm diameter hole in the side of the unit first to prevent the wood from splitting. 20 50 22 548 595 555 380 376 388 560-568 550 380 min i 10 50 550 mini 560-568 400 310 96 99634252_ML_A.qxd 19/11/04 15:06 Page 97 Oven use Setting the clock When the oven is first . sw i t c h e d o n a t t h e m a i n s · The display blinks. · Press the + and - buttons (Keeping a finger on the button, rather than tapping it, is quicker).

The microwave is the deep-freeze's best ally, as it enables you to defrost your frozen food up to ten times quicker than by just leaving it in the open air. Recommendations : - Defrosting times vary depending on the type of appliance. They also depend on the size, shape, initial temperature and quality of the food. - Make sure that you remove any metallic attachments on food packaging when defrosting. - If there are any ice crystals on the food, scrape them off beforehand with a knife. Otherwise the ice will create a screen and slow down defrosting. - Put meat or fish on an overturned saucer for defrosting. This enables any juice liable to trigger off a cooking process by being in contact with the food to drip away. - To make defrosting as homogeneous as possible, separate chicken escalopes, fish fillets, or pieces of meat as soon as you can. - Turn the food over or mix it up when it is half-defrosted. - Leave food to rest after defrosting it. Normally the rest time = defrosting time. - Never refreeze any defrosted food before it has been cooked.
