Installation Instructions
Remove oven from packing
Remove all packing materials and accessories from the oven cavity.
Check whether the following parts are in good condition:
-door and hinges;
-front of the oven;
-inside and outside of oven.
Should you find any faults DO NOT USE THE OVEN, and contact your dealer.
Place the oven on a flat stable surface able to support its weight.
Leave an empty space of about 15cm above the upper surface of the oven.
The oven should be kept away from heat and vapour sources (electric oven, toasters, etc.).
The oven has been supplied with a mono-phase power supply cord. The appliance must be
earthed.
The manufacturers and dealers are not responsible for any breakdowns or personal accidents
should these installation instructions not be followed by the purchaser.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Important Information
WARNING: If the door or the door hinges are damaged, the oven should not be switched on
until repaired by a qualified technician.
WARNING: It is dangerous for anyone, except a qualified technician, to tamper with the
apparatus or try to repair it in any way by removing any lid or covering which assures
protection against the exposure to microwave energy.
WARNING: Liquids and other food should not be heated in airtight recipients as these can
explode.
WARNING: Children should only be allowed to use the oven without adult supervision if
they have been given the appropriate instructions so that they can use the oven safely and
understand the dangers of its incorrect use.
When heating food in plastic or paper recipients, check the oven frequently in case they ignite.
If any smoke is detected, then switch off the oven or disconnect it and keep the door closed in
order for any flame to die out.
After warming up baby bottles or baby food jars, stir or shake its contents and check the
temperature before feeding, to avoid burns.
Warming up drinks in the microwave oven may result in a delayed eruptive boiling, therefore one
should be careful when handling the recipient.
Eggs without their shell and whole boiled eggs shouldn’t be warmed up in microwave ovens as
they may explode.
Do not use any metal utensils inside the oven unless they were supplied with the oven and for that
purpose.
Do not warm up liquids or other food in closed recipients as they may explode.
Do not warm up pure alcohol or alcoholic drinks. DANGER OF FIRE.
When in doubt, choose short periods to cook, heat or defrost food with microwaves. With long
cooking periods the food may become dry and even begin to burn.
Do not use the oven for anything other than warming, cooking or defrosting food.
Do not operate the oven without its tray nor when empty.
Keep the oven ventilation holes open. Never cover any air vents or openings.
Description of the Microwave Oven
The advantages of a microwave oven:
In a conventional oven the heat radiated by the resistances or gas burners, slowly penetrates the
food from the outside to the inside. There is, therefore, a great loss of energy in the heating of the
air, oven components and recipients.
On the other hand, in microwave ovens the heat is generated in the interior of the food itself,
heating it from the inside outwards. There is therefore no loss of energy as the air, interior walls of
the oven and recipients (when adequate) do not heat up with microwaves.
In short, microwave ovens have the following advantages:
1. Save on cooking time: in general there is a 3/4 reduction of the cooking time than with
conventional methods.
2. Ultra-quick defrosting which prevents bacteria development.
3. Electricity saving.
4. Maintaining the nutritive value of the food due to the cooking time reduction.
5. Easy cleaning.
How the microwave oven works
In the microwave oven there is a high voltage valve called "Magnetron" that converts electric
energy to microwave energy. These electromagnetic waves are conducted to the inside of the
oven cavity by means of wave-guide and spread by a mode stirrer or by a turntable.
Inside the oven the microwaves spread out in all directions and are reflected by the metallic walls,
penetrating the food evenly.
Why does the food heat up?
Most food contains water, whose molecules vibrate with microwaves.
The friction between the molecules generates heat, which causes a temperature rise in the food,
defrosting it, cooking it or keeping it warm.
As the heat is formed inside the food:
-It may be cooked with little or no liquid or fat;
-Defrosting, heating or cooking in the microwave oven is quicker than in a conventional oven;
-Vitamins, minerals and nutritive substances are preserved;
-There is no change in the natural food colour and aroma.
