heat up not only during use of the grill or combination functions, but also during
microwave operation.
∙ Special food thermometers (as used in conventional baking ovens) are not suitable
for use with microwave ovens.
Before using for the fi rst time
∙ After unpacking and every time before connecting the unit to the power supply,
check the unit and its power cord carefully for any signs of damage.
∙ Caution: Ensure that the door, including the viewing window and door locks, are
not damaged or bent and that it closes fi rmly against the support. This is important
to ensure that no microwave energy is allowed to escape during operation. For the
same reason, the entire casing as well as the inside of the oven must be carefully
checked.
Should the unit show any signs of damage, it must not be used under any
circumstances until it has been repaired by a qualifi ed technician.
∙ Remove any exterior and interior packaging materials. All these materials are suitable for recycling.
∙ Do not remove the protective fi lm covering the inside of the door, nor the turntable/ drive unit or the grey-brown protective
cover next to the light on the right of the interior.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials well away from children – such materials are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Before the appliance is used for the fi rst time, or after extended periods of non-use, it should be thoroughly cleaned as
described in the section Cleaning.
∙ Insert the roller ring/drive unit and the glass turntable into the unit.
∙ Before the microwave appliance is used for the fi rst time, let it heat up on the grill setting (without the microwave function
activated) for approximately 10 minutes. This will remove the smell typically encountered when fi rst switching on a grill. A
little smoke may be emitted; this is quite normal, but ensure there is suffi cient ventilation.
∙ This appliance is a group 2 class B ISM device. Group 2 contains all ISM devices (industrial, scientifi c, medical) generating
radio frequency energy and/or using radio frequency energy in the form of electro-magnetic radiation to process materials;
it also comprises spark erosion devices. Class B specifi es devices designed for domestic use, or any similar devices
integrated in the general power grid supplying domestic units.
Note: Do not switch the unit on unless the food to be heated or cooked has been placed inside the oven. Operating the
appliance empty could result in damage to the unit.
The microwave function (Group II in compliance with EN 55011)
Electromagnetic energy is generated inside the unit, causing the molecules in the food (mainly water molecules) to oscillate
and subsequently causing the food to become hot. Food with high water content will therefore heat up faster than relatively dry
food. The heat is generated gradually inside the food. Any utensils, container or plates used are heated up only indirectly as a
result of the food temperature.
Always choose suitable kitchen utensils
∙ Do not place the food directly onto the glass turntable; always use a suitable plate or cooking container. Make sure that the
container does not protrude over the rim of the glass turntable.
∙ Metal objects are to be avoided since microwaves are refl ected from metal surfaces and might not reach the food to be
cooked. Any metal in the oven might also cause sparks, resulting in possible damage to the unit.
∙ As a general rule, cutlery or metal containers must not be used in the microwave oven. Some food wrappings contain
aluminium foil or wires underneath a layer of paper and are therefore also unsuitable for use with microwave appliances.
Should the use of aluminium foil be recommended in a recipe, ensure that the food is tightly wrapped in the aluminium foil
(avoiding any air blisters). Ensure a minimum distance of 2.5 cm between the aluminium foil and the interior walls of the
