Installation

Position the microwave oven at a distance from other heating sources, ensuring at least 30 cm of space above for ventilation. It should not be placed in a cabinet or on a working surface lower than 850 mm. Ensure the oven is placed against a wall on a stable surface. Check voltage, ensure no damage, and remove protective film before first use.

General Use

The oven has a Stand-by mode, ECO STANDBY for power saving, and a Child Lock function. Cooking can be paused by opening the door or pressing STOP. To continue, close the door and press Jet Start. Add/Stir/Turn Food prompts may appear during cooking. The clock can be set using the Auto Clean button and +/- buttons.

Cooking Functions

Functions include Jet Start (quick start), Microwave (various power levels), Defrost (for meat, poultry, fish, vegetables), Grill (for browning), Combi Grill (combines microwave and grill), Auto Cook (pre-set recipes), Soft/Melt, Steam, Dough Rising, Keep Warm, Auto Clean, and Yogurt.

Maintenance & Cleaning

Regular cleaning is required using a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners. The Auto Clean function is available. Ensure the grill element is clean by running it for 10 minutes monthly if not used regularly.

Troubleshooting and error codes

NOTE:
If the microwave oven does not work, do not make a service call until you have made the following checks:
  • The Plug is properly inserted in the wall socket.
  • The Door is properly closed.
  • Check your Fuses and ensure that there is power available.
  • Check that the microwave oven has ample ventilation.
  • Wait for 10 minutes, then try to operate the microwave oven once more.
  • Open and then close the door before you try again.
This is to avoid unnecessary calls for which you will be charged. When calling for Service, please give the serial number and type number of the microwa- ve oven (see Service label). Consult your warranty booklet for further advice. If the mains cord needs replacing it should be replaced by the original mains cord, which is available via our service organization. The mains cord must only be replaced by a trained service technician.

WARNING:

  • Service only to be carried out by a trained service technician.
  • Do not remove any cover.
