and closes properly.
4) Place the support (H) in the centre of the circular
groove and fix the turntable (G) to it. The spindle
(D) should be inserted in the corresponding groove
in the centre of the turntable.
5) After the installation has been performed, the
power supply cable and the power socket must be
easy to access.
6) Only a qualified electrician may install or relocate a
socket outlet.
7) Only connect the appliance to a power socket with
a power capacity of at least 16A. Also make sure
that the main switch installed in your home has a
minimum power capacity of 16Ain order to avoid it
suddenly tripping while the oven is on.
8) Before use, check that the power supply voltage is
the same as the one shown on the rating label and
that the power outlet is properly earthed: the
manufacturer disclaims any liability in the event of
non-compliance with this safety regulation.
9) The majority of modern electronic appliances (TV,
radio, stereo systems etc) are shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. Certain electronic
appliances may not, however, be shielded from
radio frequency signals deriving from a microwave
oven. You should therefore keep a distance of at
least 1 - 2 metres between these appliances and the
operating oven.
Ovenware to be used
You can make use of all types of containers made of
glass (preferably Pyrex), ceramics, porcelain and
glazed pottery as long as they do not have
decorations or metal parts (gilded borders, handles,
feet). Heat resistant plastic containers can also be
used, but only for “Microwave Only” cooking. If you
are still doubtful about using a particular container,
you can perform a simple test. Place the empty
container in the oven for 30 seconds at maximum
power (“Microwave Only” function).
If the container is still cold or only slightly warm, it is
suitable for microwave cooking.
If it is very hot or gives out sparks, it is not suitable.
For short heating periods, you may use paper
napkins, cardboard trays and plastic “throwaway”
plates as a base.
As far as shape and size are concerned, it is
absolutely essential that containers be such as to
allow the turntable to rotate.
In order to use large-size rectangular containers
(which may not be able to rotate inside the cooking
cavity), you can remove the spindle (D) from its
housing to prevent the turntable (G) moving. Bear in
mind that to be assured of good results when carrying
this out you must stir the food and turn the container
around several times during the cooking process.
Containers made of metal, wood, recycled kitchen
paper, cane and plate glass are not suitable for use in
microwave ovens. The metal grill rack supplied with
your microwave have been fully tested for safe use.
You should remember, too, that since microwaves
heat the food and not the glassware, earthenware or
similar containers for that food, it is possible to cook
such foods in the serving dish and thereby avoid the
problem of having to clean pans later.
If the oven is used in its grill only functions, any type
of oven container may be used (see chart).
