General operating sequence
-
Place the food to be heated in a suitable container. Place the container onto the turntable
in the oven.
- When food is placed in the microwave, it should be covered to prevent it from drying
out. Glass or plastic covers especially designed for use with microwave appliances are
available at most kitchenware dealers.
- When using the microwave/grill combination, do not cover the food to be cooked.
Place the grill rack directly on the glass turntable and place the food on the grill rack.
-
Close the door and set the desired programme.
-
As the programme is started, the turntable starts to rotate. During operation, the interior
light remains on.
-
If a programme is not started within 30 seconds, the unit will automatically go back to
Stand-by mode.
-
If, during operation, the door is opened or the key is pressed (e.g. to stir or to turn
the food in order to ensure that the temperature is evenly distributed), the timer and
programme functions are automatically suspended. The programme will automatically
resume only after the door is closed again and the key is pressed.
-
Press twice to interrupt the programme.
-
4 beeps indicate that the pre-programmed time has elapsed; at the same time, the interior
lighting switches off. The display shows END. The signals are repeated at 2-minute
intervals until the door is opened or is pressed.
-
Open the door and remove the container with the food.
-
In order to achieve an even heat distribution through the food, the container should be
set aside for several minutes.
-
The cooking times generally depend on several factors.
- The microwaves penetrate the surface of the food. For larger pieces of food, a longer
cooking time is therefore needed than for the same amount of food if cut into pieces.
The food should also be evenly distributed on the plate.
- To ensure that any germs in the food are safely destroyed, the food needs to be
exposed to high temperatures for a sufficiently long period.
- As a basic rule:
half the amount - half the time recommended (for the full amount).
double the amount - almost double the time recommended.
Setting the clock:
Once the unit has been connected to the power supply, the display shows 1:01 and an
acoustic signal is heard. The time setting process can be cancelled by pressing the key.
The clock must be set when the appliance is connected for the first time, and also if a power
failure has reset the clock.
1. Press once or twice to select the 24- or 12-hour display. The hour must be in the
range 0-23 (for 24H) or 1-12 (for 12H).
2. Turn the rotary control to set the correct hour.
3. Press .
4. Turn the rotary control to set the correct minutes. The range must be 0-59.
