Important Safety Information

WARNING:

• This appliance is intended for heating food and beverages. Drying food, clothing, or heating items like heating pads, slippers, sponges, or damp cloths can lead to injury, ignition, or fire.
• The microwave oven is not suitable for warming living animals.
• Do not operate the oven if the door or door seals are damaged. It must be repaired by a qualified specialist.
• Do not attempt to repair the device yourself. Maintenance or repair work involving the removal of covers that protect against microwave radiation should only be performed by experts.
• Faulty power cords must be replaced only by the manufacturer, customer service, or a similarly qualified person with an equivalent cable.
• Do not heat liquids in closed containers, as this can cause an explosion.
• Accessible parts of the appliance become hot during use. Avoid touching heating elements.
• Children under 8 years of age should be kept away from the appliance unless continuously supervised.
• Keep packaging materials (plastic bags, boxes, polystyrene) out of reach of children to prevent suffocation hazards.
• Do not allow small children to play with foil.

WARNING Delay in boiling:

When heating liquids, especially water, it may reach boiling point without visible bubbles. This can cause sudden, violent boiling when the vessel is disturbed, leading to burns. To ensure even boiling, place a glass rod or similar non-metallic item in the vessel.

This appliance can be used by children aged 8 and above, and persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised or instructed on safe use and understand the associated hazards. Children must not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance should not be performed by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised. Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children under 8 years.

Clean the door frame/seal and surrounding areas with a damp cloth. Clean the interior regularly and remove food residues. Failure to do so may damage the surface, affecting the appliance's lifespan and potentially creating hazardous situations. Do not use abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers on the glass door, as this can cause scratches and damage the glass. Do not use a steam cleaner. Do not operate the device with an external timer or remote control system.

Operation

Microwave Operation

The device uses microwave radiation to heat water particles in food quickly. There is no heat radiation, so browning is minimal. Only food should be heated. The device is not suitable for baking in floating fat. Heat only 1-2 portions at a time for optimal efficiency. Press STOP/CLEAR to stop cooking. Microwaves provide full energy immediately; preheating is not necessary. Never operate the microwave function when the oven is empty. The microwave oven does not replace a traditional cooker; it is primarily used for defrosting, rapid warming, and cooking meals.

To operate:

1. Place food in a suitable container.
2. Open the door and place the container in the center of the glass plate. Close the door.
3. Press the MICROWAVE button to select the desired power setting (P100, P80, P50, P30, P10).
4. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to confirm.
5. Use the turning knob to set the cooking time (5 seconds to 95 minutes).
6. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to begin.

Note: Pressing START/+30SEC./CONFIRM repeatedly adds 30 seconds to the cooking time. Microwave cooking is faster than conventional cooking; if unsure, set a shorter time and adjust as needed. The device will turn off automatically after the set time, accompanied by 5 signal tones.

Pause or Stop Cooking

• To pause, press STOP/CLEAR once and open the door. To resume, close the door and press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM.
• To completely stop, press STOP/CLEAR twice.

Warming

The microwave is excellent for warming liquids and food. Heating times in the table are approximate and depend on the food's starting temperature and composition. Check food temperature periodically.

Grilling

Use the grilling grid for grilling. Use heat-resistant tableware or place food directly on the grid. Preheating the grill is not necessary. To roast and scallop:

1. Press GRILL/COMBI. until “G-1” appears.
2. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to confirm.
3. Set the desired grilling time (5 seconds to 95 minutes).
4. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start.

Note: Signal tones will alert you to turn food over halfway through. Touch the door only by the handle. The device turns off after the set time with 5 signal tones.

Convection Mode

The convection mode cooks food like a conventional oven, without microwave activity. Preheating is recommended.

With pre-heating:

1. Press CONVECTION to select the desired temperature (130°C-220°C).
2. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to confirm.
3. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM again to start pre-heating. The display will flash during heating, and two signal tones will sound when the temperature is reached.
4. Open the door, place food inside, and set the cooking time (5 seconds to 95 minutes).
5. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start.

Without pre-heating:

1. Place food in the device.
2. Press CONVECTION to select the desired temperature (130°C-220°C).
3. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to confirm.
4. Set the desired cooking time (5 seconds to 95 minutes).
5. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start.

Note: The display indicates the temperature reached. The device turns off after the set time with 5 signal tones.

Combinations of Microwave, Grill, and Convection

These settings operate microwave, grill, and convection alternately. Select the desired combination (C-1 to C-4) by pressing GRILL/COMBI., confirm with START/+30SEC./CONFIRM, set the cooking time, and press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start.

Auto Functions

Use auto functions to cook specific food amounts automatically. Turn the knob to select the function (e.g., A1 Heating, A2 Potatoes, A3 Meat, etc.) and set the weight/time as indicated in the table. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start.

Defrosting

Choose between defrosting by weight (dEF 1) or time (dEF 2). Select the function, set the weight/time using the knob, and press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to start. For food weighing less than 200g, place it on the edge of the glass tray.

Gradual Cooking

Set up to two functions to perform sequentially. For example, heating with microwave followed by roasting. Select the first function (e.g., MICROWAVE), set power and time, confirm. Then select the second function (e.g., GRILL/COMBI.), confirm, and set time. Press START/+30SEC./CONFIRM to begin. Note: Auto functions and pre-heating convection are not available for gradual cooking.

Special Functions

Auto Start

Delay the start of cooking for up to 23 hours and 59 minutes. Ensure the clock is set correctly. Select the function (Microwave, Grill, Convection, Auto, Combi), set the cooking time, press CLOCK/PRE-SET, set the desired start hour and minutes, and confirm with START/+30SEC./CONFIRM. The device will start at the set time.

Locking (Child-proof lock)

Press and hold STOP/CLEAR for over 3 seconds to lock the controls. The display will show the locked status. Press and hold again to unlock.

Display Function

Pressing MICROWAVE, GRILL/COMBI, or CONVECTION for 2-3 seconds shows the current mode or temperature. Pressing CLOCK/PRE-SET shows the current time. During time-delay mode, pressing CLOCK/PRE-SET displays the start time.

Cleaning

Turn off the microwave and unplug it. Do not use abrasive cleaners, wire brushes, or metal scrapers. Clean the interior with a damp cloth; a mild detergent can be used for heavy soiling. Wipe the viewing window with a damp cloth. Clean external walls with a damp cloth, ensuring no water enters the housing openings. Clean switches with a damp cloth. The glass plate can be cleaned with dish soap or in the dishwasher. Clean the rotating ring regularly; it can be removed and hand-washed. To remove odors, heat a bowl of water with lemon juice for about 5 minutes, then wipe the oven with a soft cloth.
