HOW TO OPERATE THE OVEN
MICROWAVING
Introduction: 
Water, sugar and fat in food are
absorbed by the microwaves and causes them to
vibrate. This creates heat by friction, in the same way
your hands get warm when you rub them together.  
Outer areas of  food are heated by microwave
energy, and remaining portions by conduction.  It is,
therefore, important to turnrearrange or stir food
to ensure even heating.  Where recommended, allow
food to stand, this is not optional but necessary to
ensure thorough cooking and is particularly important
for dense food, such as joints of meat.
Microwaves pass through non-metallic dishes and
utensils and heat the food inside the dishes.
Microwaves are reflected by metal. The oven is lined
with metal and has a fine metallic mesh in the door to
prevent microwave leakage. Metallic dishes are not
suitable for microwaving.  (Refer to suitable cookware
page 21-22)
Prepare and place food in a suitable container onto
the turntable or directly onto the turntable. Close the
door.
Opening and closing the door: To open the
oven door, press the door opening button. The oven
lamp will come on while the door is open. Close the
door firmly and the oven lamp will go out.
Stopping the oven: If you wish to stop the oven
during cooking press STOP/CLEAR or open the
oven door. To start the oven, close the door and
press START/AUTO MINUTE. If you wish to
cancel the cooking programme, press
STOP/CLEAR twice.

WARNING
Always operate the oven with the turntable and
support fitted correctly, see page 2. This promotes
thorough even cooking.
A badly fitted turntable may rattle, may not rotate
properly and damage the oven.
The turntable rotates clockwise or counter
clockwise. The rotary direction may change each
time you start the oven. This does not affect
cooking performance.

key and the power level will be displayed
as long as the key is pressed. This does not affect
the programme or cooking time.
Important: The microwave power level will default

POWER LEVEL 
to the desired setting. To help you
decide which power level is suitable, for Defrosting
advice see below, also charts, Page 28, and for
cooking, see charts, Page 29-31. For advice on
Reheating, see Page 32.
Power level: The microwave power level is
varied by the microwave energy switching on and
off. When using power levels other than 100P
(HIGH) you will be able to hear the microwave
energy pulsing on and off as the food cooks or
defrosts.

GRILL
The grill at the top of the oven cavity has one 
power setting.  Assisted by the turntable which 
rotates to ensure even browning, the grill is both 
economical and ideal for cooking bacon, gammon 
steaks, fish fingers and tea cakes or for making 
cheese on toast.  It is also ideal for browning and 
crisping food which has been microwaved.
It is not necessary to preheat the grill. Follow 
recommended grilling times and procedures in the 
cookbook section of this manual.
NOTE:
When first using the grill heater, smoke and odour
will be given off.  To avoid this happening when
food is being cooked, heat the grill heating element
without food for approximately 20 minutes.
The high rack is recommended for grilling small items such as toast, bacon or steak, turn over halfway
through grilling. Place food directly on the rack, in a flan dish or on a heat-resistant plate.
When browning or crisping foods in a casserole dish, use the high rack if the container is shallow enough.
However, it is advisable to place such containers directly onto the turntable or low rack - allow a little extra
time to brown and crisp.
Example: 
To grill 6 rashers of bacon for 8 minutes. Place the bacon
in a flan dish on the high rack. Close the oven door.
1. Enter the grilling time, press the 1 MINUTE key
eight times.
2. Press GRILL once.
3. Press START/AUTO MINUTE once to start
grilling.
The display will count down through grilling time.
4. Halfway through cooking, open the door (or press

bacon over.
5. Press START/AUTO MINUTE once to continue
grilling.

DUAL GRILL
DUAL GRILL combines the power of the microwave with the grill. The DUAL GRILL default setting combines
the GRILL with 30P ( MEDIUM LOW) microwave power. Please note that microwave level 100P (HIGH) cannot
be set for DUAL GRILL.
The combination of microwaves with the grill reduces cooking time and provides a crisp, brown finish giving you
the convenience of fast cooking with a traditional appetising appearance.
Use the high rack for dual grilling small items such as toast, bacon or steak, turn over halfway through cooking.
Food can be placed directly on the rack, on a heat-resistant plate or in a flan dish.
When browning or crisping foods in a casserole dish, use the high rack if the container is shallow enough.
However, it is advisable to place such containers directly onto the turntable or low rack - allow a little extra time
to brown and crisp.

Example:
To cook 450g (1lb) boneless pork chops using dual grill, 70P (MEDIUM HIGH) microwave power for 11
minutes.
