IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4.  The oven door may become hot during cooking. 
Place or mount the oven so that the bottom of 
the oven is 85 cm or more above the floor. Keep 
children away from the door to prevent them 
from burning themselves.
5.  Securely connect the plug of the oven to a standard 
earthed (grounded) household electrical outlet.
WARNING: Do not place the oven where heat, moisture 
or high humidity are generated, (for example, near 
or above a conventional oven) or near combustible 
materials (for example, curtains).
Do not block or obstruct air vent openings.
Do not place objects on top of the oven. 
1.  Remove all packing materials from the inside of 
the oven cavity and remove any protective film 
found on the microwave oven cabinet surface. 
Check the oven carefully for any signs of damage.
2.  Place the oven on a secure, level surface, strong 
enough to take the oven weight, plus the heaviest 
item likely to be cooked in the oven. Do not place   
the oven in a cabinet.
3.  Select a level surface that provides enough open 
space for the intake and/or outlet vents. The rear 
surface of appliance shall be placed against a wall.

cause interference to your radio or TV reception.
To promote troublefree use of your oven and 
avoid damage.
1.
  Never operate the oven when it is empty except 
where recommended in the operation manual. 
Doing so may damage the oven.
2.  When using a browning dish or self-heating 
material, always place a heat-resistant insulator 
such as a porcelain plate under it to prevent 
damage to the turntable and turntable support 
due to heat stress. The preheating time specifi ed 
in the dish’s instructions must not be exceeded.
3.  Do not use metal utensils, which refl ect microwaves 
and may cause electrical arcing. Use only the 
turntable and the turntable support designed for this 
oven. Do not operate the oven without the turntable.

during operation.
NOTE:
If you are unsure how to connect your oven, please 
consult an authorised, qualified electrician. Neither 
the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept any 
liability for damage to the oven or personal injury 
resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical 
connection procedure. Water vapour or drops may 
occasionally form on the oven walls or around the 
door seals and sealing surfaces. This is a normal 
occurrence and is not an indication of microwave 
leakage or a malfunction.
  This symbol means that the surfaces are liable 
to get hot during use.
To avoid the possibility of burns
1.
  Use pot holders or oven gloves when removing 
food from the oven to prevent burns.

attention to the temperature of food and drink 
given to babies, children or the elderly.
 
Temperature of the container is not a true 
indication of the temperature of the food or drink; 
always check the food temperature.
4.  Always stand back from the oven door when opening 
it to avoid burns from escaping steam and heat.
5. Slice 
stuff ed baked foods after heating to release 
steam and avoid burns.

Generally the following recommendations apply:
P100 - (HIGH output = 900W) used for fast cooking or 
reheating e.g. for casseroles, hot beverages, vegetables etc.
P80 - (MEDIUM HIGH output = 720W) used for longer 
cooking of dense foods such as roast joints, meat loaf 
and plated meals, also for sensitive dishes such as 
sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the food will 
cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.
P50 - (MEDIUM output = 450W ) for dense foods 
which require a long cooking time when cooked 
conventionally, e.g. beef casserole, it is advisable to use 
this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.
P30 - (MEDIUM LOW output = 270W) Defrost setting) 
to defrost, select this power setting, to ensure that 
the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is also ideal for 
simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg 
custard.
P10 - (LOW output = 90W) For gentle defrosting, e.g. 
cream gateaux or pastry.
GB-10
Your oven can be programmed for up to 95 minutes (95.00).
The input unit of cooking (defrosting) time varies from 5 
seconds to 5 minutes. It depends on the total length of the
