[. . . ] Before operating this oven, please read these instructions and precautions carefully and keep for future reference. The appliance should be inspected for damage to the door seals and door seal areas and if these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a service technician trained by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to tamper with or make any adjustments or repairs to the door, control panel housing, safety interlock switches or any other part of the oven. Do not remove the outer panel from the oven which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy. [. . . ] The oven will automatically work on High microwave power if a cooking time is entered without the power level previously being selected. STANDING TIME can be programmed after microwave power and time setting. Always check the food during defrosting by opening the door then restarting. To ensure an even result, stir, turn or separate several times during defrosting. For large joints and poultry, turn halfway through defrosting and protect ends and tips with foil. GRILL is particularly useful for thin slices of meat, steaks chops, kebabs, sausages or pieces of chicken. When turning food, open After turning, return food to the oven and close door, and then press Start. The oven display will continue to count down the remaining grilling time. The grill elements will glow on and off during cooking - this is normal. DO NOT touch heating device on top of inside cavity while cavity is hot. After GRILL use, the product may not operate for some time to prevent The wire rack must always be used with the glass tray in position. Remove wire rack from oven by holding the rack and heatproof dish firmly. Never touch the outside window or inside metal parts of the door or oven when taking food in or out due to the high temperatures involved. When cooking by COMBINATION, the MICROWAVE power cooks food quickly whilst the GRILL gives traditional browning and crisping. Never use any other metal accessory except the one provided with the oven. DO NOT use if operating the oven with less than 200 g of food on a manual programme. For small quantities, do not cook by COMBINATION, but cook by GRILL or MICROWAVE ONLY for best results. Arcing may occur accidentally if the incorrect weight of food is used, the wire rack has been damaged , or a metal container has been used. Some foods should be cooked on COMBINATION without using the wire rack i. The food should be placed in a heatproof non-metallic dish and placed directly onto the glass tray. DO NOT use plastic MICROWAVE containers on COMBINATION programmes (unless suitable for COMBINATION cooking). Dishes must be able to withstand the heat of the top grill - heatproof glass or ceramic is ideal. [. . . ] The roller ring and oven cavity floor should be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the oven with mild detergent and hot water then dry with a clean cloth. Cooking vapours collect during repeated use but in no way affect the bottom surface or roller ring wheels. After removing the roller ring from the cavity floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it in the proper position. [. . . ]
