HOW A MICROWAVE OVEN WORKS
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables 
food to be cooked or reheated without the foods form or colour changing.
You can use your microwave oven to:
•  Defrost (manual & auto)
•  Cook
•  Reheat
Cooking Principle.
1.  The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed 
uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is 
thus cooked evenly.
2.  The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of 
about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is 
dissipated within the food.
3.  Cooking times vary according to the recipient used and the 
properties of the food:
•  Quantity and density
•  Water content
•  Initial temperature (refrigerated or not)
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even 
when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes 
and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
•  Even cooking of the food right to the centre.
•  The same temperature throughout the food.
CHECKING THAT YOUR OVEN IS OPERATING 
CORRECTLY
The following simple procedure enables you to check that your oven is working correctly 
at all times.
Open the oven door by pulling the handle on the right side of the door. Place a glass of 
water on the turntable. Then, close the door.
1.  Press the Microwave button.
Result:  The 800 W (maximum cooking power) 
indications are displayed
2.  Press the Power Level button and set the time to 4-5 
minutes by pressing the Up/Down button to appropriate 
number of times and press the START button.
Result:  The oven light comes on and the turntable starts 
rotating.
1)  Cooking starts and when it has finished the 
oven beeps 4 times.
2)  The end reminder signal will beep 3 times 
(once every minute).
3)  The current time is displayed again.
The oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be 
in position in the oven. If a power level other than the maximum is used, the water 
takes longer to boil.
SETTING THE TIME
Your microwave oven has an inbuilt clock. When power is supplied, “:0”, “88:88” or 
“12:00” is automatically displayed on the display. 
Please set the current time. The time can be displayed in either the 24-hour or 12-hour 
notation. You must set the clock:
•  When you first install your microwave oven
•  After a power failure
Do not forget to reset the clock when you switch to and from summer and winter 
time.
1.  Press the Clock button once or twice :
To display the time in the...

2.  Press the Up/Down buttons to set the hour. 
3.  Press the Clock button.
4.  Press the Up/Down buttons to set the minute.
