Initial Operation; Using The Device - Clatronic mw 749 Bedienungsanleitung

Initial Operation

• If you would like to use your microwave in a cupboard,
on a shelf or similar item, please ensure that you
maintain a space of at least 10 cm to cupboards,
walls etc for ventilation purposes on all sides of the
machine.
• Take the accessories out of the oven and unpack
them. First place the rotating base in position and
then put the glass plate on top in such a way that it
grips into the indentations and is lying fl at.
• In order to ensure your children's safety, please keep
all packaging (plastic bags, boxes, polystyrene etc.)
out of their reach.
• Check the device for any visible damage, particularly
in the area of the door. If any damage is found, the
machine must not be used.
• In order to avoid interference to other machines when
the microwave oven is operated, do not place it in the
direct vicinity of other electronic devices.
• Remove any protective foils that may be adhered to
the housing.
• The foils on the inside of the door must not be
removed!
• Insert the mains plug into a properly installed 230 V,
50 Hz power socket.

Using the Device

What you should know about microwave operation:
• Your device works with microwave radiation, which
heats up water particles in food in a very short time.
There is no heat radiation and therefore hardly any
browning.
• Only food should be heated up with this device.
• The device is not suitable for baking in fl oating fat.
• Only 1-2 portions should be heated up at the same
time. Otherwise the microwave will become less
effi cient.
• In order to interrupt the cooking process, turned the
timer to „0".
• Do not heat up any food with a shell or skin, such as
eggs, sausages or closed glass jars etc as there is a
danger of explosion!
• Microwaves provide their full energy levels immediate-
ly. Pre-heating is therefore not necessary.
• Never operate the microwave function when the oven
is empty.
• The microwave oven does not replace your traditional
cooker. It is used mainly for:
- defrosting deep-frozen food
- rapid warming/heating of food or drinks
- cooking meals
• Only suitable tableware should be used such as:
- glass, porcelain, ceramics, heat-resistant plastic or
special microwave tableware.
• Please do not use any plastic or paper tableware.

Operation
1. Place the food to be heated in a suitable piece of
tableware.
2. Open the door and place the vessel in the middle of
the glass plate. Then close the door. (For safety re-
asons the oven only operates when the door is tightly
closed.)
3. Adjust the microwave power as required:

* 100% corresponds to 800 W
4. Set the required cooking time with the timer.
The cooking time depends on the quantity and
constituency of the contents of the oven. With a little
practice you will soon learn to estimate the cooking
time.
Please note: preparation of food in a microwave oven
is very much faster than in a conventional cooker. Set
the cooking time to a low level if you are not sure and
continue cooking again if necessary.
Once the cooking time is set the oven switches itself
on. The light inside the oven goes on. If you would like
to set times shorter than 3 minutes, turn the button
past the 10 minute mark and then back. The timer will
then run more accurately.
5. When the time has fi nished the oven switches off
automatically. A sound is heard. The food should then
be removed.
Please note: A cover should be placed over the food
when operating the microwave.
You will fi nd recipe books at specialist bookshops.
