1.5 OVENWARE TO BE USED
In the “Microwave Only” and “Microwave Combined” modes, all types of containers in glass (preferably
Pyrex), ceramics, china and clay may be used provided that they are undecorated and free of metal parts (i.e.
gilt trimmings, handles, feet etc.). Heat resistant plastic containers can also be used, but only for “Microwave
Only” cooking. If you are still doubtful about using a particular container, you can perform a simple test. Place
the empty container in the oven for 30 seconds at maximum power (“Microwave Only” function).
If the container is still cold or only slightly warm, it is suitable for microwave cooking. If it is very hot or gives
out sparks, it is not suitable. Containers in heat-resistant plastic may also be used. Paper napkins, cardboard
trays and disposable plastic plates can also be used for short cooking times. The size and shape of the con-
tainers must be such as to allow them to rotate properly inside the oven. Metal, wood, cane and crystal con-
tainers are not suitable for microwave cooking. It is worth remembering that - since microwaves heat the
food, not the dish - it is possible to cook the food directly on the plate on which it is to be served. This means
that you do not need to use, and wash up, saucepans. However, remember that heat may be transferred from
the food itself to the plate, making it necessary to use an oven glove.
If the oven has the “Fan Oven Only” or “Grill only” settings, all types of ovenware may be used.
In any case, observe the guidelines shown in the following table:

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Green and yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may
not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as
follows:
The green and yellow wire must be connected to the
terminal in the plug marked with the letter E or the
earth symbol or coloured green or green and
yellow.
The blue wire must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The brown wire must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter L or coloured red.
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will
incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your
socket, the plug should be cut off from the mains
lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off
plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a
13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this
could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse,
the circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover
must be re-fitted when changing the fuse using a
13 Amp Asta approved fuse to BS 1362. In the
event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT
be used until a replacement fuse cover can be
obtained from your nearest electrical dealer. The
colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is
that as marked on the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please
follow the instructions provided below:
