Safety
Safety precautions to prevent exces-
sive exposure to microwave energy
· Do not attempt to operate the oven with the
door open, since this can lead to exposure to
a harmful level of microwave energy.
It is important that the safety locks are not
broken open or tampered with in any way.
· Do not wedge anything between the front of
the oven and the door; make sure that no dirt
or cleaning agent residue are allowed to accu-
mulate on the sealing surfaces.
· Do not use the microwave if it is damaged. It
is particularly important that the door closes
properly and there is no damage to the follow-
ing:
- the door (bent),
- hinges and locks (broken or loose),
- door seals and sealing surfaces.
· The oven must only be adjusted or repaired
by the named service centre or by a properly
qualified specialist.
Important safety instructions
Certain elementary safety precautions must be
taken to ensure personal safety when using
electrical appliances. These precautions include
the following:
Danger: to reduce the risk of burns, electric
shocks, fire, injury or excessive exposure to
microwave energy:
Read all instructions before using the oven for the
first time.
· Use this appliance for the intended purpose as
described in this manual only. Do not use any
corrosive chemicals or vapours in the oven.
This microwave is specially designed for heat-
ing, cooking or drying foods.
It is not equipped for industrial or laboratory
use.
· Do not operate the microwave when it is
empty.
· Do not operate the oven if the cable or plug is
damaged, the oven is not working properly, or
if it is damaged or has been dropped.
Avoid all hazards. A faulty power cable or plug
should only be replaced by the manufacturer
or a similarly qualified specialist.
· Danger: do not allow children to use the
microwave unattended unless they have
been given appropriate instructions to enable
them to use the appliance safely and ensure
that they understand the dangers involved in
improper use.
· To minimize the risk of fire in the microwave:
if you are heating food in plastic or paper
containers, keep an eye on the microwave at
all times, as it is possible for the materials to
catch fire.
· Remove clips containing wire from paper or
plastic bags before you put the bag in the
microwave.
Introduction/Safety
KH1107_IB_GB.indd 9 08.12.2004 11:00:52 Uhr
10 GB
· If you notice any smoke, switch the oven off
or pull out the plug and keep the oven door
closed to smother any flames.
· Do not store anything inside the oven cavity.
Do not leave any paper articles, cooking
utensils or foodstuffs in the microwave when
it is not in use.
· Warning: liquids and other foodstuffs must not
be heated in sealed, airtight containers, since
they can explode and damage the appliance.
When heating drinks in the microwave, there
may be a delay before the liquid begins to
bubble when boiling. Care must therefore be
taken when handling the cup/container.
· Do not fry foods in the microwave. Hot oil can
damage parts of the appliance and utensils
and may cause burns to the skin.
· Eggs in shells and hard-boiled eggs should
not be heated in the microwave, since they
can explode even after cooking in the micro-
wave has stopped.
· Foods with a thick skin, such as potatoes,
whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must
be pierced before cooking.
· The contents of baby bottles and jars of baby
food should be stirred or shaken.
· Danger: please check the temperature of food
before giving it to a baby; this can prevent in
some cases serious burns.
· Cooking utensils can become hot as a result
of the heat emitted by the heated foods and
it may only be possible to touch them with
an oven cloth or pan holder. It is important to
check whether cooking utensils are suitable
for use in microwave ovens.
Danger: maintenance or repair work requiring
removal of any covers which protect against
exposure to microwave energy poses a dan-
ger to anyone other than a qualified specialist.
Earthing instructions /
proper installation
This appliance must be earthed. It is supplied
with a cable with an earth lead and an earthed
plug. A properly installed and earthed wall socket
is required for this plug. In the event of a short
circuit, earthing reduces the risk of an electric
shock through the discharge cable. It is recom-
mended that a separate power circuit is used to
supply the microwave on its own. High voltages
are dangerous and can cause fires or other
accidents, which may result in damage to the
microwave oven.
Risk to life: improper handling of the earth plug
poses a risk of electric shock.
Note: if you have any questions regarding earth-
ing or the electrical instructions, please consult
an electrician or service specialist.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can
assume liability for damage to the microwave or
for personal injury resulting from non-compliance
with the instructions relating to electrical connec-
tion of the appliance.
Radio interference on other appliances
Operation of the microwave can cause interfer-
ence on your radio, television or similar devices.
If such interference occurs, you can reduce or
eliminate it in the following ways:
Clean the door and sealing surfaces of the
microwave.
Adjust the receiving aerial of the radio or
television.
Install the microwave in a different place from
where the receiver is located.
Take the microwave away from the receiver.
Plug the microwave into a different socket.
The microwave and receiver should use dif-
ferent branches of the power circuit.

Before you begin
Basic principles for cooking in the
microwave oven
Organise the food well.
The thickest parts should be placed at the edge.
Take care with the cooking time. Always
select the shortest cooking time stated
and extend it if necessary. Foods which are
cooked for far too long can begin to smoke or
burst into flames.
Cover the food with a lid during cooking. The
lid prevents splattering and helps to ensure
that the foods cook evenly.
Turn the food once during preparation in the
microwave so that e.g. chicken or hamburg-
ers are cooked through more quickly.
Large pieces of food, e.g. roasts, must be
turned at least once.
Change the position of small pieces of food,
e.g. meatballs, halfway through the cooking
time. Turn the meatballs and move the ones
from the centre to the edge.
Always use suitable cookware
The ideal material for a microwave oven must
be permeable for microwaves, i.e. it allows
the energy to pass through the container to
heat the food.
Use only the kind of thermometer that is
recommended for this oven. Microwaves can-
not penetrate metal. For this reason, no metal
dishes, pots or utensils should be used in the
microwave.
Do not use any products made of recycled pa-
per in the microwave. These may contain tiny
fragments of metal, which can cause sparks
and/or fire.
Round/oval cookware is preferable to square/
oblong, since food in the corners can easily
get overcooked.
The list below is a general guideline for
choosing the right cookware.

Installing the oven
Choose an even surface with enough space to
allow air to flow to and from the oven.
Make sure that there is a minimum space of
7.5 cm (3.0 inches) between the oven and the
surrounding walls. Make sure that the door of
the microwave opens properly.
Before you begin
KH1107_IB_GB.indd 11 08.12.2004 11:00:52 Uhr
12 GB
Make sure that the mains plug is easily
accessible so that it can be reached and
removed easily in a hazardous situation.
Make sure that there is a space of at least 30
cm (12 inches) above the microwave.
Do not remove the feet from under the micro-
wave.
Do not block any of the air vents. The oven
may otherwise be damaged.
Place the oven as far away from radios and
television sets as possible.
Operation of the microwave can cause inter-
ference with radio or television reception.
Plug the appliance into a standard domes-
tic socket. Make sure that the voltage and
frequency comply with the data stated
on the power rating label on the appliance.
Warning: do not place the microwave above
a cooker or other heat-generating appliance.
Installation in such a location could damage the
microwave oven and render the warranty invalid.
Remove the packaging material and any
protective film from the surface of the oven
casing.
Note: do not remove the light brown mica cover,
which is screwed onto the inside of the oven cav-
ity to protect the magnetic tubes.

Cleaning and care
Before cleaning the microwave, switch it off and
remove the plug from the socket.
Always keep the inside of the microwave clean.
If any splashes of food or spilt liquids stick to
the walls of the microwave, wipe them away
with a damp cloth.
Use a mild washing-up liquid to clean the
microwave if it is very dirty.
Avoid using cleaning sprays and other strong
cleaning agents, since these may cause
stains, streaks or cloudiness of the door
surface.
Clean the outside walls with a damp cloth.
To prevent damage to the functional parts
inside the microwave, do not allow water to
get into the air vents.
Remove splashes or dirt regularly.
Clean the door, both sides of the window, door
seals and all adjacent parts with a damp cloth.
Do not use scouring cleaning agents.
If misting occurs on the inside or outside of
the microwave door, clean it away with a
soft cloth. This can occur if the microwave
is operated in very humid conditions. This is
completely normal.
Clean the glass plate regularly. Wash the plate
in warm soapy water or in the dishwasher.
Likewise clean the roller ring and microwave
door regularly to prevent excessive noise dur-
ing operation. Wipe the floor of the microwave
with a mild washing-up liquid.
You can also wash the roller ring in mild soapy
water or in the dishwasher. After removing the
roller ring from the base of the oven cavity
for cleaning, please ensure that it is replaced
properly.
Remove odours regularly. To do this, place a
deep microwave-safe bowl containing one
cup of water and the juice and rind of a lemon
in the microwave.
Heat for 5 minutes. Clean the microwave out
thoroughly and rub dry with a soft cloth.
If the bulb inside the microwave needs
changing, please have this done by a dealer
or contact our Service Centre (see warranty
card).

Tips
Freezing and defrosting – the easy
way …
The microwave is ideally suited to defrosting fro-
zen foods quickly and easily. The choice of power
in watts, defrosting and standing times depend
on the type and quantity of food.
Microwaves always pass from the outside to the
inside of the food. This means that it is not pos-
sible to defrost to the middle of particularly large
pieces of food, since the outer layers begin to
cook before the centre is defrosted.
Proper defrosting begins with freezing. Care
should be taken when freezing food, making por-
tions as small, flat and suitable for the needs of
your household as possible. Please also take into
account the size of the various dishes or plates
you will later put in the microwave to defrost the
frozen food.
The following defrosting table gives a summary
of defrosting times for a number of common
foodstuffs. Alongside time and quantity, you will
also find the so-called “standing time”. This is
the time in which the temperature evens out as
the heat from the defrosted layers spreads into
the centre and to the layers of food in the middle
that may still be frozen. Leave the frozen food
in the microwave (switched off) or outside the
microwave during this standing time.
The stated values may vary according to the
properties of the food in question.
Use the integrated “Defrost” function.
1. Press button
y
“Defrost”.
2. Enter the defrosting time.
3. Press button
e
“Start”.
