[. . . ] · Be careful about following the timings printed on frozen products, because they are guideline and may not always be correct. It is best to use defrosting times slightly less than those indicated. The time needed for defrosting will vary in terms of the degree to which the food has been frozen. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (U. K. ONLY) 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. 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 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: 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. 29 Defrosting times Type Quantity Function knob Cooking time Notes Standing time (minutes) 20 5 10 15 10 10 10 MEAT · Roasts (pork, beef, veal, etc. ) · Steaks, cutlets, meat slices · Stew, goulash · Ground meat " · Hamburger · Sausages POULTRY · Duck, turkey · Whole chickens · Cut-up chicken · Chicken breasts VEGETABLES FISH · Filleted fish · Cut-up fish · Whole fish · Prawn, shrimps DAIRY PRODUCTS · Butter · Cheese · Cream 1 kg 200 500 500 250 200 300 gr gr gr gr gr gr " " " " " " 35 - 40 8 - 10 16 - 18 15 - 18 12 - 14 9 - 11 11 - 13 (*) 1, 5 kg 1, 5 kg 500 gr 300 gr " " " " 45 45 15 13 - 50 50 18 15 At the end of the rest period, wash under hot water to remove possible ice 20 20 10 10 Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted before cooking. 300 400 500 400 gr gr gr gr " " " " 12 13 16 13 - 14 15 18 15 7 7 7 7 250 gr 250 gr 200 ml " " " 8 - 10 9 - 11 11 - 13 Remove the aluminium paper and metal pieces.

() * These indications are suitable for performing the minced meat defrosting test according to Regulation 60705, Par. Further information, including on other performance tests according to Regulation 60705, is given in the table on page 2. 30 USING THE MICROWAVE-ONLY FUNCTION FOR RE-HEATING Heating food in a microwave oven is much quicker and energy efficient than traditional methods. · We recommend that you heat foodstuffs (especially if they are frozen) to a temperature of at least 70° C. Leave to stand for a few minutes as you will not be able to eat that food immediately because it will be too hot. · This will ensure that any possible bacteria present in food will have been killed. · To heat pre-cooked or frozen foods, follow these rules: - remove the food from its metal containers; - cover it with plastic wrap (the clear-film type suitable for microwave ovens) or wax paper; in this way, all the food's natural flavour will be preserved and the oven will stay cleaner; you may also cover the food with an upside-down plate; - if possible, stir or turn the food over frequently so as to speed up the heating process and keep the heat uniform at the same time; - follow the cooking times listed with great caution; remember that under certain conditions the timings given must be lengthened · Frozen foods must be defrosted before the heating process begins. The lower the food's initial temperature, the longer the time needed for heating.
