The result is ever greater environmental impact due to the increase in pollutants (CO2, sulphur, etc) and exploitation of non renewable natural resources (carbon, gas, oil). By reducing the waste of electricity (e. g. by reducing the consumption of the appliance in standby), energy saving is a considerable source of "virtual" renewable energy, immediate and accessible to all. To reduce consumption of the oven when not in operation. · If no button is pressed, the display will go off automatically after 10 minutes (the clock settings will be maintained). · To turn the display back on, press any button or open the door. · To deactivate energy saving, hold the POWER LEVEL button (5) down for 7-8 seconds.

You will not be able to eat the food at once as it will be too hot, but complete sterilisation will be guaranteed. · To heat precooked or frozen food, always observe the following rules: - remove the food from metal containers; - cover with clear film (for microwave use) or greaseproof paper. This will retain all the natural flavour and keep the oven clean. You can also cover with an upturned plate; - if possible, mix or turn frequently to make the heating process quicker and more even. - use extreme caution when following times indicated on packaging. Remember that in certain conditions, these times may have to be increased; · Frozen food must be defrosted before heating starts. The lower the initial temperature of the food, the longer it will take to heat.
