6 Using the Microwave Oven
1. Before switching on the appliance, you should familiarizes yourself with the following guidelines:
Never operate the oven when it is empty otherwise it could get damaged..
Within sealed dishes overpressure can quickly develop and thus cause the dish to burst. This leads to
potentially serious accidents.
Never heat liquids or food(s) in sealed dishes
The following items are also liable to burst due to developing overpressure: eggs in shells,
nuts in shells or any food(s) vacuum packed in plastic foil.
Therefore, always pierce raw eggs on two sides and remove the foil or at least cut it open on one whole
side, before you put it into the oven. Remove nutshells.
To prevent the oven from being operated inadvertently without contents, always leave a glass of
water in the cavity when the appliance is out of use.
Otherwise sparking may occur inside the oven and the appliance could consequently get damaged.
During operation your microwave oven may present scalding hazards in the following components:
Should the use of aluminium foil be recommended in a recipe, make sure that it tightly adheres to
the cookware or food and a gap of at least 2.5 cm is left between the aluminium foil and the
cooking compartment walls.
In order to ensure that the seal is constantly protected adequately against hazardous escap-
ing microwaves, always make sure that:
Do not touch - Scalding hazard
on the door - glass panel
on the lateral air vents
on the underside of the oven
2. Prevention of smoke or fire in the microwave oven
If food(s) overheats, smoke may develop or smouldering may start inside the oven.
Food(s) with a high sugar or fat content are particularly prone to this hazard.
