1.4 FOR YOUR SAFETY
Read these instructions carefully and keep for future reference.
N.B. This oven has been designed to defrost, heat and cook food in the home. It must never be used for other
purposes, modified or tampered with in any way.
1) WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been
repaired by a competent person (trained by the manufacturer or by its Customer Service).
2) WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair
operation which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave
energy.
3) WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to
explode. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.
4) WARNING: Children should not be allowed to play with the appliance or tamper with its controls. Do not
allow children near the oven when it is in operation, as this may result in severe burns.
5) Do not attempt to operate the oven with the door open by tampering with the safety
devices.
6) Do not operate the oven if objects for any kind get stuck between the front panel of the
oven and the door. Always keep the inside of the door (E) clean, using a damp cloth
and non-abrasive detergents. Do not allow dirt or remains of food to accumulate
between the front panel of the oven on the door.
7) The following warnings must be observed when the door is open: Do not place heavy
objects on the door or pull the handle downwards any further. Never place hot con-
tainers or pans (e.g. just taken off the stove) on the door.
8) If the power cable becomes damaged, this must be substituted only by specialised per-
sonnel authorised or by the manufacturer.
9) If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and KEEP THE DOOR
CLOSED in order to stifle any flames.
10) Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. In order to avoid over-
heating and the consequent risk of fire, it is advisable to supervise the oven when
cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, cardboard or other inflam-
mable materials, and when heating small quantities of food.
11) Never place the turntable in water after it has ben heated for a long time. The high
thermal shock resulting would break the turntable.
12) You must not either preheat or operate the microwave oven in any way without food
in the oven. Sparking can occur if you were to ignore this warning.
13) Before using this oven, make sure that the utensil and containers chosen are suitable
for microwave oven use (see the section on "Glassware and Similar Items").
14) When heating liquids (water, coffee, milk, etc.) it is possible that the contents may sud-
denly start to boil and spill violently as a result of delayed boiling, causing scalding.
To avoid this happening, you should place a heat-resistant plastic spoon or a glass rod
in the container before starting to heat liquids. Anyway, care should be taken when
handling the container.
15) Do not heat spirit with a high alcohol content, nor large quantities of oil, as these could
catch fire !
16) The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars should be stirred or shaken and the
temperature should be checked before consumption in order to avoid burns. It is also
advisable to stir or shake the food in order to ensure that it has an even temperature.
When using commercially available bottle sterilisers, before turning the oven on,
ALWAYS make sure the container is filled with the quantity of water indicated by the
manufacturer.
When the oven is used for the first time it is possible that, for a period of approx.
10 minutes, it may produce a “new” smell and a small amount of smoke. This is
only a result of protective substances applied to the heating element.
