INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new microwave oven, please read through
these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. Pay particular
attention to the safety measures. We also recommend that you keep the
instructions for future reference, so that you can remind yourself of the
functions of your microwave oven.
IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES
The microwave oven may only be used for its original purpose, i.e. for
preparing food for domestic purposes.
The microwave oven is for indoor use only.
Do not use the microwave oven if the cord or plug is damaged, if it is
not functioning properly, or if it has been damaged by a heavy impact
or similar.
The cord or plug must not be submerged in water, and the microwave
oven must not be used in a wet or damp environment.
Do not place the microwave oven or the cord near hot areas, for
example, gas rings and electric hotplates.
Do not touch the microwave oven when the convection or grill
function is being used as it gets very hot.
Do not block or cover any vent holes on the microwave oven.
Position the microwave oven so that there is sufficient space on all
sides.
Do not switch the microwave oven on when it is empty. In order for
the microwave oven to be able to absorb microwaves, there must be
something in it (food), otherwise it may be damaged. If you would like
to practise using the various functions, place a cup of water inside the
microwave oven.
The door safety lock system must not be modified in any way. Do not
use the microwave oven if the safety locking system is not
functioning, which means that the microwave oven could be switched
on even if the door is not closed. If the door is open, you risk being
exposed to microwave radiation.
Make sure that dirt or cleaning agent residue does not collect on the
contact surfaces between the microwave oven’s front and oven door.
•Clean the microwave oven regularly and do not use it if there are
cleaning agent residues inside it.
Never heat oil or fat in the microwave oven.
Never store utensils or foodstuffs in the oven compartment.
Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the appliance when it is
in use.
Always follow the advice in the ‘Tips for food preparation’ section.
Never try to repair the microwave oven yourself.
If the microwave oven, cord or plug need to be repaired, it should be
taken to an authorised service centre. If the appliance is subjected to
unauthorised repairs, the guarantee will become void. Contact your
retailer if the repairs fall under the terms of the guarantee.
Fire hazard!
To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven compartment, please note
the following points:
Do not cook food for too long or at too high a temperature, and do not
leave the microwave oven unattended if paper, plastic or other
flammable materials have been used in the microwave oven with a
view to reducing cooking times.
Foods with a high fat content may ignite if the microwave power is too
high or if they are being grilled. Be careful when preparing roast pork,
for example.
Metal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can cause sparks
in the microwave oven and must therefore be removed.
If fire or smoke occurs in the oven compartment, leave the door
closed. Switch the microwave oven off immediately, and remove the
plug from the wall socket.
