clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the warranty.
~
This appliance must not be installed
and operated in mobile installations
(e.g. on a ship).
Correct use
~
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated.
Many factors will affect the overall
cooking time, including the size and
amount of food, its initial temperature,
changes to recipe and the shape and
size of cooking container.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking,
therefore when cooking or re-heating
foods, e.g. poultry, it is particularly
important that food is fully cooked
through (at temperatures of over 70°C
for more than 10 minutes). If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
~
It is important that the heat is
allowed to spread evenly throughout
the food being cooked. This can be
achieved by stirring and/or turning the
food, and by observing a sufficiently
long standing time, which should be
added to the time needed for cooking,
reheating or defrosting.
~
Always remember that times for
cooking, reheating and defrosting in a
microwave oven are usually
considerably shorter than with
traditional methods of food preparation.
Excessively long cooking times can
lead to food drying out and burning, or
could even cause it to catch fire.
There is also a danger of fire if
breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, etc., are
dried in the microwave oven.
Always ensure that this type of
procedure is supervised.
~
Do not use the microwave function
to heat up cushions or pads filled with
cherry kernels, wheat grains, lavender
or gel, such as those used in
aromatherapy. These pads can ignite
when heated, even after they have
been removed from the microwave.
~
The microwave is not suitable for
cleaning or disinfecting items.
Items can get extremely hot, and there
is a danger of burning when the item is
removed from the microwave. Fire
hazard.
~
Do not use full power to warm empty
dishes or to dry out herbs. Do not use
the appliance without food, or if it is
incorrectly loaded.
