Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
1. The door seals and door seal areas should be
cleaned with a damp cloth.

to the door seals and door seal areas and if
these areas are damaged the appliance should
not be operated until it has been repaired by

hazard.
6. Before use, the user should check that utensils
are suitable for use in the microwave ovens.
7. When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and
beverages in your microwave oven, overheating
the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling. This could result in a
sudden boil over the hot liquid. To prevent this
possibility the following steps should be taken:
a) Avoid using straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
b) Do not overheat.
c) Stir the liquid before placing the container in
the oven and again halfway through cooking
time.
d) After heating, allow to stand in the oven for a
short time, stirring again before carefully
removing the container.
8. When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
check the oven frequently due to the possibility of
ignition.
9. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food
jars are to be stired or shaken.
The temperature has to be checked before
consumption to avoid burns.
