Safety

4

Food and its packaging and containers may
catch fire.

Never heat food in heat-retaining pack-
aging.

Do not leave food unattended while it is
heating in containers made of plastic, pa-
per or other combustible materials.

Never set the microwave power too high or
the cooking time too long. Follow the in-
structions provided in this user manual.

Never use the microwave to dry food.

Never defrost or heat food with a low water
content, such as bread, at too high a mi-
crowave power or for too long.

Cooking oil may catch fire.

Never use the microwave to heat cooking
oil on its own.

WARNING ‒ Risk of explosion!

Liquids and other food may easily explode
when in containers that have been tightly
sealed.

Never heat liquids or other food in contain-
ers that have been tightly sealed.

WARNING ‒ Risk of burns!

Foods with peel or skin may burst or explode
during heating, or even afterwards.

Never cook eggs in their shell or heat hard-
boiled eggs in their shell.

Never cook shellfish or crustaceans.

Always prick the yolk of eggs before mi-
crowaving.

The skin of foods that have a peel or skin,
such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and
sausages, may burst. Before heating, prick
the peel or skin.

Heat is not distributed evenly through baby
food.

Never heat baby food in closed containers.

Always remove the lid or teat.

Stir or shake well after heating.

Check the temperature before giving the
food or drink to a child.

Heated food gives off heat. The cookware
may become hot.

Always use oven gloves to remove cook-
ware or accessories from the cooking com-
partment.

Airtight packaging may burst when food is
heated.

Always follow the instructions on the pack-
aging.

Always use oven gloves to remove the
dishes from the cooking compartment.

The accessible parts of the appliance become
hot during operation.

Never touch these hot parts.

Keep children at a safe distance.

Using the appliance for anything other than its
intended purpose is dangerous. This is be-
cause, for instance, overheated slippers, pil-
lows filled with grain or cereal, sponges and
damp cleaning cloths, etc., may cause burns
to the skin.

Never dry food or clothing with the appli-
ance.

Never heat up slippers, pillows filled with
grain or cereal, sponges, damp cleaning
cloths or similar with the appliance.

The appliance must only be used to pre-
pare food and drink.

WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!

There is a possibility of delayed boiling when
a liquid is heated. This means that the liquid
reaches the boiling temperature without the
usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Ex-
ercise caution even when only gently shaking
the container. The hot liquid may suddenly
boil over and splatter.

Always place a spoon in the container
when heating liquids. This prevents delayed
boiling. 

WARNING ‒ Risk of injury!

Unsuitable cookware may crack. Porcelain or
ceramic cookware can have small perfora-
tions in the handles and lid. These perfora-
tions conceal a cavity below. If moisture pen-
etrates this cavity, it could cause the cook-
ware to crack.

Only use microwave-safe cookware.
