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.
Cookware and containers made from metal or
cookware with metal edging may lead to
sparks being formed during simple mi-
crowave operation. The appliance is dam-
aged.
▶
Never use metal containers during mi-
crowave-only operation.
▶
Only use microwave-safe cookware or use
the microwave in combination with a type
of heating.

2 Preventing material damage
2.1 General
ATTENTION!
When the cooking compartment is hot, any water in-
side it will create steam. The change in temperature
may cause damage.
▶
Never pour water into the cooking compartment
when it is still hot.
The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion.
▶
Always wipe away the condensation after cooking.
▶
Do not keep moist food in the cooking compartment
for a long time with the door closed.
▶
Do not store food in the cooking compartment.
Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open
will damage the front of neighbouring kitchen units over
time.
▶
Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high
temperatures.
▶
Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
door.
▶
Only leave the cooking compartment to dry with the
door open if a lot of moisture was produced during
operation.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.
▶
Do not place, hang or support objects on the appli-
ance door.
