Installation and connection
This appliance is intended for domestic use only.
Place the table-top appliance on a solid, level surface
(at least 85 cm above the floor). The ventilation slots on
the rear, top and underside must not be obstructed.
There must be at least 30 cm of free space above the
top of the appliance.
The appliance is ready to be plugged in and may only
be connected to an earthed socket that has been
correctly installed. The circuit breaker must have a
rating of 12 A (L- or B-type circuit breaker). The mains
voltage must correspond to the voltage specified on the
rating plate.
Only a qualified electrician may install the socket or
replace the power cable. The appliance plug must
always be accessible.
Do not use multi-socket adaptors, power strips or
extension leads. Overloading causes a risk of fire.
Remove protective film and adhesive tape.

Causes of damage
Causes of damage
Caution!
■
Heavily soiled seal:
If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during
operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
■
Operating the microwave without food:
Operating
the appliance without food in the cooking
compartment may lead to overloading. Never switch
on the appliance unless there is food in the cooking
compartment.The only exception to this rule is when
performing a short cookware test.

■
Microwave popcorn:
Never set the microwave
power too high. Use a power setting no higher than
600 watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The disc may jump if overloaded.
■
Liquid that has boiled over must not be allowed to
run through the turntable drive into the interior of the
appliance. Monitor the cooking process. Choose a
shorter cooking time initially, and increase the
cooking time as required.
■
Never use the microwave oven without the turntable.
■
Creation of sparks:
Metal
e.g. a spoon in a glass
must be kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and
the inside of the door. Sparks could irreparably
damage the glass on the inside of the door.
■
Foil containers:
Do not use foil containers in the
appliance. They damage the appliance by producing
sparks.
■
Cooling with the appliance door open:
Only leave
the cooking compartment to cool with the door
closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door.
Even if the door is only slightly ajar, the fronts of
adjacent units may be damaged over time.
■
Condensation in the cooking compartment:
Condensation may appear on the door window,
interior walls and floor. This is normal and does not
adversely affect microwave operation. To prevent
corrosion, wipe off the condensation every time you
cook.
