IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read these instructions carefully and keep for future reference. NB:
This oven has been designed to defrost, heat and cook food in the home.
It must never be used for other purposes, modified or tampered with in any way.
1) WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, do not use the appliance until it has been
repaired by a qualified service engineer (trained by the manufacturer or by the dealer's Customer
Service).
2) WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a qualified ser-
vice engineer to carry out any service or repair operation involving
the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy.
3) WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed
containers since they are liable to explode.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.
4) WARNING: The appliance is not intended for use by young children or
infirm persons. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate
instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in
a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.
5) WARNING: when operating in combi mode, the oven becomes extremely hot. Do not
allow children to use it without adult supervision.
6) Do not tamper with the safety devices in an attempt to operate the oven with the door
open.
7) Do not operate the oven if objects of any kind become lodged between the front
panel of the oven and the door.
Always keep the inside of the door (E) clean, using a damp cloth and non-abra-
sive detergents.
Do not allow dirt or remains of food to accumulate between the front panel of
the oven and the door.
8) Do not operate the oven if the power cable or plug are damaged, as this may
be the cause of electric shock.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorised technical
service centre or a qualified electrician in order to avoid all risk.
9)
If smoke comes out of the oven, switch off and unplug immediately. Keep the door closed to
stifle any flames.
10) Use utensils suitable for use in microwave ovens only.
To avoid overheating and the consequent risk of fire, you should check the oven when cooking
food in disposable containers made of plastic, cardboard or other inflammable materials and
when heating small quantities of food.
11) Never place the turntable in water after it has been heated for a long time.
The resulting thermal shock would break the turntable.
12) When cooking in "MICROWAVE ONLY" and "COMBI MICROWAVE" functions, you must NEVER
preheat the oven (without containing food). NEVER operate it when empty as sparks could be pro-
duced.
13) Before using the oven, make sure the utensils and containers chosen are suitable for microwave
oven use (see the section "Ovenware") .
