To avoid the possibility of
explosion and sudden
boiling
Never use sealed containers. Remove
seals and lids before use. Sealed
containers can explode due to a build up of
pressure even after the oven has been
turned off. Take care when microwaving
liquids. Use a wide-mouthed container to
allow bubbles to escape.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling liquid
and possible scalding:
• Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
• It is advisable to insert a glass rod or
similar utensil into the liquid whilst
reheating.
• Let liquid stand for at least 20 seconds
in the oven at the end of cooking time to
prevent delayed eruptive boiling.
Pierce the skin of such foods as potatoes,
sausages and fruit before cooking, or they
may explode.
1.7
To avoid the possibility of
burns
Use pot holders or oven gloves when
removing food from the oven to prevent
burns. Always open containers, popcorn
makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away
from the face and hands to avoid steam
burns.
Temperature of the container is not a true
indication of the temperature of the food or
drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door
when opening to avoid burns from
escaping steam and heat. Slice stuffed
baked foods after heating to release steam
and avoid burns.
Do not lean or swing on the oven door.
Do not play with the oven or use it as a toy.
Children should be taught all important
safety instructions: use of pot holders,
careful removal of food coverings; paying
special attention to packaging (e.g. self-
heating materials) designed to make food
crisp, as they may be extra hot.
1.8
Other warnings
Never modify the oven in any way. This
oven is for home food preparation only and
may only be used for cooking food. It is not
suitable for commercial or laboratory use.
1.9
To promote trouble-free use
of your oven and avoid
damage
Never operate the oven when it is empty
except where recommended in the
operation manual. Doing so may damage
the oven. When using a browning dish or
self-heating material, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate
under it to prevent damage to the turntable
and turntable support due to heat stress.
The preheating time specified in the dish’s
instructions must not be exceeded. Do not
use metal utensils, which reflect
microwaves and may cause electrical
arcing. Do not put cans in the oven. Only
use the turntable and the turntable support
designed for this oven. Do not operate the
oven without the turntable.
To prevent the turntable from breaking:
• Before cleaning the turntable with
water, leave the turntable to cool.
• Do not put hot foods or hot utensils on a
cold turntable.
• Do not put cold foods or cold utensils
on a hot turntable.
Do not place anything on the outer cabinet
during operation.
IMPORTANT!
If you are unsure how to connect
your oven, please consult an
authorised, qualified electrician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer
can accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from
failure to observe the correct electrical
connection procedure. Water vapour or
drops may occasionally form on the oven
walls or around the door seals and sealing
surfaces. This is a normal occurrence and
is not an indication of microwave leakage
or a malfunction.
