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.

WARNING ‒ Risk of electric shock!

The appliance uses a high voltage.

Never remove the casing.

WARNING ‒ Risk of serious harm to

health!

Inadequate cleaning may destroy the surface
of the appliance, reduce its service life, and
lead to dangerous situations, such as escap-
ing microwave energy.

Clean the appliance on a regular basis,
and remove any food residue immediately.

Always keep the cooking compartment,
door seal, door and door stop clean.

"Cleaning and servicing", Page 21

Never operate the appliance if the cooking
compartment door or the door seal is dam-
aged. Microwave energy may escape.

Never use the appliance if the cooking
compartment door, the door seal or the
plastic door frame is damaged.

Any repair work must only be carried out
by customer service.

Microwave energy will escape from appli-
ances that do not have any casing.

Never remove the casing.

Contact our after-sales service if mainten-
ance or repair work is needed.

Preventing material damage

2.1 General

ATTENTION!

Alcoholic vapours may catch fire in the hot cooking
compartment and cause permanent damage to the ap-
pliance. The appliance door may spring open due to
an explosion and it may fall off. The door panels may
shatter and fragment. Due to the resulting negative
pressure, the cooking compartment may become con-
siderably deformed inwards.

Do not heat spirits (≥ 15% vol.) when undiluted (e.g.
for marinating or pouring over food).

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.
Always allow the cooking compartment to cool
down with the door closed after cooking at high
temperatures.

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.

Take care not to trap anything in the appliance
door.

If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no
longer close properly during operation. This may dam-
age the front of adjacent kitchen units.

Keep the seal clean at all times.

Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged
or missing.

Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.

Do not place, hang or support objects on the appli-
ance door.
