INTRODUCTION
To get the best out of your new microwave oven, please read
through these instructions carefully before using it for the first
time. Pay particular attention to the safety measures. We also
recommend that you keep the instructions for future reference,
so that you can remind yourself of the functions of the
microwave oven.
IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES
•
The microwave oven may only be used for its original
purpose, i.e. for preparing food for domestic purposes.
•
The microwave oven is for indoor use only.
•
Do not use the oven if the cord or plug is damaged, if the
oven is not functioning properly, or if it has been damaged
by a heavy impact or similar.
•
Do not block or cover any vent holes or outlets on the oven.
•
Do not use the microwave oven when it is empty. In order
for the microwave oven to absorb microwaves, there must
be something in it (food), or it may be damaged. If you
would like to practice using the various functions, place a
cup of water inside the oven.
•
Do not use the microwave oven if the safety locking system
is not functioning, which means that the microwave oven
could be switched on even if the door is not closed. If the
door is open, you risk being exposed to microwave
radiation.
•
Do not use the microwave oven if there are cleaning agent
residues inside it.
•
Never heat oil or fat in the oven.
•
Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the appliance
when it is in use.
•
Never try to repair the microwave oven yourself.
•
If the microwave oven, cord or plug need to be repaired, it
should be taken to an authorised service centre. If the
appliance is subjected to unauthorised repairs, the
guarantee will become void. Contact your retailer if the
repairs fall under the terms of the warranty.
Fire hazard!
To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven space, please note
the following points:
•
Do not cook food for too long or at too high a temperature,
and do not leave the microwave oven unattended if paper,
plastic or other flammable materials have been used in the
oven with a view to reducing cooking times.
•
Metal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can
cause sparks in the oven and must therefore be removed.
•
If materials in the oven catch fire, leave the door closed.
Switch the oven off immediately, and remove the plug from
the wall socket.

PREPARING THE MICROWAVE OVEN
Each individual microwave oven is checked at the factory, but for
safety’s sake, after unpacking the oven, you should check
carefully that the microwave oven has not been damaged during
transport. Check whether there is any visible damage (e.g. in the
form of dents or similar), if the door closes properly, and if the
hinges are in order. If it appears that the microwave oven has
been damaged, you must contact the shop where you bought it,
and do not use it until it has been checked by an authorised
specialist.
You should check before installation that you have removed all
packaging has been removed from the microwave oven both
inside and outside.
Positioning the microwave
The microwave oven should be placed on a flat surface, with
clearance of at least 7-8 cm from the sides of the microwave
(including rear and top) to ensure sufficient ventilation. This
microwave oven is not suitable for fitting in, and you must check
that the vent holes on top of the cabinet are not covered. If they
are covered while the microwave oven is in use, there is a risk of
it overheating. The microwave oven cannot then be used until it
has cooled down.
