Warning and Safety instructions
16
Do not use the oven to heat up cushions or pads filled with cherry
kernels, wheat grains, lavender or gel, such as those used in
aromatherapy.
These pads can ignite when heated even after they have been
removed from the oven.
To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the oven door if smoke
occurs inside the appliance. Interrupt the process by switching the
appliance off and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Do
not open the door until the smoke has dispersed.
Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with
microwave power. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow
recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode. If
the hollow recess is sufficiently ventilated, the item could be used.
However, we recommend that you do not use such dishes in the oven.
Fire hazard! Using Microwave Solo
or Microwave combination
programmes with plastic dishes which are not microwave safe can
cause them to melt and damage the appliance.
Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal,
aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics,
wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips or plastic or paper covered wire
ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims, or plastic pots with the foil lid
only partially removed (see “Suitable containers for microwave use”).
For functions without microwave power: plastic containers which
are not suitable for use in an oven can melt at high temperatures and
can even damage the oven or catch fire. Only use containers which
are declared by the manufacturer as being suitable for use in an
oven. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on use.
Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when reheating or
cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or
other inflammable materials.
Before using single-use containers, make sure they are suitable for
use in microwave ovens (See “Containers suitable for microwave use
- Plastics”).
