Causes of damage
Caution!
■
Transporting the appliance: Do not carry or hold the
appliance by the door handle. The door handle
cannot support the weight of the appliance and
could break.
■
Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
■
Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the
appliance. They damage the appliance by producing
sparks.
■
Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
appliance without food in the cooking compartment
may lead to overloading. Never switch on the
microwave unless there is food inside. The short
crockery test is the exception to this rule.
■
Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an
extended period of time, moisture in the cooking
compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the
cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep
moist food in the closed cooking compartment for
extended periods of time. Do not store food in the
cooking compartment.
■
Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the
appliance door will no longer close properly during
operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
■
Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave the
cooking compartment to cool with the door closed.
Do not trap anything in the appliance door. Even if
the door is only left open a crack, the front of nearby
furniture may become damaged over time.
■
Do not place or hang anything on the appliance door
– it is not a supporting surface. Do not place any
cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
■
Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave output
too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600
watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The plate may jump if overloaded.
