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).
The prolonged presence of moisture in the cooking
compartment leads to corrosion.
▶
Always wipe away the condensation after cooking.
▶
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.
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.
2.2 Microwave
Follow these instructions when using the microwave.
ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.
▶
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.
Placing aluminium containers in the appliance may
cause sparks, which will damage the appliance.
▶
Do not use aluminium containers in the appliance.
Operating the appliance without food in the cooking
compartment may lead to overloading.
▶
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside. The only exception to this rule is when per-
forming a short cookware test.
If you prepare several bags of microwave popcorn in
immediate succession at a microwave power level that
is too high, the cooking compartment may be dam-
aged.
▶
Leave the appliance to cool down for several
minutes between each use.
▶
Never set a microwave power level that is too high.
▶
Use a maximum microwave output of 600 watts.
▶
Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate.

3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Heat two cups of liquid at the same time.
¡
Heating several dishes at the same time requires
less energy than heating dishes one after the other.
Switch off the display in the basic settings.
¡
The appliance saves energy in standby mode.
Notes
¡
In standby mode, the display automatically reduces
the brightness to setting 1.
¡
The appliance requires:
