RECAUTIONS

7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

◆  

Do not store flammable materials in the oven

◆  

Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags

◆  

Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers

◆  

If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and

switch off or disconnect the oven from the  power 

supply

8. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.

ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds

after the oven has been switched off so that the tem-

perature can equalize.

Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir 

after heating.

Take care when handling the container after heating. 

You may burn yourself, if the container is too hot.

A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.

To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you 

should put a plastic spoon or glass stick into the bev-

erages and stir before, during and after heating.

Reason : During the heating of liquids the boiling point 

can be delayed; this means that eruptive 

boiling can start after the container is 

removed from the oven. You may scald 

yourself.

In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID 

instructions:

Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at 
least 10 minutes.

Cover with a clean, dry dressing.

Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.

NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a con-

tainer that is wider at the top than at the bottom to pre-

vent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with narrow 

necks may also explode if overheated.

◆  

ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk

before giving it to the baby.

◆  

NEVER heat a baby’s bottle with the teat on, as the 

bottle may explode if overheated.

9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.

Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and 

keep the power cable away  from heated surfaces.

Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged 

power cable or plug.

10. Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the 

door.

Reason : The hot air or steam released may cause

scalding.

11. Keep the inside of the oven clean.

Reason : Food particles or spattered oils stuck to

oven walls or floor can cause paint damage 

and reduce the efficiency of the oven.

12. “Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating, 

especially at defrosting mode.

Reason : When the electrical power output is chang-

ing, you may hear that sound. 

This is normal.

13. When the microwave oven is operating without any 

load, the power will be cut off automatically for safety.

You can operate normally after letting it stand for over 

30 minutes.

14. Before use, the user should check that utensils are

suitable for use in microwave ovens. 

If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

During cooking, you should look into  the oven from time to

time when food is being heated or cooked in disposable

containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.

IMPORTANT

Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play

with the microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattend-

ed near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of

interest to children should not be stored or hidden just

above the oven.

CAUTION MICROWAVE RADIATION DO NOT BECOME

EXPOSED TO RADIATION FROM THE MICROWAVE.
