Cookware test
Never switch on the microwave unless there is food
inside. The short cookware test is the only exception to
this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether
your cookware is suitable for use in the microwave.
1.
Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for ½
to 1
minute.
2.
Check the temperature of the cookware during this
time.
The cookware should remain cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks
are generated.
In this case, stop the test.
:
Warning – Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in
operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a
safe distance.
Accessories included
Only the wire rack provided is suitable when using the
microwave only. If you use the universal pan or the
baking tray, this may create sparks, which may damage
the cooking compartment.
When using the appliance in combination with the
microwave or "Dishes" mode, you can use the universal
pan, baking tray or any other accessories that have
been included with the appliance.
When using the microwave, it is best to insert
accessories at level 1, unless otherwise specified.
