Should the use of
aluminium foil be recommended
in a recipe, make sure that it tightly adheres to the
cookware or food and a gap of at least
2.5 cm is left
between the aluminium foil and the cooking
compartment walls.
Otherwise sparking may occur inside the oven and the
appliance could consequently get damaged.
I
n order to ensure that the seal is constantly
protected adequately against hazardous escaping
microwaves,
always make sure that:
a) No objects
(dishcloths, parts of food
packaging etc.)
are caught between the door and
cabinet
b) Door seal or door hinges
are not
damaged or soiled (also see section on "Cleaning and
Care")
During operation your microwave oven may present
scalding
hazards in the following components:
on the
door - glass panel
on the lateral
air vents
on the
underside
of the oven
Do not touch - Scalding hazard
2. Prevention of smoke or fire in the
microwave oven
If food(s) overheats, smoke may develop or smouldering
may start inside the oven.
Food(s) with a high sugar or fat content are particularly
prone to this hazard.
The microwave oven is therefore not suitable for:
frying
making
popcorn
melting
sugar
or
fats
cooking dried beans etc.
When preparing food(s) with uncertain
compositions, you should keep an eye on the
appliance until the end of the set cooking time.
2.1 How to react when smoke develops inside the
oven
Should smoke or fire develop inadvertently inside the
oven, this problem can usually be easily overcome by
taking the following correct steps:
Whatever happens, keep the oven door closed.
First thing, switch off the appliance immediately
Then switch off the power supply by unplugging the
appliance or activating the fuse safety switch.
Open the oven to take out the burnt food only when
you can no longer detect any smoke.
CAUTION ELECTRIC SHOCK
Under no circumstances should you attempt to
extinguish smouldering or burning
food inside the
oven
with water.
In this case serious accidents may be
caused by electric shock.

Each level corresponds e.g.
to around 150 W if the appliance has a total capacity of
750 W or
to around 160 W if the appliance has a total capacity of
