The water that melts during defrosting
can contain harmful bacteria, especial-
ly with meat and poultry.

Avoid any physical contact.
■
Pour away the defrost water and do
not use it for anything else.
■
Please ensure to thoroughly clean the
crockery you have used.
Risks in microwave and
microwave-combi mode
WARNING
Microwave hazard!
The cover in the cooking chamber
serves to protect the magnetron, which
emits the microwaves.
■
Never remove the cover inside the
cooking chamber!
A door that fails to close adequately
can cause microwave radiation to es-
cape. Under such circumstances, the
appliance may not be used.
■
If the door or door seals are dam-
aged, the oven must not be operated
until it has been repaired by a compe-
tent person.
■
It is hazardous for anyone other than
a competent person to carry out any
service or repair operation that in-
volves the removal of a cover which
gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy.
■
Pay particular attention to the clean-
liness of the door seals and door seal
faces along with all adjacent parts.
Risk of explosion!
Improper handling of the appliance
may result in damage or explosions.
■
Only use utensils that are suitable for
use in microwave ovens. Containers
that become hotter than the food in-
side them are not suitable for micro-
wave cooking. Do not use such con-
tainers.
■
Metallic containers for food and bev-
erages are not allowed during micro-
wave cooking. Metal in the cooking
chamber may cause sparks during
operation! This can damage the view-
ing window or the entire appliance!
Do not use metal pots, metal pans
and metal lids or dishware with met-
al parts such as gold edges under any
circumstances.
■
Do not use any aluminium foil, due
to the fact that this can also cause
sparks when coming into contact
with the cooking chamber walls.
■
Never place a mixture of water and
oil or fat into the appliance. This can
explode.
■
Liquids and other foods must not
be heated in sealed containers since
they are liable to explode.
■
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-
boiled eggs should not be heated in
microwave ovens since they may ex-
plode, even after microwave heating
has ended. Prick holes in tomatoes,
sausages, aubergines or similar food
with a closed skin before cooking to
prevent bursting.
