Safety
Page EN-9
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.
■
Never attempt to change the oven
light.
Danger 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.
CAUTION
Risk of scalding!
Microwave heating of beverages can
result in delayed and eruptive boiling,
therefore care must be taken when
handling the container. The liquid then
reaches boiling temperature without
any outward visible sign of boiling. Even
a small vibration can cause the liquid
to squirt out suddenly, e.g. when being
taken out of the appliance.
■
To avoid a boiling delay, place a plas-
tic or glass spoon in the container.
The spoon must always maintain a
minimum distance of 2 cm from the
inner walls.
■
Do not use tall, thin containers with a
narrow top section.
■
Please ensure you stir the food be-
fore eating and after half the cook-
ing time has elapsed.
■
Please wait a short moment after
heating up; carefully tip the dish and
