damage the oven.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep
an eye on the oven due to the possibility of ignition;
Do not use your microwave oven to dry papers or
clothes.
Use shorter times for smaller amounts of food to prevent
overheating and burning food.
If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance
and keep the door closed in order to stifle any flames;
The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food
deposits removed;
Do not immerse the power cable or power plug in water
and keep the power cable away from heat.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should
not be heated in microwave ovens since they may
explode, even after microwave heating has ended; Also
do not heat airtight or vacuum-sealed bottles, jars,
containers, nuts inshells, tomatoes etc.
Do not cover the ventilation slots with cloth or paper.

The oven may also overheat and switch itself off
automatically, and will remain off until it cools sufficiently.
Always use oven mitts when removing a dish from the
oven to avoid unintentional burns.
Do not touch heating elements or interior oven walls until
the oven has cooled down.
Stir liquids halfway during heating or after heating ends

heating to prevent eruptive boiling.
Stand at arms length from the oven when opening the
door to avoid getting scalded by escaping hot air or
steam.

The microwave oven will automatically shut down for 30
minutes for safety purposes. We recommend placing
a glass of water inside the oven at all times to absorb
microwave energy in case the microwave oven is started
accidentally.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the
