means that the liquid reaches
boiling temperature without the
usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only
vibrates a little, the hot liquid may
suddenly boil over and spatter.
When heating, always place a
spoon in the container. This will
prevent delayed boiling.
Risk of injury!

Scratched glass in the appliance
door may develop into a crack. Do
not use a glass scraper, or sharp or
abrasive cleaning aids or
detergents.
Risk of injury!
■
Unsuitable ovenware may crack.
Porcelain or ceramic ovenware can
have small perforations in the
handles or lids. These perforations
conceal a cavity below. Any
moisture that penetrates this cavity
could cause the ovenware to crack.
Only use microwave-safe
ovenware.
Causes of damage
Caution!
■
Heavily soiled seal: If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door
will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of
adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
■
Operating the microwave without food: Operating the appliance
without food in the cooking compartment may lead to
overloading. Never switch on the appliance unless there is food
in the cooking compartment. An exception to this rule is a short
crockery test (see the section "Microwave, suitable crockery").
■
Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave power too high.
Use a power setting no higher than 600 watts. Always place the
popcorn bag on a glass plate. The disc may jump if overloaded.
■
Liquid that has boiled over must not be allowed to run through
the turntable drive into the interior of the appliance. Monitor the
cooking process. Choose a shorter cooking time initially, and
increase the cooking time as required.
■
Never use the microwave oven without the turntable.
