To avoid unnecessary mistakes and acci­dents, it is important to ensure that all
people using the appliance are thorough­ly familiar with its operation and safety
features. Save these instructions and

CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE

by persons (including children) with re­duced physical, sensory or mental ca­pabilities, or lack of experience and

use of the appliance by a person re­sponsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to en­sure that they do not play with the ap­pliance.

• If you are discarding the appliance pull
the plug out of the socket, cut the con­nection cable (as close to the appliance

• If this appliance featuring magnetic
door seals is to replace an older appli­ance having a spring lock (latch) on the
door or lid, be sure to make that spring
lock unusable before you discard the
old appliance. This will prevent it from
becoming a death trap for a child.
