]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.The only exception to this rule is when performing a short cookware test.~ "Cookware test" on page 11
■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.
■Creation of sparks: Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the door. Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.
■Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the appliance. They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
■Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave the cooking compartment to cool with the door closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door. Even if the door is only slightly ajar, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged over time.
■Condensation in the cooking compartment:
Condensation may appear on the door window, interior walls and floor. This is normal and does not adversely affect microwave operation. To prevent corrosion, wipe off the condensation every time you cook.
■Cover of the microwave feed: The microwave feed is damaged by the removal of the cover. Never remove the cover of the microwave feed in the cooking compartment.
