:Important safety information
This appliance may be used by children over the age of 8 years old and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacity or by persons with a lack of experience or knowledge if they are supervised or are instructed by a person responsible for their safety how to use the appliance safely and have understood the associated hazards.
■Combustible items stored in the cooking compartment may catch fire. Never store combustible items in the cooking compartment. Never open the appliance door if there is smoke inside. Switch off the appliance and unplug it from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in
the fuse box.
■ A draught is created when the appliance door is opened. Greaseproof paper may come into contact with the heating
element and catch fire. Do not place greaseproof paper loosely over accessories during preheating. Always weight down the greaseproof paper with a dish or a baking tin. Only cover the surface required with greaseproof paper. Greaseproof paper must not protrude over the accessories.
■ Using the appliance for anything other than its intended purpose is dangerous and may cause damage, e.g. heated slippers and grain or cereal pillows may catch fire, even several hours later. The appliance must only be used for the preparation of food and drink.
■ Food may catch fire. Never heat food in heat-retaining packages.
Do not leave food heating unattended in containers made of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.
Do not select a microwave power or time setting that is higher than necessary. Follow the information provided in this instruction manual.
Never use the microwave to dry food. Never defrost or heat food with a low water content, e.g. bread, at too high a microwave power or for too long.
■The surface of the appliance may become damaged if it is not cleaned properly. Microwave energy may escape. Clean the appliance on a regular basis, and remove any food residue immediately. Always keep the cooking compartment, door seal, door and door stop clean; see also
section Care and cleaning.
■ Microwave energy may escape if the cooking compartment door or the door

■
appliances that do not have any casing. Never remove the casing. For any maintenance or repair work, contact the after-sales service.
■Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out and damaged power cables replaced by one of our trained after-sales technicians. If the appliance is defective, unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the
after-sales service.
■ Penetrating moisture may cause an electric shock. Do not use any highpressure cleaners or steam cleaners.

■
bulb, the bulb socket contacts are live. Before replacing the bulb, unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
■The appliance becomes very hot. Never touch the interior surfaces of the cooking compartment or the heating elements. Always allow the appliance to cool down.
Keep children at a safe distance.
■ Accessories and ovenware become very hot. Always use oven gloves to remove
accessories or ovenware from the cooking compartment.
■ Alcoholic vapours may catch fire in the hot cooking compartment. Never prepare food containing large quantities of drinks with a high alcohol content. Only use small quantities of drinks with a high alcohol content. Open the appliance door with care.
■ Foods with peel or skin may burst or explode during, or even after, heating. Never cook eggs in their shells or reheat hard-boiled eggs. Never cook shellfish or crustaceans. Always prick the yoke when baking or poaching eggs. The skin of foods that have a peel or skin, such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and sausages, may burst. Before heating, prick the peel or skin.
■
may become hot. Always use oven gloves to remove ovenware or accessories from the cooking compartment.
■When you open the appliance door, hot steam may escape. Open the appliance door with care. Keep children at a safe
distance.
■
when a liquid is heated. This 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.
■Scratched glass in the appliance door may develop into a crack. Do not use a
4
glass scraper, or sharp or abrasive cleaning aids or detergents.
■ 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.
■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.
■Baking tray, greaseproof paper, aluminium foil or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor: Do not place baking trays or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor. Do not line the cooking compartment floor with aluminium foil. This will cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the appliance. They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
■Water in the hot cooking compartment: Never pour water into the hot cooking compartment. This will cause steam. The temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
■Moist food: Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance to store food. This can lead to corrosion.
■Fruit juice: When cooking very moist fruit flans, do not fill the universal pan too generously. Fruit juice which runs out of the universal pan leaves behind stains which cannot be removed.
■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.
■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.
■Using the appliance door for standing on or placing objects on: Do not stand or place anything on the open appliance door. Do not place ovenware or accessories on the appliance door.
■Transporting the appliance: Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance and could break.
■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.

Microwaves are converted to heat in foodstuffs. The microwave can be used solo, i.e. on its own, or in combination with a different type of heating. You will find information about ovenware and how to set the microwave.
Note:
In the Tested for you in our cooking studio section, you will find examples for defrosting, heating and cooking with the microwave oven.
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave:
Suitable dishes are heat-resistant ovenware made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic. These materials allow microwaves to pass through.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having to transfer food from one dish to another. You should only use ovenware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees that they are suitable for use in microwaves.
Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
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 destroy the glass on the inside of the door.
The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are generated.
Use the button to set the desired microwave power.
