WARNING
When heating liquids, e.g.
soups, sauces and beverages in
your microwave oven,
overheating the liquid beyond
boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling.
This could result in a sudden
boil over of the hot liquid.
To prevent this possibility the
following steps should be
taken:
◆ Avoid using straight sided
containers with narrow
necks.
◆ Do not overheat.
◆ Stir the liquid before placing
the container in the oven
and again halfway through
the heating time.
◆ After heating, allow to stand
in the oven for a short time,
stir or shake them again
carefully and check the
temperature of them before
consumption to avoid burns
(especially, contents of
feeding bottles and baby
food jars).
When you unpack your microwave oven from its box, please check it immediately for
damage. If the door is damaged or bent, if there are dents inside the oven etc., get in
touch with your retail outlet immediately.
Using a microwave oven safely
◆ WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must
not be operated until it has been repaired by a trained person.
◆ WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a trained person
to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the
removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to
microwave energy.
◆ WARNING: Liquids or other foods must not be heated in sealed
containers since they are liable to explode.
◆ WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without
supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the
child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the
hazards of improper use.
◆ This microwave oven contains no user-serviceable components. Any
adjustments or repairs must be performed by a qualified technician.
◆ Never use the oven with the door open. There is the risk of being
exposed to dangerous microwave energy. Never manipulate or
tamper with the safety locks and the hinges of the door.
◆ Keep the seals and seal surfaces clean and free of contamination
like food remains and cleaner residue.
◆ Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive
boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.
◆ Use the microwave oven for cooking purposes only.
Do not use it to dry animals, clothing, paper or other objects or for
sterilisation or as a storage space for books, cooking utensils etc.
◆ Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use
in microwave ovens.
◆ When heating food in plastic or paper containers, check the oven
frequently due to the possibility of ignition.
◆ If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep
the door closed in order to stifle any flames.
The right place for your microwave oven
◆ The microwave oven should stand on a flat, stable surface. This
appliance is designed for standing only.
◆ The area immediately around the oven should be free to allow the
circulation of fresh air for cooling.
◆ Do not place the microwave oven near a radio or television set etc.
This might cause interference.

When preparing ready-to-serve food (like TV dinners) always carefully follow the
instructions provided by the food manufacturer on the package and also the tips and
guidelines contained at the end of this manual.
Cooking safely with microwaves
◆ Microwaves are high frequency electromagnetic waves like radio
waves. They create heat by causing the molecules in water, fat and
sugar to vibrate. They only penetrate a certain depth (e.g. approx.
25 mm into meat) and this heat is then conducted to the rest of the
item being cooked.
◆ Tableware must be suitable for use in a microwave oven.
For example, dishes made of temperature resistant glass, ceramics,
porcelain and plastic (in the case of combination cooking it should
also be fireproof).
Never place closed metal containers into your microwave oven the microwaves are reflected and the food will not get warm.
◆ In the case of TV dinners the food can be left in the aluminium tray
with the top removed.
◆ Microwaves can damage any crockery with gold or silver
decoration.
◆ Never place food in the oven in closed containers - the container
could explode.
◆ Food with a skin or peel can explode. Never place eggs in a
microwave. When cooking items such as potatoes, chicken livers
etc., puncture the skin using e.g. a fork to allow steam to escape.
◆ Never heat spirits (alcoholic drinks) to high temperatures; they may
self-ignite.
◆ When heating small amounts of liquid (e.g. a cup of tea/coffee),
place a spoon in the cup to prevent boiling over.
◆ Food which has been cooked with a microwave continues to cook
after the oven is switched off.
Before allowing others, in particular children or older people, to eat
food or drinks from the microwave oven check that the temperature
of the food is acceptable (danger of burning/scalding).
◆ Help the heat to spread uniformly by stirring and turning,
in particular after only short heating periods.
◆ Never turn the microwave oven on without food in the chamber -
it might overload and get damaged.
◆ Metal items, e.g. dishes, should not touch the walls of the oven,
this can cause sparking and could cause a fire.
◆ Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs shall not be heated in
microwave ovens since they may explode.
