- 7 -
Danger: Only permit children unsupervised
use of the microwave oven when they have
received adequate instruction in its operation.
Children must understand the dangers from
improper usage.
• To minimize the risk of fire in the microwave:
When heating food in plastic or paper containers, always keep an eye on the microwave
when it is in operation, as these materials can
catch fire.
• Remove closures containing wire from paper
or plastic bags, before placing them in the
microwave.
• Should you notice smoke, switch the appliance
off or pull the plug from the socket and keep the
door closed to suffocate any possible flames.
• Do not use the interior of the microwave for
storage purposes. Do not leave paper items,
cooking utensils or food in the microwave
when it is not being used.
Important: Liquids and other foods must not
be heated in airtight containers, as these may
explode and damage the appliance. When
heating beverages in the microwave, bubbling
may be delayed when the drink boils. Therefore, be careful when handling the container.
• Do not fry in the microwave. Hot oil can
damage parts of the appliance and utensils
and even cause skin burns.
• Eggs in their shells and hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in the microwave, as
they may explode, even after completion of
the heating process.
Food with thick skins, such as potatoes, whole
pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must be
pricked before cooking.
The content of babies’ bottles or jars of baby
food should be shaken or stirred.
Danger: Before feeding, check the temperature
to avoid potentially lethal burns for babies.
Cooking utensils may become hot from the heat
emitted by the food, so you may require oven
gloves to touch them. In this case it should be
checked if the cooking utensils are suitable for
use in the microwave.
Danger: Microwave radiation is dangerous!
Arrange for service and repair work, in which
the coverings that protect you from contact with
microwave radiation need to be removed, to
be carried out only by trained specialists.
Danger: Inadequate cleanliness of the cooking
appliance can lead to destruction of the upper
surface, which on your part influences the total
period of use and could possibly lead to dangerous situations.
Earthing notice/Correct Installation
This appliance must be earthed. The appliance has
a lead with an earthing wire and earthing connector. A correspondingly installed and earthed
wall socket is required for this. In the case of a short
circuit, earthing with the earthing cable reduces
the risk of an electric shock. An individual circuit
solely for the connection of the microwave is
recommended. The use of high voltages is
dangerous and can cause fires or other accidents,
resulting in damage to the appliance.
Danger: Improper use of the earthing connector
can cause the risk of an electric shock.
NOTE: Should you have any questions about
earthing or the instructions on the use of this
electrical appliance, please consult an
electrician or a maintenance technician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer can accept
liability for damage to the microwave oven or injury
to persons resulting from failure to comply with the
instructions for electrical connection.

Interference with other appliances
The operation of the microwave can cause interference on your radio, television or similar appliances.
If such interference should occur, it may be reduced
or corrected with the following remedial measures:
• Clean the door and the seal of the microwave.
• Re-align the receiver antenna of your radio or
television.
• Position the microwave in a different place to
the receiver.
• Move the microwave away from the receiver.
• Plug the microwave into another wall socket.
The microwave and the receiver should be
connected to different circuits.
Before you begin
Basic principles of microwave cookery
• Arrange the food sensibly.
• The thickest parts near the edges.
• Pay attention to the cooking time. Select the
shortest possible stated cooking time and
increase as required. Food that is cooked
too long can begin to smoke or catch fire.
• Cover the food during cooking with a lid
suitable for microwave cookery. The lid
prevents splashing and helps in the even
cooking of the food.
• While cooking, turn the food in the microwave
once so that items such as chicken or hamburgers are cooked more quickly.
• Large pieces of food such as joints of meat
must be turned at least once.
• Completely re-arrange foods such as meatballs
after half the cooking time. Turn them and
place the meatballs from the middle of the
tabelware to the edge.
Use suitable cookware
• The ideal material for a microwave oven is
microwave-permeable, allowing the energy
to penetrate the container to heat the food.
Microwave cannot penetrate metal. Therefore
metal containers and cookware should not be
used.
• When heating in the microwave, do not use
items which made of recycling paper. This can
contain tiny metal fragements which generate
sparks and/or even cause fires.
• We recommend the use of round/oval cookware instead of square or oblong containers,
as food in corner areas tends to overcook.
The following list is intended to assist you in
selecting the correct tableware.
