SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

AREA OF USE

• This appliance is intended exclusively for domestic use. It may only be used for heating suitable foods in containers suitable for use in microwave ovens.
• When heating food in plastic or paper containers, the cooking appliance must be checked frequency because of the possibility of fire.
• The microwave oven is not suitable for preparing deep fried food. The ap­pliance is also not suitable for drying objects. Caution - fire risk!
• Note that children may not use the appliance, since children are not yet able to recognise the hazards that may arise when dealing with electrical ap­pliances.

SETTING UP AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Only connect the microwave oven to a regulation-compliant 230 V, 50 Hz socket with a protection/fuse current of at least 16 A. Do not use an exten­sion cable.
• Place the appliance on a sturdy, level surface in a protected, dry area.
• Respect the minimum clearances and never cover the ventilation slots. Place nothing on top of the microwave oven as it becomes hot when in operation.
• Protect the appliance from drips and splashes. If the appliance, neverthe­less, comes into contact with water, pull the plug from the socket immedia­tely.
CAUTION:
During operation, the accessible surfaces can beco­me very hot!

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

• Only use the microwave oven with the roller ring and turntable supplied.
• Never operate the appliance without food in the oven.
• Only use the accessories supplied or approved by us.
• Only use crockery that is suitable for use in microwave ovens.

Caution! Hot surface!
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• In microwave mode, never use crockery with metallic decoration, metallic containers or grill stands, as damage to the appliance may result.
• Do not remove any covers from the microwave oven or the inner foil from the viewing window, as microwave radiation can then be emitted.
• Never leave the appliance unattended during operation.
• Inadequate cleanliness of the appliance can lead to destruction of the sur­face, reducing the useful life and possibly leading to dangerous situations.
CAUTION:
When heating liquids in the microwave oven, superheating can occur, i.e. the liquid can reach boiling point without steam being released. When agitated, as may occur when removing the vessel from the oven, the steam may be ex­plosively released.
There is a risk of scalding.
To avoid this problem, remember, when heating liquids, to place a glass or ceramic rod in the container. This will inhibit delayed boiling.
• Never heat food in closed containers. Always remove the lid from jars and bottles, such as baby bottles.
• Before heating food with skins, such as sausages or tomatoes, prick the skin at various points to avoid bursting.
• Only cook eggs in microwave crockery designed for the purpose.
• Do not warm up hard-boiled eggs in the microwave oven.
Eggs that have already been cooked can explode even after being removed from the oven!

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Where possible, stir food after heating to distribute the heat evenly or leave it to stand for a while.
• Before eating, check the temperature of food heated in the microwave oven. Take special care with babyfood and always stir or shake children's food before checking the temperature.

FAULTS

• Protect the appliance and the mains cable from damage.
• Before each use, check the appliance and the mains cable for damage.
• If found to be damaged, the appliance should under no circumstances be used. Pull the mains plug from the socket immediately.
• A defective appliance or damaged mains cable should be repaired without delay in an approved workshop or you should contact the Medion Service department to avoid taking risks.
WARNING!
It is dangerous for anyone other than properly trained persons to carry out any maintenance or repair work, which involves the removal of any covers that prevent exposure to microwave radiation.
• If smoke is observed, it is essential to keep the door closed to avoid the for­mation of flames or to smother any that have already formed and turn the appliance off immediately by pressing the STOP/CLEAR button.
• The mains plug must then be pulled from the socket without delay.
• The appliance may never be switched on if there is damage to the casing, the door or the door latch. Have the appliance repaired in an approved workshop or contact the Medion Service department.
• Place the microwave oven on a sturdy, level, heat-proof surface. Respect the minimum clearances.
• Ensure that the microwave oven is not too close to a source of heat or in an area in which it may come into contact with water.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ABOUT MICROWAVES

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves that heat food placed in the oven cavity. Microwaves heat all non-metallic objects. You should, the­refore, use no metallic objects in the microwave oven. These heating effect de­pends on the water content of the food. To achieve optimum heat distribution, allow food to stand for one or two minute after removing it from the oven.
