IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety
Do not use corrosive chemicals or
~
vapors in this appliance.
Do not use the oven to heat the
~
room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the oven could catch fire.
Times for cooking, heating and
~
defrosting food in the convection microwave oven are shorter than that of traditional food preparation methods. Extensive microwaving could dry out food and cause possible ignition. Fire hazard!
Do not use the microwave function
~
to dry bread, flowers, herbs, etc. Use the Convection Bake function.
Do not heat cushions filled with
~
herbs, gel, etc. with the microwave function. The cushions could ignite, even once removed from the oven after heating. This is a fire hazard.
Do not use full power when warming
~
empty dishes or drying herbs. The lack or minimal amount of food could cause damage to the appliance.
Do not use for cleaning and
~
disinfecting utensils and cookware. There is a risk of burns from the high temperatures from the utensil when it is taken out of the oven. This is a fire hazard.
Supervise cooking with grease or
~
oils. Oils and grease could ignite.
Never heat undiluted alcohol in the
~
microwave oven, it can easily ignite.
If materials inside the oven ignite,
~
keep the oven door closed to avoid fueling any flames. Turn the oven off or disconnect the power supply.
If smoke occurs in the oven, to avoid
~
fueling any flames, do not open the oven door. Switch the appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF button, switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the outlet. Do not open the oven door until the smoke has dispersed.
To avoid corrosion damage from
~
condensation:
– Cover meals when cooking with the
Microwave Solo function.
– When using residual heat to keep
food warm, leave the selected function on and select the lowest temperature. Do not turn the oven off. Condensation from food and drinks could cause damage to the machine or the countertop and cabinetry. Leaving the machine on will keep the fan running to aid in dissipating the condensation.
Cover food stored in the oven interior. Condensation from food and drinks could cause corrosion damage. It also prevents the food from drying out.

~
line the oven floor. To avoid damage, do not place pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven floor.
Microwave function
PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to damage or tamper with the safety interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.
The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.
Do not operate the convection
~
microwave oven empty! The oven will be damaged.
Be sure to use cookware suitable for
~
the function being used. See "Selecting cookware". The provided combi rack is specially designed for use in this oven.
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not leave the appliance
~
unattended when heating food in disposable, e.g. plastic, paper or other flammable materials. See "Selecting cookware".
Do not use the oven to heat food in
~
heat retaining packaging, e.g. take-out food packaging. This packaging contains a thin layer of aluminum foil which reflects the microwaves. This reflected energy can cause the paper layer to ignite.
Before serving food allow a
~
sufficient standing time. Always check the temperature of the food itself after taking it out of the microwave oven. Do not judge by the plate temperature. The heat is created in the food, the dishes may stay cool to the touch.
Always check the temperature
~
before serving heated baby food.
Use a food thermometer to measure
~
the foods temperature. Do not use thermometers containing mercury or liquids, they are not suitable for high temperatures and break easily.
Never cook or reheat food and
~
liquids in sealed containers or bottles. Remove the nipple or lid before heating in the microwave oven. Built-up pressure may cause them to burst. Danger of injuries.
When heating liquids, the provided
~
boiling wand should be placed into the container.
When heating liquids, milk, sauces,
~
etc., in the oven without the boiling wand, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached without the production of bubbles. The liquid will not boil evenly. This "boiling delay" can cause a sudden build up of steam bubbles, when the container is removed from the oven or shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and explosively. Danger of burning!
The built-up pressure may force the
~
oven door open. This could result in injury or damage. The boiling wand ensures that the liquid boils evenly and that steam bubbles form at an early stage.
Always check that food is sufficiently
~
heated. The time required varies depending on a number of factors, such as initial temperature, quantity, type and consistency of the food, and changes in the recipe. Germs present in the food are killed off only at a sufficiently high temperature (> 158° F) and after a sufficiently long time (> 10 Min.). Select a longer cook time if you are unsure if food is thoroughly heated. To ensure temperature is distributed evenly, stir and rotate food occasionally before serving.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Eggs must only be cooked in their
~
shells in the microwave oven in a device designed specifically for microwave egg boiling. Hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave oven. The eggs may burst, even once they have been removed from the oven.
Eggs can be cooked without their
~
shells in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punctured first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode. Danger of injuries.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such
~
as tomatoes, sausages and potatoes should be pierced in several places before cooking to allow steam to vent and prevent the food from bursting.
Do not use dishware with hollow
~
handles or lid knobs. Moisture can get into the hollow parts. (The hollow parts of some dishware can be vented). Danger of built-up pressure and the explosion of the hollow parts may cause injuries.
Solo functions: Convection Bake, Auto Roast, Broil, Convection Broil
Caution! Danger of burns! When using solo functions the oven interior gets very hot.
Be sure to use cookware suitable for
~
the function being used. See "Selecting cookware".
Use pot holders when working with
~
a hot appliance. Especially the upper heating element gets extremely hot when using any broil function. Danger of burning!
