cooking compartment door or the door
seal is damaged. Never use the appliance
if the cooking compartment door or the
door seal is damaged. Contact the aftersales service.
Risk of serious damage to health!
■
Microwave energy will escape from
appliances that do not have any casing.
Never remove the casing. For any
maintenance or repair work, contact the
after-sales service.
Risk of electric shock!
■
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.
Risk of electric shock and serious injury!
■
The cable insulation on electrical
appliances may melt when touching hot
parts of the appliance. Never bring
electrical appliance cables into contact
with hot parts of the appliance.
Risk of electric shock!
■
Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or
steam cleaners, which can result in an
electric shock.
Risk of electric shock!
■
When replacing the cooking compartment
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.
Risk of electric shock!
■
A defective appliance may cause electric
shock. Never switch on a defective
appliance. Unplug the appliance from the
mains or switch off the circuit breaker in
3
the fuse box. Contact the after-sales
service.
Risk of electric shock!
■
The appliance is a high-voltage appliance.
Never remove the casing.
Risk of burns!
■
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.
Risk of serious burns!
■
Accessories and ovenware become very
hot. Always use oven gloves to remove
accessories or ovenware from the cooking
compartment.
Risk of burns!
■
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.
Risk of burns!
■
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 yolk 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.
Risk of burns!
■
Heat is not distributed evenly through
baby food. Never heat baby food in closed
containers. Always remove the lid or teat.
Stir or shake well after the food has been
heated. Check the temperature of the food
before it is given to the child.
Risk of burns!
■
Heated food gives off heat. The ovenware
may become hot. Always use oven gloves
to remove ovenware or accessories from
the cooking compartment.
Risk of burns!
■
Airtight packaging may burst when food is
heated. Always observe the instructions
on the packaging. Always use oven gloves
to remove dishes from the cooking
compartment.
Risk of scalding!
■
When you open the appliance door, hot
steam may escape. Open the appliance
door with care. Keep children at a safe
distance.
Risk of scalding!
■
Water in a hot cooking compartment may
create hot steam. Never pour water into
the hot cooking compartment.
Risk of scalding!
■
There is a possibility of delayed boiling
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.
Risk of injury!
■
Scratched glass in the appliance door
may develop into a crack. Do not use a
glass scraper, sharp or abrasive cleaning
aids or detergents.
Risk of injury!
■
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.
Causes of damage
Caution!
■ 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.
■ Water in the cooking compartment when the cooking
compartment is hot: Never pour water into the cooking
compartment when the cooking compartment is hot. Steam
will be created. The temperature change can cause damage
to the ceramic floor panel.
■ Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the appliance.
They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
■ 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.
■ 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.
4
■ 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").
■ Never use the enamel baking tray when cooking with
microwave operation. It will result in a technical fault.
Energy and environment tips
■ 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.
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the
operating instruction tables.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They
absorb the heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during cooking,
baking or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking
compartment is still warm. This may reduce the baking time for
the second cake.

■ 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.
Notes regarding ovenware
Suitable ovenware
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.
Unsuitable ovenware
Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves
to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain
cold.
Caution!
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.
Ovenware test
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:
1. Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to
1 minute.
2. Check the temperature occasionally during that time.
The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are
generated.
