9
1 Safety precautions
Always open sealed food containers before placing them in the cooking
space. Danger of explosion due to excess pressure!

Caution: Risk of burns!

The appliance gets very hot when in use. The appliance door also gets hot.
Steam and/or hot air may escape from the cooking space when the appli-
ance door is opened.
The appliance will remain hot for some time after it is switched off and will
only cool down slowly to room temperature. Allow sufficient time for the ap­pliance to cool down before, for instance, cleaning it.
Overheated fat and oil can easily catch fire. Heating oil in the cooking
space to sear meat is dangerous and should not be done. Never attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with water. Danger of explosion! Smother the flames with a fire blanket. Keep doors and windows closed.
Do not pour spirits (brandy, whisky, schnapps, etc.) over hot food. Danger
of explosion!
Do not leave the appliance unattended when drying herbs, bread, mush-
rooms, etc. If the foodstuff dries out too much, it can pose a fire hazard.
If you notice smoke possibly coming from the appliance itself or from inside
the cooking space, keep the appliance door closed. Disconnect the appli­ance from the power supply.
Accessories get hot in the cooking space. Use protective gloves or oven
cloths.
Do not heat up alcoholic beverages!
When heating liquids in a microwave, place a teaspoon in the vessel to pre-
vent delayed boiling. When delayed boiling occurs, the boiling temperature is reached without the usual steam bubbles rising. Disturbing a vessel, even slightly, can cause the liquid to erupt if the container is open. Do not use vessels with a narrow lip.

Caution: Risk of injury!

Be careful not to put fingers in the door hinges, there is otherwise a risk of
injury if the appliance door is moved. Particular care should be taken when children are around.
Only leave the appliance door open in the at-rest position. An open appli-
ance door poses a danger of tripping or injury! Do not sit or rest on the ap­pliance door or use it as a storage surface.
For hobs: A hob guard can be fitted to protect small children. Hob guards
are available from specialist retailers.
10
1 Safety precautions
Caution: Risk to life!
Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging material, e.g. plastic film and poly-
styrene, away from children. Packaging material can be dangerous for chil­dren.

How to avoid damaging the appliance

Close the appliance door carefully.
For appliances with visible bottom heating element: Do not place any ob-
jects directly on the bottom heating element.
Do not use protective aluminium inserts with appliances with no visible bot-
tom heating element.
Do not use objects that can rust in the cooking space.
Using knives or cutting wheels on the baking tray will visibly damage the
surface.
To prevent corrosion, leave the appliance door open in the at-rest position
until the cooking space has cooled down.
When cleaning the appliance, make sure no water gets inside it. Use a
moderately damp cloth. Do not spray the outside or the inside of the appli­ance with water. If water gets inside the appliance, it will cause damage.
The construction of the appliance may not be changed in any way. Do not
apply force to or interfere with the appliance door or the control and safety devices. The illumination may only be replaced by our Customer Services.
Take care not to damage the appliance door, the door frame and the door
hinges.
Ensure that nothing is trapped between the appliance door and the frame.
Do not switch the microwave on until you have put the food in the cooking
space.

1.5 Accessories

Risk of burns! The accessories get very hot during use. Use protective gloves or oven cloths.

Turntable roller and glass turntable

Use the appliance at all times and exclusively with the turntable roller and
the glass turntable supplied.

Do not place hot food or containers on the glass turntable when it is cold.
Do not place frozen food or containers on the glass turntable when it is hot.

CombiCrunch plate

Only use the CombiCrunch plate in the CombiCrunch mode.
Never use the CombiCrunch plate in the CombiCrunch mode together with
the wire rack.
Never use the CombiCrunch plate as a stand for dishes or containers.

Wire rack

Always place the wire rack in the centre of the glass turntable.
Never lay metal dishes on the wire rack in combi mode. This could cause
sparks which could damage the appliance.
Never use the wire rack for favourite, microwave or CombiCrunch operation.
This could cause sparks which could damage the appliance.

Food cover

Only use the food cover in microwave mode. Otherwise, the food cover
could melt.

Cookware

Ensure the cookware does not touch the sides of the cooking space as it
rotates.
Use only heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware, such as glass, ceramic,
porcelain, or heat-resistant plastics. Microwaves can penetrate these materi­als. Microwaves cannot or can only partially penetrate metal cookware; food in this instance will remain cold. If you use metal cookware, arcing may oc­cur which could damage the appliance.
Only use cookware with a metal decor, e.g. a gold rim, or food in aluminium
containers if the manufacturer guarantees their microwave compatibility. This also applies to products made from recycled paper.
Do not use a meat thermometer. The features of meat thermometers can
cause arcing in the microwave mode, which will damage your appliance.
Porcelain, ceramic and earthenware cookware may have cavities. These
can fill with water, causing the dishware to crack. Follow the manufacturers' instructions.
