IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

T

HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!

T

HE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food

in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in
this manner is likely to damage the appliance.

I

F YOU PRAC TICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass

of water inside. The water will absorb the mi­crowave energy and the oven will not be dam­aged.

O NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.

D

R

EMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or

plastic bags before placing bag in
the oven.

DEEPFRYING

O NOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE oven for

D

deep-frying, because the oil
temperature cannot be con­trolled.

SE HOT PADS OR OVEN MIT TS to prevent burns,

U

when touching containers, oven parts, and
pan after cooking.

LIQUIDS

E.

G. BEVERAGES OR WATER. Overheating the liquid

beyond boiling point can occur
without evidence of bubbling.
This could result in a sudden
boil over of the hot liquid.
To prevent this possibility the following steps
should be taken:

1. Avoid using straight-sided containers
with narrow necks.

2. Stir the liquid before placing the contain­er in the oven and let the teaspoon re­main in the container.

3. After heating, allow standing for a short
time, stirring again before carefully re­moving the container from the oven.

CAREFUL

A

LWAYS REFER to a microwave cookbook for de-

tails. Especially, if cooking or reheating food
that contains alcohol.

FTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a

A

baby bottle or in a baby food
jar, always stir and check the
temperature before serving.
This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed
and the risk of scalding or burns can be avoided.

Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed be­fore heating!

the market. Before you buy, ensure they are
suitable for microwave use.

NSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof

E

and allow microwaves to
pass through them before
cooking.

W

HEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACC ESSORIES in the micro-

wave oven, ensure that they do not come in
contact with the interior of the oven.

This is especially important with accesso­ries made of metal or metal parts.

F ACCESSOR IES CONTAIN ING METAL comes in contact

I

with the oven interior, while the oven is in op­eration, sparking can occur and the oven could
be damaged.

LWAYS ENSURE that the turntable is able to turn

A

freely before starting the oven.

TURNTABLE SUPPORT
USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
Glass turntable. Never put any oth­er utensils on the turntable sup­port.

 Fit the turntable support in the oven.

GLASS TURNTABLE
