Important safety instructions

GENERAL
T
HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE
ONLY!
THE 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 PRACTICE OPERATING the oven, put a bowl
of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged.
D
O NOT USE THE CAVITY for any storage purposes.
REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
DEEP-FRYING
D
O NOT USE YOUR APPLIANCE FOR DEEP-FRYING, BECAUSE THE OIL TEMPERATURE CANNOT BE CONTROLLED.
USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent
burns, 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 boiling 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. Be sure not to allow the teaspoon to touch the oven sides, or ceiling whilst microwaving, or sparking can occur.
3. After heating, allow standing for a short time,
stirring again before carefully removing the container from the oven.
CAREFUL
D
O NOT USE THE MICROWAVE FUNCTION when
cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol.
A
FTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in a baby bottle
or in a baby food jar, always stir thoroughly 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!
TEMPERATURE COOKING
T
HE TEMPERATURE PROBE should normally be
inserted so that the tip of the probe is positioned in the thickest part of the food, as this is the part that takes the longest time to heat.
T
HE TIP OF THE PROBE must not touch any bones.
Also, avoid placing the probe in fatty areas of the food as these areas heat up more quickly giving misleading temperatures. The probe should, if possible, be positioned so that the tip does not touch the walls or the bottom of the cooking vessel.
T
HE TEMPERATURE which is set must be higher
than the current temperature of the food. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE to use the probe when making
sweets, jam and marmalade, or dishes which need to be cooked or simmered for a long period. This is because the; highest temperature which can be set is 90°C.
N
EVER IMMERSE the probe in water when cleaning.
Simply wipe clean with a clean, damp cloth or kitchen roll after use.
THE OVEN MUST NOT BE OPERATED with the temperature probe in the cavity if it is not plugged into the oven. If you do operate the oven without complying with the above you will damage the probe.
