D
cially when using paper, plastic or oth­er combustible materials in the cook­ing process. Paper can char or burn and some plastics can melt if used when heating foods.
NLY ALLOW CHILDREN to use the oven without
O
adult supervision after adequate instruc­tions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and un­derstands the hazards of improper use. The appliance is not intended for use by young children or in rm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. If your oven has a combina­tion mode, children should only use the oven under adult supervision due to the high temperatures generated.

PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
HIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY!
T
HE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED without food
T
in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.
F YOU PRAC TICE OPERATING the oven, put a glass
I
of water inside. The water will absorb the mi­crowave energy and the oven will not be dam­aged.
O NOT USE THE CAVIT Y for any storage purposes.
D
REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.
DEEPFRYING
D
O NOT USE YOUR MI CROWAVE oven 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 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.
A
FTER HEATING BABY FOOD or liquids in 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!

ACCESSORIES
GENERAL
HERE ARE a number of accessories available on
T
the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use.
E
NSURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are oven proof
and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking.
W
HEN YOU PUT FOOD AND ACCESSORIES 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.
I
F ACCESSORIES CONTAINING METAL comes in contact
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
SE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
U
Glass turntable. Never put any oth­er utensils on the turntable sup­port.
 Fit the turntable support in the oven.
