Safety Information

Read carefully and keep for future reference Do not heat, or use ﬂ ammable materials in or near the oven. Fumes can create a ﬁ re hazard or explosion. Do not use your microwave oven for drying textiles, paper, spices, herbs, wood, ﬂ owers, fruit or other combustible materials. Fire could result. If material inside / outside the oven should ignite or smoke is observed, keep oven door closed and turn the oven off. Disconnect the power cord or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel. Do not over-cook food. Fire could result. Do not leave the oven unattended, especially 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. Do not use corrosive chemicals or vapors in this appliance. This type of oven is speciﬁ cally designed to heat or cook food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use. Only allow children to use the appliance under adult supervision and after adequate instructions have been given, so that the child is able to use the appliance in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, unless used under the supervision of a person responsible for their safety.

WARNING! Accessible parts may

become hot during use, young children should be kept away. Do not use your microwave oven for heating anything in airtight sealed containers. The pressure increases and may cause damage when opening or may explode. The door seals and the door seal areas must be regularly inspected for damage. If these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a trained service technician.

IMPORTANT: Eggs: Do not use your

microwave oven for cooking or reheating whole eggs with or without shell since they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.

Important precautions General

This appliance is designed for domestic use only! The appliance should not be operated without food inside. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance. If you practice operating the oven, put a glass of water inside. The water will absorb the microwave energy and the oven will not be damaged. Do not use the cavity for any storage purposes. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven.

ENGLISH 4

Deep-frying

Do not use your microwave oven for deepfrying, 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

Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol. After 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

There are a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use. Ensure that the utensils you use are oven proof and allow microwaves to pass through them before cooking. When you put food and accessories in the microwave 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. If 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. Always ensure that the turntable is able to turn 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

Use the Glass turntable with all cooking methods. It collects the dripping juices and food particles that otherwise would stain and soil the interior of the oven.

- Place the Glass turntable on the turntable support.

Baby bottle holder

Use the Baby bottle Holder when heating baby food in bottles that are too tall to stand-alone in the oven. Please see also, the chapter ”Precautions”, for more information about heating baby food. (Not available in the UK and Ireland).

Cover

The Cover is used to cover food during cooking and reheating with microwaves only and helps to reduce spattering, retain food moisture as well as reducing the time needed. Use the cover for two level reheating.

Steamer

Use the steamer with the strainer in place for such foods as ﬁ sh, vegetables and potatoes. Always place the steamer on the Glass Turntable.
