PRECAUTIONS

GENERAL

This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as :

- Staff kitchen areas in shops, ofces and other working environments;

- Farm houses;

- By clients in hotels, motels and other residential environments;

- Bed and breakfast type environments. No other use is permitted (e.g. heating rooms).

The appliance should not be operated without food in the oven when using microwaves. Operation in this manner is likely to damage the appliance.

The ventilation openings on the oven must not be covered. Blocking the air intake or exhaust vents may cause damage to the oven and poor cooking results.

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 store or use this appliance outdoors.

Do not use this product near a kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, or similar.

Do not use the cavity for any storage purposes.

Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in the oven. Do not use your microwave 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

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.

Always refer to a microwave cookbook for details. Especially, if cooking or reheating food that contains alcohol. Ensure the Lid and the Teat is removed before heating!
