This is merely condensation from the heat of the food and does not affect the safety of your oven. The door is not intended to seal the oven cavity completely.

Safety instructions when cooking with grill, convection and combination modes

Suitability of utensils for microwave cooking

•Utensils should be checked to ensure they are suitable for use in microwave ovens. Place a utensil in the oven along with a glass half full of water. Heat on maximum microwave power (900W) for one minute. If the utensil feels hot, you should not use it. If it is just slightly warm, you can use it for reheating but not for cooking. If the utensil is at room temperature, it is suitable for microwave cooking.

•Always be sure containers are filled with food to absorb energy and thus avoid the possibility of overheating or ignition.

•Avoid using plastic utensils with foods that have high fat or sugar content since these foods reach high temperatures and could melt some plastics.

•Do not leave oven unattended, when heating or cooking food in plastic, paper or other combustible containers.

•Metal utensils and utensils with metallic trim should not be used in the microwave oven, unless specifically recommended for microwave use.

•Containers with restricted openings, such as bottles, should not be used for microwave cooking.

•Use caution when removing a lid or cover from a dish to avoid steam burns.
