1.4 IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

Read carefully these instructions and keep for future reference.

N.B. This oven has been designed to defrost, heat and cook food in the home. It must never be used for other purposes, modified or tampered with in any way.

1)WARNING: If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repai- red by a competent person (trained by the manufacturer or by its Customer Service).

2)WARNING: It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry out any service or repair ope- ration which involves the removal of a cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

3)WARNING: Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed containers since they are liable to explo- de. Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave heating has ended.

4)WARNING: The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when 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.

5)WARNING: when operating in combi mode, the oven becomes extremely hot. Do not allow children to use it without adult supervision.

6)Do not attempt to operate the oven with the door open by tampering with the safety devices.

7)Do not operate the oven if objects for any kind get stuck between the front panel of the oven and the door.

Always keep the inside of the door (E) clean, using a damp cloth and non-abrasive detergents. Do not allow dirt or remains of food to accumulate between the front panel of the oven on the door.

8) Do not operate the oven if the supply cable or the plug is damaged, as this may result in electric shocks.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

9)If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and KEEP THE DOOR CLO- SED in order to stifle any flames.

10) Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens.

11)Never place the turntable in water after it has ben heated for a long time. The high thermal shock resulting would break the turntable.
