Warning and Safety instructions

It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly throughout the food being cooked.

This can be achieved by stirring and/or turning the food, and by observing a sufficiently long standing time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking, reheating or defrosting.

Always remember that cooking, reheating and defrosting times using microwave power are usually

considerably shorter than with traditional methods of food preparation (Fan plus, Grill). Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and burning, or could even cause it to catch fire. Do not use the microwave function to dry breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, grain etc. Use the Fan plus function for this type of procedure and do not leave the oven unattended.

Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or pads filled

with cherry kernels, wheat grain, lavender or gel, such as those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated even after they have been removed from the appliance.

Exercise caution when cooking or reheating food with a high sugar

content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If heated for too long the sugar may caramelise or ignite.

Do not use full power to warm empty dishes. The lack of food or

incorrect loading could cause damage to the appliance.

Do not leave the oven unattended when cooking with oils and fats as

these can be a fire hazard if allowed to overheat.

If smoke occurs in the oven, to avoid fuelling any flame do not

open the oven door. Turn the function selector to "0", or switch off at the mains and remove the plug from the socket. Do not open the oven door until the smoke has dispersed.

Never heat undiluted alcohol in the oven as this can easily ignite.

Do not heat up tins in the appliance. Pressure can build up

and they may explode, resulting in injury or damage.

Cover any food which is left in the oven to be kept hot, as moisture in

the food could lead to corrosion damage in the oven. This also prevents the food from drying out.

Try to avoid the interior walls being splashed with food or liquids

containing salt. If it does happen wipe these away thoroughly, to avoid corrosion on stainless steel surfaces.

The glass tray and the combi rack take a maximum load of 8 kg.

Exceeding this weight limit can cause them damage.

Do not lean or sit on an open oven door, or place heavy items on it.

This could damage the appliance. The oven door can support a maximum load of 8 kg.
