Microwave safety
This oven is exclusively for domestic use! Use the oven only for preparing meals.
Avoid damaging the oven or other dangerous situations by following these instructions:
Do not switch on the oven without the turntable support, the turntable ring and the respective plate being in place.
Never switch on the microwave when it is empty. If there is no food inside there may be an electrical overcharge and the oven could be damaged. RISK OF DAMAGE!
For carrying out oven programming tests put a glass of water inside the oven. The water will absorb the microwaves and the oven will not be damaged.
Use only dishes suitable for microwaves. Before using dishes and containers in the microwave, check that these are suitable (see the section on types of dishes).
Never remove the mica cover on the ceiling of the oven interior! This cover stops fat and pieces of food damaging the microwave generator.
Do not keep any inflammable object inside the oven as it may burn if the oven is switched on.
Do not use the oven as a pantry.
Eggs with their shells and whole boiled eggs must not be heated in microwave ovens because they may explode.
Do not use the oven for frying as it is impossible to control the temperature of oil heated by microwaves.
To avoid being burnt, always use oven gloves for handling dishes and containers and touching the oven.
Do not lean or sit on the open oven door. This may damage the oven, especially in the hinge zone. The door can bear a maximum weight of 8 kg.
The turntable and the grills can bear a maximum load of 8 kg. To avoid damaging the oven, do not exceed this load.
Cleaning:
Warning! Your microwave oven must be cleaned regularly. All food remains must be removed (see section on Oven Cleaning). If the microwave oven is not kept clean its surface may deteriorate and this may
shorten the oven’s working life and could even result in a dangerous situation.
The door contact surfaces (the front of the cavity and the inside part of the doors) must be kept very clean in order to ensure the oven functions correctly.
Please follow the instructions regarding cleaning in the section “Oven Cleaning and Maintenance”.
Repairs:
Warning – Microwaves! The outer protection of the oven must not be removed. It is dangerous for anyone not authorised by the manufacturer to carry out any kind of repair or maintenance work.
If the power cable is damaged it should be substituted by the manufacturer, authorised agents or technicians qualified for this task in order to avoid dangerous situations. Furthermore, special tools are required for this task.
Repair and maintenance work, especially of current carrying parts, can only be carried out by technicians authorised by the manufacturer.
