INTRODUCTION

To get the best out of your new microwave oven, please read through these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. Pay particular attention to the safety measures. We also recommend that you keep the instructions for future reference, so that you can remind yourself of the functions of your microwave oven.

taken to an authorised service centre. If the appliance is subjected to unauthorised repairs, the guarantee will become void. Contact your retailer if the repairs fall under the terms of the guarantee.

Fire hazard!

To reduce the risk of fire occurring in the oven compartment, please note the following points:

Do not cook food for too long or at too high a temperature, and do not leave the microwave oven unattended if paper, plastic or other flammable materials have been used in the microwave oven with a view to reducing cooking times.

Foods with a high fat content may ignite if the microwave power is too high or if they are being grilled. Be careful when preparing roast pork, for example.

Metal clips and lids/film containing metallic threads can cause sparks in the microwave oven and must therefore be removed.

If fire or smoke occurs in the oven compartment, leave the door closed. Switch the microwave oven off immediately, and remove the plug from the wall socket.

IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES

The microwave oven may only be used for its original purpose, i.e. for preparing food for domestic purposes.

The microwave oven is for indoor use only.

Do not use the microwave oven if the cord or plug is damaged, if it is not functioning properly, or if it has been damaged by a heavy impact or similar.

The cord or plug must not be submerged in water, and the microwave oven must not be used in a wet or damp environment.

Do not place the microwave oven or the cord near hot areas, for example, gas rings and electric hotplates.

Do not touch the microwave oven when the convection or grill function is being used as it gets very hot.

Do not block or cover any vent holes on the microwave oven.

Position the microwave oven so that there is sufficient space on all sides.

Do not switch the microwave oven on when it is empty. In order for the microwave oven to be able to absorb microwaves, there must be something in it (food), otherwise it may be damaged. If you would like to practise using the various functions, place a cup of water inside the microwave oven.

The door safety lock system must not be modified in any way. Do not use the microwave oven if the safety locking system is not functioning, which means that the microwave oven could be switched on even if the door is not closed. If the door is open, you risk being exposed to microwave radiation.

Make sure that dirt or cleaning agent residue does not collect on the contact surfaces between the microwave oven’s front and oven door.

Clean the microwave oven regularly and do not use it if there are cleaning agent residues inside it.

Never heat oil or fat in the microwave oven.

Never store utensils or foodstuffs in the oven compartment.

Keep an eye on any children in the vicinity of the appliance when it is in use.

Always follow the advice in the ‘Tips for food preparation’ section.

Never try to repair the microwave oven yourself.

If the microwave oven, cord or plug need to be repaired, it should be
