below:
Never allow the power cable to come into contact with heat
sources or sharp edges. The power cable should not hang over
the side of the working surface. Ensure that no one can step on
or trip over the cable.
The power cable must not be folded, bent or tangled, and must
always remain fully unrolled. Never place the device or other
objects on the power cable.
Do not cover the cable. Keep away the cable from operating
range and do not immerse it into water.

plug in water or other liquids.
Do not use any acid agents and make sure no water ingresses
the device.
Never operate the device with moist hands or standing on wet
floor.
Remove the plug from its socket:

-before cleaning.
WARNING! Microwave radiation hazard!
Exposure to microwave radiation may cause bodily injury.
To avoid effects of this risk, follow the safety instructions
presented below:
Do not turn the microwave oven on when the door is open, as an
excess of damaging electromagnetic waves may be emitted by
the device. Never change the safety locks!

- 26 -
It is extremely important to not damage the door and that it can
be closed properly. Example of damage to the door which may
be unsafe include the following:
1. warping and indentations,
2. cracked and/or properly secured hinges and screws,
3. damaged door seals,
4. cracked glass pane,
5. Damaged elements of the safety lock system
The space between the door and the device must be free of
foreign objects.
Door seals must be tight and clean, as dirt and damage may allow
electromagnetic waves to escape from the microwave oven.
Take care to prevent buildup of any residues (e.g. cleaning
agents, dust, grease, etc.).
HOT SURFACE! Burn hazard!
To avoid effects of this risk, follow the safety instructions
presented below:
The surface of the device may become very hot. Do not touch
the hot surface of the device.
Do not place any objects on the device.
Do not place the microwave oven over the hob plate or any other
device which generates heat because the microwave oven may
be damaged due to the high temperature in which case the
guarantee may be voided.

WARNING! Burn hazard!
To avoid effects of this risk, follow the safety instructions
presented below:
Do not fry any food products in the device. Hot oil can lead to
skin burns or damage the device.
Food products prepared in the device are heated unevenly.
Also containers are usually hotter than the food products inside.
Carefully check the temperature of food products, in
particular those prepared for children. Risk of burns!
During the heating of liquids in the microwave oven it is possible
that the liquid may reach boiling temperature without externally
visible bubbling. For this reason, special care must be taken
when handling the container. Even a light bump, e.g. when
removing the liquid from the device, may lead to spillage.
Risk of burns!
For that reason avoid using tall, narrow containers with a
thin neck.
Place a spoon (only in exceptional cases use a metallic one) or
glass stirrer in the beverage, then place the dish in the center of
the rotating tray. Stir the liquid prior to heating and after half the
heating time has elapsed. After heating: wait for a moment,
carefully stir the liquid, then remove from the cooking chamber.
As food prepared in the microwave is heated unevenly, the
contents of children’s bottles must be mixed thoroughly -
optimally by shaking –then, before giving the bottle to the
child, check the temperature of the food. Risk of burns!
Prior to heating food remove the bottle cap and nipple!

WARNING! Fire or explosion hazard!
To avoid the effects of this risk, follow the safety instructions
presented below.
Never heat any flammable objects in the device.
Do not prepare any food products which contain alcohol.
Do not place any objects inside the device (cookbooks, sponges,
etc.). Sudden activation of the device can cause damage to such
objects, and even burn them.
When heating or cooking food products in containers from
flammable materials such as plastic or paper, remain near the
device as there is a risk of the device overheating.
If objects in the device catch fire, leave the door closed, turn the
device off and remove the plug from its socket OR flip the main
circuit breaker switch.
Do not use metallic pots, pans or covers. Metal may lead to
sparks in the cooking chamber. Use only dishes resistant to
high temperatures, designed for use in microwave ovens (see
sec. 5.3 „Suitable dishes for use in the microwave oven“).
Risk of fire!
Do not prepare food products and beverages in closed or sealed
containers. Such containers may crack inside the device or
injure the user when being opened!
Do not use the device for preparation of fresh or hard-boiled
eggs, either in shell or peeled, as eggs may explode.
Food products with thick skins, such as potatoes, pumpkins,
apples or chestnuts, should be pierced prior to heating.
Do not place solutions inside containing water, oil or grease,
as such a mixture may explode.
