• N’utilisez pas de rallonge.
• Gardez le cordon d’alimentation au sec et évitez de le pincer ou de l’écraser. Le non-respect de cette
consigne peut entraîner un risque d’incendie.
• Ne retirez en aucun cas la broche de mise à la terre du cordon d’alimentation.
• Une utilisation inadéquate de la fiche de mise à la terre peut causer une décharge électrique et/ou un
incendie.
Si vous n’êtes pas sûr que le four est correctement mis à la terre, ou si vous ne comprenez pas bien les
instructions de mise à la terre, consultez un électricien qualifié.
• N’utilisez pas de fusible dans le circuit neutre ou de mise à la terre.
• Une mise à la terre incorrecte pourrait provoquer une décharge électrique, un incendie ou d’autres
blessures.
Fonctionnement
• Si vous ne respectez pas les instructions d’utilisation du four à micro-ondes, vous risquez d’être exposé à
une trop grande quantité d’énergie micro-ondes.
• N’essayez pas de faire fonctionner le four à micro-ondes avec la porte ouverte.
• N’essayez pas de modifier ou d’annuler les verrouillages de sécurité.
• Ne placez pas d’objets entre la façade du four à micro-ondes et la porte.
• Ne laissez pas de la saleté ni de résidus de nettoyant s’accumuler sur les surfaces plates autour de la
porte du four à micro-ondes.
• Ne faites pas fonctionner le four à micro-ondes s’il est endommagé.
• La porte du four à micro-ondes doit être fermée correctement pour que celui-ci fonctionne de façon
sécuritaire.
• N’utilisez pas le four à micro-ondes si :
- la porte est déformée.
- les charnières ou les loquets sont cassés ou desserrés.
- les joints de la porte, les surfaces d’étanchéité ou le verre sont cassés.
• N’essayez pas de régler ou de réparer le four vous-même. Il faut le faire régler et réparer par un
technicien qualifié, qui pourra vérifier qu’il n’y a pas de fuite de micro-ondes après avoir réparé le four.
