operated until it has been repaired by an
authorized person.
Do not operate oven without food or load in oven
cavity.
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in
sealed containers since they are liable to explode.
Microwave heating of beverages can result in
delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must be
taken when handling the contents.
The contents of feeding bottles and baby food
jars shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature
checked before consumption, in order to avoid
burns.
Only use utensils that are suitable for use in
microwave ovens.
Do not put metal in the microwave oven.
When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of
ignition. If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug
the appliance and keep the door closed in order
to stifle any flames.
Eggs in their shell and whole hard-boiled eggs
should not be heated in microwave ovens since
they may explode, even after microwave heating
has ended.

to deterioration of the surface that could
adversely affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazardous situation.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Disconnect from power and allow to
cool before cleaning.
CAUTION: Steel cutting processes used in the
construction of this machine can result in sharp
edges. Avoid contact with sharp edges during
cleaning and maintenance.
CAUTION: Do not wipe plastic and painted
sections of the oven with bleach, thinners or other
cleaning agents, as this may cause these parts to
dissolve or change shape.
Toxic cleaners should be avoided when cleaning
the inside of the Microwave as they may contact
food.
Caustic cleaners should always be avoided, as
they may damage components inside and outside
the unit.
This unit is not suitable for cleaning with the use
of a water jet or immersion.
The door frame, seal and parts nearby must be
cleaned carefully with a damp cloth when they are
dirty.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers to clean the oven door components
since they can scratch the surface, causing
damage to the door or shielding mesh within.
If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced
by a cord set supplied by
Roband. Internal maintenance should only be
performed by a Roband or one of our service
agents in order to avoid a hazard.
Cleaning the control panel:
Do not use detergent or an alkaline spray to clean
the control panel as this may cause damage. Use
a dry or a cloth lightly dampened with water to
clean.
Cleaning the Microwave interior:
After use, clean up any spilled liquids, spattered
oil and food as quickly as possible. If the oven is
used while dirty the efficiency drops and the food
may get stuck on the interior. Clean the interior
with a cloth soaked in warm water with mild
detergent dissolved in it, and then rinse the soap
off with a damp cloth.
Regular cleaning will prevent a build-up of oils
and foodstuff and keep the machine looking new.
