Safety tips
• To minimize the risk of fire in the appliance: When heating food in plastic or
paper containers, always keep an eye on the appliance when it is in operation,
as these materials can catch fire.
• When heating drinks in the appliance, bubbling may be delayed when the
drink boils. Therefore, be careful when handling the container.
To avoid sudden simmering:
– If possible, place a glass rod in the fluid for as long as it is being heated.
– To avoid an unexpected reboiling, leave the fluid to stand in the appliance
oven for ca. 20 seconds after being warmed up.
• Puncture the skins of potatoes, sausages or similar. Otherwise, they could explode.
• Proceed with caution when warming up fluids. Use only open containers, so
that any air bubbles produced can escape.
• If the appliance starts to give off smoke it should be switched off immediately
or the plug removed from the mains and the door should be kept closed to
smother any flames that might otherwise escape.
• Eggs in their shells and hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in the appliance
as they could explode, even on completion of the heating process. Food with
thick skins, such as potatoes, whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must be
pricked before cooking.
• Do not transport the appliance when it is in use.

Before you begin
Basic principles of microwave cookery
• Arrange the food with consideration.
• The thickest parts near the edges.
• Pay attention to the cooking time. Select the
shortest possible stated cooking time and in-
crease as required. Food that is cooked too
long can begin to smoke or catch fire.
• Cover the food during cooking with a lid suitable
for microwave cookery. The lid prevents splashing
and helps in the even cooking of the food.
• While cooking, turn the food in the microwave
once so that items such as chicken or hamburgers
are cooked more quickly.
• Large pieces of food, such as joints of meat,
must be turned at least once.
• Completely re-arrange foods such as meatballs
after half the cooking time. Turn them and
move the meatballs from the middle of the
cookware to the edge.
Use suitable cookware
• The ideal material for a microwave oven is
microwave-permeable, allowing the energy
to penetrate the container to heat the food.
Microwaves cannot permeate metal. For this
reason metal containers and cookware may
not be used.
• When using the microwave for heating do not
use products made of recycled paper. These
can contain minute fragments of metal, which
can generate sparks and/or fires.
• We recommend the use of round/oval cook-
ware instead of square or oblong containers,
as food in corner areas tends to overcook.
The following list provides general hints to
assist you in selecting the correct cookware.

to the generation of sparks. This could cause a fire
and irreparably damage the appliance!
Commissioning
Installation of the appliance
Risk of fire!
This microwave oven is not suitable for installation
in a kitchen cabinet. In closed cabinets sufficient
ventilation for the appliance cannot be assured.
