IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

All appliances

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed including

the following.

WARNING –To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons, or exposure to

excessive microwave energy:

1) Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2) Read and follow the specific ‘PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE

MICROWAVE ENERGY’ on page 3.

3) The appliance must be grounded. Connect only to a dedicated branch and properly

grounded outlet.

4) Install or locate this appliance only in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

5) Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers –for example, closed glass jars –

can explode and should not be heated in this oven.

6) Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in the manual. Do not use corrosive

chemicals or vapours in this appliance. This type of oven is specifically designed to heat, cook

or toast food. It is not designed for industrial or laboratory use.

7) The appliance should not be used by children.

This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,

or lack of experience and knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instruction

concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

If smoke is observed, switch off or unplug the appliance and keep the door closed in order to

stifle any flames.

8) Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged door, cord or plug, if it is not working

properly, or it has been damaged or dropped.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or

similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

9) This appliance should be serviced only by qualified service personnel. Contact nearest

authorised service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.

10) Do not block or cover any openings on the appliance.

11) Do not store this appliance outdoors. Do not use this product near water, for example, near a

kitchen sink, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, or similar locations.

12) Do not immerse cord or plug in water.

13) Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

14) Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.

15) The oven should be cleaned daily, follow the cleaning procedures in section 9 of this manual.

Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface

that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous

situation.

The appliance must not be cleaned with a steam cleaner.

16) To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:

i. do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or other

combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.

ii. remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing a bag in the oven.

iii. if materials inside the oven ignite, keep the oven door closed. Turn the oven off, and

disconnect the supply cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.

iv. do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do no leave paper products, cooking utensils

or food in the cavity when not in use.

v. when heating food in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven due to the

possibility of ignition

17) Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point

without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed

from the microwave combination oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY

HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL

IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

Combination microwave ovens

1) Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in a microwave oven as

they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

2) Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch electrical parts

involving a risk of electric shock.

3) Do not store any materials, other than the manufacturer’s recommended accessories in this

oven when not in use.

4) Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will cause overheating of

the oven.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property

damage, injury and death. Read the installation, operating and maintenance instructions

thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.

WARNING

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO

EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can

result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or

tamper with the safety interlocks.

Do not place any object between the oven front face and the appliance door or allow

soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door

closes properly and that there is no damage to the (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and

latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified

service personnel.

3.4 Summary of hazards

General rules for dealing with hazards and safety precautions

The microwave combination oven is designed to protect the user from all hazards that can reasonably be

avoided by design measures.

The actual purpose of the microwave combination oven, however, means that there are still residual risks; you must

therefore take precautions to avoid them. A safety device can provide you with a certain degree of protection against some

of these hazards. You must ensure, however, that these safety devices are in place and in working order.

The nature of these residual risks and what effect they have are described on the following pages.

Hazard points

The following illustration shows a Merrychef eikon®e2s microwave combination oven:

Excessive microwave energy

The microwave combination oven generates microwave energy. An operation with an open or damaged door or cavity can

result in external and internal burns of body parts following exposure to microwave energy.

Heat generation (1)

The microwave combination oven becomes hot inside the cavity and on the inside of the appliance door. This poses a risk of

burns on hot surfaces inside the microwave combination oven, and also on hot appliance parts, food containers and other

accessories used for cooking.

Hot steam / vapour (2)

When cooking food, the microwave combination oven may generate hot steam and vapour which escapes when the

appliance door is opened, and which is removed through the air vents on the rear of the microwave combination oven when

the appliance door is closed. This poses a risk of scalding from hot steam when the appliance door is opened. Take particular

care when opening the appliance door if the top door edge is below your field of vision.

Hot liquids

Foodstuffs are cooked in the microwave combination oven. These foodstuffs may also be liquid or liquefy during cooking.

This poses a risk of scalding from hot liquids, which may be spilled if not handled properly.

Live components (3)

The microwave combination oven contains live parts. This means a risk from live parts if the cover is not in place.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ __

3 For your safety

Back to contents >

Merrychef eikon®e2s Installation and User Manual

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ __

Contact with cleaning chemicals

The microwave combination oven must be cleaned using special cleaning chemicals. This poses a risk from cleaning

chemicals, some of which can cause skin burns.

Parts moving against each other (4)

For various actions, such as opening/shutting the appliance door or cleaning the appliance door, there is the risk that you

will crush or cut your hand.

Undercooking of food products

Ensure all food is hot before serving to protect your guests from microbiological contamination of foodstuffs.

3.5 Safety devices

Meaning

The microwave combination oven has a number of safety devices to protect the user from hazards. It is absolutely essential

that all safety devices are fitted and in working order when operating the appliance.
