IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR DOMES-
TIC USE ONLY.
THIS APPLIANCE IS INTENDED to be built-
in. Do not use it freestanding.
THIS APPLIANCE IS INTENDED for heating
food and beverages. Drying food
or clothing and heating warm-
ing pads, slippers, sponges, damp
cloths and similar may lead to risk
of injury, ignition or fire.
THE APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED
without food in the microwave oven.
Operation in this manner is likely to
damage the appliance.
IFYOU WISH TO PRACTICE USING the
oven, place a glass of water in-
side. The water will absorb the
microwave energy and the oven
will not be damaged.
DONOT USE THE OVEN CAVITY for stor-
age purposes.
REMOVE WIRE TWIST-TIES from
paper or plastic bags be-
fore placing the bags in the
oven.
DEEPFRYING
DONOT USE YOUR MICROWAVE
oven for deep-fry-
ing because the
temperature of the
oil cannot be controlled.
USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS to prevent
burns when touching containers,
oven parts and pans after cooking.
LIQUIDS
E.G. BEVERAGES OR WATER.
Liquids can overheat
beyond boiling point
without visibly bub-
bling. This could cause hot liquids
to suddenly boil over.
Take the following steps to prevent
this from happening:
1. Avoid using straight-sided
containers with narrow necks.
2. Stir the liquid before plac-
ing the container in the oven
and leave the teaspoon in the
container.
3. After heating, allow to stand
for a short time, stirring again
before carefully removing the
container from the oven.
CAUTION
ALWAYS REFER to a microwave
cookbook for details, especially
if cooking or reheating food that
contains alcohol.
AFTER HEATING BABY FOOD
or liquids in a baby
bottle or in a baby
food jar, always stir
and check the temperature be-
fore serving. This will ensure that
the heat is evenly distributed and
avoid the risk of scalding or burns.
Make sure that the lid and the
teat are removed before heat-
ing.

29
EN
CHECK THAT THE VOLTAGE on the rat-
ing plate corresponds to the
voltage in your home.
DONOT REMOVE THE
MICROWAVE INLET PRO-
TECTION PLATES lo-
cated on the side
of the oven cavi-
ty wall. They pre-
vent grease and food particles
from entering the microwave in-
let channels.
MAKE SURE that the oven cavity is
empty before installing.
MAKE SURE THAT THE APPLIANCE IS NOT
DAMAGED. Check that the oven
door closes firmly against the
door support and that the inter-
nal door seal is not damaged.
Empty the oven and clean the in-
terior with a soft, damp cloth.
DONOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE if it
has a damaged power cord or
plug, if it is not working prop-
erly, or if it has been damaged
or dropped. Do not immerse
the power cord or plug in wa-
ter. Keep the cord away from hot
surfaces. Risk of electrical shock,
fire or other hazards.
IFTHE POWER CORD IS TOO SHORT,
have a qualified electrician
or service technician install
an outlet near the appli-
ance.
THE POWER CORD must be long
enough to connect the appli-
ance to the mains power supply
once it is fitted inside the hous-
ing.
FOR INSTALLATION to comply with
current safety regulations, an all-
pole disconnect switch with a
minimum contact gap of 3 mm
must be used.

ods. It collects the dripping juic-
es and food particles that would
otherwise stain and soil the inte-
rior of the oven.

PLACE THE FOOD DIRECTLY ON THE CRISP PLATE.
Always use the glass turn-
table as support when us-
ing the crisp plate.
DONOT PLACE ANY UTENSILS on the crisp
plate since it will quickly become very
hot and is likely to damage the utensil.
THE CRISP PLATE may be preheated before use
(max. 3 minutes). Always use the Crisp function
when preheating the crisp plate.
GENERAL
THERE ARE a number of accessories available on
the market. Make sure that they are suitable for
microwave use before making any purchases.
MAKE SURE THAT THE UTENSILS YOU USE are micro-
wave-safe and test them briefly in the micro-
wave first before using them
for cooking.
WHEN PLACING FOOD AND/OR ACCESSORIES in the mi-
crowave oven, make sure that they do not
come into contact with the interior of the
oven.
This is especially important with acces-
sories made of metal or which have met-
al parts.
IFACCESSORIES CONTAINING METAL come into con-
tact with the oven interior, sparking may oc-
cur while the oven is in operation and the oven
could be damaged.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE that the turntable is able to
turn freely before starting the oven.
TURNTABLE SUPPORT
USE THE TURNTABLE SUPPORT under the
glass turntable. Never put any other
utensils on the turntable support.
Fit the turntable support in the
oven.
