Warning
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling
■
when a liquid is heated. This means that the
liquid reaches boiling temperature without
the usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only vibrates a
little, the hot liquid may suddenly boil over
and spatter. When heating, always place a
spoon in the container. This will prevent
delayed boiling.

Warning
Risk of injury!
Unsuitable ovenware may crack. Porcelain
■
or ceramic ovenware can have small
perforations in the handles or lids. These
perforations conceal a cavity below. Any
moisture that penetrates this cavity could
cause the ovenware to crack. Only use
microwave-safe ovenware.
If using the appliance in microwave mode

]Causes of damage
Caution!
C a u s e s o f d a m a g e
Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass –
■
must be kept at least 2 cm from the cooking
compartment walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the
■
appliance. They damage the appliance by producing
sparks.
Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
■
appliance without food in the cooking compartment
may lead to overloading. Never switch on the
microwave unless there is food inside. The short
crockery test is the exception to this rule.
~ "Microwave" on page 10
Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an
■
extended period of time, moisture in the cooking
compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the
cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep
moist food in the closed cooking compartment for
extended periods of time. Do not store food in the
cooking compartment.
Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the
■
appliance door will no longer close properly during
operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be
damaged. Always keep the seal clean.

Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave output
■
too high. Use a maximum microwave output of 600
watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The door panels may jump if overloaded.
