• Microwave radiation is dangerous! Maintenance and repairs requiring the re-
moval of access covers, which are intended for protection against contact with
microwave radiation, are to be carried out by trained specialists only.
• Before consumption, check the temperature, so as to avoid a potentially life-thre-
atening scalding for babies.
Cooking utensils may become hot from the heat emitted by the food, so that
you may require oven gloves to touch them. In this case, a check should also
be made to ensure that the cooking utensils are suitable for use with the micro-
wave oven.
Attention! Hot surfaces!
