Do not heat cushions or pillows fi lled with grains, cherry pits
or gel in the microwave oven. DANGER OF FIRE!!!
•
Warning: When the door or the door seals are damaged,
the microwave oven must not be used until it has been
repaired by a qualifi ed specialist.
•
Warning: Please do not repair the device yourself, but have
it repaired by an authorised specialist. Carrying out main-
tenance or repair work which involves removal of the cover
that protects the surroundings from microwave radiation is
dangerous unless carried out by an expert.
•
Warning: Do not heat liquids in closed containers. Danger
of explosion!
•
Warning: Do not place your microwave in a cupboard.
Please ensure that there is a minimum ventilation gap of
20 cm from cupboards, walls etc. on all sides of the machine.
•
Warning: Children and frail individuals may only use the
oven without supervision if they have been instructed in its
use in such a way that they are able to use the device safely
and understand the dangers of incorrect operation.
•
Warning: If the device is operated using combined mode
children may use the device only when supervised by
adults due to the temperatures that are produced.
•
Note: The microwave oven is not suitable for warming/hea-
ting up living animals.
•
Only suitable tableware should be used such as:
glass, porcelain, ceramics, heat-resistant plastic or special
microwave tableware.
•
If food is being heated or cooked in combustible materials,
such as plastic or paper containers, the microwave oven
should be checked frequently due to the risk of fi re.
•
If smoke is produced, turn the device off and remove the
plug. Keep the door closed in order to suffocate any fl ames.
•
Warning, delay in boiling: During boiling, particularly
during the reheating of liquids (water), it may happen that
the boiling temperature has been reached but the typical
bubbles have not yet started to rise. The liquid does not boil
evenly. When the vessel is removed this so-called delay
in boiling may result in the sudden formation of bubbles
when the vessel is knocked, causing the water to boil over.
There is a serious danger of burns! In order to achieve even
boiling, please place a glass rod or similar item, but nothing
metallic, in the vessel.
•
The contents of babies' bottles and jars of baby food must
be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before
use. There is a danger of burns.
•
Food with a shell or skin, such as eggs, sausages, sealed
jars etc. must not be heated up in the microwave as they
may explode even when heating by the microwaves is
fi nished.
•
Any dirt on the door frame/door seal and neighbouring parts
must be carefully cleaned with a damp cloth.
•
Clean the microwave oven regularly and remove any food
residues from the interior.
