• Always cook with the appliance door
closed.
• If the appliance is installed behind a
furniture panel (e.g. a door) make sure the
door is never closed when the appliance
operates. Heat and moisture can build up
behind a closed furniture panel and cause
subsequent damage to the appliance, the
housing unit or the floor. Do not close the
furniture panel until the appliance has
cooled down completely after use.
2.4 Care and cleaning
WARNING!
Risk of injury, fire, or damage to the
appliance.
• Before maintenance, deactivate the
appliance and disconnect the mains plug
from the mains socket.
• Make sure the appliance is cold. There is
the risk that the glass panels can break.
• Replace immediately the door glass
panels when they are damaged. Contact
the Authorised Service Centre.
• Be careful when you remove the door from
the appliance. The door is heavy!
• Make sure the cavity and the door are
wiped dry after each use. Steam produced
during the operation of the appliance
condensates on cavity walls and can
cause corrosion.
• Clean regularly the appliance to prevent
the deterioration of the surface material.
• Fat and food remaining in the appliance
can cause fire and electric arcing when
the microwave function operates.
• Clean the appliance with a moist soft
cloth. Use only neutral detergents. Do not
use abrasive products, abrasive cleaning
pads, solvents or metal objects.
• If you use an oven spray, follow the safety
instructions on its packaging.
2.5 Glassware use
Handling your glassware without an
appropriate degree of care could result in
breakage, chipping, cracking or severe
scratching:
• Do not spill cold water or other liquids on
the glassware because a sudden

ENGLISH
temperature drop may cause immediate
breakage of the glass. Broken glass
pieces may be extremely sharp and
difficult to locate.
• Do not place hot glassware on a wet or
cool surface, directly on countertop or
metal surface, or in sink; or handle hot
glassware with wet cloth.
• Do not use or repair any glassware that is
chipped, cracked or severely scratched.
• Do not drop or hit glassware against a
hard object or strike utensils against it.
• Do not heat empty or nearly empty
glassware in microwave, or overheat oil or
butter in microwave (use minimum amount
of cooking time).
Allow hot glassware to cool on a cooling rack,
a potholder or a dry cloth. Make sure that the
glassware is cool enough before washing,
refrigerating or freezing.
Avoid handling hot glassware (including ware
with silicone gripping surfaces) without dry
potholders.
Avoid microwave misuse (i.e. running the
oven without any load or small load).
