3. Safety information

This section contains important safety instructions for using the

device. This device complies with statutory safety regulations.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or

exposure to excessive microwave energy.

Read all instructions before using the appliance. Any other

use is considered improper and can cause personal injury or

property damage.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE

EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE

ENERGY

DANGER!

Risk of injury!

Risk of injury through exposure to microwave radiation.

Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open

since open door operation can result in harmful exposure to

microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with

the safety interlocks.

Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door

or allows soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particular

important that the oven door close properly and that there is

no damage to the: door (bent), hinges and latches (broken

or loosened). Microwave radiation may leak outside if the

appliance is damaged.

10 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except

properly qualified service personnel.

Before using for the first time and after each use, check the

microwave oven for damage.

If you discover any transport damage, contact the Service

Center immediately.

WARNING! It is dangerous for untrained persons to carry out

repair or maintenance work which requires the removal of a

cover which is in place to prevent the escape of microwave

radiation.

Do not under any circumstances make any unauthorized

modifications to the microwave or try to open a component

and/or repair it yourself. Only allow the microwave oven to

be repaired by a professional workshop or contact the Service

Center in order to avoid risks.

Do not remove any of the microwave oven’s internal covers or

the inner coating of the viewing window, as this could lead to

microwave radiation leakage.

Do not use any replacement or accessory parts that have not

been approved or supplied by us.

WARNING!

Risk of injury!

There is a risk of injury from exploding containers.

Do not heat food or liquids in sealed or tightly closed

containers! These can explode in the appliance and cause

injuries on opening. Remove the lids from containers which

close, such as baby bottles.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION!

Risk of injury!

There is a risk of burns.

Food prepared in the microwave oven may heat up unevenly.

Check the temperature of food before eating. When preparing

baby food and bottles, always stir the food or shake the bottle

before checking the temperature in order to avoid burns.

Do not heat eggs in their shells or prepare whole hard-boiled

eggs in the microwave oven as they can explode while

cooking and even after removal from the oven. Eggs may only

be cooked in microwave dishes designed specifically for this

purpose.

Prick or score foods that have a tough skin, such as tomatoes,

sausages, eggplant, etc., before cooking in order to prevent

them from bursting.

Hot steam will escape when you open cooking containers (e.g.

popcorn bags, cans). Always hold the opening away from you

when opening.

Hot steam will escape when you open the door. Do not stand

too close.

The surfaces of the microwave, the accessory parts, and the

dishes will become very hot during the cooking process. Use

oven gloves. Allow parts to cool down before cleaning.

12 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

HEATING OF LIQUIDS

CAUTION!

Risk of injury!

There is a risk of burns.

Liquids such as water, coffee,or tee are able to be overheated

beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible

bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the

microwave oven is not always present.

THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUID SUDDENLY

BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A

SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to person.

Do not overheat the liquid.

Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave

oven for a short time before removing the container

Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into

the container.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short

circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing

an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped

with a cord having outlet that a grounding plug. The plug must be

plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING!

Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding

instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to

whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either:

If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire

extension cord that has a 3-blade grounded plug, and 3-slot

receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The

marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater

than the electrical rating of the appliance,
