WARNING!
Risk of damage to the appliance.
• To prevent damage or discoloration to the enamel:
– do not put aluminium foil directly on the bottom of cavity of the appliance.
– do not put water directly into the hot appliance.
– do not keep moist dishes and food in the appliance after you finish the cooking.
– be careful when you remove or install the accessories.
• Discoloration of the enamel or stainless steel has no effect on the performance of the
appliance.
• Use a deep pan for moist cakes. Fruit juices cause stains that can be permanent.
• 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 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).
