    Important safety information

6

■

Using the appliance for anything other than 

its intended purpose is dangerous. 

You are not permitted to use it to dry food 

or clothing or to warm slippers, grain or 

cereal pillows, sponges, damp cleaning 

cloths or the like. 

This is because, for instance, overheated 

slippers, grain or cereal pillows, sponges 

and damp cleaning cloths, etc., may cause 

burns to the skin.

:

Warning – Risk of scalding! 

■

There is a possibility of delayed boiling 

when a liquid is heated. This means that the 

liquid reaches boiling temperature without 

the usual steam bubbles rising to the 

surface. Even if the container only vibrates a 

little, the hot liquid may suddenly boil over 

and spatter. When heating, always place a 

spoon in the container. This will prevent 

delayed boiling.

:

Warning – Risk of injury! 

■

Unsuitable ovenware may crack. Porcelain 

or ceramic ovenware can have small 

perforations in the handles or lids. These 

perforations conceal a cavity below. Any 

moisture that penetrates this cavity could 

cause the ovenware to crack. Only use 

microwave-safe ovenware.

Risk of injury! 

■

If using the appliance in microwave mode 

only, placing cookware and containers 

made of metal or featuring metal detailing 

inside the appliance may cause sparks 

when the appliance is operating. This may 

damage the appliance. Never use metal 

containers when using the appliance in 

microwave mode only.

:

Warning – Risk of electric shock! 

The appliance is a high-voltage appliance. 

Never remove the casing.

:

Warning – Risk of serious damage to 

health!

damaged if it is not cleaned properly.

Causes of damage

Causes of damage

Caution!

■

Creation of sparks: Metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass – 

must be kept at least 2

cm from the cooking 

compartment walls and the inside of the door. 

Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the 

inside of the door.

■

Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the 

appliance. They damage the appliance by producing 

sparks.

■

Operating the microwave without food: Operating the 

appliance without food in the cooking compartment 

may lead to overloading. Never switch on the 

microwave unless there is food inside. The short 

crockery test is the exception to this rule.

■

Moisture in the cooking compartment: Over an 

extended period of time, moisture in the cooking 

compartment may lead to corrosion. Allow the 

cooking compartment to dry after use. Do not keep 

moist food in the closed cooking compartment for 

extended periods of time. Do not store food in the 

cooking compartment.

■

Extremely dirty seal: If the seal is very dirty, the 

appliance door will no longer close properly during 

operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be 

damaged. Always keep the seal clean. Never 

operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or 

missing.
