C aution!
C a u s e s o f d a m a g e
Heavily soiled 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.
Operating the microwave without food: Operating
■
the appliance without food in the cooking
compartment may lead to overloading. Never switch
on the appliance unless there is food in the cooking
compartment.The only exception to this rule is when
performing a short cookware test.~ "Cookware
test" on page 27
Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave
■
power too high. Use a power setting no higher than
600 watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass
plate. The disc may jump if overloaded.
Liquid that has boiled over must not be allowed to
■
run through the turntable drive into the interior of the
appliance. Monitor the cooking process. Choose a
shorter cooking time initially, and increase the
cooking time as required.
Never use the microwave oven without the turntable.
■
Creation of sparks: Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass
■
must be kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and
the inside of the door. Sparks could 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.
Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave
■
the cooking compartment to cool with the door
closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door.
Even if the door is only slightly ajar, the fronts of
adjacent units may be damaged over time.
Condensation in the cooking compartment:
■
Condensation may appear on the door window,
interior walls and floor. This is normal and does not
adversely affect microwave operation. To prevent
corrosion, wipe off the condensation every time you
cook.
