General safety information
Do not operate the appliance if it is damaged.
Caution: the appliance heats up during operation.
Keep children away. Only operate the appliance
under supervision.
When connecting electrical appliances in the
proximity of the oven, make sure that connecting
cables do not come into contact with hot cooking
surfaces.
Caution! You will subject yourself to an accident
risk if you close the door improperly. You might jam
and crush your fingers and hands.
Caution: risk of burns. The grill heating element
gets very hot during operation; observe appropriate
caution when removing food.
Caution: fire risk! Never place combustible items
in the cooking compartment, as they could ignite
when switched on unintentionally.
The microwave must only be switched on when
foodstuffs (or beverages) are located in the cooking
compartment. Switching on the empty appliance
could overload the appliance. An exception to this
rule is for the short-term testing of cookware (see
“Information about cookware”).
The appliance door must always shut tight. For this
reason, any food residue or cooking remains must
be removed from the door seal area before use.
In the event that the appliance door or door seal is
damaged or broken (glass panel), the appliance
must not be used until it has been repaired by a
qualified customer service technician.
Caution: Children must only be permitted to
operate the appliance without supervision if
comprehensive instructions have been given with
regard to safe operation and the dangers of
improper use.
Protect your microwave appliance from excess heat
and dampness. Condensation will often accumulate
on the door window, inner walls and bottom. This
process is quite normal, and is not detrimental to
appliance functions. However, to prevent the build-
up of excess water, simply wipe the condensation
from these surfaces after use.
To avoid jeopardising the electrical safety of the
appliance, do not use high-pressure or steam jet
cleaning devices.
Isolate the appliance from the mains during every
maintenance operation. To do this, remove the
mains plug or switch off the corresponding fuse.
Repairs must be carried out by authorised
specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety.
The cooking compartment lamp may be replaced
by a qualified customer service technician only.
Do not open the appliance housing. This appliance
operates at high voltages.
As the user, you are responsible for maintenance
and proper use in the household. No warranty
claims can be lodged for any damage resulting
from failure to observe these instructions.
Subject to technical change without notice.
