Looking after your appliance
Take the plug out of the socket or set the
switch in the meter cupboard to zero before
you start cleaning the microwave oven.
Clean the inside and the outside of the oven
on a regular basis using washing up liquid and
dry the oven thoroughly with a soft cloth.
Also clean the oven accessories on a regular
basis using washing up liquid and a brush.
Dry the oven accessories thoroughly with a
soft cloth.
Check the seal of the door regularly for
damage.
If there is any damage the oven may not be
used until the damage has been repaired.
Troubleshooting
When the cooking results are not as you
expected, sparking occurs in the oven, the
oven does not start etc; try to locate the
problem yourself before calling a service
technician. Use the checklist below to see if
you did something wrong.
– Is the appliance plugged in?
– Is the door closed properly?
– Are the power level, cooking time and
cooking temperature set right?
– Is there anything in the oven that does not
belong there?
– Did you use the right kitchen equipment/
containers?
– Are the roller guide and the turntable placed
in the oven?
– Are the ventilation outlets blocked?
– Was the food defrosted sufficiently?
– Has the food been turned or stirred during
cooking?
