leave the appliance unattended when using the microwave, grill, hot-air or combination
functions.
● This microwave oven is intended for the defrosting, heating and cooking of food only. No
responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these
instructions are not complied with.
● This appliance is not intended for use by any person (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lacking experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
● Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
● Caution: The use of the microwave oven by children without supervision must not be
permitted, unless specific and clear instructions have been given prior to use, allowing
the child not only to operate the microwave oven in a safe manner, but also to
understand the dangers resulting from improper use or non-compliance with the
instructions.
● Warning because of the high temperatures that occur during operation in the
combination functions, children must not use the appliance unless they are properly
supervised by an adult.
● Always switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the wall socket:
- before cleaning,
- in case of any malfunction.
● Caution: The exterior surfaces of the appliance may become hot during
operation. There is also a danger of steam being emitted through the ventilation
slots, with a consequent risk of scalding.
● Do not allow the appliance or its power cord to touch hot surfaces or come into contact
with any heat sources. Do not let the power cord hang free, and keep it away from any
hot parts.
● If the unit is not kept properly clean, deterioration in the quality of its surfaces may be
caused, with possible subsequent shortening of its life-cycle, as well as potential risk to
the user's safety.
● This microwave oven is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial
applications. (Class B in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2)
● Caution: Any maintenance or repair work requiring the removal of any microwave
radiation protection cover represents a serious hazard to unqualified persons. This
includes the replacement of the special power cord or an interior light bulb. The unit
must not be opened, except by qualified personnel. If repairs are needed, please send the
appliance to one of our customer service departments. The address can be found in the
appendix to this manual.
The microwave function (Group II in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2)
Electromagnetic energy is generated inside the unit, causing the molecules in the food
(mainly water molecules) to oscillate and subsequently causing the food to become hot.
Food with high water content will therefore heat up faster than relatively dry food. The heat
is generated gradually inside the food. Any utensils, container or plates used are heated up
only indirectly as a result of the food temperature.
