If the appliance is ever sold or transferred to another person, ensure that the new owner receives this user guide. Please read these guidelines before installing and using your appliance. They were written for your safety and the safety of others. s a f e t y r e c o m m e n d a t i o n s Your appliance is designed for standard household use for cooking, reheating and defrosting foods. The manufacturer declines any responsibility in the case of inappropriate use of the appliance. This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with impaired physical, sensorial or mental abilities, or persons lacking in knowledge or experience, unless they receive prior supervision or instructions on using the appliance from a person responsible for their safety. Please make sure children do not play with the appliance. WARNING: Only allow children to use the oven without supervision, if adequate instructions have been given, so that the child is able to use the oven safely and understands the dangers of incorrect use. WARNING: Liquids and other foods should not be heated in sealed containers because they might explode. Use only utensils suitable for use in microwave ovens. When heating food items in plastic or paper containers, keep an eye on the oven contents, since there is a risk of ignition. WARNING: If the door or door seal is damaged, the oven should not be used until it has been repaired by a qualified person. WARNING: It is dangerous for anyone other than a qualified person to perform maintenance or repairs that require the removal of the cover providing protection against exposure to microwave energy. WARNING: The accessible parts of the appliance may become hot during use. Be careful not to touch the heating elements inside the oven. It is recommended that you keep young children at a E N safe distance. If the appliance is being used in combination mode, it is recommended that children only use the oven under adult supervision due to the temperatures involved. If smoke appears, stop or unplug the oven and leave the door closed to smother any flames that might appear. Heating eggs in their shells or whole hardboiled eggs in a microwave oven is not recommended, as they may explode, even after cooking has ended. Heating beverages in a microwave oven can cause sudden and/or delayed splashing of boiling liquid, so precautions must be taken when handling containers. The contents of baby bottles and baby food jars should be shaken or stirred and their temperature checked before consumption, to avoid burns. Never heat a baby bottle with the teat on (risk of explosion). The use of metal cookware, forks, spoons, knives or metal staples or fasteners on defrosting bags is not recommended. Always use oven mitts to remove dishes from the oven. Some dishes absorb the heat from foods and can therefore become very hot. If cooking small quantities of food (a sausage, croissant, etc.), place a glass of water next to the food. Excessive cooking times may dry out foods and burn them. To prevent this happening, never use the same times as recommended for cooking in a traditional oven. To avoid damaging your appliance, never operate it while empty or without the turntable. Do not leave any accessories in your oven when it is switched off. 3
