safety supervises or explains the use of
the appliance to them.
• Never heat up or cook eggs in their
shells, boiled or baked eggs in the
microwave. They could explode and
cause serious burns or permanently
damage the appliance.
• When heating up liquids, boiling
temperature may be reached without
the typical bubbles coming up to the
surface. To avoid the liquid boiling over
and risk of burns, wait 20 seconds
before taking the container out of the
microwave or putting any food into
the microwave, to prevent any sudden
splashes.
• Check the microwave frequently if
you are cooking or heating up food in
disposable containers made of plastic,
paper or any other flammable material,
as there is a risk of fire.
• If you notice any smoke, do not open the
microwave door. Switch off the appliance
and unplug it from the mains.
• Donotusetheovenwiththedooropen.
If the door or the seals are damaged, the
oven must not be used until it has been
repaired by a Certified Technical Service.
4. BASIC PRINCIPLES
• In most cases it is recommendable to cover
the food: it will be tastier and this also helps
keep the microwave clean. However, before
cooking any food or heating up any liquids
in a bottle or sealed container, remove the
cover or lid to avoid any risk of the food
exploding.
• For small amounts of food (a single
sausage, a croissant, etc.), stand a glass of
water beside the food.
• Over-long cooking times may dry up or char
the food. To prevent this from happening,
never use the same cooking times as for a
traditional oven.
• Place the thickest parts of the food towards
the outside of the dish.
• Always check the cooking time. Use the
lowest time indicated, adding more time if
necessary. Overcooked food may give off
smoke or catch fire.
5. RADIO WAVE INTERFERENCE
Use of the microwave oven may cause
interference with your radio, TV or
similar equipment. This can be reduced
or eliminated by taking the following
measures:
1. Clean the microwave door and the surface
of the seal.
2. Reposition the radio or TV receiving
antenna.
3. Change the location of the microwave or
the radio/TV receiver.
4. Move the microwave away from the
receiver.
5. Connect the microwave and the receiver in
different sockets.
6. UTENSILS GUIDE
• Always make sure that the utensils used
are suitable for microwave use.
• Microwave-permeable material is ideal, as
this allows the energy to flow through the
container to heat up the food.
• Do not use metal utensils or dishes with
metallic patterns on them.
• Do not use products made of recycled
paper, as they could contain small metal
fragments that could cause sparks and/or
fire.
• Round or oval plates are recommended
rather than square or rectangular ones,
as the food at the corners could be
overcooked.
• Thin strips of tin foil can be used to prevent
overcooking of exposed areas. However,
be careful not to use too much tin foil and
make sure it is at a minimum distance
of 2.5 cm from the inside walls of the
microwave.
