electrolux safety information
120
Always open containers, popcorn
makers, oven cooking bags, etc., away from
the face and hands to avoid steam burns.
To avoid burns, always test food
temperature and stir before serving
and pay special attention to the
temperature of food and drink given
to babies, children or the elderly.
Temperature of the container is not a
true indication of the temperature of the food
or drink; always check the food temperature.
Always stand back from the oven door
when opening to avoid burns from escaping
steam and heat.
Slice stuffed baked foods after heating to
release steam and avoid burns.
Keep children away from the door to
prevent them burning themselves.
To avoid misuse by children
Warning: Only allow children to use
the oven without supervision when
adequate instructions have been given
so that the child is able to use the oven
in a safe way and understands the
hazards of improper use.
This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning 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.
Do not lean or swing on the oven door.
Do not play with the oven or use it as a toy.
Children should be taught all important
safety instructions: use of pot holders,
careful removal of food coverings; paying
special attention to packaging (e.g. self-
heating materials) designed to make food
crisp, as they may be extra hot.
Other warnings
Never modify the oven in any way.
This oven is for home food preparation
only and may only be used for cooking
food. It is not suitable for commercial or
laboratory use.
To promote trouble-free use of
your oven and avoid damage
Never operate the oven when it is
empty.
When using a browning dish or self-
heating material, always place a heat-
resistant insulator such as a porcelain plate
under it to prevent damage to the turntable
and turntable support due to heat stress.
The preheating time specified in the dish's
instructions must not be exceeded.
Do not use metal utensils, which reflect
microwaves and may cause electrical
arcing. Do not put cans in the oven.
Only use the turntable and the turntable
support designed for this oven. Do not
operate the oven without the turntable.
To prevent the turntable from breaking:
a) Before cleaning the turntable with water,
leave the turntable to cool.
b) Do not put hot foods or hot utensils on
a cold turntable.
c) Do not put cold foods or cold utensils
on a hot turntable.
Do not place anything on the outer
cabinet during operation.
Important:
If you are unsure how to connect your
oven, please consult an authorised, qualified
electrician.
Neither the manufacturer nor the dealer
can accept any liability for damage to the
oven or personal injury resulting from failure
to observe the correct electrical connection
procedure.
Water vapour or drops may occasionally
form on the oven walls or around the door
seals and sealing surfaces. This is a normal
occurrence and is not an indication of
microwave leakage or a malfunction.
