• Do not turn the microwave oven on when the door is open, as an excess of damaging electromagnetic waves may be emitted by the device. Never change the safety locks! WARNING! Danger of burns! When in use, certain elements of the device are very hot. To avoid burns, do not touch the device! •...
• Do not use metallic pots, pans or covers. Metal may lead to sparks in the cooking chamber. Use only dishes resistant to high temperatures, designed for use in microwave ovens (see sec. 5.4). Risk of fire! • During the heating of liquids in the microwave oven it is possible that the liquid may reach boiling temperature without externally visible bubbling.
5.3 Guidelines for cooking with the microwave oven Instead of traditional heat sources, a microwave oven applies an electron lamp which emits electromagnetic waves. These waves, like radio waves, are invisible but their effects can be observed. Such waves can pass through materials such as glass, porcelain, artificial materials and paper.
6. Wide, flat containers are best suited to use in the microwave oven as compared to narrow and tall ones. Food products cook evenly in flat dishes. 7. To avoid food from baking onto the edge of dishes, you may cover the edges with thin strips of aluminum foil.

DEFROSTING FROZEN FOOD 1. Due to the varying thickness and shape of foods, it is not advisable to completely defrost food in the microwave oven, as this may result in irregular defrosting. There may also be dripping and some spots may be cooked while others are still frozen. When using frozen food, you should therefore only defrost the food to 70% with the microwave oven.
