This appliance is not intended for use at altitudes
above 2000m.
1.4 To avoid the danger of fire
The microwave oven should not be left
unattended during operation. Power
levels that are too high or cooking times
that are too long may overheat foods
resulting in a fire. The electrical outlet
must be readily accessible so that the
unit can be unplugged easily in an
emergency. The AC power supply must
be 230 V, 50 Hz, with a minimum 10 A
distribution line fuse, or a minimum 10 A
distribution circuit breaker. It is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Do not store or use the oven outdoors.
Do not place flammable materials near
the oven or ventilation openings. Do not
block the ventilation openings. Remove
all metallic seals, wire twists, etc., from
food and food packages. Arcing on
metallic surfaces may cause a fire. Do
not use the microwave oven to heat oil
for deep frying. The temperature cannot
be controlled and the oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, only use special
microwave popcorn makers. Do not
store food or any other items inside the
oven. Check the settings after you start
the oven to ensure the oven is operating
as desired. Do not operate the oven
with the door open or alter the door
safety latches in any way. Do not
operate the oven if there is an object
between the door seals and sealing
surfaces.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should
check with their doctor or the
manufacturer of the pacemaker for
precautions regarding microwave
ovens.
1.5 To avoid the possibility of
electric shock
Under no circumstances should you
remove the outer cabinet. Never spill or
insert any objects into the door lock
openings or ventilation openings. In the
event of a spill, turn off and unplug the
oven immediately and call an authorised
AEG service agent. Do not immerse the
power supply cord or plug in water or
any other liquid. Do not allow the power
supply cord to run over any hot or sharp
surfaces, such as the hot air vent area
at the top rear of the oven.
If the power supply cord of this
appliance is damaged, it must be
replaced with a special cord. The
exchange must be made by an
authorised AEG service agent.
1.6 To avoid the possibility of
explosion and sudden
boiling
Never use sealed containers. Remove
seals and lids before use. Sealed
containers can explode due to a build
up of pressure even after the oven has
been turned off. Take care when
microwaving liquids. Use a wide-
mouthed container to allow bubbles to
escape.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling
liquid and possible scalding:
• Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
• It is advisable to insert a glass rod or
similar utensil into the liquid whilst
reheating.
• Let liquid stand for at least 20
seconds in the oven at the end of
cooking time to prevent delayed
eruptive boiling.
