CARE AND CLEANING
With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain its looks and remain in
good order. We will explain here how you should care for and clean your appliance
correctly.
Risk of electric shock! Penetrating moisture may cause an electric shock. Do not use
any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
Risk of burns! Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let the
appliance cool down.
Risk of serious damage to health! Microwave energy may escape if the cooking
compartment door or the door seal is damaged. Never use the appliance if the cooking
compartment door or the door seal is damaged. Contact the after-sales service.
NOTE:
Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are caused by the use of
different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections made by
the oven light.
Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be removed very easily. Add
a few drops of lemon juice to a cup of water. Place a spoon into the container as well, to
prevent delayed boiling (ensure the spoon is kept at least a few centimetres from the
edge of the oven to prevent arcing). Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes at maximum
microwave power.
