glass scraper, sharp or abrasive cleaning

Unsuitable ovenware may crack. Porcelain
Risk of injury!
■
or ceramic ovenware can have small
perforations in the handles or lids. These
perforations conceal a cavity below. Any
moisture that penetrates this cavity could
cause the ovenware to crack. Only use
microwave-safe ovenware.
Causes of damage
Caution!
Creation of sparks: Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be
■
kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the
door. Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the
inside of the door.
Baking tray, greaseproof paper, aluminium foil or ovenware
■
on the cooking compartment floor: Do not place baking trays
or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor. Do not line
the cooking compartment floor with aluminium foil. This will
cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will
no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the appliance.
■
They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
Water in the hot cooking compartment: Never pour water into
■
the hot cooking compartment. This will cause steam. The
temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
Moist food: Do not store moist food in the closed cooking
■
compartment for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance to store food. This can lead to
corrosion.
Fruit juice: When cooking very moist fruit flans, do not fill the
■
universal pan too generously. Fruit juice which runs out of the
universal pan leaves behind stains which cannot be removed.
Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave the
■
cooking compartment to cool with the door closed. Do not
trap anything in the appliance door. Even if the door is only
slightly ajar, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged
over time.
Condensation in the cooking compartment: Condensation
■
may appear on the door window, interior walls and floor. This
is normal and does not adversely affect microwave operation.
To prevent corrosion, wipe off the condensation every time
you cook.
Heavily soiled seal: If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door
■
will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of
adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal
clean.
Using the appliance door for standing on or placing objects
■
on: Do not stand or place anything on the open appliance
door. Do not place ovenware or accessories on the appliance
door.
Transporting the appliance: Do not carry or hold the
■
appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot
support the weight of the appliance and could break.
Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
■
appliance without food in the cooking compartment may lead
to overloading. Never switch on the appliance unless there is
food in the cooking compartment. An exception to this rule is
a short crockery test (see the section "Microwave, suitable
crockery").
6
Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave power too
■
high. Use a power setting no higher than 600 watts. Always
place the popcorn bag on a glass plate. The disc may jump if
overloaded.
