Causes of Damage

NOTICES:
Metal ­ e.g. a spoon in a glass ­ must be kept at least
▯
1 inch (25 mm) from the appliance cavity walls and
the inside of the door. Sparks could irreparably
damage the glass on the inside of the door.
Water in the hot appliance interior: Never pour water
▯
into the hot appliance interior. Steam is produced.
Damage to the enamel can arise due to the
temperature change.
Do not leave moist groceries in a closed appliance
▯
for an extended period of time. It can lead to corrosion
inside the appliance.
Fruit juice can leave stains in the appliance. Always
▯
remove fruit juice immediately when safe to touch, and
wipe up first with a damp and then a dry cloth.
Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow the
▯
appliance cavity to cool when it is closed. Even if the
appliance door is only open a little, front panels of
adjacent units could be damaged over time.
Highly soiled door seal: the appliance door will no
▯
longer close properly during operation if the door seal
is highly soiled. Adjoining furniture fronts may be
damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.

Protecting the environment

Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in
an environmentally friendly manner.

Tips for saving energy

Open the appliance door as little as possible while
▯
cooking, baking or roasting.
Use dark, black-painted or enameled baking forms.
▯
These absorb the heat particularly well.
Appliance door as a seat or storage surface: do not
▯
stand, sit or hang on the appliance door. Do not place
any cookware or accessories on the appliance door.
Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance
▯
type, accessories can scratch the door pane when
closing the appliance door. Always slide accessories
fully into the appliance interior.
Do not hold or carry the appliance by the door handle.
▯
The door handle cannot carry the weight of the device
and could break off, or the hinges can be damaged.
Operating the microwave without food in the
▯
appliance cavity may lead to overloading. Never run
the microwave unless there is food in the appliance
cavity. An exception to this rule is a short ovenware
test (see the section "Microwave, suitable ovenware"),
or an AutoChef mode that needs pre-heating.
Always set the microwave power as recommended for
▯
the food. High power settings can overheat foods very
quickly.
The turntable may jump if overloaded.
