Do not use the microwave function
of the appliance if
- the door is warped.
- the door hinges are loose.
- holes or cracks are visible in the cas-
ing, the door, the door seal or the oven
interior walls.
Operating the appliance with this type
of damage will result in microwave leak-
age, and present a hazard to the user.
Never open the casing of the ap-
pliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts
is highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults or electric
shock.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
the rating on the data plate corre-
sponds to the voltage and frequency of
the household supply. It is essential
that these data correspond as other-
wise damage will occur to the ap-
pliance. If in doubt consult a suitably
qualified electrician.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the ap-
pliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).
