Important Notes; Important Safety Instructions - SEVERIN Microwave oven & grill Instructions For Use Manual

●
Do not remove the protective film covering the inside of the door, or the grey-brown
protective cover (4) next to the light on the right of the interior.
●
Insert the roller ring and the glass turntable into the unit.
●
Before the microwave oven is used for the first time, let the appliance heat up on the grill
setting (without the microwave function activated) for 10 minutes. This will remove the
smell typically encountered when first switching on a grill. A slight odour may be
emitted; this is quite normal, but ensure there is sufficient ventilation.
Note: Never switch the unit on unless the food to be heated or cooked has been placed
inside the oven. Operating the appliance empty could result in damage to the unit.

Important notes

●
When heating liquids in your microwave oven, the liquid may heat up beyond boiling-
point without visible evidence of bubbling. It is therefore important to exercise extreme
caution when handling any containers, e.g. when removing them from the oven.
The risk of such over-boiling may be reduced by placing a heat-resistant glass rod in the
liquid during the heating process.
●
Eggs in their shells or whole hard-boiled eggs must not be heated up in a microwave
oven, since they may explode even after the microwave heating process has finished.
●
Caution: It is also highly dangerous to heat up liquids or any kind of solid food items in
closed containers in the unit, since there is a real danger of explosion.
●
The content of baby bottles or glass containers with baby food must be thoroughly
stirred or shaken to ensure that the temperature is evenly distributed. To avoid painful
and dangerous scalding, always check the temperature before feeding a child.
●
When heating or cooking food contained or wrapped in combustible materials such as
plastic or paper, there is a danger of those materials igniting. It is also possible that food
will dry out or even ignite if the selected cooking time is excessive. Fat or oil can also
ignite. It is therefore important to constantly supervise the appliance during operation.
Highly inflammable liquids such as concentrated alcohol must of course not be heated
up.
●
Should any smoke be noticed during operation, keep the door closed to inhibit or
smother any flames. Switch the unit off immediately and remove the plug from the wall
socket.
●
To prevent burns, a suitable oven-cloth must always be used when removing food items
from the oven, since the utensils and cooking containers heat up not only during use of
the grill, but also during microwave operation.
●
Special food thermometers (as used in conventional baking ovens) are not suitable for
use with microwave ovens.
