Wear oven gloves when placing food in the oven, turning or removing it and when adjusting oven shelves etc.
  • Page 15 Warning and Safety instructions Please be aware that durations when using microwave power are often considerably shorter when cooking, reheating and defrosting than when using functions without microwave power.

  • Page 20 Warning and Safety instructions The oven can suffer damage when using Microwave _ or Combination programmes if it is empty or incorrectly loaded. For this reason please do not use functions with microwave power to pre-heat crockery or to dry herbs. Instead use Fan Plus U for these procedures.
