Metallic containers for food and beverages are not allowed during microwave cooking.

Do not leave the oven unattended when using disposable plastic, paper or other combustible food containers.

The microwave oven is intended for heating food and beverages. Drying of food or clothing and heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp cloth and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition or fire.

If food being heated begins to smoke, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Turn off and unplug the oven and wait until the food has stopped smoking. Opening the door while food is smoking may cause a fire.

Microwave heating of beverages can result in delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care has to be taken when handling the container.

The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.

Do not cook eggs in their shells and whole hard boiled eggs should not be heated in microwave ovens since they may explode even after microwave cooking has ended.

To remove all trace of dirt, regularly clean both sides of the door, the door seals and sealing surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.

Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

For cleaning, wipe any splatters or spills with a soft damp cloth or sponge after each use while the oven is still warm.

For heavier spills, use a mild soap and wipe several times with a damp cloth until all residues are removed.

Do not remove the waveguide cover.

Make sure that mild soap or water does not penetrate the small vents in the walls which may cause damage to the oven.

Do not use spray type cleaners on the oven interior.

Heat up your oven regularly by using the grill. Remaining food or fat splashed can cause smoke or a bad smell.

Clean the waveguide cover, the oven cavity, the turntable and turntable support after use. These must be dry and free from grease. Built-up grease may overheat and begin to smoke or catch fire.

The outside of your oven can be cleaned easily with mild soap and water. Make sure the soap is wiped off with a moist cloth, and dry the exterior with a soft towel.

Open the door before cleaning to de-activate the control panel.

Care should be taken when cleaning the control panel. Using a cloth dampened with water only, gently wipe the panel until it becomes clean.

Avoid using excessive amounts of water.

Do not use any sort of chemical or abrasive cleaner.

Remove the turntable and turntable support from the oven.

Wash the turntable and turntable support in mild soapy water. Dry with a soft cloth.

Both the turntable and the turntable support are dishwasher safe.

This should be washed in a mild washing up liquid solution and dried.

The rack is dishwasher safe.

Clean the oven at regular intervals and remove any food deposits. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to a deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.

Care should be taken not to displace the turntable when removing containers from the appliance.

A steam cleaner should not be used.

The microwave oven is intended to be used built-in.

The appliance and its accessible parts become hot during use. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements.

Keep children away from the door and accessible parts that may become hot when the grill is in use. Children should be kept away to prevent them burning themselves.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, steam cleaners, abrasive, harsh cleaners, any that contain sodium hydroxide or scouring pads on any part of your microwave oven.
