• The appliance does not contain any parts that you can repair yourself. Repair work must only be carried out through SEVERIN customer service department.

Electromagnetic waves are generated in the appliance, which excite the molecules in the food (primarily water molecules) to strong vibrations. Heat arises due to these vibrations. Therefore, foods with a high liquid content heat faster than relatively dry foods. Cookware is heated only indirectly by the foods.

This product is an ISM appliance of Group 2, Class B. Group 2 includes all ISM appliances (industrial, scientific, medical) in which radio frequency energy arises and/or is used in the form of electromagnetic radiation to process material, as well as spark erosion devices. Class B are appliances for household use or appliances on power networks that feed residential buildings.
