years.

location
PRECAUTIONS, WHICH MUST BE
FOLLOWED IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE
THE RISK OF MICROWAVE ENERGY
EXPOSURE
1. Do not attempt to use the microwave oven with the
door open, as you will risk exposure to harmful
microwave energy. It is very important that you do
not damage the internal latches and door blocking
mechanism.
2. Do not place foreign objects between the door and
the front of the microwave oven and do not allow
food or cleaning liquid remnants to build up on the
screening grill or on the inside of the door.
3. Do not use the microwave oven if it is damaged or
malfunctioning. It is especially important that the
door always be closed and that the following parts
are not damaged:
• door (bent)
• hinges and latches (broken or weakened)
• screening grill on the inside of the door
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: While the microwave oven is operating in
combination mode (MICROWAVE + GRILL) or being
operated by children, an adult should always be present
to supervise in order to prevent the children from burn
ing themselves.
WARNING: Do not use the microwave oven if the
screening grill on the door is damaged.
WARNING: Repairing a microwave oven always pres
ents danger to any person conducting the repairs if it is
necessary to remove the metal housing that provides
protections from microwave radiation. Do not repair the
microwave oven yourself.
WARNING: Do not forget to open products packaged
in hermetic or vacuum packaging before heating or
cooking. Otherwise, pressure could grow within the
package and cause it to explode, regardless of whether
or not the food was prepared earlier.
WARNING: Children may only use the microwave oven
by themselves after they have been acquainted with
these instructions and understand the dangers associ
ated with operating a microwave oven.
•
Use only microwave safe dishes. Do not use metallic
dishes in the microwave oven as microwaves reflect
ed off the dish might cause sparks and fire.
• In order to avoid overheating and burning food, con
stantly supervise the microwave's operation if you
are heating food in disposable plastic, paper or
other similar containers or if the oven is heating only
a small amount of food.
• If you notice smoke coming from the oven, quickly
turn it off and unplug it from the power outlet.
• When heating any kind of liquid (water, coffee, milk,
etc.), keep in mind that it can suddenly start to boil
and splash on your hands while you are removing it
from the oven. To avoid this, place a heat resistant
plastic spoon or glass mixer in the container and stir
the liquid before removing it from the oven.
• Infant feeding bottles and jars of baby food should
be heating without lids or nipples. Their contents
should be mixed or periodically shaken. Test the
temperature of the food before feeding in order to
prevent burns.
Important information
•
ALWAYS check to make sure the food is not too hot
before giving it to a child. We recommend shaking
the bottle or jar to make sure the heat is distributed
evenly throughout the volume of the container.
• Do not cook an egg in its shell or reheat an egg in its
shell in MICROWAVE mode as they can break from
the internal pressure.
SAFETY MEASURES
1. Install the oven on a flat, stable surface. Choose a
place that will not be accessible to small children.
2. Install the oven so that the distance between the wall
and the back of the oven is no less than 7 8 cm and
the free space above the microwave is no less than
30 cm.
3. The microwave door is equipped with a blocking
system that turns off the power when it is open. Do
not make changes to the operation of the door
blocking mechanism.
4. Do not turn on the microwave while empty; operating
the oven with no food inside can lead to malfunction.
5. Preparing foods with extremely small moisture con
tents can lead to burning and fire.
