3.1 General
Follow these instructions when using the appliance.
NOTICE:
Metal, such as a spoon in a glass, must be kept at least 1"
(25 mm) from the appliance cavity walls and the inside of
the door.
Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the
▶
inside of the door.
When the appliance cavity is hot, any water inside it will
create steam. The change in temperature may cause
damage.
Never pour water into the appliance cavity when it is still
▶
hot.
Never place cookware containing water on the
▶
appliance cavity bottom.
The prolonged presence of moisture in the appliance
cavity leads to corrosion.
Always wipe away condensation after cooking.
▶
Do not keep moist food in the appliance cavity for a long
▶
time with the door closed.
Do not store food in the appliance cavity.
▶
Fruit juice can leave stains in the appliance cavity.
Always remove fruit juice immediately when safe to
▶
touch, and wipe up first with a damp and then a dry
cloth.
Leaving the appliance to cool down with the door open will
damage the front of neighboring kitchen units over time.
Always allow the appliance cavity to cool down with the
▶
door closed after cooking at high temperatures. Only
leave the appliance cavity to dry with the door open if a
lot of moisture was produced during operation.
If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will not close
properly when the appliance is in operation. This may
damage the front of adjacent kitchen units.
Keep the seal clean at all times.
▶
Never operate the appliance if the seal is damaged or
▶
missing.
Sitting or placing objects on the appliance door may
damage it.
Do not place or hang objects on the appliance door.
▶
Do not place cookware or accessories on the appliance
▶
door.
With certain models, accessories may scratch the door
glass when closing the appliance door.
Always push accessories fully into the appliance cavity.
▶
Carrying the appliance by the door handle could break it.
The door handle cannot support the weight of the
appliance.
Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle.
▶
Operating the microwave without food in the appliance
cavity may lead to overloading.
Never run the microwave unless there is food in the
▶
appliance cavity. An exception to this rule is a short
ovenware test.
