• A microwave is only safe if the door closes properly! Never
place an object between the door of the microwave and ensure
that the door and the door seal are always clean.
• Only use the microwave for defrosting, preparation and heating
food and not, for example, for drying clothes or paper. These
can catch fire.
• Self­combustion is possible if you heat small quantities of dry
or powdery products in the microwave (such as when drying
herbs). Switch off and unplug the microwave if something in the
microwave catches fire. Keep the microwave door closed.
• Switch off or unplug the microwave if you see smoke. Keep the
door closed to smother any flames.
• Never switch the microwave on if it is empty as this may
damage the microwave.
• Remove metal strips from plastic bags and use bowls and
dishes that are microwave safe.
• Always first check on the packaging how food should be placed
in the microwave. Liquids or foodstuffs in air­tight packaging
may only be heated after pricking a few holes in the packaging.
This is because the pressure builds up during heating.
• Liquids and other foodstuffs may not be heated in
hermetically­sealed packaging as they can explode.
• Keep an eye on the microwave when heating foodstuffs in
plastic or paper packaging, in connection with the possibility
of combustion.
• Never heat longer than necessary, and remember that food
continues to cook after it is removed from heat.
• Pierce the skin of meat, chicken or fish with a pointed object.
This prevents spitting.
• The microwave should be cleaned regularly and all food
remains should be removed. Remnants of crumbs and moisture
absorb microwaves and increase cooking time. Food remnants
can also damage the interior which may result in hazardous
situations.
• Do not use any abrasive cleaners or metal scrapers to clean
the glass door. This will scratch the surface which can break
the glass.
