Important safety instructions
When using electrical appliances, observe basic safety precautions. In order to reduce
the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury or exposure to microwave energy, observe the

the oven parts or accessories and even cause skin burns.

they may explode – even after microwave heating has ended.
When the oven is turned on do not touch its accessible parts. Their
●
temperature may be high – risk of burns.
Stir and shake the content of feeding bottles and baby food jars. Check the
●
temperature before consumption in order to avoid burns.
Kitchen utensils may become hot due to heat transmission from the heated food. Use
●
appropriate handles.
Microwave oven maintenance and repair work which involves removing the protective
