User manual SEVERIN MIKROWELLE MIT GRILL MW 7839

[. . . ] This is important to ensure that no microwave energy is emitted during operation. For the same reason, the entire casing as well as the inside of the oven must be carefully checked. 10 Should the unit show any signs of damage, it must not be used under any circumstances until it has been repaired by a qualified technician. Do not remove the protective film covering the inside of the door, nor the turntable drive unit or the grey-brown protective cover (4) next to the light on the right of the interior. Note: Do not switch the unit on unless the food to be heated or cooked has been placed inside the oven. [. . . ] Always switch the appliance off and remove the plug from the wall socket: - before cleaning, - in case of any malfunction. Caution: The exterior surfaces of the appliance may become hot during operation. There is also a danger of steam being emitted through the ventilation slots: Danger of scalding. Do not allow the appliance or its power cord to touch hot surfaces or to come into contact with any heat sources. Do not let the power cord hang free and keep it away from any hot parts. If the unit is not kept properly clean, deterioration in the quality of its surfaces may be caused, with possible subsequent shortening of its life-cycle, as well as potential risk to the user's safety. This microwave oven is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial applications. (Class B in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2) Caution: Any maintenance or repair work requiring the removal of any microwave radiation protection cover represents a serious hazard to unqualified persons. This includes the replacement of the special power cord or an interior light bulb. If repairs are needed, please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments. The address can be found in the appendix to this manual. The microwave function (Group II in compliance with EN 55011:1998+A1+A2) Electromagnetic energy is generated inside the unit, causing the molecules in the food (mainly water molecules) to oscillate and subsequently causing the food to become hot. Food with high water content will therefore heat up faster than relatively dry food. Any utensils, container or plates used are heated up only indirectly as a result of the food temperature. Always use suitable kitchen utensils Do not place the food directly onto the glass turntable; always use a suitable plate or cooking container. Make sure that the container does not protrude over the rim of the glass turntable. Metal objects are to be avoided since microwaves are reflected from metal surfaces and might not reach the food to be cooked. Any metal in the oven might also cause sparks, resulting in possible damage to the unit. As a general rule, cutlery or metal containers must not be used in the microwave oven. Some food wrappings contain aluminium foil or wires underneath a layer of paper and are therefore also unsuitable for use with microwave appliances. Should the use of aluminium foil be recommend in a recipe, ensure that the food is tightly wrapped in the aluminium foil (avoiding any air blisters). Ensure a minimum distance of 2. 5 cm between the aluminium foil and the interior walls of the oven. Always make sure that the cooking container or plate used does not contain any metal decoration such as a gold rim or colour containing metal particles. [. . . ] - To ensure that any germs in the food are safely destroyed, the food needs to be exposed to high temperatures for a sufficiently long period. 13 - As a basic rule: half the amount double the amount - half the time almost double the time. - Operating sequence - Place the food to be heated into a suitable container. - When food is treated with microwaves, it should be covered to prevent it from drying out. Glass or plastic covers especially designed for use with microwave appliances are available at most kitchenware dealers. The turntable starts to rotate; during operation, the interior light remains switched on. [. . . ]
