1.4 To avoid the danger of fire
The microwave oven should not be
left unattended during operation.
Power levels that are too high or
cooking times that are too long may
overheat foods resulting in a fire. The
electrical outlet must be readily
accessible so that the unit can be
unplugged easily in an emergency. It
is recommended that a separate
circuit serving only this appliance be
provided. Do not store or use the
oven outdoors.
Do not place flammable materials
near the oven or ventilation openings.
Do not block the ventilation
openings. Remove all metallic seals,
wire twists, etc., from food and food
packages. Arcing on metallic surfaces
may cause a fire. Do not use the
microwave oven to heat oil for deep
frying. The temperature cannot be
controlled and the oil may catch fire.
To make popcorn, only use special
microwave popcorn makers. Do not
store food or any other items inside
the oven. Check the settings after you
start the oven to ensure the oven is
operating as desired. Do not operate
the oven with the door open or alter
the door safety latches in any way. Do
not operate the oven if there is an
object between the door seals and
sealing surfaces.
Individuals with PACEMAKERS should
check with their doctor or the
manufacturer of the pacemaker for
precautions regarding microwave
ovens.
1.5 To avoid the possibility of
electric shock
Under no circumstances should you
remove the outer cabinet. Never spill or
insert any objects into the door lock
openings or ventilation openings. In the
event of a spill, turn off and unplug the
oven immediately and call an authorised
AEG service agent. Do not immerse the
power supply cord or plug in water or
any other liquid. Do not allow the power
supply cord to run over any hot or sharp
surfaces, such as the hot air vent area at
the top rear of the oven.
If the power supply cord of this
appliance is damaged, it must be
replaced with a special cord. The
exchange must be made by an
authorised AEG service agent.
1.6 To avoid the possibility of
explosion and sudden
boiling
Never use sealed containers. Remove
seals and lids before use. Sealed
containers can explode due to a build
up of pressure even after the oven has
been turned off. Take care when
microwaving liquids. Use a wide-
mouthed container to allow bubbles to
escape.
To prevent sudden eruption of boiling
liquid and possible scalding:
• Stir liquid prior to heating/reheating.
• It is advisable to insert a glass rod or
similar utensil into the liquid whilst
reheating.
• Let liquid stand for at least 20
seconds in the oven at the end of
