Warning and Safety instructions
Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power
only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first.
The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.
Eggs in their shells will explode if cooked with microwave power,
even after taking them out of the oven.
They can only be cooked in their shells using the steam cooking
function or in an appropriate automatic programme. Hard-boiled
eggs must not be reheated with microwave power either as they too
will explode.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausage,
potatoes and aubergines can burst when heated or cooked.
Pierce or score the skin of these types of food several times to allow
steam to escape.
Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or
pads filled with cherry kernels, wheat grain, lavender or gel, such as
those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated
even after they have been removed from the oven.
To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the oven door if there is
smoke inside the steam oven. Interrupt the programme by switching
the steam oven off and disconnecting the power plug. Do not open
the door until the smoke has dispersed.
Containers and lids with hollow handles or knobs can collect
moisture in the hollow spaces. When the moisture evaporates,
pressure can build up and the item can explode. If the hollow recess
is sufficiently ventilated, the item can be used.
Do not use crockery with hollow knobs or handles when using the
Microwave function.
