9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Cooking Safety
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury or property damage, observe the following:
Do not leave oven unattended while in use. Do not store flammable material
next to or in the
oven. When flaming foods under the microwave, always
turn the fan on. Do not operate the oven while empty. This could
damage the oven and result in a risk of fire. Do not store or use corrosive
chemicals, vapors,
flammables or nonfood products in or near this appliance. It is specifically
designed for use when heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals
in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and could result in injury.
Do not dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. Do not use
newspapers or paper bags for cooking. Fire could result. Do not use recycled
paper products unless labeled safe for microwave use. They may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and result in fires when used. Always use
potholders when removing items from the oven. The cooking container and the
glass tray can be hot even if the oven is cool. Whenever possible, do not
operate the ventilation system during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach
through fire to turn it off. Do not mount over sink. Do not store anything
directly on top of the appliance surface when the appliance is in operation.
Oversized food or oversized metal utensils should not be inserted in a
microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock. Do not
clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and touch
electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock. Do not store any
materials, other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories, in this oven
when not in use. Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal
foil. This will cause overheating of the oven.
In Case of Fire
If materials inside an oven should ignite: 1. Keep door closed 2. Turn
appliance off 3. Unplug the appliance or shut off at fuse or circuit
breaker
Liquids
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea could be overheated. They can be heated
beyond the boiling point without appearing to boil. For example, visible
bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is
not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
When heating liquids, always place a glass rod/spoon in the container. This
will prevent delayed boiling. CAUTION Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be
kept at least 1 in (25 mm) from the oven walls and the inside of the door.
Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door. Take
ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat
up more quickly and evenly in microwaveable ovenware. The different components
of the meal may not require the same amount of time to heat up. Always cover
the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for your container, use a plate
or special microwave foil. Stir or turn the food several times during cooking.
Check the temperature. After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2
to 5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature. Always use an oven
cloth or oven gloves when removing plates from the oven.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Cooking Items
Eggs: Do not cook or reheat whole eggs, with or without shell. Steam buildup
in whole eggs may cause them to explode, and possibly damage the oven or cause
injury. Reheating sliced hard-boiled eggs and cooking scrambled eggs is safe.
Popcorn: Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for microwave use,
or pop it in a microwave oven corn popper. Follow popcorn manufacturers’
directions and use a brand suitable for the wattage of your oven. Do not
continue to heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do
not leave oven unattended.
CAUTION
When using pre-packaged microwave popcorn, check package weight before using
the popcorn function. Set the oven for the weight of the popcorn package. If
these instructions are not followed, popcorn may not pop adequately or may
ignite and cause fire.
Foods with nonporous skins: Potatoes, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, whole
squash and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins. These types of
foods must be pierced before cooking to prevent them from exploding. Baby food
/ Baby formula: Do not heat baby bottles or food in microwave oven. The glass
jar or the surface of food may appear warm while the interior can burn the
infant’s mouth and esophagus. Deep fat frying: Do not deep fat fry in oven.
Oil can be heated beyond ideal temperatures very quickly in a microwave oven.
Temperatures can climb high enough for the cooking oils to reach their
respective flash points and burst into flames. The heated oil may bubble and
spatter causing possible damage to the oven and perhaps result in burns.
Additionally, microwavesafe utensils may not be able to withstand the
temperature of the hot oil, and could result in the utensil shattering, if it
contains a slight imperfection, scratch or chip. Home Canning / Drying foods /
Small quantities of foods: Do not use microwave oven for home canning or
heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build up and the jar may explode. In
addition, the oven cannot maintain the food at the proper canning temperature.
Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume. Small quantities
of food or foods with low moisture content can dry out, burn or catch on fire.
Do not dry meats, herbs, fruits or vegetables in your oven. Proper cooking
depends on time set and weight of food. If you use a smaller portion than
recommended and cook at the time for the recommended portion, fire could
result. Browning dishes: Microwave browning dishes or grills are designed for
microwave cooking only. Preheating times vary depending on the size of the
browning dish and food being cooked. Always follow instructions provided by
the browning dish or grill manufacturer. Do
not preheat browning dishes more than 6 minutes.
Oven roasting bags: If an oven bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare
according to package directions. Do not use wire twistties to close bags,
instead use nylon ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open end of the
bag. Make six ½” (12.7 mm) slits by closure. Place oven cooking bag in a dish
slightly larger than the food being cooked.
Cooking Utensils
See also Microwave Utensil Guide. Cooking utensils, the ceramic tray and racks
get hot during microwaving. Always use potholders when removing items from the
oven. Allow the ceramic tray and the metal racks (if used) to cool before
handling. Do not use metal utensils, or dishes with metallic trim in the oven.
When using aluminum foil in the oven, allow at least 1″ (25.4 mm) of space
between foil and interior oven walls or door. The ceramic tray and the metal
racks (if used) will get hot during cooking. The cooking container and the
ceramic tray can be hot even if the oven is cool. Never use paper, plastic, or
other combustible materials that are not intended for cooking. When cooking
with paper, plastic, or other combustible materials, follow manufacturer’s
recommendations on product use. Do not use paper towels which contain nylon or
synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could melt and cause paper to ignite. Do
not heat sealed containers or plastic bags in oven. Food or liquid could
expand quickly and cause container or bag to break. Pierce or open container
or bag before cooking.
Metal Tray Turntable
Do not operate the oven without the metal tray turntable in place. Verify that
the metal tray turntable is properly positioned and turning when the oven is
in use. Improper cooking or damage to the oven could result. Only use the
metal tray turntable designed for this oven. Do not substitute any other tray.
Always replace the metal tray in its proper position.
Thermometers
Do not use regular cooking thermometers in oven. Most cooking thermometers
contain mercury and may cause electrical arc, malfunction, or damage to the
oven.

Causes of damage
NOTICES: Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least
1″ (25 mm) from the oven walls and the inside of the door. Sparks could
irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door. Water in the hot oven
interior: Never pour water into the hot oven interior. Steam is produced.
Damage to the enamel can arise due to the temperature change. Do not leave
moist groceries in a closed oven for an extended period of time. It can lead
to corrosion inside the oven. Fruit juice can leave stains in the oven. Always
remove fruit juice immediately when safe to touch, and wipe up first with a
damp and then a dry cloth. Cooling with the appliance door open: only allow
the oven cavity to cool when it is closed. Even if the appliance door is only
open a little, front panels of adjacent units could be damaged over time.
Highly soiled door seal: the appliance door will no longer close properly
during operation if the door seal is highly soiled. Adjoining furniture fronts
may be damaged. Always keep the door seal clean.
Appliance door as a seat or storage surface: do not stand, sit or hang on the
appliance door. Do not place any cookware or accessories on the appliance
door.
Inserting accessories: depending on the appliance type, accessories can
scratch the door pane when closing the appliance door. Always slide
accessories fully into the oven interior.
Do not hold or carry the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot
carry the weight of the device and could break off, or the hinges can be
damaged.
Operating the microwave without food in the oven cavity may lead to
overloading. Never run the microwave unless there is food in the oven cavity.
An exception to this rule is a short ovenware test, see section ~ “Microwave
utensil guide”, or a Speed Chef mode that needs pre-heating.
Always set the microwave power as recommended for the food. High power
settings can overheat foods very quickly.
The turntable may jump if overloaded.
Protecting the environment
Unpack the appliance and dispose of the packaging in an environmentally
friendly manner.
Tips for saving energy
Open the appliance door as little as possible while cooking, baking or
roasting.
Use dark, black-painted or enameled baking forms. These absorb the heat
particularly well.
It is best to bake several cakes in succession. The oven is still warm. This
shortens the baking time for the second cake. You can also slide in two loaf
tins next to each other.

Microwave
Microwave utensil guide
Suitable ovenware Heat-resistant glass, glass-ceramic:
Utility dishes, loaf dishes, pie plates, cake plates, liquid measuring cups,
casseroles and bowls without metallic trim (e.g. Pyrex®, Anchor HockingTM,
Corning Ware®, etc.). China: Bowls, cups, serving plates and platters without
metallic trim. Plastic films and wraps: Plastic wrap (as a cover) – lay the
plastic wrap loosely over the dish and press it to the sides. Vent plastic
wrap by turning back one edge slightly to allow excess steam to escape. The
dish should be deep enough so that the plastic wrap will not touch the food.
Microwave-safe plastics: Microwave-safe plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid
freezer containers and plastic bags for short cooking times. Use these with
care because the plastic may soften from the heat of the food. Paper products:
Paper towels, wax paper, parchment paper, paper napkins and paper plates with
no metallic trim or design. Look for the manufacturers label for any special
instructions for use in the microwave oven.
Unsuitable ovenware Metal utensils and cookware:
Metal shields the food from microwave energy and produces uneven cooking.
Also, avoid metal skewers, thermometers or foil trays. Metal utensils can
cause arcing, which can damage your microwave oven. Metal decoration: Bowls,
cups, serving plates and platters with metallic trim. Aluminum foil: Avoid
large sheets of aluminum foil because they hinder cooking and may cause
harmful arcing. Use small pieces of foil to shield poultry legs and wings.
Keep ALL aluminum foil at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the side walls of the
oven cavity and door of the microwave. Wood: Wooden bowls and boards will dry
out and may split or crack when you use them in the microwave oven. Baskets
made of wood will react in the same way. Tightly covered cookware: Be sure to
leave openings for steam to escape from covered cookware. Pierce plastic
pouches of vegetables or other food items before cooking. Tightly closed
pouches may explode.
14
Brown paper: Avoid using brown paper bags. They absorb heat and can burn.
Flawed or chipped cooking utensils: Any utensil that is cracked, flawed or
chipped may break in the oven.
Metal twist ties: Remove metal twist ties from plastic or paper bags. They
become hot and could cause a fire.
Ovenware test Do not turn on the microwave unless there is food inside. The
following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule. Perform the
following test if you are unsure whether your ovenware is suitable for use in
the microwave:
1. Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to 1 minute.
2. Check the temperature occasionally during that time. The ovenware should
still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or if sparks are generated.
Microwave power levels
You can select from 10 different microwave power levels. If you do not set a
power level, the microwave will automatically operate at the highest power
level 100%. The table below provides suggested power levels for various types

Suggestions for best results
To help you achieve the best possible results from your microwave oven, read
the following suggestions below:
Storage temperature Foods taken from the freezer or refrigerator take longer
to cook.
Size Small pieces of food cook faster than large ones. Pieces similar in size
and shape will cook more evenly when cooked together. For more even results,
reduce the power levels when cooking large pieces of food.
Natural moisture Very moist foods cook more evenly because microwave energy
heats water molecules very efficiently.
Stirring Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetable from the outside to the
center to distribute the heat more evenly. This will allow the food to cook
faster. (Constant stirring is not necessary.)
Turning Turn over foods such as pork chops, roasts or whole cauliflower
halfway through the cook time. This will help to expose all sides equally to
microwave energy.
Placing food Place delicate areas of food items, such as asparagus tips,
toward the center of the turntable tray.
Arranging food Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or
salmon, with the thicker or meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable
tray.
Letting food stand After removing the food from the microwave, cover the food
with foil or a casserole lid and let it stand to finish cooking. This will
help the food finish cooking in the center and avoids overcooking the outer
edges. The length of stand time depends on the density and surface area of the
food items.
Wrapping foods Sandwiches and many other food types containing pre-baked bread
should be wrapped in paper towels or wax paper prior to placing in the
microwave to help prevent the food items from drying out while heating.
Convection
Convection cooking circulates hot air through the oven cavity with a fan. The
constantly moving air surrounds the food to heat the outer portion quickly,
creating even browning and sealed-in flavor by the constant motion of hot air
over the food surfaces. You can set a temperature range from 200 to 450° F
(100 to 230°C). Notes Use the Speed Chef mode for cooking with
microwave and conventional heat combined. You can not combine these two modes
manually. For best cooking results always use the wire rack with Convection
mode.
9 CAUTION The oven door and exterior and the wire rack will become hot during
Convection. Always use oven mits.
Cookware tips for Convection
Metal Pans: Recommended for all types of baked products, especially where
browning is important. Dark or dull finish metal pans are best for breads and
pies because they absorb heat and produce crisper crust. Shiny aluminum pans
are better for cakes, cookies or muffins because they reflect heat and help
produce a light tender crust.
16
Glass or glass-ceramic casseroles or baking dishes: Best suited for egg and
cheese recipes due to the cleanability of glass.
Note: Always use the convection rack when using the Convection mode.
Setting Convection mode
The appliance must be turned off. 1. Press Convection.

Tips for defrosting
9 WARNING
HEALTH RISK Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or poultry. Drain off
this liquid when turning meat and poultry, and under no circumstances, use it
for other purposes, or allow it to come into contact with other foods.
Always enter the weight in lbs when using the defrost by weight feature (see
program table).
Use the defrost mode for raw food items only. Defrosting gives best results
when food to be thawed
is a minimum of 0° F (taken directly from a freezer). If the food has been
stored in a refrigerator-freezer that does not maintain a temperature of 5° F
or below, always program a lower food weight or lower cook time to prevent
cooking the food. If the frozen food is stored outside the freezer for up to
20 minutes, enter a reduced cook time or weight. The shape of the package will
alter the defrosting time. Shallow rectangular food packets defrost more
quickly than a deep frozen block of food. Separate pieces as they begin to
defrost. Separated frozen pieces of food defrost better. Shield warm areas of
food with small pieces of aluminum foil, if they start to heat up. Use small
pieces of aluminum foil to shield food items like chicken wings, leg tips and
fish tails. Do not allow aluminum foil to touch the oven cavity when
defrosting.
Frozen Foods
Use the Frozen Foods feature to prepare frozen convenience foods, like chicken
nuggets, french fries, fish sticks, using bottom heat and Convection. You can
set a temperature range from 200 to 450° F (100 to 230°C).

Cooking tip / Procedure
A dark or dull baking sheet will result in a browner, crisper crust. For a
tender, light golden brown crust, use light, shiny metal bakeware. A dark or
dull baking sheet will result in a browner, crisper crust. Use a square baking
pan.
Ideal for ready-made mixes. Prepare according to package directions. Use with
fresh or frozen dinner rolls. A dark or dull baking pie pan will result in a
browner, crisper crust. Ideal for ready-made mixes. Prepare according to
package directions. Use dark or dull metal pan. Stir once.
Best for individual shortcakes. Use dark coated pan.
Cooking eggs in your microwave
Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hardcooked eggs in the shell; they
can explode.
Always pierce yolk on whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
Cook eggs just until set; they will become tough if overcooked.
Cooking scrambled eggs is safe.
Cooking vegetables in your microwave
Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Rarely is extra water needed.
If dense vegetables such as potatoes or carrots are being cooked, add about ¼
cup of water.
Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster
than larger vegetables.
Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be
arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more
evenly if turned over halfway through cooking.
Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends
pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented
microwavable plastic wrap.
Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, eggplant,
etc., should have their skin pricked in several locations before cooking to
prevent them from bursting.
For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the
cook time.
Most of the time, the denser the food, the longer the required standing time.
For example, a baked potato should stand for 5 minutes before serving, while a
dish of peas may be served immediately.
29
Cooking seafood in your microwave
Be sure to place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe
dish. Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork. Use a
tight cover to steam
fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer.

Cleaning and Maintenance
9 WARNING Be sure the entire appliance has cooled and grease has solidified
before attempting to clean any part of the appliance.
Cleaning Guide
For best performance and for safety reasons, keep the oven clean inside and
outside. Take special care to keep the inner door panel and oven front frame
free of food and grease buildup.
Never use abrasive scouring powder or pads on the microwave. Wipe the
microwave oven inside and out with a soft cloth and warm (not hot) mild
detergent solution. Then rinse and wipe completely dry.
Wipe spatters immediately with a wet paper towel, especially after cooking
greasy foods like chicken or bacon.
Clean your microwave oven weekly or more often, if needed.
Never operate the microwave oven without food in the oven cavity, unless pre-
heating with Convection, Pizza, Frozen Foods and Keep Warm mode; this can
damage the magnetron tube or ceramic tray. You may wish to leave a cup of
water standing inside the oven when it is not in use to prevent damage if the
oven is accidentally turned on.
Part Oven cavity
Wire rack Metal turntable tray Ceramic tray Door seal
Recommendations Keep inside (cavity) of the oven clean. Food particles and spilled liquids can stick to the oven walls, causing the oven to work less efficiently. Wipe up spills immediately. Use a damp, clean cloth and mild soap. DO NOT use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. To help loosen bakedon food particles or liquids, heat 2 cups of water (add the juice of 1 lemon if you desire to keep the oven fresh smelling) in a 4 cup measuring glass at High power for 5 minutes or until boiling. Let stand in oven cavity for 1 or 2 minutes. For baked-on grease spatters, wash with hot, soapy water, rinse and dry. Wash with soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or soap-filled pads as directed. The wire rack can also be washed in the dishwasher. Remove metal turntable tray from the oven when cleaning the oven cavity and tray. Wash the metal turntable tray in warm sudsy water or in the dishwasher. Clean with warm, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Wipe with damp cloth.

Part Door glass
Painted surfaces Stainless steel surfaces/exterior surfaces Plastic & Controls
Printed areas (words & numbers)
Recommendations Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners. If steam accumulates inside or outside the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth. Steam can accumulate when operating the oven in high humidity and in no way indicates microwave leakage. Clean with hot soapy water or apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powder cleaning agents, steel wool pads and oven cleaners. Always wipe or rub in the direction of the grain. Clean with a soapy sponge, then rinse and dry, or wipe with Fantastik® or Formula 409® spray on a paper towel. Protect and polish with Stainless Steel Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove water spots with a cloth dampened with white vinegar. When cool, clean with soapy water, rinse and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners or petroleum based solvents.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances (“Bosch”) in this
Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance sold
to you (“Product”), provided that the Product was purchased: For your normal,
household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes. New
at retail (not a display, “as is”, or previously returned model), and not for
resale, or commercial use. Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original purchase. The warranties stated
herein apply to the original purchaser of the product warranted herein and to
each succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary home use during
the term of the warranty. Please make sure to return your registration card;
while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for
Bosch to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product
recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts
Bosch warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and
workmanship for a period of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days from the
date of the original purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the
date of the original purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or
suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be
free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of
stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chips, dents, or other damage to
the finish) of the Product, for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of
purchase or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes
slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain
parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or
other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any
display, floor, “As Is”, or “B” stock appliances.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
During this warranty period, Bosch or one of its authorized service providers
will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations
stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect
in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have
been made without success, then Bosch will replace your Product (upgraded
models may be available to you, in Bosch’s sole discretion, for an additional
charge). Nothing in this warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be
replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original part. All
removed parts and components shall become the property of Bosch at its sole
option.
All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original
part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended
with respect to such parts. Bosch’s sole liability and responsibility
hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a Bosch
authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and
property damage concerns, Bosch highly recommends that you do not attempt to
repair the Product yourself, or use a nonauthorized service provider; Bosch
will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a
non-authorized service provider. Authorized service providers are those
persons or companies that have been specially trained on Bosch products, and
who possess, in Bosch’s opinion, a superior reputation for customer service
and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not
agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of Bosch). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Bosch will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the
Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an
authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous,
threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such
event, if you request, Bosch would still pay for labor and parts and ship the
parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully
liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the
service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.

concessions, including repairs, prorates, or Product replacement, once this

9 CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
LISEZ TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D’UTILISER L’APPAREIL
Consignes en matière de nettoyage
Lors du nettoyage des surfaces de la porte et du four qui se joignent ensemble
à la fermeture de la porte, utilisez seulement des savons ou des détergents
légers, non abrasifs appliqués avec une éponge ou un chiffon doux. Voyez les
directives de nettoyage des surfaces de porte dans le chapitre «Nettoyage et
entretien». Nettoyez le repose-rouleau de la plaque tournante et le plancher
de four fréquemment pour empêcher un bruit excessif. Laissez le plat céramique
se refroidir avant de le nettoyer ou de le mettre dans l’eau.
AVERTISSEMENT
Assurez-vous que l’appareil tout entier (y compris l’ampoule) s’est refroidi
et que la graisse s’est solidifiée avant de tenter de nettoyer une partie
quelconque de l’appareil.
Sécurité de cuisson
ATTENTION
Pour éviter les blessures corporelles ou les dégâts matériels, veuillez suivre
les consignes suivantes :
Ne laissez pas le four sans surveillance pendant qu’il est en marche.
N’entreposez pas de matières inflammables près ou dans le four.
Lorsque vous flambez des aliments sous le micro-ondes, allumez toujours le
ventilateur.
Ne faites pas fonctionner le four à vide. Cela pourrait endommager le four et
entraîner un risque d’incendie.
N’entreposez pas et n’utilisez pas des produits chimiques corrosifs, des
vapeurs, des matériaux inflammables ou des produits non alimentaires près ou
dans cet appareil. Cet appareil est spécialement conçu pour chauffer ou cuire
la nourriture. L’emploi de produits chimiques corrosifs dans la cuisson ou le
nettoyage endommagera l’appareil et pourrait causer des blessures.
Ne séchez pas les vêtements, les journaux ou autres matériaux dans le four.
N’utilisez pas des journaux ou des sacs de papier pour la cuisson. Il pourrait
en résulter un incendie.
N’utilisez pas des produits fabriqués de papier recyclé à moins que leur
sécurité au micro-ondes soit attestée. Ils pourraient contenir des impuretés
pouvant causer des étincelles et provoquer un incendie.
Utilisez des poignées pour retirer les éléments du four. Le récipient de
cuisson et le plateau de verre peuvent être chauds même si le four est froid.
Dans la mesure du possible, ne mettez pas en marche le système de ventilation
pendant un feu de table de cuisson. Toutefois, ne passez pas la main à travers
le feu pour l’éteindre.
Ne montez pas l’appareil au-dessus d’un évier. Ne rangez aucun objet
directement sur le dessus
de l’appareil lorsque l’appareil est en cours de fonctionnement. La nourriture
ou les ustensiles métalliques surdimensionnés ne devraient pas être placés
dans le micro-ondes, car ils pourraient entraîner des risques de décharge
électrique ou d’incendie. Ne nettoyez pas le four avec des éponges à récurer
métalliques. Des morceaux peuvent brûler et se détacher des éponges et entrer
en contact avec des composantes électriques, ce qui pourrait entraîner un
risque de décharge électrique. N’entreposez pas de matériaux dans ce four,
autres que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant, lorsqu’il n’est pas
utilisé. Ne recouvrez pas les grilles ou toute autre partie du four de
feuilles métalliques. Cela causerait une surchauffe du four.
En cas d’incendie
Si des matériaux à l’intérieur d’un four venaient à prendre feu : 1. Conserver
la porte fermée 2. Éteindre l’appareil 3. Débrancher l’appareil ou sortir le
fusible ou mettre le
disjoncteur à l’arrêt.
Liquides
Des liquides, comme de l’eau, du café ou du thé peuvent surchauffer. Ils
peuvent être chauffés au-delà du point d’ébullition sans que cela ne paraisse.
Par exemple, le bouillonnement ou l’ébullition lorsque le contenant est retiré
du micro-ondes n’est pas toujours présent. CELA POURRAIT RÉSULTER DANS DES
LIQUIDES TRÈS CHAUDS QUI BOUILLONNERONT SOUDAINEMENT DÈS LORS QUE LE CONTENANT
EST DÉRANGÉ OU QU’UN USTENSILE EST INSÉRÉ DANS LE LIQUIDE.
39
9 CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
LISEZ TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D’UTILISER L’APPAREIL
Lorsque vous faites chauffer des liquides, placez toujours une baguette en
verre ou une cuillère dans le contenant. Vous pourrez ainsi éviter un retard
d’ébullition.
ATTENTION Du métal, par exemple, une cuillère dans un verre, doit être
conservé à au moins 1 pouce (25 mm) des parois du four et de l’intérieur de la
porte. Des étincelles pourraient endommager irrévocablement le verre à
l’intérieur de la porte.
Retirez les plats préparés de leur emballage. Ils chaufferont plus rapidement
et plus uniformément dans des plats allant au micro-ondes. Les différents
composants du repas pourraient nécessiter des temps de cuisson différents.
Couvrez toujours la nourriture. Si vous ne possédez pas un couvercle adéquat
pour votre contenant, utilisez une assiette ou un papier spécial conçu pour le
micro-ondes.
Brassez ou retournez la nourriture plusieurs fois au cours de la cuisson.
Vérifiez la température.
Après la cuisson, laissez la nourriture reposer de 2 à 5 minutes
supplémentaires pour obtenir une température uniforme.
Utilisez toujours un linge ou des gants pour le four lorsque vous retirez des
assiettes du four.
Articles de cuisson
Oeufs: Ne faites pas cuire ou réchauffer des oeufs entiers, avec ou sans
coquille. La vapeur s’accumule dans les oeufs, ce qui peut les amener à
éclater, et endommager potentiellement le four ou causer des blessures. Le
réchauffement d’oeufs durs en tranches ou la cuisson d’oeufs brouillés ne pose
aucun problème. Popcorn: Utilisez uniquement du popcorn dans des emballages
conçus et étiquetés pour usage dans le micro-ondes, ou faites-le éclater dans
un éclateur de popcorn pour four à micro-ondes. Suivez les instructions du
fabricant du popcorn et utilisez une marque qui convient à l’intensité
électrique de votre four. Ne continuez pas de cuire après que le popcorn a
cessé d’éclater. Le popcorn risquerait alors de brûler. Ne laissez pas le four
sans surveillance.
ATTENTION Lorsque vous utilisez du popcorn préemballé pour microondes,
vérifiez le poids de l’emballage avant d’utiliser la fonction de popcorn.
Réglez le four selon le poids de l’emballage du popcorn. Si vous ne suivez pas
ces instructions, il se peut que le popcorn ne s’éclate pas correctement et
pourrait s’enflammer et causer un incendie.
Aliments avec peau non poreuse : Les pommes de terre, les tomates, les patates
douces, les pommes, les courges entières et les saucissons sont des exemples
d’aliments avec des peaux non poreuses. Ces types d’aliments doivent être
percés avant la cuisson pour les empêcher d’éclater. Aliments pour nourrissons
/ lait maternisé: Ne chauffez pas les biberons ou les aliments pour
nourrissons dans le four à micro-ondes. Le pot de verre ou la surface de
l’aliment pourrait sembler tiède alors que l’intérieur pourrait brûler la
bouche et l’oesophage du nourrisson. Grande friture de gras : N’effectuez pas
de grande friture de gras dans le four. L’huile pourrait chauffée très
rapidement au-delà de sa température idéale dans un four à micro-ondes. Les
températures pourraient monter à tel point que l’huile de cuisson arrivera au
point d’inflammabilité et s’enflammera. L’huile chauffée pourrait bouillonner
et être projetée causant des dommages potentiels au four et même des blessures
aux personnes. Par ailleurs, les ustensiles microondables pourraient ne pas
supporter la température de l’huile chaude et pourraient occasionner le bris
de l’ustensile si celui-ci contient une imperfection, une rayure ou une
écaille. Conserves maison / Séchage des aliments / Petites quantités
d’aliments : N’utilisez pas le four à microondes pour les conserves maison ou
pour le chauffage de tout pot fermé. La pression s’accumulera et le pot
pourrait éclater. Par ailleurs, le four ne peut maintenir l’aliment à la bonne
température de mise en conserve. Les aliments mis en conserve incorrectement
pourraient rancir et être dangereux à consommer. De petites quantités
d’aliments ou des aliments à faible contenu d’humidité peuvent s’assécher,
brûler ou s’enflammer. Ne séchez pas les viandes, herbes, fruits ou légumes
dans votre four. La cuisson appropriée dépend du temps réglé et du poids de
l’aliment. Si vous utilisez une portion plus petite que celle recommandée et
faites cuire la portion au temps recommandé, un incendie pourrait en résulter.
Plats de brunissement :.Les plats de brunissement ou les grilles du micro-
ondes sont conçus uniquement pour la cuisson au micro-ondes. Les temps de
préchauffage varient selon la taille du plat de brunissement et de l’aliment à
cuire. Suivez toujours les instructions fournies par le fabricant du plat de
brunissement ou de la grille. Ne préchauffez pas les plats de brunissement
pendant plus de 6 minutes.
Sacs de rôtisserie de four : Si un sac de four est utilisé pour la cuisson au
micro-ondes, préparez selon les directions de l’emballage. N’utilisez pas des
attaches pour fermer les sacs, utilisez à la place des attaches de nylon, du
fil en coton ou d’une bande coupée de l’extrémité ouverte du sac. Pratiquez 6
fentes de ½ po (12,4 mm) après la fermeture du sac. Placez le sac de cuisson
dans un plat légèrement plus grand que l’aliment à cuire.

9 CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
LISEZ TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D’UTILISER L’APPAREIL
Utensiles de cuisson
Voyez aussi Guide des ustensiles micro-ondables. Les ustensiles de cuisson,
les plateaux de céramique et les grilles deviennent chauds pendant la cuisson
au micro-ondes. Utilisez des supports de casserole lorsque vous retirez les
éléments du four. Laissez le plateau de céramique et les grilles métalliques
se refroidir (le cas échéant) avant de les manipuler. N’utilisez pas des
ustensiles métalliques ou des plats contenant une garniture métallique dans le
four. Lorsque vous utilisez de la feuille en aluminium dans le four, prévoyez
au moins un espace de un pouce (25,4 mm) entre la feuille et les parois
intérieures du four ou la porte. Le plateau de céramique et les grilles
métalliques (le cas échéant) deviendront chauds pendant la cuisson.Le
récipient de cuisson et le plateau de céramique peuvent être chauds même si le
four est froid. N’utilisez jamais des matériaux en papier, plastique ou autres
matériaux combustibles non prévus pour la cuisson. Lorsque vous faites cuire
avec des matériaux de papier, de plastique ou autres matériaux combustibles,
suivez les recommandations du fabricant. N’utilisez pas des serviettes de
papier qui contiennent des fibres de nylon ou des fibres synthétiques. Le
chauffage de fibres synthétiques pourrait fondre et amener le papier à
s’enflammer. Ne pas chauffez des contenants scellés ou des sacs de plastique
dans le four. L’aliment ou le liquide pourrait se dilater rapidement et causer
le bris du contenant ou du sac. Percez ou ouvrez le contenant ou le sac avant
la cuisson.
Plateau en metalle
N’utilisez pas le four sans la plaque tournante métallique en place. Vérifiez
que la plaque tournante métallique est correctement positionnée et tourne
quand le four est en utilisation. Il pourrait s’ensuivre une cuisson
inadéquate ou des dommages au four. Utilisez uniquement la plaque tournante
métallique conçue pour ce four. Ne lui substituez aucun autre plat. Toujours
remettre en place le plateau en métal dans le position initiale.
Thermomètres
N’utilisez pas des thermomètres de cuisson ordinaires dans le four. La plupart
des thermomètres de cuisson contiennent du mercure et pourraient causer un arc
électrique, une anomalie ou des dommages au four.
Pacemakers
ATTENTION Pour éviter la défaillance d’un stimulateur cardiaque, consultez le
médecin ou le fabricant du stimulateur cardiaque à propos des effets de
l’énergie micro-ondes sur le stimulateur cardiaque.

Fonctionnement du moteur du ventilateur
Après l’utilisation du four, le moteur du ventilateur continue de tourner afin
de refroidir les composants électriques. Cela est parfaitement normal et il
est possible de retirer la nourriture du four pendant que le ventilateur est
en marche.
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS.
41
Causes des dommages
AVIS: Du métal, par exemple, une cuillère dans un verre, doit
être conservé à au moins un pouce (25 mm) des parois du four et de l’intérieur
de la porte. Des étincelles pourraient endommager irrévocablement le verre à
l’intérieur de la porte. Eau dans le four chaud : ne jamais verser d’eau dans
le four chaud, car cela produit de la vapeur qui peut endommager l’enceinte
émaillée sous l’effet du changement de température. Ne pas laisser pendant une
période prolongée dans le four fermé des produits alimentaires humides, car
cela peut favoriser l’apparition de corrosion dans le four. Le jus de fruit
peut tacher l’enceinte du four. Toujours enlever le jus de fruit sans
attendre, quand il est sûre de toucher, en utilisant d’abord un chiffon
mouillé, puis un chiffon sec. Refroidissement avec la porte ouverte : laisser
le four refroidir sans ouvrir la porte. Même si la porte n’est que légèrement
entrouverte, cela peut à la longue endommager les façades des meubles voisins.
Joint de porte très encrassé : lorsque le joint est très sale, la porte ne se
ferme plus correctement. Les façades des meubles voisins risquent d’être
endommagées. Faire en sorte que le joint de la porte soit toujours propre.
Porte du four utilisée comme siège ou desserte : ne pas monter sur la porte du
four, ni s’asseoir dessus ou s’y suspendre. Ne pas déposer sur la porte des
accessoires ou ustensiles de cuisson quelconques.
Montage des accessoires : selon le type de four, les accessoires peuvent rayer
la porte lors de la fermeture de cette dernière. Toujours mettre les
accessoires entièrement dans le four.
Ne tenez pas et ne transportez pas l’appareil par la poignée de porte. La
poignée de porte ne peut supporter le poids de l’appareil et pourrait se
briser ou les charnières pourraient être endommagées.
Le fonctionnement du micro-ondes sans aliment dans la cavité du four pourrait
occasionner une surcharge. Ne faites jamais fonctionner le micro-ondes à moins
que la cavité du four ne contienne des aliments. La seule exception à cette
consigne est un test de matériel de cuisson, voyez la section ~ “Guide des
ustensiles pour micro-ondes”, ou un mode Speed Chef nécessitant un
préchauffage.
Réglez toujours la puissance du micro-ondes tel que recommandé pour l’aliment.
Des réglages à trop forte puissance peuvent très rapidement surchauffer les
aliments.
La plaque rotative pourrait sautiller si elle est surchargée.
Protection de l’environnement
Déballez l’appareil et jetez l’emballage dans le respect de l’environnement.
Conseils d’économie d’énergie
Pendant la cuisson, ouvrez le moins possible la porte du four.
Pour les gâteaux, utilisez des moules foncés, laqués noir ou émaillés, car ils
absorbent particulièrement bien la chaleur .
Si vous avez plusieurs gâteaux, faites-les cuire de préférence l’un après
l’autre. Le four est encore chaud permet de réduire la durée de cuisson du
gâteau suivant. Vous pouvez aussi placer l’un à côté de l’autre deux moules à
cake.
