[. . . ] Disposal of equipment no longer used According to European Directive 2002/96/EC on the management of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), home electrical appliances should not be put into the normal systems for disposal of solid urban waste. Outdated appliances should be collected separately to optimise component material recovery and re-cycling rates and to prevent potential harm to human health and the environment. The symbol of a rubbish container superimposed by a diagonal cross should be put on all such products to remind people of their obligation to have such items collected separately.

Fit the grid iron in such a way that it doesn't come into contact with the metal surfaces of the oven cavity since if it does there is a danger of electric arcing which may damage the oven. When the microwave grill is used for the first time there will be some smoke and a smell coming from the oils used during oven manufacture. The oven door window becomes very hot when the grill is working. When the grill is operating, the cavity walls and the grid iron become very hot. If the grill is used for extended period of time it is normal to find that the elements will switch themselves off temporarily due to the safety thermostat. When food is to be grilled or cooked in containers you must check that the container in question is suitable for microwave use. When the grill is used it is possible that some splashes of fat may go onto the elements and be burnt. This is a normal situation and does not mean there is any kind of operating fault.
