User manual BARTSCHER 100323

[. . . ] In this manual, symbols are used to highlight important safety instructions and any advice relating to the device. The instructions should be followed very carefully to avoid any risk of accident, personal injury or material damage. This symbol highlights hazards, which could lead to injury. Please follow the instructions very carefully and proceed with particular attention in these cases. [. . . ] The space between the door and the device must be free of foreign objects. Door seals must be tight and clean, as dirt and damage may allow electromagnetic waves to escape from the microwave oven. Take care to prevent buildup of any residues (e. Do not turn the microwave oven on when the door is open, as an excess of damaging electromagnetic waves may be emitted by the device. When in use, certain elements of the device are very hot. Never heat any flammable objects in the device. Do not prepare any food products which contain alcohol. Do not fry any food products in the device. Hot oil can lead to skin burns and/or damage to the device. Do not place any objects inside the device (cookbooks, sponges, etc. Sudden activation of the device can cause damage to such objects, and even burn them. Do not place the device near flammable materials avoid high temperatures, moisture and high humidity. To ensure proper functioning, the device must have sufficient ventilation. For this reason, it is necessary to maintain the following safe distances: - above the device: 20 cm - at rear of device: 10 cm - at sides of device: 5 cm. The device must remain a minimum distance of 2 m from radios, televisions, and other such electronics in order to avoid interference with the signal reception. The wall socket circuitry must be secured to a minimum of 16A. Connect the device directly to a wall-mounted socket; do not use extension cords or power strips. Position the device so that the plug is readily accessible and if necessary can be easily removed from its socket. Instead of traditional heat sources, a microwave oven applies an electron lamp which emits electromagnetic waves. These waves, like radio waves, are invisible but their effects can be observed. Such waves can pass through materials such as glass, porcelain, artificial materials and paper. As these materials do not contain water, grease or oil, they are not heated by the microwaves. [. . . ] Wash the exterior surface of the device with a moist cloth. To protect the parts located inside the device from damage, do not allow water to seep through the ventilation ducts into the interior of the device. To remove dirt, wash the door, door seals and attached elements with a moist cloth. Do not close the door while washing the device, to avoid accidentally turning it on. [. . . ]
