- Use only kitchenware, which is suitable for use in microwave ovens.

- The microwave oven is intended for heating up food and beverages. Drying of food or clothes and warming of heating blankets, house shoes, sponges, damp textile and similar objects may lead to danger of injury, combustion or fire.

- When food is heated in kitchenware of plastics or paper, check the oven from time to time to prevent combustion.

- If there is smoke, turn off the appliance or pull out the fork from the socket and leave the door open to prevent the spreading of potential fire.

- Microwave heating of beverages may cause delayed boil, which needs to be kept in mind when holding the cup.

- The content of baby bottles and baby food must be stirred or shaken and the temperature must be checked before consumption to prevent burning.

- Eggs in shells and whole hard-boiled eggs must not be heated in microwave ovens, because they can explode even after the microwave heating is finished.

- The oven should be cleaned thoroughly and potential remains of food removed.

- Not keeping the oven clean might lead to damaging its surface, which could negatively impact the lifetime of the appliance and result in a dangerous situation.

- Liquids and other foods may not be heated in closed containers – they are apt to explode.

- When the appliance is in operation, prevent pets, plants or insects to get in contact with it.
