General

This microwave oven is extremely safe. As with all products, however, there are a number of things you need to bear in mind.

Repairs must only be carried out by an authorised service engineer.

It is hazardous for anyone other than a trained person to carry out any service or repair operation which involves the removal of any cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

Do not use the appliance if it is damaged. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

The appliance should be disconnected from the mains before being repaired or cleaned. Remove the plug from the socket or turn the switch in the meter cupboard to zero.

For electrical safety reasons, the appliance must not be cleaned using high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.

This combi-microwave oven has been designed for domestic use. Use the appliance only for cooking food.

When cooking dishes that contain alcohol, the alcohol may evaporate due to the high temperature.

Do not use the microwave oven for storing flammable or easily deformable materials.

Make sure that the food is always heated sufficiently. The time required for this depends on various factors, such as the quantity and type of food. Any bacteria in the food will only be killed if the food is heated to a temperature greater than 70 °C for at least 10 minutes. Allow the food to cook for a bit longer if you are not sure whether the food has been heated sufficiently.

Never heat food in sealed containers. Pressure will build up inside the container and may cause it to explode.

Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use.

What you should pay attention to

Place a plastic spoon in the cup if you want to boil a liquid (water, for example). The liquid may boil without you seeing any bubbles. As soon as you take the cup out of the oven, the liquid may suddenly start to boil violently and splash out of the cup, with the risk of you getting scalded.

The content of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature is to be checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.

Your microwave oven is safe only if the door is closing properly!.

Never put anything between the oven door and make sure that the door and seal are always clean.

If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not be operated until it has been repaired by a trained person.

You should only use the microwave oven for defrosting and cooking food and not, for example, for drying clothes or paper. Clothes or paper could catch fire.

If you heat small quantities of dry or powdery products in the microwave oven (when drying herbs, for example), there is a chance that they will spontaneously combust.

If something in the combi-oven catches fire, switch the microwave oven off and take the plug out of the socket. Keep the oven door closed.

A microwave oven is not suitable for:

preserving

■ cooking eggs in their shells, because they will burst due to the increase in pressure;

■ heating oil for deep frying.

Remove metal twists from plastic bags and use dishes and plates that are suitable for the microwave oven.

You should only heat liquids in airtight packaging after first pricking a few holes in the packaging. This is because of the increase in pressure during heating.

Do not heat food for longer than is necessary; allow for the 'continued cooking'.

What you should pay attention to

Prick the skin of meat, chicken and fish with a fork or other pointed object. This prevents these foods spattering.

You can open the door when the microwave function is switched on; the microwave function then switches off automatically and the time set is stopped.

Not all materials can be used in the combimicrowave oven. The table below shows which materials can be used and which materials cannot be used.

  ■ Clean the inside and outside of the oven regularly using soapy water and dry it thoroughly with a dry cloth.
  ■ Make sure that the microwave distributor cover is clean. A cover which is not clean may cause sparking.

• Clean the accessories regularly; use soapy water and a brush and dry the accessories thoroughly with a dry cloth. The accessories may also be washed in a dishwasher.

• Odours will disappear if you put a glass of vinegar or water with lemon juice added in the oven space. Switch the microwave on for two minutes on full power. Then wipe with a damp cloth.

• Check the door catch and the door seal regularly for damage.
• Do not use the combi-microwave oven if the door or door catch are damaged.

What should I do if...

If the appliance does not work properly, this does not always mean that it is defective. Try to deal with the problem yourself first. Phone the service department if the advice given below does not help.

Is the plug in the socket?
Is the door closed properly?
- Is the fuse in the meter cupboard defective?
■ Have the power level and cooking time been set properly?
- Is there anything in the microwave oven that should not be there?
■ Have you used the correct utensils?
Are the ventilation openings blocked?
- Is the food sufficiently defrosted?
- Did you turn or stir the food during cooking?

General

In case of faults phone the service department. See the guarantee certificate or consult the internet site www.hps.nl. This site also contains tips on how to use and clean your microwave. You can also purchase various cleaning products on this site.

Disposal of packaging and appliance

The appliance packaging is recyclable.

The following may have been used:

cardboard;
■ polythene film (PE);
■ CFC-free polystyrene (PS hard foam).

Dispose of these materials responsibly and in accordance with government regulations.

As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.

On the data plate is put the symbol of a crossed-out wheeled dustbin:

Symbol of a trash bin crossed with a diagonal line, no text or numbers present

This means that at the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a special local authority differentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service.

Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources.
