The golden rules for trouble-free and save working with a
microwave oven
1. Switch the appliance on only when food has been
placed in the cooking space, and only operate it when
the turntable is inserted.
2. Always keep the appliance clean, especially in the vicinity of
the door seals and door seal surfaces.
3. Never damage:
■ the door
■ the door hinges
■ the door seals and their surfaces
■ the door frame
(e.g. never jam anything between door and frame)
Clean the door seals and their surfaces (also the door frame)
with a mild detergent and hot water.
Note:
Should the door seals and door seal surfaces be damaged,
the appliance should not be operated until it has been re­
paired by the AEG Service Centre or by an AEG-trained elec­
trician!
4. Only use suitable ovenware.
5. When heating liquids, please always additionally place a tea­
spoon In the container to avoid delayed boiling.
But it must not touch the walls.
During delayed boiling, the boiling temperature is attained
without typical steam bubbles rising. Even when the contain­
er is only slightly shaken, the liquid may then suddenly vigor­
ously boil over or spurt. Risk of scalding.
6. Food with a “skin” or “peel”, such as potatoes, tomatoes, sau­
sages, and the like should be pierced with a fork so that any
steam present can escape and the food will not burst.
7. Make sure that a minimum temperature of 70 °C is attained
for the cooking/heating of food. This will be achieved if you
follow the instructions given in the cooking tables (time/
power). Never use a mercury or liquid thermometer for meas­
uring the food temperatures.
8. Babyfood in jars or bottles should basically be heated with­
out a lid or top and well stirred or shaken after heating to en­
sure uniform distribution of the heat. Before giving your child
the babyfood, please check the temperature.
9. Please note that, at high power and time settings, the
ovenware heats up. Therefore use protective mittens suit­
able for handling pots and pans.
