Earthing
This appliance is designed to be earthed. The power cable includes an earth wire and
an earth terminal, and must be plugged into a socket that includes an earth carrying
an earth pin. In case of short-circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock. It is
recommended that you plug the microwave into a separate circuit supplying no other
appliance.
WARNING : The incorrect use of an earthed plug can cause electric shock.
Note:
To find out more about earthing or electrical installations in general, please contact
1.
a technician or a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer and the distributor will not be liable for any damage or injuries to
2.
persons resulting from not following the power supply procedures.
Utensils
For microwaves, the ideal container must be transparent to microwaves, allowing the
1.
microwaves to pass through for improved heating.
Avoid using recycled paper containers: These may contain minute metal fragments
2.
which may cause sparks and/or fire.
It is preferable to use round or oval plates rather than square or rectangular plates:
