Melissa 653-082: Important!

•

Clingfilm can be used particularly for soups, sauces, stews

or when defrosting food. Can also be used as a loose

covering to prevent fat, etc. from spraying out into the oven

space.

•

Kitchen roll is ideal, as it absorbs moisture and fat. For

example, bacon can be placed in layers, with kitchen roll

between each layer. The bacon will then be completely

crispy, as it does not sit in “its own fat”. Home-made bread

can be taken directly from the freezer, wrapped in kitchen

roll and heated in the microwave oven.

•

Wet kitchen roll can be used for fish or vegetables.

Covering the food prevents it from drying out.

•

Greaseproof paper Fish, large vegetables, such as

cauliflower, corn on the cob, etc. can be wrapped in wet

greaseproof paper.

•

Roasting bags are ideal for meat, fish and vegetables.

However, they must never be closed using metal clips.

Cotton thread should be used instead. Prick the bag with

small holes, and place it in the microwave oven on a plate

or glass dish.

Important!

When you prepare food in the microwave oven, you should not

use the following implements and materials:

•

Sealed glass/bottles with small openings, as they may

explode.

•

General purpose thermometers

•

Silver foil/foil trays, as the microwave rays cannot penetrate

the material and the food will not cook.

•

Recycled paper, as it may contain small metal splinters that

could cause sparks and/or fire.

•

Closed tins/containers with tightly sealed lids, as excess

pressure may cause the tin/container to explode.

•

Metal clips and other lids/foils containing metal wires. These

can generate sparks in the microwave oven and must

therefore be removed.

•

Metal bowls/containers and packaging, unless they are

designed specifically for use in microwave ovens. The

microwaves are reflected and cannot penetrate the food

through the metal.

•

Plates, dishes and bowls/containers with metal, gold or

silver decorations. They may break and/or cause sparks to

form in the oven space.

CLEANING

When cleaning the microwave oven, you should pay attention to

the following points:

•

Switch the microwave oven off and remove the plug from

the wall socket before cleaning.

•

Never use scouring powder, steel scourers or other strong

cleaning agents to clean the interior or exterior surfaces of

the microwave oven, as they may scratch the surfaces. 

•

Instead use a cloth dampened with hot water, and add a

little detergent if the microwave oven is very dirty. 

•

Make sure that no water gets into the vent holes.

•

Always keep the door open when cleaning the control

panel, to avoid the microwave oven accidentally starting up

during the cleaning process.

•

The turning ring and the floor of the microwave oven must

be cleaned regularly so that the glass turntable can rotate

without hindrance. 

•

The glass turntable and turning ring can be cleaned in a

dishwasher. 

BEFORE GOING TO A REPAIR CENTRE

If the microwave oven will not start:

•

Check that the plug is correctly inserted in the wall socket. If

that is not the case, remove the plug, wait 10 seconds and

then plug it in again.

•

Check whether a fuse has blown or whether the fuse relay

has been switched off. If not, you can check that the socket

itself is working by plugging in another device.

•

Check that the door is closed properly. If not, the automatic

safety system (via the lock dowels) ensures that the

microwave oven cannot be started.

•

Check whether the operating panel has been set correctly,

and whether the timer has been activated.

If the microwave oven still does not work, you should contact a

repair engineer.
