each situation. Depending on the exact characteristics of
the food you may need to increase or shorten the cooking
times or increase or decrease the power levels.
The greater the amount of food, the longer the cooking
time. Keep in mind that:
- Double the quantity = double the time
- Half the quantity = half the time
The lower the cooking power selected, the longer the
cooking time.
Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more quickly.
Cooking will be more uniform if the food is evenly
distributed on the turntable. If you put dense foods on
the outer part of the plate and less dense ones on the
centre of the plate, you can heat up different types of food
simultaneously.
You can open the oven door at any time. When you do
this the oven switches off automatically. The microwave
will only start working again when you close the door and
press the start key.
It takes less time if we put a cover over food, but the
cover should have vents to allow steam to escape and
prevent an extreme build up of pressure.

DEFROSTING WITH MICROWAVES
General instructions for defrosting
When defrosting, use only dishes that are appropriate for
microwaves.
The defrost function by weight and the tables refer to the
defrosting of raw food.
The defrosting time depends on the quantity and thickness
of the food. When freezing food keep the defrosting
process in mind. Distribute the food evenly in the
container.
Distribute the food well. You can use aluminium foil on
delicate food.
IMPORTANT
The aluminium foil should not come into contact with the
oven inner cavity of the oven as this may cause electrical
arcing.
Thick portions of food should be turned over several times
in the process of baking.
Distribute the frozen food as evenly as possible since
narrow and thick portions defrost more quickly than the
thicker and broader parts.
Fat-rich foods such as butter, cheese and cream should
not be completely defrosted. If they are kept at room
temperature thy will be ready to be served in a few
minutes. With ultra-frozen cream, if you find small pieces
of ice in it, you should mix these in before serving.
Place poultry on an upturned plate so that the meat juices
