Microwave Oven / User Manual

•
Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is piled high. You should therefore dist-
ribute the food so that it is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs should not be
placed in layers on top of one another.
•
Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for your ovenware, use a plate or special
microwave foil.
•
Stir or turn the food 2 or 3 times during cooking.
•
After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to 5 minutes so that it can achieve an even
temperature.
•
Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing plates from the oven.
•
This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will require less seasoning.

A
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This
means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles rising
to the surface. Even if the container only moves a little, the hot liquid can suddenly boil
over and spatter. When heating liquids, always place a spoon in the container. This will
prevent delayed boiling.
Caution!
Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls
and the inside of the door. Sparks could irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the
door.
