In the tables below, you will find a selection of dishes
and the ideal settings for them. They tell you which
heating function and which temperature or microwave
power setting is best suited to your dish. You will find
information on suitable cooking accessories and the
position at which they should be placed in the oven. We
have listed some tips with regard to cookware and
preparation methods.
Notes
■
The values in the tables always apply to food placed
in the cooking compartment when it is cold and
empty. Only preheat the appliance if the table
specifies that you should do so. Before using the
appliance, remove any accessories that you will not
be using from the cooking compartment.
■
Do not line the accessories with greaseproof paper
until after they have been preheated.
■
The times specified in the tables are intended as a
guide only. They will depend on the quality and
composition of the food.
■
Use the accessories provided. Additional
accessories may be obtained as optional
accessories from specialist retailers or from our
after-sales service.
■
Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when
taking hot accessories or cookware out of the
cooking compartment.
Defrosting, heating up and cooking with the
microwave
The following tables provide you with numerous options
and settings for the microwave.
The times specified in the tables are only guidelines.
They may vary according to the ovenware used, the
quality, temperature and consistency of the food.
Time ranges are often specified in the tables. Set the
shortest time first and then extend the time if necessary.
It may be that you have different quantities from those
specified in the tables. A rule of thumb can be applied:
Double amount - just under double the cooking time,
half amount - half the cooking time.
Place the ovenware in the centre of the lower wire rack.
The food will then absorb the microwaves from all
sides.
Defrosting
Notes
■
Place the frozen food in an open container on the
wire rack.
■
Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken
or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with
small pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not
touch the cooking compartment walls. You can
remove the foil half way through the defrosting time.
■
Turn or stir the food once or twice during the
defrosting time. Large pieces of food should be
turned several times. When turning, remove any
liquid that has resulted from defrosting.
■
Leave defrosted items to stand at room temperature
for a further 10 to 60 minutes so that the
temperature can stabilise. The giblets can be
removed from poultry at this point.
