4. Press the Start button to start the machine. The
length of cooking depends on the quantity and con-
sistency of the contents. With a little practice you will
soon learn to estimate the cooking time.
Please note
: cooking in the microwave oven is very
much faster than in a standard cooker. If you are not sure,
set the cooking time to low and continue cooking after-
wards if necessary. After the time has elapsed, the device
switches off and the word „END“ appears in the display.
Then you can remove the food.
Rapid Defrosting of Frozen Food
Please note:
•
As a rule of thumb, 500g of frozen food needs approx.
fi ve minutes to defrost.
•
If the frozen food has not fully defrosted within this
time, set the time in 1-minute steps.
Assuming you would like to defrost frozen food and set
the time to fi ve minutes:
1. Press the Stop button.
2. Press the Defrosting button.
3. Enter the desired cooking time using the number
buttons.

4. Press the Start button to start the machine.
If the food was frozen in a plastic container, we
recommend that it be briefl y defrosted and then
transferred to a vessel that is suitable for placing in the
microwave oven.
A time of up to 99 minutes and 99 seconds can be set for
defrosting. After the time has elapsed beeps are heard
and the word „END“ appears in the display. Press the stop
button or open the door. The word „END“ goes off.
The following table provides information on manual
defrosting.
