Recommendations
CAUTION!
Do not let the oven operate
when there is no food in it.
• Put the food into the oven without any
packaging. The packaged ready
meals can be put into the oven only
when the packaging is microwave
safe (check information on the
packaging).
• Put the food on a plate on the bottom
of the cavity when you use Microwave
function.
Cooking
• Cook food covered. If you want to
keep a crust cook food without a
cover.
• Do not overcook the dishes by setting
the power and time too high. The food
can dry out, burn or cause fire.
• Do not use the oven to cook eggs or
snails in their shells, because they
can burst. Pierce the yolk of fried egg
before reheating it.
• Pierce food with skin or peel with a
fork several times before cooking.
• Cut vegetables into similar-sized
pieces.
• Stir liquid dishes from time to time.
• Stir the food before serving.
• After you turn off the oven, take the
food out and let it stand for a few
minutes. Refer to the "Hints and tips"
chapter.
Defrosting
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a
small upturned plate with a container
below it, or on a defrosting rack or
plastic sieve so that the defrosting
liquid can run off.

subsequently.
• To cook fruit and vegetables without
defrosting them first, you can use a
higher microwave power.
