13 Automatic programmes
The automatic programs help you prepare different
dishes and automatically select the optimal settings.
13.1 Information on "Automatic
programmes"
Follow these tips to achieve optimal cooking results:
¡
Only use food that is in perfect condition.
¡
Take the food out of its packaging and weigh it. If
you cannot set the exact weight on the appliance,
round the weight up or down.
¡
Only use microwave-safe, heat-resistant cookware,
e.g. made of glass or ceramic.
¡
Place the food in the cold cooking compartment.
¡
It is not possible to set weights outside the weight
range.
¡
With many dishes, a signal tone sounds after a cer-
tain time. Turn or stir the food.
Defrosting
¡
Freeze and store food flat and in portion-sized
quantities at -18 °C.
¡
Place the frozen food on flat cookware, such as a
glass or porcelain plate.
¡
Food may not be completely defrosted by the end
of the programme. The food can nonetheless be fur-
ther processed.
¡
The defrosted food should be left to stand for an ad-
ditional 15 to 90 minutes until it reaches an even
temperature.
¡
Liquid is produced when defrosting meat or poultry.
When turning, drain off any liquid. Do not reuse the
liquid for other purposes or allow it to come into
contact with other foods.
¡
Bread and bread rolls become hard quickly. Defrost
only in the required amounts.
¡
Place frozen bread rolls in the oven. Only pre-baked
bread rolls are suitable.
¡
After turning, remove any minced meat that has
already defrosted.
¡
Whole poultry should be placed in the cookware
breast-side down.
Vegetables

Fresh vegetables: Cut into pieces of equal size. Add
one tablespoon of water per 100 g.

ness. Wash, dry and prick the skin.
Rice
¡
Do not use brown rice or boil-in-the-bag rice.
¡
Add two to two-and-a-half times the amount of water
to the rice.
Fish
¡
Fresh fish fillet: Add 1 to 3 tablespoons of water or
lemon juice.
Leg of lamb
¡
First, put the fat side facing down in the cookware.
The leg of lamb should cover two thirds of the base
of the cookware. Add 50-100 ml of liquid.
Poultry
¡
Only use chicken portions at refrigerator temperat-
ure.
¡
Prick the skin here and there with a fork.
