Microwave mode
Warning! Refer to Safety
chapters.
Microwave 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.
• Remove defrosted pieces subsequently.
• To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting
them first, you can use a higher microwave
power.
