Microwave: Defrosting/Reheating/Cooking
103
Before defrosting, reheating
and cooking

Place food (frozen or unfrozen) in a
dish that is suitable for microwave
use, and cover it.

Place the dish in the middle of the
glass tray on shelf level 1.
The roast probe can be used to
monitor the temperature when
reheating or cooking (see “Roast -
Roast probe”).
With Microwave Combi modes
 Use only microwave-safe and heat-
resistant cookware.
A lid is not usually required.
Never use a lid with the Combi Auto
Roast
 and Micro Broil  modes
as the food will not brown.
 Place the glass tray on shelf level 2.
Place pre-made meals in aluminum
containers directly on the glass tray.
During the defrosting,
reheating and cooking process

Turn or stir the food several times.
Stir the food from the outside
towards the middle, as food heats
more quickly from the outside.
After defrosting, reheating and
cooking
Compensating times are resting periods
in which the temperature is uniformly
distributed in the food.

Allow the food to stand at room
temperature for a few minutes to
enable the heat to spread evenly
throughout the food.

Burn hazard!
After reheating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir the
food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger. Double check after
it has been left to stand.

Danger of burns!
Be careful when removing dishes
from the appliance. Although heat is
not normally produced in the
container itself by the microwaves
(apart from stoneware), heat transfer
from the food to the container may
be considerable, making the
container itself hot.
Use pot holders when removing
dishes.
 Always ensure that food is sufficiently
cooked or reheated.
 If you are unsure whether a
sufficiently high temperature has
been reached or whether the food is
sufficiently cooked, continue
reheating a little longer.

Always follow proper food safety
guidelines.
