Miele M 625 EG, Operating Instructions Manual

Page: 12 / 48

Do not use any containers or
cutlery made from or containing
metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal
glassware, temperature-sensitive
plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery,
metal clips or wire ties. Do not use
bowls with milled rims, or cream pots
with the tinfoil lid only partially removed.
Such items could be damaged or
cause a fire hazard.
The rack and gourmet plate
supplied with the appliance are
designed to be compatible with
microwaves and can therefore be used
for grilling with or without the
microwave function.
Do not use the rack and the
gourmet plate at the same time.
This will damage the gourmet plate.
Always place the gourmet plate directly
on the turntable.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plastic,
paper or other inflammable materials.
Before using single use plastic
containers, make sure they are suitable
for use in microwave ovens. See
appropriate section.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells in the microwave oven in a
specially designed egg-boiling device
available from specialist shops.
Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not
be reheated in the microwave oven as
this may lead to the eggs bursting,
even after they have been taken out of
the oven.
Eggs can be cooked without their
shells in the microwave oven only if
the yolk membrane has been
punctured several times first.
The pressure could otherwise cause
the egg yolk to explode.
Danger of injury.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such
as tomatoes, sausages, jacket
potatoes and aubergines, should be
pierced or the skin cut in several places
before cooking to allow steam to
escape and prevent the food from
bursting.
Do not reheat food in the oven in
heat-retaining bags which are
intended for normal ovens, such as
roasting bags. These heat-retaining
bags usually contain a thin layer of
aluminium foil which reflects
microwaves. This reflected energy can,
in turn, cause the outer paper covering
to become so hot that it ignites.
Always ensure that food, the
gourmet plate or a browning dish
has been placed in the microwave, and
that the turntable is in place, before
switching on.
Do not use the appliance for deep
frying food and do not leave it
unattended when cooking with oils and
fats as these can be a fire hazard if
allowed to overheat.
