Tips for cooking with the
microwave
- You can choose from 7 different
microwave power levels. The higher
the power level, the more microwaves
reach the food.
- When heating up foods that cannot
be stirred or turned during cooking,
or foods with very different
consistencies, it is best to use a
lower microwave power level. This
ensures that the heat is distributed
evenly.
Extend the cooking duration
accordingly to cook the food
properly.
- Food taken straight from the
refrigerator takes longer to defrost,
reheat, and cook than food which has
been kept at room temperature.
- Fresh vegetables contain more water
and cook more quickly than stored
vegetables.
- Frequent stirring or turning heats the
food more evenly, and it is therefore
ready in less time.
- The more food you place inside the
oven, the longer it will take to cook
(twice the amount = almost twice as
long). Reducing the quantity of food
shortens the cooking duration.
- The shape of the dishware and
material from which it is made may
affect the cooking duration (see
“Microwave operation – Suitable
dishware”).
Using the turntable
Placing food directly on the floor of
the oven can cause damage to the
microwave oven.
Always
use the turntable, placing the
dishware on top.
The turntable begins turning
automatically whenever you start a
process. This ensures that the food
gets defrosted, reheated, or cooked
evenly.
Tips
- Do not place food directly on the
turntable when cooking, reheating, or
defrosting.
- Make sure that the dishware is
smaller than the turntable.
- Turn or stir food during cooking so
that it heats up evenly.
