Cooking times
The cooking times given in the cookbook

on the condition, temperature, amount of
food and on the type of cookware�
Begin with the minimum cooking time to
help prevent overcooking� If the food is not
sufficiently cooked you can always cook it
for a little longer�
„
Important!
If the recommended cooking times are
exceeded the food will be spoiled and
in extreme circumstances could catch
fire and possibly damage the interior of
the oven.
Small quantities of foods
Small quantities of food or foods with
low moisture content can burn, dry out or
catch on fire if cooked too long. If materials
inside the oven should ignite, keep the oven
door closed, turn the oven off and remove
the plug from the socket�
Eggs
Do not cook eggs in their shells and
whole hard-boiled eggs by MICROWAVE�
Pressure may build up and the eggs may
explode, even after the microwave heating
has ended�
Piercing Skin
Food with non porous skins, such as
potatoes, egg yolks and sausages must be
pierced before cooking by MICROWAVE to
prevent bursting�
Meat thermometer
Use a meat thermometer to check the
degree of cooking of roasts and poultry
only when the meat has been removed
from the oven� Do not use a conventional

because it may cause sparking�
