8. Turn or stir the food at regular intervals to
improve heating uniformity.
9. To achieve the best cooking results with
microwaves the rack must be removed,
place the food on the glass tray and
position it at the bottom or higher levels.
10. Do not place any food or recipient with
food/liquid directly on the bottom of the
cavity. For better heating results always
place the food or recipient with food/liquid
over the glass tray.
11. Do not cover the bottom of the oven
cavity with aluminum or tin foil sheets as
there is the risk of damaging the oven.
DEFROSTING WITH MICROWAVES
1. When defrosting, use only dishes that are
appropriate for microwaves (china, glass,
suitable plastic).
2. The defrost function by weight and the
tables refer to the defrosting of raw food.
3. The defrosting time depends on the
quantity and thickness of the food. When
freezing food keep the defrosting process
in mind. Distribute the food evenly in the
container.
4. Distribute the food as best as possible
inside the oven. The thickest parts of fish
or chicken drumsticks should be turned
towards the outside. You can protect the
most delicate parts of food with pieces of
aluminium foil.
Important: The aluminium
foil must not come into contact with the
oven cavity interior as this can cause
electrical arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be turned
several times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly as
possible since narrow and thin portions
defrost more quickly than the thicker and
broader parts.
7. Fat-rich foods such as butter, cream
cheese and cream should not be
completely defrosted. If they are kept at
room temperature they will be ready to be
served in a few minutes. With ultra-frozen
cream, if you find small pieces of ice in it,
you should mix these in before serving.
8. Place poultry on an upturned plate so that
the meat juices can run off more easily.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a napkin so
that it does not become too dry.
10. Turn the food at regular intervals or
whenever the oven lets out a beep and
the display flashes the word: TURN.
11. Remove frozen food from its wrapping
and do not forget to take off any metal
twist-tags. For containers that are used to
keep frozen food in the freezer and which
can also be used for heating and cooking,
all you need to do is take off the lid. For
all other cases you should put the food
into containers that are suitable for
microwave use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting,
principally that from poultry, should be
discarded. In no event should such liquids
be allowed to come into contact with
other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the defrosting
function you need to allow for standing
time until the food is completely
defrosted.
