General information about using the
appliance
General:
• After you deactivate the appliance, let the
food stand for some minutes.
• Remove the aluminium foil packaging, metal
containers, etc. before you prepare the food.
Cooking:
• If possible, cook food covered with material
suitable for use in the microwave. Only cook
food without a cover if you want to keep it
crusty
• Do not overcook the dishes by setting the
power and time too high. The food can dry
out, burn or catch fire in some places.
• Do not use the appliance to cook eggs or
snails in their shells, because they can ex-
plode. With fried eggs, pierce the yolks first.
• Prick food with "skin" or "peel", such as pota-
toes, tomatoes, sausages, with a fork several
times before cooking so that the food does
not explode.
• For chilled or frozen food, set a longer cook-
ing time.
• Dishes which contain sauce must be stirred
from time to time.
• Vegetables that have a firm structure, such as
carrots, peas or cauliflower, must be cooked
in water.
