Warming up food using the microwave mode
Observe the recommended settings for using the mi-
crowave to heat food.
WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is
heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling tem-
perature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little, the
hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter.
▶
Always place a spoon in the container when heating
liquids. This will prevent delayed boiling.
ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.
▶
Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the
inside of the door.
Note:
Cooking tips
¡
Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. You can
also use a plate or microwave film to cover the dish.
Take ready meals out of the packaging.
¡
Distribute the food flat in the cookware. Food which
lies flat cooks more quickly than food which is piled
high.
¡
Turn or stir the food two or three times during the
defrosting time.
¡
After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 2–
5ºminutes.
¡
The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cook-
ware can become very hot. Use oven gloves.
¡
Baby food:
– Place bottles without a teat or lid on the wire
rack.
– Stir or shake well after heating.
– Always check the temperature of the baby food.
¡
Place the cookware in the centre of the lower wire
rack so that the microwaves can reach the food
from all sides.
