Heating frozen food
WARNING ‒ Risk of burns!
Heated food gives off heat. The cookware may become
hot.
▶
Always use oven gloves to remove cookware or ac-
cessories from the cooking compartment.
1.
Take ready meals out of the packaging and place in
microwave-safe cookware.
2.
Distribute the food flat in the cookware.
Food that is in contact with the bottom will cook
more quickly than food that is piled up. Do not layer
pieces of food on top of each other.
3.
Cover the food with a suitable lid, a plate or special
microwave foil.
4.
Place the cookware on the bottom of the cooking
compartment.
5.
Start the operation.
6.
Turn or stir the food 2 to 3 times during this time.
The speed at which different components of the
meal heat up may vary.
7.
To even out the temperature, leave the heated food
to stand at room temperature for approx. 2
to 5 minutes.
