For microwave operation
If you’d like to modify your favorite recipes to use a
microwave, you should note the following:
Shorten cooking time by or ½. Use the recipes in this
cookbook as a guideline.
Foods with a high water content, like fish, meat,
poultry, vegetables, fruit, stews and soups, can easily
be prepared in the microwave. When cooking foods
with a low water content, like plate servings, the
food surface should be moistened with water prior to
cooking or heating.
When adding fluids to raw foods that should be
steamed, reduce the amount of fluid listed in the
original recipe to . If necessary, add more fluid
during cooking.
The addition of cooking fat can be greatly reduced. A
small amount of butter, margarine or oil is sufficient to
add flavor to your foods. The microwave is therefore
great for preparing low-fat foods for dieting.

For combi operation
In general, the same rules apply as for microwave
operation. Additionally, please remember the following
notes.
1. Use the recipes in this cookbook as a guideline
when selecting the Hot Air temperature. The
temperature should not be too high even for long
cooking times, since the foods will brown too much
on the outside while still being raw on the inside.
2. The microwave power should correspond to the
type of food and the cooking time. Use the recipes
in this cookbook as a guideline.
3. If you prepare foods using the combi microwave-
grill operation, you should observe the following:
For large, big foods, e.g. pork roast, the microwave
time is correspondingly longer than for small, flat
foods. It is exactly opposite when using the grill.
The closer the food is located to the grill, the faster
it will brown. This means that when you prepare
large pieces of roast in the combi operation, the
grill time might be shorter than for smaller pieces of
roast.
4. For cooking in combi operation or with hot air only,
the lowest grill rack is usually used. Use the highest
grill rack for grilling, to achieve a faster and more
even browning (exception: large, big foods and
casseroles should be grilled on the lowest grill
rack).
