Caution! Do not let the appliance
operate when there is no food in it.
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 po-
tatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with a fork sev-
eral 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.
• Turn larger pieces after half of the cooking
time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar-sized
pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porcelain,
ceramic or earthenware with small holes, e.
g. on handles or unglazed bottoms. Mois-
ture going into the holes can cause the
cookware to crack when it is heated.
• The glass cooking tray is a work space for
heating food or liquids. It is necessary for
the operation of the microwave.
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish:
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small
upturned plate with a container below it so
that the defrosting liquid collects in the con-
tainer.
• Turn the food after half of the defrosting
time. If possible, divide and then remove the
pieces that started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau,
quark:
• Do not fully defrost the food in the appli-
ance, but let it defrost at room temperature.
This gives a more even result. Fully remove
all metal or aluminium packaging before de-
frosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables:
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables,
which are to be further prepared while raw,
in the appliance. Let them defrost at room
temperature.
• You can use a higher microwave power to
cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting
them first.
Ready meals:
• You can prepare ready meals in the appli-
ance only if their packaging is suitable for
microwave use.
• You must follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions printed on the packaging (e.g. remove
the metal cover and pierce the plastic film).
