Microwaves
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The energy makes it possible to cook
orwarm up a dish without affecting the form or colour.
Cooking principle
• The microwaves the microwave generates are spread evenly by a distribution system.
Thiscooks the dish evenly.
• The food absorbs the microwaves to a depth of approximately 2.5 cm. Cooking then
continues, because the heat is spread in the dish.
• The cooking times vary and depend on the dish you use and the properties of the food:
▷Quantity and density
▷Moisture content
▷Starting temperature (whether or not it is chilled)
Please note!
The dish is cooked from the inside out by means of heat distribution. The cooking
continues even when you take the dish from the oven. Standing times in recipes should
therefore be adhered to, in order to ensure:
• Even heating into the middle of the dish.
• Equal temperatures in all parts of the dish.
Microwave power setting
Power Use
1000 W For quick heating of drinks, water and dishes containing a lot of moisture.
For cooking fresh or frozen vegetables.
750 W For prepairing and heating of drinks and dishes.
600 W For melting chocolate.For cooking fish and seafood.
For heating on two levels.
For cooking dried beans at low temperatures.
For heating or cooking delicate dishes with eggs.
360 W For cooking dairy products or jam at low temperatures.
180 W For fast defrosting of dishes.
For softening butter or ice cream.
90 W For defrosting cakes containing cream.
Guidelines for cookware
USE

EN 12
Cookware that you use for the microwave function should not block the microwaves. Metals
such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper reflect microwaves. For that reason, do not use
metal cookware. Cookware which is designated as microwave-safe can be used safely. For more
information about suitable cookware, consult the following guidelines and always use the glass
baking tray on level one if you use the microwave function.

Warning!
• Heating liquids in the microwave can result in delayed boiling. This means that the liquid
may start to boil furiously after it is removed from the microwave, with the risk ofscalding.
You can offset the delayed boiling effect by placing a plastic or glass spoon in the liquid
prior to heating it in the microwave.
• Take care with baby food:
▷Shake or stir the content of babies’ bottles or pots of baby food after heating.
▷Check the temperature of the food carefully prior to consumption to prevent
scaldinginjuries.
• Cutlery and tableware may become hot after using the microwave.

Cleaning the appliance
Clean the oven regularly to prevent fat and food particles from accumulating, especially
on the surfaces of the interior and the exterior, the door and the seal.
• Activate the child lock (to prevent that the appliance is switched on accidentally).
• Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.
• Next wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.
• Remove splashes and stains on the interior surfaces with a cloth and soapy water.
• Next wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.
Important!
Make sure that no water enters the vents. Never use abrasive cleaning materials
or chemical solvents. Always make sure that the seal of the door is clean.
This prevents accumulation of dirt and allows you to close the door properly.
Cleaning function (Steam clean)
With Steam clean and a damp cloth, you can easily remove grease and dirt from the oven walls.
Using Steam clean
• Only use Steam clean when the oven has cooled down fully. It is more difficult to remove
dirt and grease if the oven is hot.
• The program takes 4 minutes. Then we advise you to wait for 30 minutes. Food remains on
the enamel walls will be sufficiently soaked after 30 minutes so that they can be removed
with a damp cloth.
1. Remove all accessories from the oven.
2. Pour 0.15 litres of water into the bottom of the oven.
3. Select ‘Cleaning’ with the function knob.
4. Touch the confirm key to start Steam clean.
