Information on the microwave
Preparing food
Risk of fire!
Only use the microwave to prepare food which is fit for
consumption. Using the microwave for other purposes may be
dangerous and may result in damage, e.g. heated slippers and
grain or cereal pillows could catch fire, even several hours later.
Ovenware
Risk of injury!
■Porcelain or ceramic ovenware can have small perforations in
the handles or lids. These perforations conceal a cavity
below. Any moisture that penetrates this cavity could cause
the ovenware to crack.
■Only use ovenware that is suitable for use in a microwave.
Risk of burns!
Hot food can heat up ovenware. Always use an oven cloth or
oven gloves to remove ovenware and accessories from the
cooking compartment.
Microwave power and time
Risk of fire!
Do not select a microwave power or time setting that is higher
than necessary. The food could catch fire and cause damage
to the appliance. Follow the information provided in this
instruction manual.
Packaging
Risk of fire!
■Never heat food in heat-retaining packages.
■Do not leave food heating unattended in containers made of
plastic, paper or other combustible materials.
Risk of burns!
Airtight packaging may burst when food is heated. Follow the
information provided on the packaging.
Drinks
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated.
This means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without
the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Even if the
container only vibrates a little, the hot liquid can suddenly boil
over and spatter. When heating liquids, always place a spoon in
the container. This will prevent delayed boiling.
Risk of explosion!
■Never heat drinks in containers that have been tightly sealed.
■Never overheat alcoholic drinks.
Baby food
Risk of burns!
Never heat baby food in closed containers. Always remove the
lid or teat. Stir or shake well after the food has been heated.
This is the only way to ensure even heat distribution. Check the
temperature of the food before it is given to the child.

4
Foods with shells or skin
Risk of burns!
■Never cook eggs in their shells. Never reheat hard-boiled
eggs as they may crack or explode. The same applies to
shellfish and crustaceans. Always prick the yoke when
baking or poaching eggs.
■Always prick the skin of foods that have a skin or peel
such as apples, tomatoes, potatoes and sausages before
cooking. to prevent the peel or skin from bursting.
Drying food
Risk of fire!
Never use the microwave to dry food.
Food with a low water content
Risk of fire!
Never defrost or heat food with a low water content, e.g. bread,
at too high a power or for too long.
Cooking oil
Risk of fire!
Never use the microwave to heat cooking oil on its own.
Causes of damage
Caution!
■Baking tray, greaseproof paper, aluminium foil or ovenware
on the cooking compartment floor: Do not place baking trays
or ovenware on the cooking compartment floor. Do not line
the cooking compartment floor with aluminium foil. This will
cause heat accumulation. The baking and roasting times will
no longer be correct and the enamel will be damaged.
■Foil containers: Do not use foil containers in the appliance.
They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
■Water in the hot cooking compartment: Never pour water into
the hot cooking compartment. This will cause steam. The
temperature change can cause damage to the enamel.
■Moist food: Do not store moist food in the closed cooking
compartment for long periods. This will damage the enamel.
Do not use the appliance to store food. This can lead to
corrosion.
■Fruit juice: When cooking very moist fruit flans, do not fill the
universal pan too generously. Fruit juice which runs out of the
universal pan leaves behind stains which cannot be removed.
■Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave the
cooking compartment to cool with the door closed. Do not
trap anything in the appliance door. Even if the door is only
slightly ajar, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged
over time.
■Heavily soiled seal: If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door
will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of
adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal
clean.
■Using the appliance door for standing on or placing objects
on: Do not stand or place anything on the open appliance
door. Do not place ovenware or accessories on the appliance
door.
■Transporting the appliance: Do not carry or hold the
appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot
support the weight of the appliance and could break.
■Operating the microwave without food: The microwave must
only be switched on when there is food in the cooking
compartment. The appliance may be overloaded if it is
switched on without any food inside. An exception to this rule
is for short-term testing of ovenware (see notes on
ovenware).
■Microwave popcorn: Never set the microwave power too
high. Use a power setting no higher than 600 watts. Always
place the popcorn bag on a glass plate. The disc may jump if
overloaded.

Care and cleaning
With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain
its looks and remain good order. We will explain here how you
should care for and clean your appliance correctly.
ã=Risk of short circuit!
Never use high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners to clean
the oven.
ã=Risk of burns!
Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let
the appliance cool down.
Notes
■Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass,
plastic and metal.
■Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are
caused by reflections made by the oven light.
■Enamel is baked on at very high temperatures. This can
cause some slight colour variations. This is normal and does
not affect their function. The edges of thin trays cannot be
completely enamelled. As a result, these edges can be
rough. This will not impair the anti-corrosion protection.
■Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be
removed very easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup
of water. Place a spoon into the container as well, to prevent
delayed boiling. Heat the water for 1 to 2 minutes at
maximum microwave power.
Cleaning agents
To ensure that the different surfaces are not damaged by using
the wrong cleaning agent, observe the information in the table.
Do not use
■sharp or abrasive cleaning agents,
■metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the appliance
door,
■metal or glass scrapers to clean the door seal,
■hard scouring pads and sponges,
■cleaning agents with high concentrations of alcohol.
Wash new sponge cloths thoroughly before use.
Self-cleaning surface in the cooking compartment
The back panel of the oven is coated with self-cleaning enamel.
It cleans itself while the oven is in operation. Sometimes, larger
splashes of food may not disappear until the oven has been
operated several times.
Notes
■Never treat the self-cleaning surface with oven cleaner. If
oven cleaner accidentally gets onto the rear wall, remove it
immediately with a sponge and plenty of water.
■Never use abrasive cleaning agents. You will scratch or
destroy the highly porous coating.
■Never clean the self-cleaning surface with a scouring pad.
■Light discolouration of the enamel does not affect self-
cleaning.
Cleaning the cooking compartment floor, ceiling and side
walls
Use a dish cloth and hot soapy water or a vinegar solution.
It is best to use oven cleaner if there are very heavy deposits of
dirt. Only use oven cleaner in a cold oven.

Tested for you in our cooking studio
Here you will find a selection of recipes and the ideal settings
for them. We will show you which type of heating and which
temperature or microwave power setting is best for your meal.
You can find information about suitable accessories and the
height at which they should be inserted. There are also tips
about ovenware and preparation methods.
Notes
■The values in the table always apply to food placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty. Only
preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do
so. Before using the appliance, remove all accessories from
the cooking compartment that you will not be using.
■Do not line the accessories with greaseproof paper until after
they have been preheated.
■The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They will
depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■Use the accessories supplied. Additional accessories may be
obtained from specialist retailers or from the after-sales
service.
■Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when taking
accessories or ovenware out of the cooking compartment.
Defrosting, heating up and cooking with the
microwave
The following tables provide you with numerous options and
settings for the microwave.
The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They may
vary according to the ovenware used, the quality, temperature
and consistency of the food.
Time ranges are often specified in the tables. Set the shortest
time first and then extend the time if necessary.
It may be that you have different quantities from those specified
in the tables. A rule of thumb can be applied:
Double the amount - almost twice the cooking time,
Half the amount - half the cooking time.
Insert the wire rack at level 1. Place the ovenware in the centre.
The food will then absorb the microwaves from all sides.
Defrost
Notes
■Place the frozen food in an open container on the wire rack.
■Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty
outer layers of roasts can be covered with small pieces of
aluminium foil. The foil must not touch the cooking
compartment walls. You can remove the foil half way through
the defrosting time.
■Turn or stir the food once or twice during the defrosting time.
Large pieces of food should be turned several times. Turn to
remove any liquid that results from defrosting.
■Leave defrosted items to stand at room temperature for a
further 10 to 60 minutes so that the temperature can
stabilise. The giblets can be removed from poultry at this
point.

Defrosting, heating up or cooking frozen food
Notes
■Take ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat up
more quickly and evenly in microwaveable ovenware. The
different components of the meal may not require the same
amount of time to heat up .
■Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is
piled high. You should therefore distribute the food so that it
is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs
should not be placed in layers on top of one another.
■Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for
your ovenware, use a plate or special microwave foil.
■Stir or turn the food 2 or 3 times during cooking.
■After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to
5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
■Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing
plates from the oven.
■This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will
require less seasoning.

Heating food
ã=Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated.
This means that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without
the usual steam bubbles rising to the surface. Even if the
container only vibrates a little, the hot liquid can suddenly boil
over and spatter. When heating liquids, always place a spoon in
the container. This will prevent delayed boiling.
Notes
■Take ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat up
more quickly and evenly in microwaveable ovenware. The
different components of the meal may not require the same
amount of time to heat up .
■Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for
your container, use a plate or special microwave foil.
■Stir or turn the food several times during the heating time.
Check the temperature.
■After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to
5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
■Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing
plates from the oven.
Cooking food
Notes
■Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is
piled high. You should therefore distribute the food so that it
is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs
should not be placed in layers on top of one another.
■Cook the food in ovenware with a lid. If you do not have a
suitable lid for your ovenware, use a plate or special
microwave foil.
■This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will
require less seasoning.
■After cooking, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to
5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
■Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing
plates from the oven.
