6.2 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 pre-
pare the food.
Cooking:
• If possible, cook food covered with ma-
terial 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
8www.electrolux.com

can explode. With fried eggs, pierce the
yolks first.
• Prick food with "skin" or "peel", such as
potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with a
fork several times before cooking so
that the food does not explode.
• For chilled or frozen food, set a longer
cooking 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 cook-
ing time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar-
sized pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porce-
lain, ceramic or earthenware with small
holes, e. g. on handles or unglazed bot-
toms. Moisture 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 necessa-
ry 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 container.
• Turn the food after half of the defrosting
time. If possible, divide and then re-
move the pieces that started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau,
quark:
• Do not fully defrost the food in the ap-
pliance, but let it defrost at room tem-
perature. This gives a more even result.
Fully remove all metal or aluminium
packaging before defrosting.
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 de-
frosting them first.
Ready meals:
• You can prepare ready meals in the ap-
pliance only if their packaging is suitable
for microwave use.
• You must follow the manufacturer's in-
structions printed on the packaging
(e.g. remove the metal cover and pierce
the plastic film).

10. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
10.1 Tips for the microwave
Problem Remedy
You cannot find details for the
amount of food prepared.
Look for a similar food. Increase or shorten
the length of the cooking times according to
the following rule: Double the amount = al-
most double the time, Half the amount =
half the time
The food got too dry. Set shorter cooking time or select lower mi-
crowave power.
The food is not defrosted, hot or
cooked after the time came to an
end.
Set longer cooking time or set higher power.
Note that large dishes need longer time.
After the cooking time comes to
an end, the food is overheated at
the edge but is still not ready in the
middle.
Next time set a lower power and a longer
time. Stir liquids halfway through, e.g. soup.
To get better results for rice use a flat,
wide dish.
The power setting and time in the
cooking tables are guidelines only.
They depend on the recipe, quali-
ty, quantity and temperature of
the used ingredients.
10.2 Defrosting
Always defrost roast with the fat side
down.
Do not defrost covered meat because this
may cause cooking instead of defrosting.
Always defrost whole poultry breast side
down.
When you hear an acoustic signal, turn
over or rearrange the food.
If there are any icy areas after defrosting,
allow the food to stand for 5 – 60 mi-
nutes.
