Microwave mode
CAUTION! Do not let the appliance operate when there
is no food in it.
• After you deactivate the appliance, let the food stand for some
minutes. Refer to the microwave cooking tables: standing time.
• Remove the aluminium foil packaging, metal containers, etc.
before you prepare the food for heating.
• It is not recommended to use more than one shelf level when
using the microwave mode.
• Put the food on a plate on the turn table if not specified
differently.
• If possible, always stir the food during and before serving.
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 a crust.
• Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too
high. The food can dry out, burn or catch fire in some cases.
• Do not use the appliance to cook eggs in their shells, because
they can burst. With fried eggs, pierce the yolks first.
• Pierce skin or peel potatoes, tomatoes, sausages and similar
types of food with a fork, several times before cooking so that
the food does not burst open.
• For chilled / frozen food, set a longer cooking time at a lower
power.
• Dishes which contain sauce must be stirred from time to time.
• Discoloration of the enamel or stainless steel has no effect on
the performance of the appliance.
• Use a deep pan for moist cakes. Fruit juices cause stains that
can be permanent.

• Turn larger pieces of food over after half 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 unglazed bottoms, or small holes, e.g. on
handles. Moisture going into the holes can cause the cookware
to crack and get very hot when it is cooked.
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish:
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned plate with
a container below it, or on a defrosting rack or plastic sieve so
that the defrosting liquid can run off.
• Turn the food after half the defrosting time. If possible, divide
and then remove the pieces that have started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau:
• Do not fully defrost in the appliance, but let them defrost
completely at room temperature. This gives a more even
result. Remove all metal or aluminium packaging or parts
before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables:
• If fruit and vegetables are not to be cooked completely, do not
defrost them fully in the appliance but let them defrost
completely at room temperature.
• To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first,
you can use a high mircowave power.
Ready Meals:
• Ready meals in metal packaging or plastic trays with metal
covers can only be defrosted or heated in the microwave if they
are expressly designated as suitable for use in the microwave.
• You must follow the manufacturer's instructions printed on the
packaging (e.g. remove metal cover and pierce the plastic film).
