Congratulations on acquiring your new microwave oven, which from now on will make your kitchen chores
considerably easier.
You will be pleasantly surprised by the kinds of things you can do with your combined microwave oven.
Not only can you use it for rapid defrosting or heating up of food, you can also prepare whole meals. The
combination of microwave, hot air convection and grill means that food can cook and brown at the same time,
and much faster, than by using the conventional method.
In our test kitchen our microwave team has gathered together a selection of the most delicious international
recipes which are quick and simple to prepare.
Be inspired by the recipes we have included and prepare your own favourite dishes in your microwave oven.
There are so many advantages to having a microwave oven which we are sure you will find exciting:
●Food can be prepared directly in the serving dishes, leaving less to wash up.
●Shorter cooking times and the use of little water and fat ensure that many vitamins, minerals and
characteristic flavours are preserved.
We advise you to read the cookery book guide and operating instructions carefully.
You will then easily understand how to use your oven.
Enjoy using your combined microwave oven and trying out the delicious recipes.
Your Microwave-Team.

cooking or reheating e.g. for casseroles, hot beverages,
vegetables etc.
80 P/70 P - (MEDIUM HIGH output = 840/735 W) used
for longer cooking of dense foods such as roast joints,
meat loaf and plated meals, also for sensitive didhes such
as sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the food will
cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.
60 P/50 P - (MEDIUM output = 630/525 W) for
dense foods which require a long cooking time
when cooked conventionally, e.g. beef casserole, it
is advisable to use this power setting to ensure the
meat will be tender.
40 P/30 P - (MEDIUM LOW output = 420/315 W
defrost setting) to defrost, select this power setting,
to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is
also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and
cooking egg custard.
20 P/10 P - (LOW output = 210/105 W) For gentle
defrosting, e.g. cream gateaux or pastry.
