7. MICROWAVE MODE

7.1 Microwave

Information about operation

General:

• After you deactivate the appliance, let

the food stand for some minutes (refer

to “Microwave Tables: standing

time”).

• Remove the aluminium foil packaging,

metal containers, etc. before you pre-

pare the food.

Cooking:

• Do not use the baking tray or deep

pan (if applicable) with the Microwave

function.

• If possible, cook food covered with

material suitable for use in the micro-

wave. 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 places.

• Do not use the appliance to cook

eggs in their shells and snails, because

they can burst. 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 burst.

• 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 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

bottoms. Moisture going into the

holes can cause the cookware to crack

when it is heated.

• The bottom glass (if applicable) is a

work space for heating food or liquids.

It is necessary for the operation of the

microwave oven.

• Always put the glass stick in the con-

tainer when you heat liquids, in order

to prevent overcooking or splashing.

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 liq-

uid can run off.

• Turn the food after half the defrosting

time. If possible, divide and then re-

move the pieces that have started to

defrost.

Defrosting butter, portions of gateau,

quark:

• Do not fully defrost in the appliance,

but let them defrost at room tempera-

ture. This gives a more even result.

Fully remove all metal or aluminium

packaging or parts before defrosting.

Defrosting fruit, vegetables:

• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegeta-

bles, which are to be further prepared

while raw, in the appliance. Let them

defrost at room temperature.

• You can use a higher microwave pow-

er to cook fruit and vegetables without

defrosting them first.

Ready meals:

• Ready meals in metal packaging or

plastic trays with metal covers can only

be defrosted or heated in the micro-

wave if they are expressively designa-

ted as suitable for use in the micro-

wave.

• You must follow the manufacturer's in-

structions printed on the packaging (e.

g. remove the metal cover and pierce

the plastic film).

Other things to think about…

• Food items have different shapes and

qualities. They are prepared in differ-

ent quantities. Because of this, the

necessary time and power for defrost-

ing, heating or cooking can vary. As a

rough guide: double the quantity =

almost double the time.

• The microwave creates the heat di-

rectly in the food. Because of this, all

places cannot be heated at the same

time. You must stir or turn the heated

dishes, especially with larger quanti-

ties of food.

•The standing time is given in the ta-

bles. Let the food stand, in the appli-

ance or outside it, so that the heat is

distributed more equally.

• You get better results for rice if you

use flat, wide dishes.
