ing Functions" (for selected models on-

ly).

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 func-

tion.

• 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 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 cooking

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 bottom glass (if applicable) is a

work space for heating food or liquids.

It is necessary for the operation of the

microwave oven.

ENGLISH 11

• 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 plas-

tic sieve so that the defrosting liquid

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 temperature.

This gives a more even result. Fully re-

move all metal or aluminium packaging

or parts 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:

• 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 different

quantities. Because of this, the neces-

sary time and power for defrosting,

heating or cooking can vary. As a rough

guide: double the quantity = almost

double the time.

• The microwave creates the heat directly

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 quantities 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.
