5. DAILY USE

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
5.1 General information about
using the appliance
• After you deactivate the appliance, let
the food stand for some minutes.
• Remove the aluminium foil packaging,
metal containers, etc. before you
prepare the food.
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 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 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
cooking time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar-
sized pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of
porcelain, ceramic or earthenware
Suitable cookware and materials
Cookware / Material
Ovenproof glass and porcelain (with no
metal components, e. g. Pyrex, heat-
proof glass)
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 glass cooking tray is a work space
for heating food or liquids. It is
necessary 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 remove the pieces that
started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau,
quark
• Do not fully defrost the food in the
appliance, but let it defrost at room
temperature. 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 defrosting them first.
Ready meals
• You can prepare ready meals in the
appliance only if their packaging is
suitable for microwave use.
• You must follow the manufacturer's
instructions printed on the packaging
(e.g. remove the metal cover and
pierce the plastic film).
