• Do not spill cold water or other liquids on the glassware because a sudden temperature drop may cause immediate breakage of the glass. Broken glass pieces may be extremely sharp and difficult to locate.
• Do not place hot glassware on a wet or cool surface, directly on countertop or metal surface, or in sink; or handle hot glassware with wet cloth.
• Do not use or repair any glassware that is chipped, cracked or severely scratched.
• Do not drop or hit glassware against a hard object or strike utensils against it.
• Do not heat empty or nearly empty glassware in microwave, or overheat oil or butter in microwave (use minimum amount of cooking time).
Allow hot glassware to cool on a cooling rack, a potholder or a dry cloth. Make sure that the glassware is cool enough before washing, refrigerating or freezing. Avoid handling hot glassware (including ware with silicone gripping surfaces) without dry potholders. Avoid microwave misuse (i.e. running the oven without any load or small load).

10. HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 Cooking recommendations

The temperature and cooking times in the tables are guidelines only. They depend on the recipes and the quality and quantity of the ingredients used. Your appliance may bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. The hints below show recommended settings for temperature, cooking time and shelf position for specific types of the food. If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the similar one. For more cooking recommendations refer to cooking tables on our website. To find the Cooking Hints, check the PNC number on the rating plate on the front frame of the appliance cavity.

10.2 Microwave recommendations

Let's cook!
22/36
HINTS AND TIPS
Place the food on the microwave bottom glass plate on the bottom of the cavity. Place the food on a plate on the bottom of the cavity. Turn or stir the food halfway through the defrosting and cooking time. Stir liquid dishes from time to time. Stir the food before serving. Cover the food for cooking and reheating. Put the spoon to the bottle or glass when heating drinks to ensure better heat distribution. Put the food into the appliance without packaging. The packaged ready meals can be put into the appliance only when the packaging is microwave safe (check information on the packaging).
Microwave cooking Cook food covered. If you want to keep a crust cook food without a cover. Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too high. The food can dry out, burn or cause fire. Do not use the appliance to cook eggs or snails in their shells, because they can burst. Pierce the yolk of fried egg before reheating it. Pierce food with skin or peel several times before cooking. Cut vegetables into similar-sized pieces. After you turn off the appliance, take the food out and let it stand for a few minutes to allow the heat distribute evenly.
Microwave defrosting 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 leak out. Remove defrosted pieces subsequently. To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first, you can use a higher microwave power.

10.3 Microwave suitable cookware and materials

For the microwave use only suitable cookware and materials. Use below table as a reference. Check the cookware / material specification before use.

14. ENERGY EFFICIENCY

14.1 Energy saving

The appliance has features which help you save energy during everyday cooking.
Make sure that the appliance door is closed when the appliance operates. Do not open the appliance door too often during cooking. Keep the door gasket clean and make sure it is well fixed in its position. Use metal cookware to improve energy saving (only when you use a non-microwave function). When possible, do not preheat the appliance before cooking. Keep breaks between baking as short as possible when you prepare a few dishes at one time.
Cooking with fan
When possible, use the cooking functions with fan to save energy.
Residual heat
If a programme with Duration is activated and the cooking time is longer than 30 min, the heating elements automatically turn off earlier in some appliance functions.
30/36
MENU STRUCTURE
The fan and lamp continue to operate. When you turn off the appliance, the display shows the residual heat. You can use that heat to keep the food warm. When the cooking duration is longer than 30 min, reduce the appliance temperature to minimum 3 - 10 min before the end of cooking. The residual heat inside the appliance will continue to cook. Use the residual heat to warm up other dishes.
Keep food warm
Choose the lowest possible temperature setting to use residual heat and keep a meal warm. The residual heat indicator or temperature appears on the display.
Cooking with the lamp off
Turn off the lamp during cooking. Turn it on only when you need it.
