6.2 General information about
using the appliance
General:
• 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 ma-
.
terial 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 similarsized pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porcelain, 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 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
ENGLISH 9
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).
