shortest indicated cooking time and extend the cooking procedure as necessary.

• Arrange the food carefully. Position the thickest areas on the external edge of the bowl.





EN-17

• Cover the food while it is cooking. Lids protect against spatters and also contribute
towards cooking/warming up the food evenly.

• During warming, the food should be turned, rearranged or stirred repeatedly, in order for
the temperature to be distributed evenly.

• Any existing germs in the food are only killed off if the temperature is sufficiently high
enough (> 70°C) and if the time used is sufficiently long enough (> 10 m in).

• Foods with a firm skin or shell, such as tomatoes, sausages, potatoes in the skin,
eggplants must be pierced or punctured repeatedly so that any developing steam can
escape and so that the food does not burst.

• Eggs without their shell may only be cooked in the microwave if the skin of the egg yoke
has been pierced repeatedly first. Otherwise, the egg yoke can squirt out with
excessive pressure after cooking.

• Rearrange layers of foods such as meat balls from top to the bottom and from the
middle to the outside edge.

15.2 Operating modes:

The unit is to be operated in various operating modes. The following list shows the
