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 similarsized pieces.

•Remove all the parts and additional packaging from the microwave.

•Clean the appliance before first use.

•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 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.

•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.
