General hints
Make sure that the oven door is closed properly when the appliance operates and keep it closed as much as possible during the cooking.
Use metal dishes to improve energy saving, but only when you use a non-microwave function.
When possible, do not preheat the oven before you put the food inside.
When the cooking duration is longer than 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to minimum 3 - 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time, depending on the duration of the cooking. The residual heat inside the oven will continue to cook.
Use the residual heat to warm up other dishes.

Microwave
General:
Caution! Do not let the appliance operate when there is no food in it.
After you deactivate the appliance, let the food stand for some minutes. Refer to the microwave cooking tables: standing time.
Remove the aluminium foil packaging, metal containers, etc. before you prepare the food.
It is not recommended to use more than one level when using the microwave mode.
Put the food on a plate on the bottom of the cavity if not specified differently.
If possible, always stir the food before serving.
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 a crust.
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 in their shells and snails, because they can burst. With fried eggs, pierce the yolks first.
Pierce skin or peel of potatoes, tomatoes, sausages and similar types of food with a fork several times before cooking so that the food does not burst.
For chilled or frozen food, set a longer cooking time.
Dishes which contain sauce must be stirred from time to time.
Turn larger pieces of food after half 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 with unglazed bottoms or small holes, e.g. on handles . Moisture going into the holes can cause the cookware to crack when it is heated.
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish:
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 run off.
Turn the food after half the defrosting time. If possible, divide and then remove the pieces that have started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau, quark:
Do not fully defrost in the appliance, but let them defrost completely at a room temperature. This gives a more even result. Remove all metal or aluminium packaging or parts before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables:
If fruit and vegetables should remain raw, do not defrost them fully in the appliance but let them defrost completely at a room temperature.
To cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first, you can use a higher microwave power.
Ready meals:
Ready meals in metal packaging or plastic trays with metal covers can only be defrosted or heated in the microwave if they are expressively designated as suitable for use in the microwave.
You must follow the manufacturer's instructions printed on the packaging (e.g. remove the metal cover and pierce the plastic film).

Tips for the microwave
Result Remedy
You cannot find details for the amount of food prepared.
Find details for similar type of food. Increase or shorten the length of the cooking time according to the following rule: double the amount - almost double the time, half the amount
- half the time.
Microwave Oven User Manual18
Result Remedy
The food after cooking is too dry. Set shorter cooking time or select lower microwave power
and cover with material suitable for use in the microwave.
The food is still not defrosted, hot or cooked after the end of cooking time .
Set longer cooking time or select higher microwave power. Note that taller dishes generally need longer cooking time. Stir or turn food during cooking.
After the end of cooking time the food is over­heated at the edges but is still not ready in the middle.
Next time select a lower power and a longer time. Stir liq­uids, such as soup, halfway through.
Other things to think about…
Food items have different shapes and qualities. They are prepared in different quantities. Because of this, the necessary time and power for defrosting, heating or cooking can vary. As a rough guide: double the quantity - almost
double the time.
The microwave creates the heat directly in the food. Because of this, all places cannot be heated at the same time. You must stir or turn the heated dishes, especially when preparing larger quantities of food.
The standing time is given in the tables. Let the food stand, in the appliance or outside it, so that the heat is distributed more evenly.
Adjust the power level according to food quantity. Using high power level with small amount of food can burn the food or generate arcing when you use the accessories.
You get better results for rice if you use flat, wide dishes.
