Automatic programmes

Defrosting, Reheating, Cooking

Defrosting, reheating and cooking are carried out either with microwave power on its own or in combination with another function. See the "Automatic programme overview" for a list of available programmes.

Temperatures, power levels and cooking duration times for these programmes are stored in the electronics of your appliance. To use an automatic programme you simply have to enter e.g. how well cooked you want your meat to be and how well browned baked goods should be.

The following pages also contain tips of defrosting, reheating and cooking using microwave power.

To use an automatic programme

Select "Automatic" from the main

menu.

Follow the messages given in the

display until the programme starts.

Degree of doneness, browning level etc. are shown by a seven segment bar. The middle setting is displayed by a filled-out segment.

NH H H TTTTT H H HN

To change the setting move the filled-out segment to the left or right.

The start time can be delayed with some programmes.

If you have already started an automatic programme it can only be stopped by switching the appliance off.

Pay careful attention to what is shown in the display. For instance, you may be asked to enter the weight or number of items, to add liquid, turn or stir food.

Notes on using these programmes

When using the automatic programmes the recipes provided are designed as an orientation guide only. You can use them for other similar recipes, including those using different quantities.

The oven interior should be at room temperature before starting an automat ic programme. If it is too warm results could be impaired.

Some programmes require a pre-heating phase before food is placed in the oven. You will be prompted when to add the food by a message in the display.

For frozen food follow the instructions in the display.

Automatic programmes

Defrosting tips

When defrosting a large amount of food which has been wrapped in individual portions, enter a lower total weight than the weight of all the portions together. This will give a more even result. Example:

1.5 kg sliced steak packed into 3 individual 500 g portions

Enter weight as: 1000 g instead of 1500 g

Once an automatic programme has been run you can save it to the main menu as a user programme.

Automatic programmes

Slow cooking

This function is ideal for fine cuts of beef, pork, veal and lamb that need to be cooked carefully. By using a low temperature together with a long cooking duration meat will be cooked to perfection and be very tender. To start with the meat is heated to a high temperature very quickly to seal it and give it a brown crust all over. The meat then relaxes as it continues to cook at a lower temperature. The meat juices inside the joint start to circulate evenly throughout the meat to reach the outer layers. The advantage: Very tender and succulent results.

This automatic programme is located in the main menu and has a pre-set function, temperature and core temperature. The programmes are all listed under "Automatic programmes overview".

Cooking with low temperatures

Select "Automatic" from the main

menu.

Select "Slow cooking".

Follow the messages given in the

display until the programme starts.

If pre-heating leave the rack and glass tray in the oven.

Whilst the oven is pre-heating sear

meat thoroughly on the hob.

Then place the meat on the rack and

insert the food probe into a fleshy part of the joint.

^ Place the rack together with the glass

tray on the shelf level specified.

,The top heating element / grill

element in the oven is hot. Danger of burning.

^ Insert the plug of the food probe into

the socket until you feel it engage.

At the end of the programme

–

the appliance switches off automatically.

–

Automatic programmes

If the meat is not cooked to your satisfaction you can cook it for longer. Select the "Continue cooking" menu option.

Food will be kept warm for a certain period if it is not removed from the appliance at the end of the programme. "Keeping warm" will appear in the display.

Tips

Meat should be hung properly and sinews and excess fat removed. Bones should be removed.

For searing use a suitable cooking oil that can withstand high temperatures.

Do not cover meat during cooking.

Cooking takes between 2-4 hours depending on the size and amount of meat and on the degree of doneness and browning required.

Meat can be carved straight from the oven. It does not need to rest.

Useful tips

Because it has been cooked using low temperatures

meat can be kept warm quite

–

safely in the oven until it is served. This will not affect results in any way.

When the meat is ready to serve:

–

Dish it up on pre-heated plates and serve with very hot sauce or gravy to prevent it losing temperature.

Automatic programmes

Sabbath programme

This programme can be set to operate for 72 hours for the purposes of religious observance.

The oven does not start to heat up until after the door has been opened and closed.

The time of day does not show in the display during this period.

The interior lighting does not come on, even when the door is opened. However, if "Settings - lighting - on" is selected, then the interior lighting will remain on during the entire process.

Conventional heat is pre-programmed.

To use the Sabbath programme

Select Automatic from the main

menu.

Select the Sabbath programme.

The Sabbath programme cannot be started when the minute minder is being used.

Follow the instructions in the display.

Open the door.

Place the food in the oven.

^ Close the door.

The programme will start in 5 minutes.

A Sabbath programme that has been started cannot be changed, nor can it be saved under User programmes with its own name.

The process can only be stopped if the oven is switched off by touching the K sensor.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using the microwave function

Before defrosting, reheating and cooking

Place food (including frozen) in a

dish that is suitable for the microwave, and cover it.

Place the container centrally on the

glass tray and slide into the lowest shelf level.

The food probe can be used to monitor the temperature when reheating or cooking (see "Food probe" in the operating instructions supplied with the appliance).

Cooking using Microwave combined with another cooking function

Only use heat-resistant crockery that is suitable for the microwave

A lid is not required. It is essential not to cover food when using "MW+Grill", as the food will not brown.

After defrosting, reheating and cooking

Allow the food to stand at room temperature long enough to allow the temperature to spread evenly throughout the food.

After reheating food, especially

food for babies and small children, stir the food or shake the container and check that the temperature does not pose any danger. Double check after it has been left to stand. Danger of burning.

Be careful when removing

dishes from the microwave. With the exception of oven-proof stoneware, dishes are not warmed up by the microwaves, but rather through the transfer of heat from the food to the container. This may be considerable, making the container itself hot. Danger of burning.

Place the glass tray on shelf level 1.

Ready made meals in aluminium dishes must be placed directly onto the glass tray.

During the defrosting, reheating and cooking process

Turn or stir the food several times. Stir the food from the outside towards the middle, as food heats more quickly from the outside.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using the microwave function

Guidance on reheating food

Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated.

If in any doubt that a sufficiently high temperature has been reached, continue reheating for a little longer.

Ensure that food, such as meat, poultry and fish, are cooked for an appropriate length of time. The food probe can be used to monitor the temperature when reheating or cooking (see "Food probe" in the operating instructions supplied with the appliance).

It is important for food to reach the following core temperatures: Fish: at least 70 °C, Poultry: at least 85 °C

Food for babies and young children or the elderly must not be allowed to get too hot. We do not recommend heating or reheating foods or drinks for babies or young children in the microwave oven. Any decision to do this is the responsibility of the user, and should only be done with the utmost care. Pasteurised or sterilised cooked food should be gently heated using 450 watts, and tasted to make sure it is not too hot for a baby's palate before serving. When reheating other food or drink, heat to a high temperature and allow to cool to a suitable heat for eating. For formula milk, follow the manufacturer's instructions. The food probe can be used to monitor the temperature whilst reheating.

Always open glass jars Remove the lid from jars of baby food.

Remove the screw cap and the teat before heating up bottles of baby milk.

When reheating liquids place the boiling rod supplied into the cup or glass.

Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a microwave oven, even without the shell. The eggs can burst.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using the microwave function

Guidance on cooking

Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes and aubergines, should be pierced or cut in several places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.

Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should not be cooked using microwave power as this may lead to the eggs exploding, even after they have been taken out of the oven. Eggs can, however, be cooked using microwave power if you have purchased special containers designed for this purpose.

Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.

Defrosting, reheating and cooking using the microwave function

Useful tips

Reheating food Always cover food when reheating it, except when

Cooking vegetables Add a little water to vegetables which have been kept

stored. Vegetable cooking times depend on the texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegetables contain more water than vegetables which have been stored and usually cook more quickly.

These can be defrosted and reheated or cooked at the same time. Please follow instructions given on the packet.

Check that you remembered to restart the programme after interrupting a cooking process using microwave power.

Check that the correct duration was selected for the power level chosen when cooking or reheating in microwave mode. The lower the power level the longer the duration.

When cooked by microwaves, food begins to cook from the outside first, the inside of the food relying on the slower conduction of heat.

If food is cooked at a high power level it is possible that the heat may not have reached the centre of the food. Food may be warm in the middle but cool on the edge. When reheating food with different densities, such as plated meals, it is sensible to start with a low power level and lengthen the time required.

Baking

Function

ß Fan plus

Ideal for baking biscuits, sponges, choux pastry, puff pastry and filo pastry.

ß MW + Fan plus

Suitable for doughs which require longer baking, such as rubbed in and beaten mixtures, yeast recipes.

This shortens the baking time.

A power level of no more than 150 W is used throughout the baking duration.

ß Conventional heat

For baking traditional recipes, including sponges.

ß Intensive bake

Suitable for baking

– dishes that require a moist topping

and crisp base like pizza, quiche and flans.

–

cakes with a filling where the base has not been pre-baked, e.g. some cheesecakes.

Bakeware

For the best baking results make sure that you chose bakeware in a material suitable for the particular oven function you choose.

Fan plus, Intensive bake

Bakeware made of any heat-resistant material is suitable. Light-coloured, thin-walled, non-reflective metal tins can be used, but results may not be as good as with dark non-reflective tins.

MW+Fan plus

Only use heat-resistant bakeware that is suitable for the microwave (see "Suitable containers for microwaves" in the operating instructions supplied), e.g bakeware made of heat-resistant glass or ceramics, as microwaves can penetrate these materials.

Metal bakeware, on the other hand, reflects microwaves, which are then only able to access the cake from above. A longer baking time would be required. Furthermore, metal baking tins can also cause sparking.

To check for suitability, place the tin on the glass tray, and make sure it does not touch the interior walls. If sparking continues, do not use this tin again in microwave combination mode.

Baking

Conventional heat

The following types of bakeware are suitable: matt, dark-coloured baking tins made of black tin; dark-coloured enamel; tins made from light-coloured tin which have been coloured black; dishes made from heat-resistant glass; coated tins.

Shelf level

Fan plus

Cakes baked in cake tins

Biscuits, tray bakes

Baking on two levels at once (depending on the depth of the items to be baked)

Shelf level 1

Shelf level 2

Shelf levels 1 and 3 or Shelf levels 2 and 3

Temperature

The temperature setting on Fan plus is lower than on Conventional heat.

Note when using recipes from older cookery books

German standard DIN 44547 has been replaced by European standard EN 60350. A new appendix to the regulations advises that the oven temperature be set at 10°C lower than that given in the recipe. The baking duration does not change.

MW+Fan plus

Slide the glass tray onto shelf level 1, and place the baking container on it.

Intensive bake

Use shelf level 1.

If the base is over-cooked use a higher shelf level next time.

Conventional heat

Use shelf level 1 or 2.

Baking

Tips on baking

You can programme in the cooking duration yourself. When baking, the oven should not be set to start a long time off. Otherwise the cake mixture or dough will dry out, and the raising agents will lose their effectiveness.

Place cakes being baked in loaf tins with the longer side across the width of the oven for optimum heat distribution and even results.

Eating food which has been cooked correctly is important for good health.

Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc. until they are golden brown. Do not overcook them.

Even baking and browning is achieved when baking cakes, pastries, frozen foods such as chips, croquettes, pizza, baguettes etc. by

selecting the lowest temperature

–

given in the recipe/cooking instructions on the packaging. Do not set a temperature higher than that recommended. Increasing the temperature may reduce the cooking time, but will lead to uneven browning, and unsatisfactory cooking results.

– Check if the food is cooked at the

end of the shortest time quoted. To check if a cake is ready, insert a wooden skewer into the centre. It is ready if the skewer comes out clean, without dough or crumbs sticking to it.

–

Place chips, croquettes and similar types of food on baking parchment.

Baking

Cakes or biscuits are not properly cooked after the time recommended in the chart.

Cakes or biscuits are unevenly browned

Check that the correct temperature has been set.

Check whether there has been a change to the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a moister mix which would take longer to cook.

Check the material and colour of the baking tins being used. Bright shiny tins are not very suitable. These reflect heat, making more difficult for the heat to reach the food. The food will not cook through properly. Try using a different tin next time.

There are always likely to be small differences in the level of browning. If the difference is very noticeable, check whether the temperature setting is high enough, and also the material and colour of the baking tins. Bright shiny tins are not very suitable. Try using a different tin next time. These reflect heat, which means that the heat does not penetrate to the food effectively, resulting in uneven or poor browning.
