INTERFERENCE WITH OTHER APPLIANCES
► The operation of the microwave may cause interference on
your radio, television or similar appliances.
If such interference occurs, it can be reduced or corrected
by the following remedial measures:
– Clean the door and the seals of the microwave.
– Realign the aerial of your radio or television.
– Set up the microwave in a diff erent place to the
receiver.
– Move the microwave away from the receiver.
– Plug the microwave into another wall socket. The
microwave and the receiver should be connected to
diff erent circuits.
Before you begin
Basic principles of microwave cookery
■ Arrange the food in a sensible manner.
■ Place the thickest parts near the edges.
■ Pay attention to the cooking time. Select the shortest possible stated cooking
time and increase as required. Food that is cooked too long can begin to
smoke or catch fi re.
■ Cover the food during cooking with a lid suitable for microwave cookery.
The lid prevents splashing and helps in the even cooking of the food.
■ While cooking, turn the food in the microwave once so that items such as
chicken or hamburgers are cooked more quickly.
■ Large pieces of food, such as joints of meat, must be turned at least once.
■ Completely rearrange foods, such as meatballs, after half the cooking time.
Turn them and move the meatballs from the middle of the plate to the edge.
SMW 900 EDS B4

IE
Use suitable cookware
■ The ideal material for a microwave oven is microwave-permeable, allowing
the energy to penetrate the container to heat the food. Microwaves cannot
permeate metal. For this reason, metal containers and cookware should not
be used.
■ When using the microwave for heating, do not use products made of recycled
paper. These can contain minute fragments of metal, which can generate
sparks and/or fi res.
■ We recommend the use of round/oval cookware instead of square or oblong
containers, as food in corner areas tends to overcook. The following list
provides general hints to assist you in selecting the correct cookware.

WARNING – RISK OF FIRE!
► Never use the grill stand t or other metallic objects when you are using
the appliance in the microwave mode or in combination cooking mode
(the exception here is the turntable 3). Metals refl ect the microwave
radiation and this leads to the generation of sparks. This can cause a fi re
and irreparably damage the appliance!
