Safety tips

To minimize the risk of fire in the microwave: When heating food in plastic or paper containers, always keep an eye on the microwave when it is in operation, as these materials can catch fire.

When heating drinks in the microwave, bubbling may be delayed when the drink boils. Therefore, be careful when handling the container.

To avoid sudden simmering:

-If possible, place a glass rod in the fluid for as long as it is being heated.

-To avoid an unexpected reboiling, leave the fluid to stand in the microwave oven for ca. 20 seconds after being warmed up.

Puncture the skins of potatoes, sausages or similar. Otherwise, they could explode.

Proceed with caution when warming up fluids. Use only open containers, so that any air bubbles produced can escape.

Should you notice smoke, switch the appliance off or remove the plug from the socket and keep the door closed to suffocate any possible flames.

Eggs in their shells and hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in the microwave oven as they could explode, even on completion of the heating process. Food with thick skins, such as potatoes, whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must be pricked before cooking.

Before you begin

Basic principles of microwave cookery

Arrange the food with consideration.

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 fire.

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 re-arrange foods such as meatballs after half the cooking time. Turn them and move the meatballs from the middle of the cookware to the edge.

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. Therefore, metal containers and cookware should not be used.

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 fires.

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.
