Microwave

Information about operation

General

• After switching off the appliance let

the food stand for a few minutes (see

Microwave Tables: Standing Time).

• Remove aluminium foil packaging,

metal containers, etc. before prepar-

ing the food.

Cooking

– If possible, cook food covered with

microwave safe material. Only

cook food uncovered, if a crust is

to be retained.

– Chilled or frozen foods require a

longer cooking time.

– Dishes containing sauce should be

stirred from time to time.

– Cook vegetables that have a firm

structure, such as carrots, peas or

cauliflower, in water.

– Turn larger pieces about halfway

through the cooking time.

– Cut vegetables in to similarly sized

pieces, if possible.

– Use flat, wide dishes.

Defrosting meat, poultry, fish

– Place the frozen, unwrapped food

on a small upturned plate with a

container underneath or on a de-

frosting rack or plastic sieve so

that the defrosting liquid can run

off.

– Turn the food after half of the de-

frosting time. If possible, divide, re-

move pieces that have started to

defrost.

Defrosting butter, portions of ga-

teau, quark

– Do not defrost completely in the

appliance but leave to defrost at

room temperature. This gives a

more even result. Remove any

metal or aluminium packaging or

parts before defrosting completely.

Defrosting fruit, vegetables

– Do not completely defrost fruit and

vegetables, which are to be further

prepared while still raw, in the ap-

pliance, but at room temperature.

– Fruit and vegetables that are to be

cooked, can be cooked directly

using a high microwave power,

without being defrosted.

Ready Meals

– Ready meals in metal packaging or

plastic trays with metal covers may

only be defrosted or heated in the

microwave if these are expressive-

ly designated as suitable for de-

frosting in the microwave.

– You must follow the manufactur-

er’s instructions printed on the

packaging (e.g. remove metal cov-

er and pierce plastic film).
