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.
• Prick food with "skin" or "peel", such as
potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, 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.
• Vegetables that have a firm structure,
such as carrots, peas or cauliflower, must
be cooked in water.
• Turn larger pieces 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 small holes,
e. g. on handles or unglazed bottoms.
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 at room temperature.
This gives a more even result. Fully
remove all metal or aluminium
packaging or parts before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables:
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables,
which are to be further prepared while
raw, in the appliance. Let them defrost at
room temperature.
• You can use a higher microwave power
to cook fruit and vegetables without
defrosting them first.
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).
Look for similar food. Increase or shorten the
length of the cooking times according to the fol-
lowing rule: double the amount = almost double
the time, half the amount = half the time.
Set shorter cooking time or select lower micro-
wave power.
