Warning:
Do not install the microwave above a cooker or any
other appliance generating heat. Installation in such
a location could cause damage to the appliance and
lead to a subsequent cancellation of the warranty
provisions.
• Remove packaging material and any protective
film on the surface of the casing.
Note:
Do not remove the light grey flimmer cover plate,
which is mounted in the cooking area to protect the
magnetron!
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 re-
quired. 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 re-
position the meatballs from the middle of the
cookware to the edge.
Use suitable cookware
• The ideal material for a microwave oven is micro-
wave-permeable, allowing the energy to penetrate
the container to heat the food.
Microwaves cannot permeate metal. Therefore,
metallic containers and metallic cookware
should not be used.
• When heating in the microwave, do not use
items made of recycling paper. This can contain
tiny metal fragements which generate sparks
and/or even cause 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 is intended to assist you in
selecting the correct tableware.
