Practical Cooking Tips

Please keep to the recommended values in the cooking table

and the recipes. Keep an eye on the cooking process until you

have more experience.

The door of the microwave can be opened at any time. The

machine switches off automatically.

It will only continue operation when the door is closed and the

QUICK START/START button pressed again.

Foods taken directly from the refrigerator require a slightly longer

cooking time than those at room temperature.

The more compact a food is, the longer is the cooking time. For

example, a large piece of meat has to be cooked longer than

the same quantity of sliced meat. It is advisable to start cooking

sizeable quantities on maximum power and then to continue

cooking evenly on medium power.

Flat dishes cook faster than thick ones. Therefore it is advisable

to spread the food as thinly as possible. Thinner pieces, e.g.

chicken legs or ﬁ sh ﬁ llets should be placed towards the inside or

allowed to overlap.

Smaller quantities cook faster than large ones.

The following rule of thumb applies:

Double the quantity = almost double the time

Half the quantity = half the time

If you are not able to ﬁ nd a suitable time for a dish, the following

rule applies:

approx. 1 minute cooking time for each 100 g.

All dishes which are covered up on a normal cooker should also

be covered in the microwave oven.

A lid prevents the food from drying out. Suitable covers are an

inverted plate, parchment paper or microwave foil. Dishes which

are to be given a crust should not be covered when cooked.
