Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The energy makes it possible to
cook or warm up dishes without aecting the form or colour.
You can use your microwave for the following:
• Microwave setting
• Combi functions
Cooking principle
1� The microwaves which the microwavegenerates are
spread evenly by a distribution system� This cooks
the dish evenly�
2�
The microwaves are absorbed to a depth of
approximately 2�5 cm by the dish� Cooking then
continues, because the heat is spread in the dish�
3�
The cooking times vary and depend on the dish you
use and the properties of the food:
•
Quantity and density
•
Moisture content
•
Starting temperature (whether or not it is cooled)
Important
The dish is cooked from the inside out by means of heat distribution� The cooking continues
even when you take the dish from the oven�
Standing times in recipes and in this book must therefore be adhered to, in order to ensure
•
Even heating into the middle of the dish;
•
Equal temperatures in all parts of the dish�
