What can a microwave oven
do?
In the microwave oven, food is cooked,
reheated or defrosted quickly.
You can use the microwave in the
following ways:
–
Food can be defrosted, reheated or
cooked by entering a power level and
a time.
–
Deep-frozen, ready meals can be
defrosted and then reheated or
cooked.
– The microwave oven can also be
used for other tasks, e.g. for proving
dough, melting chocolate and butter,
dissolving gelatine or for bottling
small amounts of fruit, vegetables
and meat.
What functions does the
microwave oven have?
Microwave Solo mode
This function is suitable for defrosting,
reheating and cooking.
Grill
This is ideal for grilling thin cuts of
meat, e.g. bacon.
Combination mode (Microwave +
Grill)
This function is ideal for browning
dishes with toppings. The microwave
cooks the food, and the grill browns it.
Automatic programmes
You can choose from the following Au-
tomatic programmes:
– Five defrosting programmes
(N:Ad1toAd5),
–
Four cooking programmes for frozen
food
(N °:AC1toAC4),
–
Eight cooking programmes for fresh
food
(°:AC1toAC8).
These programmes rely on the weight
of the food being entered.
The weight of the food can be shown in
either grams (g) or in pounds (lb) (see
"Changing the settings").
