7. Before you start
Remove the microwave from the packaging. Remove all packaging material and check that all parts are
complete and undamaged. If you find anything missing or damaged, please contact the manufacturer.
7.1. How the microwave works
The microwave generates electromagnetic waves which create strong vibrations in the water molecules
contained in the food. These vibrations create heat. The heat is generated directly in the food and the
process is very gentle. The cookware is only heated indirectly by the food. Food with a high moisture
content heats quicker than dryer food.
Tips for getting good results from your food:
Use appropriate utensils and do not place food directly on the glass plate (2).
Cookware must not extend beyond the edge of the glass plate (2).
If possible, arrange the food so the thickest parts are at the edge.
In order to prevent the food drying out, select the shortest cooking time given to start with. You can
extend the time if required. If you select the time setting too high, food can overcook, begin to smoke
or even catch fire.
Special covers to cover food in the microwave are available from retail outlets. These prevent the
cooking space being contaminated by food splatters.
To achieve even cooking results, it makes sense to turn large pieces of food (e.g. joints) at least once.
The same applies to foods which can only be eaten if cooked through properly, such as poultry or
mince.
7.2. Suitable cookware
Microwave mode
Cookware made of heat-resistant glass or porcelain
Cookware made of heat-resistant plastic. Use oven bags with holes to prevent the build-up of
pressure.
Special plastic cookware for microwaves is available from retail outlets.
Cookware must not contain metal.
Grill mode
All heat-resistant cookware and containers suitable for a conventional oven. Plastic cookware must not
be used in grill mode.
The food to be grilled can be placed directly on the grill stands (13) which are placed on the glass
plate (2).
Combination microwave and grill mode
In combination mode, the microwave and grill are switched on alternately. The cookware must be
suitable for microwave use and also heat resistant. Plastic cookware is not suitable. Cookware must
not contain metal.
