Warming
The warming and heating of food is a particular strength of the
microwave. Liquids and foods that are in the refrigerator can be
easily brought up to room temperature or the right temperature for
consumption without the need for many pots.
The heating times contained in the following table are only rough
guides as the time depends very much on the starting temperature
and the composition of the food. You are therefore advised to check
from time to time whether the dish is already hot enough.

Cooking
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 ma-
chine switches off automatically.
It will only continue operation when the door is closed and the
START/+30SEC./CONFIRM 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 sh 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 nd a suitable time for a dish, the following
rule applies:
approx. 1 minute cooking time for each 100 g.
