Cooking
The door of the microwave can be opened at any time. The
machine switches off automatically.
This only starts to work again when the door is closed and the
START/QUICK START button is pressed a second time.
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.

no
Flat dishes cook faster than thick ones. Therefore it is advisable
no
to spread the food as thinly as possible. Thinner pieces, e.g.
no
chicken legs or fi sh fi llets should be placed towards the inside or
no
allowed to overlap.
Smaller quantities cook faster than large ones.
The following rule of thumb applies:
Double the quantity = almost double the time
yes
Half the quantity = half the time
yes
If you are not able to fi nd a suitable time for a dish, the following
yes
rule applies:
approx. 1 minute cooking time for each 100 g.
All dishes which are covered up on a normal cooker should also
no
be covered in the microwave oven.
no
A lid prevents the food from drying out. Suitable covers are an
no
inverted plate, parchment paper or microwave foil. Dishes which
are to be given a crust should not be covered when cooked.
