• In order to interrupt the cooking process, press the Stop.
Cancel button.
• Microwaves provide their full energy levels immediately.
Pre-heating is therefore not necessary.
• Never operate the microwave function when the oven is
empty.
• The microwave oven does not replace your traditional
cooker. It is used mainly for:
• defrosting deep-frozen food
• rapid warming/heating of food or drinks
• cooking meals
Information on Grilling and Combined Operation
• As heat radiation is used during grilling and combined
operation, please use only heat-resistant tableware.
• When food is only being grilled, metal or aluminium
tableware may also be used -but not during combined or
microwave operation.
• Do not place anything on top of the housing as this becomes
hot. Always leave the ventilation slits uncovered.
• Please use the grilling grid to move the food to be cooked
nearer to the heating element.
Suitable Microwave Tableware
• The ideal material for use in a microwave is transparent and
allows the microwave radiation to heat the food evenly.
• Microwaves are not able to penetrate metal, so that no metal
vessels or plates should be used.
• Do not use any paper dishes made of recycled material as
these may contain small amounts of metal, which may result
in sparks or fi res.
• Round/oval dishes and plates are more suitable than
rectangular ones as the food in the corners may overcook.

length of cooking depends on the quantity and consistency
of the contents. With a little practice you will soon learn to
estimate the cooking time.
NOTE:
cooking in the microwave oven is very much faster than
in a standard cooker. If you are not sure, set the cooking
time to low and continue cooking afterwards if necessary.
After the time has elapsed the oven switches itself off
and the word „END“ appears in the display. Then you can
remove the food.
