Safety instructions on the heating of liquids
CAUTION!
Risk of injury!
There is a risk of burns.
When warming up liquids in the microwave, so-called “delayed
boiling” can occur, i.e. the liquid has reached boiling temper-
ature without beginning to bubble as boiling liquids normally
do. Movements, such as those generated when removing the
liquid from the microwave oven, can then cause a sudden reac-
tion, causing boiling liquid to spurt out.
Do not use tall, narrow containers.
Place a glass rod or ceramic rod in the container when heating
liquids in order to prevent delayed boiling. Wait a few moments
after heating the liquid then take hold of the container careful-
ly and stir the liquid before you take it out of the oven.

About microwaves
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves that have a warming effect
on the food in the internal cooking area. Microwaves heat all non-metallic objects.
Therefore, do not use any metallic objects in microwave mode. This heating effect
works better the higher the water content of the foodstuff.
To ensure optimal distribution of heat, let heated dishes stand for a minute or two in
the microwave oven after cooking.
The effect of microwaves on foodstuffs
Microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a depth of around 3 cm.
They heat up water, fat and sugar molecules (foodstuffs with a high water con-
tent are heated the most intensively).
This heat then works its way – slowly – throughout the food and has a defrost-
ing, heating and cooking effect on the food.
The cooking area and the air in the oven are not heated (the food container is
mainly heated by the hot food).
Each foodstuff requires a certain amount of energy to cook or defrost. As a rule
of thumb we can say: High output – short time or low output – long time.
Cooking and heating up in the microwave oven
19
Microwave oven
A microwave generator, known as the magnetron, generates the microwaves
and directs them into the cooking area.
The inner walls and the viewing window grid refl ect the microwaves inwards so
that they cannot escape from the cooking area.
The microwave output and the cooking time can be set in several steps.
After the cooking time has elapsed, or when the door is opened, the magnetron
turns off automatically.
Cooking and heating up in the microwave oven
Arrange the food in the oven correctly and place the thickest pieces on the out-
side so that it cooks properly.
Note the exact cooking or heating times.
Choose the shortest available cooking or heating time and extend it if necessary.
WARNING!
Risk of fi re due to very high temperatures.
Overcooked food can start to smoke or even catch fi re.
Supervise the cooking process at all times.
Cover food during cooking or heating with a cover that is suitable for the micro-
wave oven. Covering the food helps avoid splashes; furthermore the food is
more evenly cooked.
Foods such as chicken pieces or hamburgers should be turned once when cook-
ing in the microwave oven in order to speed up cooking. Larger pieces such as
joints or roasting chickens must be turned at least once.
It is also important to reposition food, e.g. if cooking meatballs: After half of the
cooking time has expired, the food should be repositioned from top to bottom
and from the inside to the outside.
After heating, mix the food thoroughly if possible to ensure even temperatures,
otherwise let the food stand for a short time.
Microwave-suitable materials
You can buy special dishes and accessories for your microwave oven. Look for mark-
ings such as “Microwave-safe” or “For the microwave”. You can also use your existing
dishes – if the material is suitable.
Cooking and heating up in the microwave oven
20
Suitable materials
Porcelain, glass ceramic and heatproof glass
Plastics which are heatproof and microwave-suitable (note: plastics may be-
come discoloured by foods or become warped by the heat)
• Baking paper.
Overview of suitable materials
The following list is a general guide to help you choose the correct cooking dishes:
Cooking dishes Microwave
Heatproof glass Yes
Non-heatproof glass No
Heatproof ceramic Yes
Microwave-suitable plastic dishes Yes
Baking paper Yes
Metal No
Aluminium foil/containers Limited suitability
Materials that are partially suitable
Stoneware and ceramics. Use clay containers only for defrosting and for short
cooking times because the air and water content of the material could cause the
clay to crack or break.
Dishes with gold or silver trim should only be used if they have been labelled
“microwave-safe” by the manufacturer.
Never use aluminium foil in large quantities. It can however be used e.g. in
small pieces to cover sensitive parts. You can also cover the corners of contain-
ers to prevent overcooking as the microwave energy is primarily concentrated
on the corners. Maintain a distance of 2.5 cm between the foil and the internal
wall.
Aluminium containers (e.g. those for ready-to-serve meals) are partially suita-
ble, but they must be at least 3 cm high to be used in the microwave oven.
Unsuitable materials
Metals, metal pots, pans and lids.
Cooking and heating up in the microwave oven
21
NOTICE!
Possible material damage!
Risk of damage to the appliance due to improper use of the
appliance.
Never use dishes with metal trimmings, metal dishes or cook-
ing grates in microwave mode as this may cause sparks that
could damage the appliance and/or the dishes.
Do not use crystal or lead crystal in microwave mode. It can
shatter, and coloured glass may become discoloured.
Do not use materials which are not resistant to heat. They may
warp or may even catch fi re.
In order to test whether a dish is suitable for use in the microwave oven,
put some water in it and place it in the microwave oven.
Set the cooking level control dial to the level (high, 700 W) and set the
time control dial to one minute. The appliance will now operate in micro-
wave mode for 1 minute. If you ascertain that the container is hotter than
the food, then it is not suitable for the microwave oven. Microwave-suita-
ble dishes are only warmed by the heat of the food.
WARNING!
Risk of fi re!
There is a risk of fi re due to improper use of the appliance.
As soon as you notice sparks, fl ashes or even fi re, immediately
turn the time control dial to 0 and pull out the mains plug. Re-
move the dish and check the cookware for metal parts. It may
not be suitable for microwave ovens.
