Using the microwave
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The energy makes it possible to cook or warm up dishes without affecting the form or colour.
EN 23
USE
EN 24
The microwave is used for: · the microwave function. · the combi functions.
Cooking principle 1. The microwaves generated by the microwave are spread
evenly by
a distribution system. This cooks the dish evenly. 2. The food absorbs the
microwaves to a depth of approximately 2.5 cm.
Cooking then continues, because the heat is spread in the dish. 3. The cooking
times vary and depend on the dish you use and the
properties of the food: Quantity and density Moisture content Starting
temperature (whether or not it is cooled)
Important The dish is cooked from the inside out by means of heat
distribution. The cooking continues even when you take the dish from the oven.
Standing times in recipes and in this book should therefore be adhered to, in
order to ensure: · Even heating into the middle of the dish; · Equal
temperatures in all parts of the dish.
Power 1000 W

Use
· For quick heating of drinks, water and dishes containing a lot of moisture.
· For cooking fresh or frozen vegetables.
· For prepairing and heating of drinks and dishes.
· For melting chocolate. · For cooking fish and seafood. · For heating on two
