ADVICE ON FOOD DEFROSTING
For your convenience, the timer displays the weight of the product being defrosted. For example, if you want to defrost 400 g of product, set the timer for 6 minutes.
Microwaves do not penetrate most foods by more than 4 cm. Follow the guidelines below to improve the defrosting efficiency:

• Stir the food during defrosting to obtain uniform heating.
• If the weight of food exceeds 0.5 kg it should be turned over at least twice.
• Defrosted foods should be cooked as soon as possible, repeated freezing should be avoided.

COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS FOOD PLACEMENT IN THE OVEN
Place larger and thicker pieces near the sides of the plate and thinner pieces in the center. Try to place the pieces uniformly, so that they do not cover each other.
COOKING TIME
Start cooking by choosing a shorter time period and increase it as necessary.
UNIFORM COOKING
Turn foods such as chicken, hamburgers or steaks at least once during the cooking process. Depending on the type of food it is recommended to stir it several times from the sides to the center.
AFTER COOKING
Upon completion of the cooking leave the food inside the oven for some time to let the cooking process end and for the food to cool down a little.
CHECKING THE DONENESS OF THE FOOD
Take reference to the color and density/hardness of the food. Steam should emerge from the whole surface of the dish, not only on the sides. Fowl bones should easily separate from the flesh. Fish should be non-transparent and easily broken apart with a fork.
SAFE USE OF PLASTIC PACKAGING
Some types of plastic utensils are not designed for preparing food with high fat and sugar content in microwave ovens.

MAINTENANCE

• Disconnect the power cable from the power socket.
• Wash the microwave oven regularly, remove all food residues, fat and other contaminants.
• Use only mild non-abrasive detergents, sponges or soft cloth to clean the door, housing, door glass and inner walls of the chamber. Do not use hard sponges and brushes with metallic particles. These can scratch the surface of the appliance. Non-observance of this requirement can cause a reduction of the unit’s service life.
• Do not remove the microwave emitter shield.
