will find information about ovenware and how to set the microwave.
Note: In the Expert Cooking Guide, you will find examples for defrosting,
heating and cooking with the microwave oven.
Notes regarding ovenware
Suitable ovenware Suitable dishes are heat-resistant ovenware made of glass,
glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic. These materials
allow microwaves to pass through. You can also use serving dishes. This saves
you having to transfer food from one dish to another. You should only use
ovenware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees
that they are suitable for use in microwaves.
Unsuitable ovenware Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow
microwaves to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution! Creation of sparks: metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at
least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the door. Sparks could
destroy the glass on the inside of the door.
Ovenware test Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The
following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule. Perform the
following test if you are unsure whether your ovenware is suitable for use in
the microwave:
1. Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to 1 minute. 2. Check the
temperature occasionally during that time. The ovenware should still be cold
or warm to the touch. The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks
are generated.

Care and cleaning
With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain its looks and
remain good order. We will explain here how you should care for and clean your
appliance correctly.
Risk of electric shock.!
Penetrating moisture may cause an electric shock. Do not use any high-pressure
cleaners or steam cleaners.
Risk of burns!
Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let the appliance
cool down.
Risk of serious damage to health!
Microwave energy may escape if the cooking compartment door or the door seal
is damaged. Never use the appliance if the cooking compartment door or the
door seal is damaged. Contact the after-sales service.
Notes Slight differences in colour on the front of the appliance are
caused by the use of different materials, such as glass, plastic and metal.
Shadows on the door panel which look like streaks, are caused by reflections
made by the oven light.
Unpleasant odours, e.g. after fish has been prepared, can be removed very
easily. Add a few drops of lemon juice to a cup of water. Place a spoon into
the container as well, to prevent delayed boiling. Heat the water for 1 to 2
minutes at maximum microwave power.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Which foods are affected? Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products that are heated to high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips,
toast, bread rolls, bread, fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).
General
Baking biscuits Oven chips
Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
Keep cooking times to a minimum. Cook meals until they are golden brown, but
not too dark. Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
Max. 200 °C in Top/bottom heating or max. 180 °C in 3D hot air or hot air
mode. Max. 190° C in Top/bottom heating or max. 170 °C in 3D hot air or hot
air mode. Egg white and egg yolk reduce the formation of acrylamide.
Distribute thinly and evenly over the baking tray. Cook at least 400 g at once
on a baking tray so that the chips do not dry out.

Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and roasting and how
to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the operating
instruction tables.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They absorb the heat
particularly well.
Open the oven door as infrequently as possible while you are cooking, baking
or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The oven is still warm.
This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can also place two loaf
tins next to each other.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the oven off 10 minutes before the
end of the cooking time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance complies with European Directive 2002/ 96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). The directive gives a framework
for the collection and recycling of old appliances, which is valid across the
EU.

Cooking tip / Procedure
A dark or dull baking sheet will result in a browner, crisper crust. For a
tender, light golden brown crust, use light, shiny metal bakeware. A dark or
dull baking sheet will result in a browner, crisper crust. Use a square baking
pan.
Ideal for ready-made mixes. Prepare according to package directions. Use with
fresh or frozen dinner rolls. A dark or dull baking pie pan will result in a
browner, crisper crust. Ideal for ready-made mixes. Prepare according to
package directions. Use dark or dull metal pan. Stir once.
Best for individual shortcakes. Use dark coated pan.
Cooking eggs in your microwave
Never cook eggs in the shell and never warm hardcooked eggs in the shell; they
can explode.
Always pierce yolk on whole eggs to keep them from bursting.
Cook eggs just until set; they will become tough if overcooked.
Cooking scrambled eggs is safe.
Cooking vegetables in your microwave
Vegetables should be washed just before cooking. Rarely is extra water needed.
If dense vegetables such as potatoes or carrots are being cooked, add about ¼
cup of water.
Small vegetables (sliced carrots, peas, lima beans, etc.) will cook faster
than larger vegetables.
Whole vegetables, such as potatoes, acorn squash or corn on the cob, should be
arranged in a circle on the turntable before cooking. They will cook more
evenly if turned over halfway through cooking.
Always place vegetables like asparagus and broccoli with the stem ends
pointing towards the edge of the dish and the tips toward the center.
When cooking cut vegetables, always cover the dish with a lid or vented
microwavable plastic wrap.
Whole, unpeeled vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, eggplant,
etc., should have their skin pricked in several locations before cooking to
prevent them from bursting.
For more even cooking, stir or rearrange whole vegetables halfway through the
cook time.
Most of the time, the denser the food, the longer the required standing time.
For example, a baked potato should stand for 5 minutes before serving, while a
dish of peas may be served immediately.
Heating food
Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is heated. This means
that the liquid reaches boiling temperature without the usual steam bubbles
rising to the surface. Even if the container only moves a little, the hot
liquid can suddenly boil over and spatter. When heating liquids, always place
a spoon in the container. This will prevent delayed boiling.

Cooking seafood in your microwave
Be sure to place fish on a microwave-safe roasting rack in a microwave-safe
dish. Be sure to always cook fish until it flakes easily with a fork. Use a
tight cover to steam
fish; a lighter cover of wax paper or paper towel provides less steaming. And be sure not to overcook fish; check it for doneness at a minimum cooking time before cooking longer.
