7. Before you start

Remove the microwave from the packaging. Remove all packaging material and check that all parts are complete and undamaged. If you find anything missing or damaged, please contact the manufacturer.

7.1. How the microwave works

The microwave generates electromagnetic waves which create strong vibrations in the water molecules contained in the food. These vibrations create heat. The heat is generated directly in the food and the process is very gentle. The cookware is only heated indirectly by the food. Food with a high moisture content heats quicker than dryer food.

Tips for getting good results from your food:

Use appropriate utensils and do not place food directly on the glass plate (2).
◆ Cookware must not extend beyond the edge of the glass plate (2).
If possible, arrange the food so the thickest parts are at the edge.
In order to prevent the food drying out, select the shortest cooking time given to start with. You can extend the time if required. If you select the time setting too high, food can overcook, begin to smoke or even catch fire.
- Special covers to cover food in the microwave are available from retail outlets. These prevent the cooking space being contaminated by food splatters.
To achieve even cooking results, it makes sense to turn large pieces of food (e.g. joints) at least once. The same applies to foods which can only be eaten if cooked through properly, such as poultry or mince.

7.2. Suitable cookware

Microwave mode

◆ Cookware made of heat-resistant glass or porcelain
- Cookware made of heat-resistant plastic. Use oven bags with holes to prevent the build-up of pressure.
- Special plastic cookware for microwaves is available from retail outlets.
◆ Cookware must not contain metal.

Grill mode

All heat-resistant cookware and containers suitable for a conventional oven. Plastic cookware must not be used in grill mode.
The food to be grilled can be placed directly on the grill stands (13) which are placed on the glass plate (2).

Combination microwave and grill mode

In combination mode, the microwave and grill are switched on alternately. The cookware must be suitable for microwave use and also heat resistant. Plastic cookware is not suitable. Cookware must not contain metal.

Tips for good grilling results

SILVERCREST SMW 800 D3 - Tips for good grilling results - 1

Before grilling, pre-heat the microwave for around 10 minutes using the grill function.

The table below sets out the recommended quantities and processing times for various foods. The foods listed below should be no more than 2 cm thick to guarantee cooking in the time specified. For pieces of meat which are thicker than 2 cm, the cooking time on each side should be extended accordingly.

We recommend turning the food only once to prevent the meat drying out.

9.4. Starting an automatic programme

SILVERCREST SMW 800 D3 - Starting an automatic programme - 1

For automatic programmes A-04 (chicken), A-07 (meat/joints) and A-08 (meat kebabs), the food should be turned after around 2/3 of the cooking time in order to achieve even results. The microwave beeps twice to indicate the point at which the food should be turned. The display (1) also shows "turn".

The size, shape and specific types of food have a decisive influence on cooking results. If your food is not yet cooked through when the automatic programme is finished, we recommend continuing to cook using the microwave quick start programme. If the automatic programme also uses the grill function, the grill function can also be used for additional cooking. Please note that the level of browning of the dishes will also increase.
