USEFUL TIPS

MICROWAVE COOKING

Microwaves only penetrate food to a certain depth, so when cooking several items at the same time space them out as much as possible to allow the maximum surface area to be exposed to the microwaves.

Small pieces cook more quickly than large pieces: in order to ensure uniform cooking, cut the food items into pieces of equal size.

Most foods will continue to cook after microwave has finished cooking it. Therefore, always allow for standing time to complete the cooking.

Remove any twist ties from paper or plastic bags before placing them in the oven for microwave cooking.

Plastic film should be scored or perforated with a fork in order to relieve the pressure and prevent bursting due to the steam building up during the cooking process.

LIQUIDS

Liquids may overheat beyond boiling point without visibly bubbling. This could cause hot liquids to suddenly boil over. To prevent this, avoid using narrow-necked containers, stir the liquid before placing the container in the microwave oven and leave a teaspoon immersed in the container.

After heating, stir again before carefully removing the container from the microwave oven.

FROZEN FOOD

For best results, we recommend defrosting directly on the glass drip tray. If needed, it is possible to use a light-plastic container that is suitable for microwave. Boiled foods, stews and meat-based sauces will defrost better if stirred occasionally while defrosting. Separate the food items once they begin to defrost: the separated portions will defrost more quickly.

FOOD FOR INFANTS

When heating food or liquids in a baby food container or a baby bottle, always stir and check the temperature before serving. This will ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and avoid the risk of scalding or burns.

Ensure that the container lid or bottle teat are removed before heating.

CAKES AND BREAD

For cakes and bread products it is recommended to use the "Forced Air" function. Alternatively, in order to decrease the cooking times, the user can select "Forced Air + MW", with the microwave power being set to a value no greater than 160 W in order to maintain the food products soft and fragrant.

With the "Forced Air" function, use dark metal cake tins and always place them on the supply wire shelf.

Alternatively, the rectangular baking tray or other cookware suitable for oven use can be utilized to cook certain food items, such as biscuits or bread rolls.

If using the "Forced Air + MW" function, only use containers suitable for microwaves, and place them on the supplied wire shelf.

To check whether the item you are baking is done, insert a skewer into the centre: If it comes out clean, the cake or bread is cooked.

If using non-stick cake tins, do not butter the edges as the cake may not rise evenly around the edges.

If the item "swells" during baking, use a lower temperature next time and consider reducing the amount of liquid you add or stirring the mixture more gently.

If the base of the cake is soggy, lower the shelf and sprinkle the bottom of the cake with breadcrumbs or biscuit crumbs before adding the filling.

PIZZA

In order to obtain uniform cooking and a crispy pizza base in just a short time, it is recommended to use the "Crisp" function together with the special supplied accessory.

Alternatively, for larger pizzas it is possible to use the rectangular baking tray together with the "Forced Air" function: in this case, pre-heat the oven to the temperature of 200°C and distribute the mozzarella on the pizza two-thirds of the way through the cooking process.

MEAT AND FISH

In order to obtain perfect surface browning in just a short period of time, while maintaining the inside of the meat or fish soft and juicy, it is recommended to use functions that combine the forced air function with microwaves, like "Turbo grill + microwave" or "Forced Air + microwave".

In order to obtain the best possible cooking results, set the microwave power level to the value of 350 W.

CLEANING

Make sure that the appliance has cooled down before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning.

Never use steam cleaning equipment.

Do not use wire wool, abrasive scourers or abrasive/corrosive cleaning agents, as these could damage the surfaces of the appliance.

INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR SURFACES

  • Clean the surfaces with a damp microfibre cloth. If they are very dirty, add a few drops of pH-neutral detergent. Finish off with a dry cloth.
  • Clean the glass in the door with a suitable liquid detergent.
  • At regular intervals, or in case of spills, remove the turntable and its support to clean the bottom of the oven, removing all food residue.
  • Activate the "Self Clean" function for an optimum cleaning of the internal surfaces.

- The grill does not need to be cleaned as the intense heat burns away any dirt. Use this function on a regular basis.

ACCESSORIES

All accessories are dishwasher safe with the exception of the Crisp plate.

The Crisp plate should be cleaned using water and a mild detergent. For stubborn dirt, rub gently with a cloth. Always leave the Crisp plate to cool down before cleaning.

Is there anything that can prevent the signal reaching the appliance?

Check that the devices you have connected are not using up all the available bandwidth. Make sure that your WiFi-enabled devices do not exceed the maximum number permitted by the router.

How far should the router be from the oven?

Normally the WiFi signal is strong enough to cover a couple of rooms, but this very much depends on the material the walls are made of. You can check the signal strength by placing your smart device next to the appliance.

How can I check whether data is being transmitted?

After setting up the network, switch the power off, wait 20 seconds and then switch on the oven: Check that the app is showing the UI status of the appliance. Select a cycle or another option and check its status on the app.

Some settings take several seconds to appear in the app.

How can I change my Whirlpool account but keep my appliances connected?

You can create a new account, but remember to remove your appliances from your old account before moving them to your new one.

I changed my router – what do I need to do?
