Causes of damage

General information

Caution!

■ Water in the hot cooking compartment: Never pour water into the hot cooking compartment. This will cause steam. The temperature change can cause damage.
■ Moist food: Do not store moist food in the closed cooking compartment for long periods. Do not use the appliance to store food. This can lead to corrosion.
- Condensation in the cooking compartment: Condensation may appear on the door window, interior walls and floor. This is normal and does not adversely affect microwave operation. To prevent corrosion, wipe off the condensation every time you cook.
■ Cooling with the appliance door open: Only leave the cooking compartment to cool with the door closed. Do not trap anything in the appliance door. Even if the door is only slightly ajar, the fronts of adjacent units may be damaged over time.
■ Heavily soiled seal: If the seal is very dirty, the appliance door will no longer close properly during operation. The fronts of adjacent units could be damaged. Always keep the seal clean.
■ Using the appliance door for standing on or placing objects on: Do not stand or place anything on the open appliance door. Do not place ovenware or accessories on the appliance door.
■ Transporting the appliance: Do not carry or hold the appliance by the door handle. The door handle cannot support the weight of the appliance and could break.

Microwave

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 irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.
- Operating the microwave without food: – Operating the appliance without food in the cooking compartment may lead to overloading. Never switch on the appliance unless there is food in the cooking compartment. An exception to this rule is a short crockery test (see the section "Microwave, suitable crockery").
- Microwave popcorn: – Never set the microwave power too high. The door panel may crack if overloaded. Use a power setting no higher than 600 watts. Always place the popcorn bag on a glass plate.
- Foil containers: – Do not use foil containers in the appliance. They damage the appliance by producing sparks.
- Turntable drive: – Liquid that has boiled over must not be allowed to run through the turntable drive and into the interior of the appliance. Monitor the cooking process. Choose a relatively short cooking time to begin with, and extend the cooking time as required.
- Turntable: – Never use the microwave oven without the turntable.

Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

■ Only preheat the appliance if this is specified in the recipe or in the tables in the operating instructions.
■ Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins for baking. These absorb the heat particularly well.
- Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible when the appliance is in use.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking compartment is still warm. This reduces the baking time for the second cake. You can place two cake tins next to each other in the cooking compartment.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the appliance 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 is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE).

Microwave

You can use the microwave to cook, heat up or defrost food quickly. You can use the microwave on its own or in combination with the grill.

To ensure optimum use of the microwave, please observe the notes on cookware and familiarise yourself with the data in the application tables at the end of the instruction manual.

Cookware

Not all cookware is microwavable. So that your food is heated and the appliance is not damaged, only use microwavable cookware.

Suitable cookware

Heat-resistant cookware made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic are suitable. 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 cookware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees that they are suitable for use in microwaves.

Unsuitable cookware

Metal cookware 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 cooking compartment walls and the inside of the door. Sparks can irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.

Cookware test

Never switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The short cookware test is the only exception to this rule.

Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your cookware is suitable for use in the microwave.

1. Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for 12 to 1 minute.
2. Check the temperature of the cookware during this time.
   The cookware should remain cold or warm to the touch.

The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are generated.

In this case, stop the test.

Warning – Risk of burns!

The accessible parts become very hot when in operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance.

Tested for you in our cooking studio

In the tables below, you will find a selection of dishes and the ideal settings for them. They tell you which heating function and which temperature or microwave power setting is best suited to your dish. You will find information on suitable cooking accessories and the position at which they should be placed in the oven. We have listed some tips with regard to cookware and preparation methods.

Notes

The values in the tables always apply to food placed in the cooking compartment when it is cold and empty. Only preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do so. Before using the appliance, remove any accessories that you will not be using from the cooking compartment.
- Do not line the accessories with greaseproof paper until after they have been preheated.
■ The times specified in the tables are intended as a guide only. They will depend on the quality and composition of the food.
■ Use the accessories provided. Additional accessories may be obtained as optional accessories from specialist retailers or from our after-sales service.
■ Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when taking hot accessories or cookware out of the cooking compartment.

Defrosting, heating up and cooking with the microwave

The following tables provide you with numerous options and settings for the microwave.

The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They may vary according to the ovenware used, the quality, temperature and consistency of the food.

Time ranges are often specified in the tables. Set the shortest time first and then extend the time if necessary.

It may be that you have different quantities from those specified in the tables. A rule of thumb can be applied: Double amount - just under double the cooking time, half amount - half the cooking time.

Place the ovenware in the centre of the lower wire rack. The food will then absorb the microwaves from all sides.

Defrosting

Notes

• Place the frozen food in an open container on the wire rack.
  Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with small pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not touch the cooking compartment walls. You can remove the foil half way through the defrosting time.

■ Turn or stir the food once or twice during the defrosting time. Large pieces of food should be turned several times. When turning, remove any liquid that has resulted from defrosting.
Leave defrosted items to stand at room temperature for a further 10 to 60 minutes so that the temperature can stabilise. The giblets can be removed from poultry at this point.

Defrosting, heating up or cooking frozen food

Notes

Take ready meals out of the packaging. They will heat up more quickly and evenly in microwaveable ovenware. The different components of the meal may not require the same amount of time to heat up

- Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is piled high. You should therefore distribute the food so that it is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs should not be placed in layers on top of one another.

■ Always cover the food. If you do not have a suitable cover for your ovenware, use a plate or special microwave foil.

■ Stir or turn the food 2 or 3 times during cooking.

■ After heating, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to 5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.

■ Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing plates from the oven.

This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will require less seasoning.

Heating food

Warning – 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.

Glass with a black X mark symbol crossed out, representing an incorrect or uncorrected warning (no text or symbols present)

Caution!

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 irreparably damage the glass on the inside of the door.

Cooking food

Notes

- Food which lies flat will cook more quickly than food which is piled high. You should therefore distribute the food so that it is as flat as possible in the ovenware. Different foodstuffs should not be placed in layers on top of one another.

• Cook the food in ovenware with a lid. If you do not have a suitable lid for your ovenware, use a plate or special microwave foil.
  This will help the food retain its own distinct taste, so it will require less seasoning.
  ■ After cooking, allow the food to stand for a further 2 to 5 minutes so that it can achieve an even temperature.
  ■ Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when removing plates from the oven.

Microwave tips

You cannot find any information about the settings for the quantity of food you have prepared.	Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of thumb:Double the amount = almost double the cooking timeHalf the amount = half the cooking time
The food has become too dry. Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower microwave power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.
When the time has elapsed, the food is not defrosted, hot or cooked.	Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high require longer times.
When the time has elapsed, the food is overheated at the edge but not done in the middle.	Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower microwave power setting and a longer cooking time.
After defrosting, the poultry or meat is defrosted on the outside but not defrosted in the middle.	Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you are defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.

Cakes and pastries

About the tables

Notes

■ The times given apply to food placed in a cold oven.
The temperature and baking time depend on the consistency and amount of the mixture. This is why temperature ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the lower temperature and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time, since a lower temperature results in more even browning.

■ Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section following the tables.
■ Always place the cake tin in the centre of the lower wire rack.

Baking tips

You want to bake according to your own recipe.	Use similar items in the baking tables as a guide.
Use baking tins made of silicone, glass, plastic or ceramic materials.	The baking tin must be heat-resistant up to 250 °C. Cakes in these baking tins will be less brown. When using the microwave, the cooking time will be shorter than the time shown in the table.
How to establish whether sponge cake is baked through.	Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, poke the cake with a cocktail stick at its highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
The cake collapses.	Use less liquid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees lower and extend the baking time. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
The cake has risen in the middle but is lower around the edge.	Only grease the base of the springform cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
The cake is too dark.	Select a lower temperature and bake the cake for a little longer.
The cake is too dry.	When it is done, make small holes in the cake using a toothpick. Then drizzle fruit juice or an alcoholic beverage over it. Next time, select a temperature 10 degrees higher and reduce the baking time.
The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake) looks good, but is soggy on the inside (sticky, streaked with water).	Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. When baking cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first, cover with almonds or bread crumbs and then add the top-ping. Please follow the recipe and follow the baking times.
The cake cannot be turned out of the dish when it is turned upside down.	After baking, allow the cake to cool for a further 5 to 10 minutes, then it will be easier to turn out of the tin. If it still sticks, carefully loosen the cake around the edges using a knife. Turn the cake tin upside down again and cover it several times with a cold, wet cloth. Next time, grease the tin well and sprinkle some bread crumbs into it.
You have measured the temperature of the oven using your own meat thermometer and found there is a discrepancy.	The oven temperature is measured by the manufacturer after a specified period of time using a test rack in the centre of the cooking compartment. Ovenware and accessories affect the temperature measurement, so there will always be some discrepancy when you measure the temperature yourself.
Sparks are generated between the tin and the wire rack.	Check that the tin is clean on the outside. Change the position of the tin in the cooking compartment. If this does not help, continue baking but without the microwave. The baking time will then be longer.

Roasting and grilling

About the tables

The temperature and roasting time depend on the type and amount of food being cooked. This is why temperature ranges are given in the tables. Begin with the lower temperature and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time,

For more information, see the section entitled Tips for grilling and roasting which follows the tables.

Ovenware

You may use any heat-resistant ovenware which is suitable for use in a microwave. Metal roasting dishes are not suitable for roasting with microwaves.

The ovenware can become very hot. Use oven gloves to take the ovenware out of the oven.

Place hot glass ovenware on a dry kitchen towel after they have been removed from the oven. The glass could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.

Tips for roasting

Notes

■ Use a deep roasting dish for roasting meat and poultry.
- Check that your ovenware fits in the cooking compartment. It should not be too big.

Beef

Notes

■ Turn pot-roasted beef after 13 and 23 of the cooking time. Finally, allow to stand for a further 10 minutes approximately.

■ Meat: Cover approx. two thirds of the ovenware base with liquid. Add slightly more liquid for pot roasts. Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time. When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the meat juices.
■ Poultry: Turn the pieces of meat after 23 of the cooking time has elapsed.

Tips for grilling

Notes

■ Always keep the oven door closed when grilling and do not preheat.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be of equal thickness. Steaks should be at least 2 to 3 cm thick. This will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent and juicy. Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.
■ Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will become dry.
Dark meat, e.g. beef, browns more quickly than lighter-coloured meat such as veal or pork. When grilling light-coloured meat or fish, these often only brown slightly on the surface, although they are cooked and juicy on the inside.
■ The grill element switches off and on again automatically. This is normal. The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.

■ Turn fillets of beef and sirloin steaks halfway through the cooking time. Finally, allow to stand for a further 10 minutes approximately.
■ Turn steaks after 23 of the cooking time.

The table does not contain information for the weight of the joint.	For small roasts, select a higher temperature and a shorter cooking time. For larger roasts, select a lower temperature and a longer cooking time.
How to tell when the roast is ready.	Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.	Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear and watery.	Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid.
The roast is not well-done enough.	Carve the roast. Prepare the gravy in the roasting dish and place the slices of roast meat in the gravy. Finish cooking the meat using the microwave only.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs

products that are heated to high temperatures, such as crisps, chips, toast, bread rolls, bread, fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).

Which foods are affected?

Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato

	Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food
General	Keep cooking times as short as possible. Cook food until it is golden brown, but not too dark. Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
Baking	Use hot air at no higher than 180 °C; egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Biscuits	Use hot air at no higher than 180 °C; egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips	Spread out a single layer evenly on the accessory. Cook at least 400 g each time so that the chips do not dry out.
