You can use your microwave oven to:

• Cook Cooking principle.

1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron

reected at cavity and are distributed uniformly as the food rotates on the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.

2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up

to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Cooking then continues as the heat is dissipated within the food.

3. Cooking times vary according to the container

used and the properties of the food:

• Quantity and density

• Initial temperature (refrigerated or not) NOTE As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even when you have taken the food out of the microwave oven. Standing times specied in recipes and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:

• Even cooking of the food right to the centre.

• The same temperature throughout the food. Checking that your microwave oven is operating correctly The following simple procedure enables you to check that your microwave oven is working correctly at all times. If you are in doubt, refer to the section entitled Troubleshooting and information code on the pages 42 - 44. NOTE The microwave oven must be plugged into an appropriate wall socket. The turntable must be in position in the microwave oven. If a power level other than the maximum (100 % - 900 W) is used, the water takes longer to boil.

Auto sensor cooking instructions The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food automatically by detecting the amount of gases generated from the food while cooking.

• When cooking food, many kinds of gases are generated. The Auto Sensor determines the proper time and power level by detecting these gases from the food, eliminating the need to set the cooking time and power level.

• When you cover a container with its lid or plastic wrap during Sensor Cooking, the Auto Sensor will detect the gases generated after the container has been saturated with steam.

• Shortly before cooking ends, the remaining cooking time will begin its count down. This will be a good time for you to rotate or stir the food for even cooking if it is necessary.

• Before auto sensor cooking food may be seasoned with herbs, spices or browning sauces. A word of caution though, salt or sugar may cause burn spots on food so these ingredients should be added after cooking. Utensils & Cover for sensor cooking

• To obtain good cooking results with this function, follow the directions for selecting appropriate containers and covers in the charts in this book.

• Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with their lids or with plastic wrap. When using plastic wrap, turn back one corner to allow steam to escape at the proper rate.

• Always cover with the lid intended for the utensil being used. If the utensil does not have its own lid, use plastic wrap.

• Fill containers at least half full.

• Foods that require stirring or rotating should be stirred or turned toward the end of the Sensor Cook cycle, after the time has started to count down on the display.18 English Microwave oven use Microwave oven use Important

• After installing the microwave oven and plugging into an electrical outlet, do not unplug the power cord. The gas sensor needs time to stabilize in order to cook satisfactorily.

• It is not advisable to use the auto sensor cooking feature on a continuous cooking operation, i.e. one cooking operation immediately after another.

• Install the microwave oven in a well ventilated location for proper cooling and airow and to ensure the sensor will operate accurately.

• To avoid poor results, do not use the Auto sensor when the room ambient temperature is too high or too low.

• Do not use volatile detergent to clean your microwave oven. Gas resulting from this detergent may affect the sensor.

• Avoid placing the microwave oven near high moisture or gas emitting appliances, since this will interfere with the proper performance of the Auto Sensor.

• Always keep the inside of the microwave oven clean. Wipe all spills with a damp cloth. This microwave oven is designed for household use only.

Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry. The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they should be used in a microwave oven. Cookware Microwave- safe Comments Aluminum foil Can be used in small quantities to protect areas against overcooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the microwave oven wall or if too much foil is used. Crust plate Do not preheat for more than 8 minutes. China and earthenware Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually suitable, unless decorated with a metal trim. Disposable polyester cardboard dishes Some frozen foods are packaged in these dishes. Fast-food packaging

• Polystyrene cups containers Can be used to warm food. Overheating may cause the polystyrene to melt.

• Paper bags or newspaper May catch re.

• Recycled paper or metal trims May cause arcing. Glassware

• Oven-to-tableware Can be used, unless decorated with a metal trim.

• Fine glassware Can be used to warm foods or liquids. Delicate glass may break or crack if heated suddenly.

• Glass jars Must remove the lid. Suitable for warming only. Cookware Microwave- safe Comments Metal

• Dishes May cause arcing or re.

• Freezer bag twist ties Paper

• Plates, cups, napkins and kitchen paper For short cooking times and warming. Also to absorb excess moisture.

• Recycled paper May cause arcing. Plastic

• Containers Particularly if heat-resistant thermoplastic. Some other plastics may warp or discolour at high temperatures. Do not use Melamine plastic.

• Cling lm Can be used to retain moisture. Should not touch the food. Take care when removing the lm as hot steam will escape.

• Freezer bags Only if boilable or microwave oven-proof. Should not be airtight. Prick with a fork, if necessary. Wax or grease-proof paper Can be used to retain moisture and prevent spattering. : Recommended : Use caution : UnsafeEnglish 33 Cooking guide Cooking guide Cooking Guide for frozen vegetables Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid.

Microwaves Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. Cooking Cookware for microwave cooking: Cookware must allow microwave energy to pass through it for maximum efciency. Microwaves are reected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper, but they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic as well as paper and wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers. Food suitable for microwave cooking: Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, sh, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for example (see the chapter with tips, techniques and hints). Covering during cooking To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises as steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in different ways: e.g. with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling lm. Standing times After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature to even out within the food.34 English Cooking guide Cooking guide Cooking guide for fresh vegetables Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid.

Reheating Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional microwave ovens hobs normally take. Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in the chart consider liquids with a room temperature of about +18 to +20 °C or a chilled food with a temperature of about +5 to +7 °C. Arranging and covering Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry out before the centre is piping hot. Reheating small pieces will be more successful. Power levels and stirring Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated using 600 W, 450 W or even 300 W. Check the tables for guidance. In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is delicate, in large quantities, or if it is likely to heat up very quickly (mince pies, for example). Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again before serving. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass stick into the liquids. Avoid overheating (and therefore spoiling) the food. It is preferable to underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary. Heating and standing times When reheating food for the rst time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken - for future reference. Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout. Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out. The recommended standing time after reheating is 2 - 4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety precautions.36 English Cooking guide Cooking guide Reheating liquids and food Use the power levels and times in this table as a guide lines for reheating.

Microwaves gently defrost frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if unexpected guests suddenly show up. Frozen poultry must be thoroughly thawed before cooking. Remove any metal ties and take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away. Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain off any liquid and remove any giblets as soon as possible. Check the food occasionally to make sure that it does not feel warm. If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting. Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand for 20 minutes before continuing. Leave the sh, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to the table below. NOTE Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities need less time than bigger ones. Remember this hint while freezing and defrosting food. For defrosting of frozen food with a temperature of about -18 to -20 °C, use the following table as a guide. Food Serving Size Power (W) Time (min.) Meat Minced Meat 250 g 500 g
