Microwaves

Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves. The energy makes it possible to cook or warm up a dish without affecting the form or colour.

Cooking principle

- The microwaves the microwave generates are spread evenly by a distribution system. This cooks the dish evenly.

- The food absorbs the microwaves to a depth of approximately 2.5 cm. Cooking then continues, because the heat is spread in the dish.

- The cooking times vary and depend on the dish you use and the properties of the food:

▶Quantity and density

▶Moisture content

Starting temperature (whether or not it is chilled)

Please note!

The dish is cooked from the inside out by means of heat distribution. The cooking continues even when you take the dish from the oven. Standing times in recipes should therefore be adhered to, in order to ensure:

• Even heating into the middle of the dish.

• Equal temperatures in all parts of the dish.

Microwave power setting

Power Use
1000 W	For quick heating of drinks, water and dishes containing a lot of moisture.For cooking fresh or frozen vegetables.
750 W	For preparing and heating of drinks and dishes.
600 W	For melting chocolate.For cooking fish and seafood.For heating on two levels.For cooking dried beans at low temperatures.For heating or cooking delicate dishes with eggs.
360 W	For cooking dairy products or jam at low temperatures.
180 W	For fast defrosting of dishes.For softening butter or ice cream.
90 W	For defrosting cakes containing cream.

Cookware that you use for the microwave function should not block the microwaves. Metals such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper reflect microwaves. For that reason, do not use metal cookware. Cookware which is designated as microwave-safe can be used safely. For more information about suitable cookware, consult the following guidelines and always use the glass baking tray on level one if you use the microwave function.

Cookware	Microwave safe	Remarks
Aluminium foil	X	Can be used in small quantities to prevent certain parts of the dish from overcooking. Arcing can occur if the foil is too close to the oven wall or if too much foil is used.
Porcelain and earthenware		Porcelain, earthenware, glazed earthenware and ivory porcelain are usually suitable, unless they have a metal edge.
Disposable crockery made from polyester or cardboard		Frozen meals are sometimes packaged in disposable tableware.
Fast food packagingPolystyrene cupsPaper bags or newspaperRecycled paper or metal edges		Can be used to warm up dishes.Polystyrene can melt if it overheats.Can catch fire.Can cause arcing.
GlasswareOven dishesFine glasswareGlass jars		Can be used, unless it has a metal edge.Can be used to warm up dishes or liquids. Thin glass can break or shatter with sudden heating.The lid must be removed. Only suitable for warming.
Metal		Can cause arcing or fire.
PaperPlates, cups,kitchen paperRecycled paper		For short cooking times and warming. For absorbing excess moisture.Can cause arcing.
Plastic		Only use heat-resistant thermoplastic material. Other types of plastic can warp or discolour at high temperatures. Do not use melamine plastic. Only if boil-proof or ovenproof. Must not be airtight. If necessary, prick it with a fork.

√ : Recommended
√X : Careful
X : Unsafe

Please note!

Warning!

• Heating liquids in the microwave can result in delayed boiling. This means that the liquid may start to boil furiously after it is removed from the microwave, with the risk of scalding. You can offset the delayed boiling effect by placing a plastic or glass spoon in the liquid prior to heating it in the microwave.
  • Take care with baby food:

Shake or stir the content of babies' bottles or pots of baby food after heating.
▶ Check the temperature of the food carefully prior to consumption to prevent scalding injuries.

- Cutlery and tableware may become hot after using the microwave.

*Changing to manually switch off will increase energy consumption. If the oven is switched off manually (or when an interruption of the power supply occurs) this function will be reset (the display will automatically switch off).

Cleaning the appliance

Clean the oven regularly to prevent fat and food particles from accumulating, especially on the surfaces of the interior and the exterior, the door and the seal.

• Activate the child lock (to prevent that the appliance is switched on accidentally).
• Clean the exterior surfaces with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.
• Next wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.
• Remove splashes and stains on the interior surfaces with a cloth and soapy water.
• Next wipe with a clean, damp cloth and dry the surfaces.

Important!

Make sure that no water enters the vents. Never use abrasive cleaning materials or chemical solvents. Always make sure that the seal of the door is clean.

This prevents accumulation of dirt and allows you to close the door properly.

Cleaning function (Steam clean)

With Steam clean and a damp cloth, you can easily remove grease and dirt from the oven walls.

Using Steam clean

• Only use Steam clean when the oven has cooled down fully. It is more difficult to remove dirt and grease if the oven is hot.

• The program takes 4 minutes. Then we advise you to wait for 30 minutes. Food remains on the enamel walls will be sufficiently soaked after 30 minutes so that they can be removed with a damp cloth.

• Remove all accessories from the oven.

• Pour 0.15 litres of water into the bottom of the oven.
• Select 'Cleaning' with the function knob.
• Touch the confirm key to start Steam clean.

Do not open the door during the cleaning program.

Removing and cleaning the guide rails

Use conventional cleaning products to clean the guide rails.

1. Remove the screw using a screwdriver.
2. Remove the guide rails from the holes in the back wall.

Save the guide rail spacers carefully. Return the spacers after cleaning. This prevents sparks being created during use.
