Uniform cooking

Foods such as chicken, hamburgers or steak should be turned once during cooking. Depending on the type of food, if applicable, remove it from the outside to the center of the dish once or twice during cooking.

Allow idle time

After the cooking time is over, leave the food in the oven for an adequate time to complete its cooking cycle and cool gradually.

ENGLISHENGLISH

Check whether the food is ready

The colour and firmness of food help to determine whether it is properly cooked. This includes:

• Steam coming from all parts of the food, not only from the edges.
• Poultry joints move easily.
• Pigs or poultry show no signs of blood.
• Fish is opaque and can be easily cut with a fork.

Browning dish

When using a browning pan or self-heating pan, always place a heat-resistant insulator, such as a porcelain plate, underneath to prevent damage to the turntable and rotating ring.

Microwave-safe plastic film

Microwave-safe plastic utensils

Some microwave-safe plastic utensils may not be suitable for cooking foods with high fat and sugar content. Furthermore, the preheating time specified in the dish's instruction manual must not be exceeded.
