General risks when cooking food Health hazard!
Improper use of this appliance can lead to damage to health.
■ The oven should be cleaned regularly and any food deposits removed.
■ Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
■ Particularly with poultry and dishes containing fresh egg, and when warming up meals, ensure that the food is fully cooked through to kill off all pathogens (e.g. salmonella).
Acrylamide may be carcinogenic. Acrylamide is produced when starch is exposed to excessive heat, e.g. in potatoes (fries, chips), biscuits, toast, bread etc.
- Keep cooking times as short as possible.
■ Only brown the food slightly, do not allow it to brown too much.
■ Cut larger-sized fries and then bake at maximum of 180 °C.
■ Brushing baked goods with egg whites or egg yolks helps to reduce the formation of acrylamides (only in hot air mode).
Defrosting meat, poultry or fish in the oven can cause dangerous microorganisms (e.g. salmonella) to multiply rapidly. This increases the risk of food poisoning.
■ Do not defrost meat, poultry and fish in the oven.
■ Only use the defrosting function to defrost vegetables, pre-cooked food, etc.
■ Take the frozen food out of the freezer ahead of time and let it defrost in the refrigerator. The fluid from the frozen food must be able to properly drain, otherwise harmful microorganisms can form.
The water that melts during defrosting can contain harmful bacteria, especially with meat and poultry.
Do not defrost meat, poultry and fish in oven mode, only in microwave mode.
■ Avoid any physical contact.
■ Pour defrost water away. Do not use it for any other purpose.
■ Thoroughly clean the crockery you have used.
Risks in microwave and microwave-combi mode

Information about microwaves
What are microwaves?
Microwaves are electromagnetic waves such as radio and television waves; just like these, they are not visible or palpable.
Microwaves
– are reflected by all metals,
– can penetrate glass, porcelain, plastic and paper,
– are absorbed by foodstuffs.
What effect do microwaves have on foodstuffs?
- The microwaves penetrate foodstuffs to a depth of approximately 3 cm.
- The water, fat and sugar molecules are heated up (dishes with a high water content are heated up most quickly).
- This heat then slowly penetrates the entire dish and leads to the dish being defrosted, heated and cooked.
– Due to the fact that the individual elements of the dish are heated unevenly, it is important to stir or turn the dish over to ensure that it is cooked through evenly. - Heating the liquid can cause so-called "delayed boiling". The liquid then reaches boiling temperature without any outward visible sign of boiling. Even a small vibration may cause the liquid to suddenly spray out, for example when removing it from the microwave oven.
- The cooking compartment and the air in this compartment are not heated. The food container is primarily heated by the hot food itself.
- Every dish requires a certain amount of energy for cooking or defrosting – a good rule of thumb is “high power, short time” or “low power, long time”.
How does a microwave oven work?
- A microwave generator, the so-called "magnetron", generates microwaves and passes them into the cooking compartment.
- The cooking chamber walls and inner screen reflect microwaves, preventing them from being emitted out of the cooking chamber.
– The turntable ensures that the microwaves are distributed evenly to the food. - The microwave power can be set to several levels.
– The appliance switches off
– after the selected time has elapsed,
- when opening the cooking chamber door (5),
- when the "Stop/Delete" button (12) is pressed.
Practical tips
The correct cooking temperature
Given that microwaves react with varying intensity to water, fat and sugar, the cooking time depends significantly on the composition of the dish.
- Dishes with a high fat or sugar content (doughnuts, puddings, fruitcakes) cook through more quickly and reach higher temperatures faster than other dishes. Make sure to observe the recommended cooking time as otherwise the food will burn and damage the appliance.
– Dishes that have a high water content (fish, vegetables, sauces) cook faster than “dry” dishes. - “Dry” dishes (rice, grain products, dried beans) cook very slowly. Please add a little water to these before cooking.
The correct quantity
The larger the quantity to be prepared, the longer the cooking time. If, for example, a potato takes 4 minutes, then two potatoes will take 7 minutes.
Rule of thumb: Twice the quantity requires approximately twice the amount of time.
- Small food items cook more quickly than large food items. And food items of equal size cook through more evenly than food items of different sizes. If possible, cut all food into pieces of roughly the same size. Remember to do this when freezing!
- When defrosting, size and form play a key role. Small, flat food portions defrost faster and more evenly than larger, thicker food portions. During the defrosting process, separate portions that have already begun to thaw, as exposed pieces defrost faster.
Order of dishes
To achieve an even result, special attention must be paid to arranging the food correctly for cooking:
- Arrange food with several equally sized pieces (potatoes, meatballs, hamburgers) in a circle in the container and leave the middle empty.
- For pieces of different sizes, place the small or thin pieces in the middle, as these pieces will be the last to cook.
- For irregularly shaped pieces (e.g. fish) place the thin or flatter end towards the middle.
- Put thin meat slices on top of each other or crosswise.
- Put thicker meat slices and pieces (roast, sausages, etc.) close together.
– Heat meat juices and sauces in a separate container; only fill this two thirds full.
Piercing and scoring
Excess pressure can be caused in many dishes when heating them through. It is therefore recommended to pierce or score certain dishes, in order to prevent them from bursting.
- Do not cook eggs in their shells – unless using special containers which are commercially available.
- Pierce food with peels or skins (potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, aubergines, egg yolks) to prevent it from bursting open.
– Score the skin of whole fish to prevent it from tearing open.
Stir and turn
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
Improper handling of the appliance can lead to burns. Accessible parts, accessories and dishes become very hot during operation.
■ Do not touch the parts of the housing!
■ Food is sometimes heated unevenly. The containers should not get as hot as the food inside. Please therefore ensure to check the temperature of any food thoroughly and carefully, especially for children.
■ Before heating up baby food, please remove the screw cap and suction teat from the feed bottle.
■ The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars shall be stirred or shaken and the temperature checked before consumption, in order to avoid burns.
- Baby food in particular must be stirred carefully to avoid burns. It is essential to check the temperature by tasting the food.
- With poultry and dishes containing fresh egg, and when warming up meals, make absolutely sure that the food is fully cooked through to kill off all pathogens (such as salmonella).
- Stirring and turning the food after half the cooking time is particularly important because the food in the microwave oven is not heated up evenly.
Your microwave multi-function appliance offers different heating methods. To help you choose the right function for the desired food, here are some examples of use.
Microwave
The “Microwave” heating mode without additional functions is good for the preparation of:
- stews, soups, sauces
- Meat without crusts
- Steamed fish
- Vegetables
– Side dishes (rice, boiled potatoes, some pasta) - Hot drinks
– Defrosting small portions
Grill
The grill is located on the cooking compartment ceiling. It is used to quickly brown dishes and cook them au gratin.
With this heating mode, you should grill food with a short cooking time. With the combination function (microwave + grill) this dish would be cooked before it becomes sufficiently browned.
Use the grill for the following: steaks, cutlets, sausages or to brown sandwiches or gratins.
Microwave-combi mode
In microwave-combi mode (grill and microwave), you can cook food quickly and create a lovely crust. This shortens preparation times enormously.
The combination of grill and microwave is well suited for:
– Gratins, casseroles
- Fish
- Thicker pieces of meat with a higher fat content
– Poultry (chicken, duck, turkey)
- Baked potatoes
- Baked toasts
- Gratinated soups
Suitable dishware
WARNING
Danger of explosion! Improper handling of the appliance may result in damage or explosions.
■ Only use utensils that are suitable for use in microwave ovens. Containers that become hotter than the food inside them are not suitable for microwave cooking. Do not use such containers.
■ Metallic containers for food and beverages are not allowed during microwave cooking. Metal in the cooking chamber may cause sparks during operation! This can damage the viewing window or the entire appliance! Do not use metal pots, metal pans and metal lids or dishware with metal parts such as gold edges under any circumstances.
■ Do not use baking paper or similar!
The appliance offers different types of heating: Microwave-mode, grill-mode, microwave-combi mode.
• Always choose the appropriate dishware for the different heating modes.
- Please also ensure to observe the manufacturer's guidelines. Unsuitable crockery can lead to the appliance becoming damaged.
For microwave and microwave-combi mode
Use only microwave-suitable dishware. This includes:
– fire-resistant glass, ceramic, porcelain
– fire and frost resistant glass ceramics
– highly heat-resistant plastic (e.g. roasting bag)
For microwave-only mode
Apart from the materials described in section “For microwave and microwave-combi mode”, materials which are not fireproof but which are suitable for use in microwaves are suitable for use when in microwave mode only, e.g. microwaveable plastic and films.
In order to find out whether the dishware is microwaveable, you can conduct the following test:
- Put the empty container in the cooking chamber.

More information can be found in the brochure "Waste Prevention Programme - of the German Government with the Involvement of the Federal States".
Disposing of old electrical devices in an environmentally-friendly manner
Electrical appliances contain harmful substances as well as valuable resources.
Every consumer is therefore required by law to dispose of old electrical appliances at an authorised collection or return point. They will thus be made available for environmentally-sound, resource-saving recycling.
You can dispose of old electrical appliances free of charge at your local recycling centre.
Please contact your dealer directly for more information about this topic.
