General risks when cooking food

CAUTION

Health hazard!

Improper use of this appliance can lead to damage to health.

■ Clean the appliance regularly and remove any traces of food leftovers immediately.
■ 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.

Information about microwaves

What are microwaves?

Microwaves are electromagnetic waves like those for radio and television; as with radio and TV waves, they cannot be seen or felt.

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.
- The cooking chamber and the air inside it are not heated – the food container becomes warm primarily due to the heat of the food.
- When heating liquids in a microwave oven, a phenomenon known as “delayed boiling” can occur. 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.
- Every dish requires a certain amount of energy for cooking or defrosting – a good rule of thumb is “high power, low time” or “low power, high time”.

How does a microwave oven work?

– A microwave generator, the so-called “magnetron” (4), generates the microwaves and disperses them into the cooking chamber.
- The cooking chamber walls and inner screen reflect microwaves, preventing them from being emitted out of the cooking chamber.
- The turntable (8) ensures that the microwaves are distributed evenly to the food.
- The microwave power can be set to several levels.

Suitable dishware

! NOTICE

Risk 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 any aluminium foil, due to the fact that this can also cause sparks when coming into contact with the cooking chamber walls.

! NOTICE

Risk of damage to property!

Improper handling of the appliance can lead to property damage.

- Do not use any containers made of porcelain, ceramic or plastic and any protective fi lms that are not resistant to high heat in grill or microwave-combi mode!

■ Do not use baking paper or similar!

The appliance offers different heating modes: Microwave, grill and combi modes. Always select suitable dishware for the different heating modes. In each case observe the information provided by the manufacturer. 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)
- microwaveable plastics

To find out if a piece of dishware is microwaveable, perform the following test:

1. Place the empty container into the cooking chamber, and close the door (11).
2. Press the button 📋 "START/+30sec/confirm" (14).

The appliance will then start and run at full microwave power for 30 seconds.

• If the dishware becomes hot or if sparks are produced, open the door immediately to stop the process: This dishware is not suitable!
• If the dish remains cold or only lukewarm, it may be used in microwave mode.

For grill heating method

Any materials that can be used in a conventional oven are suitable for the grill heating method.

Size and shape

• Flat, wide containers are more suitable than tall, narrow ones. "Flat" dishes can cook through more evenly.
• Round or oval shaped containers are more suitable than square or rectangular containers. There is a risk of localised overheating in the corners!

Using the accessories

The turntable

! NOTICE

Risk of damage to property! Improper handling of the appliance can lead to property damage.

■ Do not exceed a weight of 4 kg on the turntable. Otherwise, it could break.
■ Do not place the hot turntable on a cold surface such as, for example, a work surface made of granite or tile. Doing so could shatter the plate. Always use a suitable mat underneath.

The turntable must be used whenever the microwave is operated.

– It rotates during cooking, in order to ensure that the food is evenly heated.
– Maximum load: 4 kg.
- It also collects dripping fat if used with the grill rack (34).

1. Place the turntable drive (5) in the recess in the middle as required.
2. Insert the roller ring (7).
3. Place the turntable (8) on the cooking chamber floor and turn it until its centre clicks into place on the turntable drive.
4. Always place cooking containers on the turntable. This prevents liquid from seeping into the appliance if it should boil over.

Grill rack

! NOTICE

Risk of damage to property! Improper handling of the appliance may cause it to become damaged.

The grill rack is not suitable for purely microwave mode.

■ Use the grill rack exclusively in grill-combi or microwave-combi mode.

Practical tips for microwaving

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 absolutely sure to follow recommended cooking times to avoid burning the food and damaging 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.
  – Lay thin slices of meat on top of each other or criss-cross them.
• Place thicker slices and pieces of meat (joints, sausages etc.) close together.
• Heat meat juices and sauces in a separate container; only fill this 23 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 microwave 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

WARNING

Risk of burns!

Food is sometimes heated up unevenly in the microwave. The containers should not get as hot as the food inside.

■ Check the temperature of any food thoroughly and carefully, especially for children.
■ 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.

• Always stir baby food in particular very thoroughly to avoid burns.
- It is essential to check the temperature by tasting the food.
- With poultry, with 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).
- Stir the food after half the cooking time has elapsed and turn it, as food does not heat through evenly in the microwave.

Waste prevention, free return and disposal

Waste prevention

According to the provisions of Directive 2008/98/EC, waste prevention measures always take priority over waste management.

For electrical and electronic devices, waste prevention measures include extending the lifespan of defective devices through repair and reselling used working appliances instead of disposing of them.

Please help us reduce waste and contact our customer service if your product is faulty.

More information can be found in the brochure "Waste Prevention Programme - of the German Government with the Involvement of the Federal Länder".

Free return of old electrical appliances

Upon purchasing a new electrical appliance of the same type with essentially the same function, consumers may return an old electrical appliance to a distributor obliged to take back old appliances, at no extra cost for the consumers. This option also exists for deliveries made to a private household. For distance selling, the option of having old electrical equipment collected for free applies only in the case of purchase of new electrical equipment with heat exchangers (e.g. refrigerators, dehumidifiers), screens and display devices with a screen surface > 100 cm ^2 , and large devices with at least one of its external dimensions measuring more than 50 cm.

In addition, consumers may return up to three old electrical appliances of the same type to a distributor's collection point for free, without having to purchase a new electrical appliance. In this case, however, the old appliances' external dimensions may not exceed 25 cm.

Disposal

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 elec-

trical 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.

Don't forget to erase data!

If necessary, each consumer is responsible for erasing personal data from electrical and electronic equipment

Batteries and rechargeable batteries, lamps and bulbs

If necessary, old single-use and rechargeable batteries that are not encased by an old electrical appliance, as well as lamps/bulbs that can be removed from an old electrical appliance without being destroyed, must be removed and disposed of separately before you return the appliance.

This symbol means that single-use and rechargeable batteries must not be disposed of with other household waste.

Consumers are required by law to bring all single-use and rechargeable batteries, regardless of whether they contain harmful substances*) or not, to a collection

point operated by their communal authority or borough or to a retailer, so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and so that valuable resources (e.g. cobalt, nickel or copper) can be recovered.

Single-use and rechargeable batteries can be returned free of charge.

Some of the possible contents (e.g. mercury, cadmium and lead) are toxic and, if improperly disposed of, can have adverse effects on the environment. Heavy metals, for instance, can have detrimental health effects on humans, animals and plants and accumulate in the environment and food chain, and then enter the body indirectly through the consumption of food.

There is a high risk of fire with old lithium batteries. Special care must therefore be taken to properly dispose of old lithium batteries and rechargeable batteries. Improper disposal can also lead to internal and external short circuits due to thermal effects (heat) or mechanical damage. A short circuit can lead to a fire or an explosion and have serious consequences for people and the environment. It is therefore important to tape off the terminals of lithium batteries and rechargeable batteries before disposing of them to prevent an external short circuit.

Single-use and rechargeable batteries that are not built into the device should be removed before disposal and then disposed of separately.

Please only dispose of single-use and rechargeable batteries in a discharged state!

If possible, use rechargeable batteries in place of disposable batteries.

Charge your batteries correctly and fully to maximise their service life. If necessary, discharge them completely with a suitable charger before recharging them.

Always use the correct type of batteries for your devices. Incorrect use can shorten the life of the batteries and possibly have harmful effects.
