Warning! Read the section "Microwave
Safety" before
microwave.
Follow these recommendations when cooking with
your microwave:
 Before heating or cooking foods with peel or
skin (e.g. apples, tomatoes, potatoes,
sausages) prick them so that they do not
burst. Cut the food up before starting to
prepare it.
 Before using a container or dish make sure
that it is suitable for microwave use (see the
section on types of ovenware).
 When cooking food with very little moisture
(e.g. defrosting bread, making popcorn,
etc.) evaporation is very quick. The oven
then works as if it was empty and the food
may burn. The oven and the container may
be damaged in such a situation. You should
therefore set just the cooking time necessary
and you must keep a close eye on the
cooking process.
 It is not possible to heat large quantities of
oil (frying) in the microwave.
 Remove
pre-cooked
containers they come in since these are not
always heat resistant. Follow the food
manufacturer's instructions.
 If you have several containers, such as
cups, for example, set them out uniformly on
the turntable plate.
 Do not close plastic bags with metal clips.
Use plastic clips instead. Prick the bags
several times so that the steam can escape
easily.
 When heating or cooking foods, check that
they reach at least a temperature of 158°F.
 During cooking, steam may form on the
oven door window and may start to drip.
This situation is normal and may be more
noticeable if the room temperature is low.

a wide opening, so that the steam can
evaporate easily.

Cooking with microwaves rules
1. The greater the amount of food, the longer
the cooking time. Keep in mind that:
 Double the quantity » double the time
 Half the quantity » half the time
2. The lower the temperature, the longer the
cooking time.
the
3. Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more
quickly.
4. Cooking will be more uniform if the food is
evenly distributed on the turntable. If you put
dense foods on the outside part of the plate
and less dense ones on the center of the
plate, you can heat up different types of food
simultaneously.
5. You can open the oven door at any time.
When you do this the oven switches off
automatically. The microwave will only start
working again when you close the door and
press the start key.
6. Foods that are covered require less cooking
time and retain their characteristics better.
The lids used must let microwaves pass
through and have small holes that allow
steam to escape.
