4. Use the dial control to select a cooking time between 10 seconds and
60 minutes.
5. Press the START button. The cooking time depends on the quantity
and constituency of the contents of the oven. With a little practice you
will soon learn to estimate the cooking time.
NOTE:
• Each time you press the START button, the operating period is
extended.
- Up to 5 minutes by 10 seconds.
- From 5 minutes to 10 minutes by 30 seconds.
- Over 10 minutes by 60 seconds.
• Preparation of food in a microwave oven is very much faster than in
a conventional cooker. Set the cooking time to a low level if you are
not sure and continue cooking again if necessary.
• Please note: A cover should be placed over the food when operat-
ing the microwave.

Pause or Cancel Cooking

• To pause cooking, press STOP / CANCEL button once or open the
door.
• To continue cooking, close the door and press the START button
again.
• In order to fully stop the cooking process, press the STOP / CANCEL
button twice, thereby resetting all program settings.

Quick Start

You wish to heat food or drinks shortly at the highest power setting?
Quick-start the microwave by directly pressing the START button. The
cooking process will start immediately, whereby each time you press
the button, cooking time will be extended by 10, 30 or 60 seconds (see
"Operating the Microwave").
The power setting of the microwave is thereby 100 %.

Heating

Warming and heating are special characteristics of microwaves. Re-
frigerated liquids and foods can be easily warmed up to room or eating
temperature without having to use a lot of pots.
The heating times in the following table are for reference only, as the
time depends very much on the original temperature and the texture of
the food. It is therefore recommended to check once in a while whether
the food is hot enough.

Cooking

Hands-on Cooking Tips

Follow the guidelines given in the cooking table and recipe. Monitor the
cooking process if you do not yet have as much experience.
You may open the door of the appliance at any time. The appliance will
turn off automatically.
It will only continue operation when the door is closed and the START
button pressed again.
Refrigerated food needs a longer cooking time than that with room
temperature.
The chunkier the food, the longer the cooking time. Meat cut in bigger
pieces, for example, requires longer cooking than meat of the same
quantity cut into strips. It is recommended cooking larger amounts of
food at maximum power and having it simmer at medium power for a
more evenly cooking.
Lower foodstuffs cook faster than higher ones; therefore distribute the
food as low as possible. Place thinner parts such as chicken legs or fish
filets in the centre or leave them overlapping.
Smaller amounts cook faster than bigger ones. The following rule of
thumb applies:
Double amount = almost double time
Half amount = half time
If you cannot find the exact cooking time for a dish, you may apply the
following rule:
Per 100 g approx. 1 minute cooking
All foods that you cover on a common stove should be covered in the
microwave as well.
A cover will prevent the food from running dry. An upside-down plate,
greaseproof paper or microwave cooking foil are all suitable as covers.
Cook food that should be getting a crust without cover.
