Zanussi ZSG25224 Notice D'utilisation page 8

• Prick food with "skin" or "peel", such as
potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with a fork
several times before cooking so that the
food does not explode.
• For chilled or frozen food, set a longer
cooking time.
• Dishes which contain sauce must be stirred
from time to time.
• Vegetables that have a firm structure, such
as carrots, peas or cauliflower, must be
cooked in water.
• Turn larger pieces after half of the cooking
time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar-sized
pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porcelain,
ceramic or earthenware with small holes, e.
g. on handles or unglazed bottoms. Moisture
going into the holes can cause the cookware
to crack when it is heated.
• The glass cooking tray is a work space for
heating food or liquids. It is necessary for the
operation of the microwave.
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small
upturned plate with a container below it so
that the defrosting liquid collects in the
container.

• Turn the food after half of the defrosting
time. If possible, divide and then remove the
pieces that started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau,
quark
• Do not fully defrost the food in the appliance,
but let it defrost at room temperature. This
gives a more even result. Fully remove all
metal or aluminium packaging before
defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables,
which are to be further prepared while raw,
in the appliance. Let them defrost at room
temperature.
• You can use a higher microwave power to
cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting
them first.
Ready meals
• You can prepare ready meals in the
appliance only if their packaging is suitable
for microwave use.
• You must follow the manufacturer's
instructions printed on the packaging (e.g.
remove the metal cover and pierce the
plastic film).
