Any existing germs in the food are only killed off if the temperature is sufficiently high
enough (> 70°C) and if the time used is sufficiently long enough (> 10 min).
Foods with a firm skin or shell, such as tomatoes, sausages, potatoes in the skin,
eggplants must be pierced or punctured repeatedly so that any developing steam can
escape and so that the food does not burst.
Eggs without their shell may only be cooked in the microwave if the skin of the egg yoke
has been pierced repeatedly first. Otherwise, the egg yoke can squirt out with
excessive pressure after cooking.
Rearrange layers of foods such as meat balls from top to the bottom and from the
middle to the outside edge.

13.3 Information on microwave cookware
The ideal material for microwave cookware is permeable for microwaves and allows the
energy to penetrate the container and warm up the food.
Please observe the following tips when selecting the correct cookware:
► Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. Therefore, you should not use utensils made of
metal or cookware with metal trim.
► For microwave cooking, do not use any products made from recycled paper, as they
could contain tiny metal fragments, which could cause sparks and/or result in fire.
