The microwave
This section provides information on ovenware as well
as an overview of how to set the microwave.
Microwaves are converted to heat when they come
into contact with food. The microwave is ideal for
rapid defrosting, heating up, melting and cooking.
Why not try out the microwave straight away? You
could heat up a cup of water for your tea, for example.
Use a large cup without a decorative gold or silver rim
and place a teaspoon in it.
1.
Set the 800 watt power setting.
2.
Set to 2 minute using the timer switch.
An acoustic signal sounds after 2 minute. The water
for your tea is hot.
Please read the safety instructions at the front of the
instruction manual once more while you are drinking
your cup of tea. They are very important.
HeatĆresistant ovenware made of glass,
glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heatĆresisting
plastic are suitable. These materials do not block the
microwaves.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you
having to transfer the food into other containers.
Only use ovenware with gold or silver trim if the
manufacturer guarantees they are suitable for
microwaves.
Metal dishes are not suitable.
Metal blocks the microwaves. Food in closed metal
containers will remain cold.
