You cannot find any information

about the settings for the quantity

of food you have prepared.

Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of

thumb:

Double amount = double cooking time

half amount

= half the cooking time

The food has become too dry.

Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower

microwave power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.

When the time has elapsed, the

food is not defrosted, hot or

cooked.

Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high

require longer times.

When the time has elapsed, the

food is overheated at the edge

but not done in the middle.

Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower

microwave power setting and a longer cooking time.
