Cooking with microwaves 
Important tips! 
•  Eggs with shells and whole eggs should not be 
heated in microwave ovens as they may 
explode. 
•  Before heating or cooking foods with shells or 
skin (e.g., apples, tomatoes, potatoes, 
sausages) prick them with a fork so that they 
do not open up. 
• When foods are prepared with very little 
humidity (e.g. defrosting bread, making 
popcorn, etc.), the humidity evaporates very 
fast. The appliance then functions with a 
vacuum and the food may be carbonised. This 
situation may cause damage to the appliance 
and to the container being used. Therefore, the 
oven should be set only for the necessary time 
and the cooking process should be supervised.  
•  It is not possible to heat large quantities of oil 
(fry) in the microwave. 
• Do not heat liquids in airtight containers. 
Explosion hazard! 
•  Alcoholic drinks may not be  heated in the 
appliance.
•  Do not heat any kind of explosive material or 
liquid in the microwave. 
• Remove  precooked foods from their 
packaging,  because the latter is not always 
heat-resistant. Follow the manufacturer’s 
instructions.  
 
•  If there are various different containers, 
such as cups for example, place them 
uniformly on the rotating plate. 
•  Always heat baby bottles or jars of baby food 
without lids or teats. After heating, shake or stir 
it well to ensure that the heat is uniformly 
distributed. The temperature of the containers 
is considerably lower than that of the heated 
food. Check the temperature of the food before 
giving it to the child, to avoid burns.   
•  Plastic bags should not be closed with  metal 
clips, but with plastic ones. The bag should be 
perforated several times so that the steam may 
come out easily.   
•  When heating or cooking foods, ensure that 
they reach a minimum temperature of 70°C
• During the cooking process, water vapour 
may form on the glass window of the door and 
may drip down after a time. This is a normal 
situation and is probably because the room
temperature is low. This does not mean
that the appliance is not operating properly
or safely. After cooking, clean the water 
that results from the condensation.
