Settings table
The following table provides some examples. Cooking 
times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight 
and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.
Note: . During cooking, stews or liquid meals such as 
soups, sauces or drinks can heat up too quickly 
unnoticed and overflow or spatter. For this reason we 
recommend that you stir continuously, gradually heating 
the food at a suitable power level.
