About the tables
Notes:
The times given apply to food placed in a cold oven.
Begin with the lower temperature and, if necessary, use a higher setting the next time, since a lower
temperature results in more even browning.
Additional information can be found in the Baking tips section following the tables.
Always place the cake tin in the centre of the lower wire rack. Food with ** should be placed in
the turntable.

Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following
rule of thumb:
Double the amount = almost double the cooking time
Half the amount = half the cooking time
Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower
microwave power setting. Cover the food and add
more liquid.
Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is
piled high require longer times.
Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select
a lower microwave power setting and a longer
cooking time.
Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you
are defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.
