∙ Do not place the food directly onto the glass turntable; always use a suitable plate or cooking container. Make sure that
the container does not protrude over the rim of the glass turntable.
∙ Metal objects are to be avoided since microwaves are reflected from metal surfaces and might not reach the food to be
cooked. Any metal in the oven could also cause sparks, resulting in possible damage to the unit.
∙ As a general rule, cutlery or metal containers must not be used in the microwave oven. Some food wrappings contain
aluminium foil or wires underneath a layer of paper and are therefore also unsuitable for use with microwave appliances.
Should the use of aluminium foil be recommend in a recipe, ensure that the food is tightly wrapped in the aluminium foil
(avoiding any air blisters). Ensure a minimum distance of 2.5 cm between the aluminium foil and the interior walls of the
oven.
∙ Always make sure that the cooking container or plate used does not contain any metal decoration such as a gold rim or
colour containing metal particles. Lead crystal objects are also not suitable. Always make sure that no parts of the cooking
containers used are hollow (e.g. the handles). Porous materials may have absorbed water during cleaning and are again
not suitable. Cooking containers or utensils made of 'Melamine' plastic material absorb energy and are also unsuitable.
∙ Containers made from heat-resistant glass or porcelain are well suitable for use in microwave appliances.
∙ Plastic is suitable only if it is heat-resistant. Cooking bags etc. should be punctured to be able to release any high pressure
during cooking.
Plastic cooking containers especially designed for use with microwave ovens are available at most kitchenware dealers.

Timer
∙ The timer features two scales. The outer scale is for defrosting according to weight in kgs. The inner scale is used for setting the
cooking or heating-up times.
∙ By using the timer, an operating time of up to 30 minutes can be selected.
∙ When setting the cooking time to less than 5 minutes (or for amounts less than 300 g), turn the knob to a greater value
first and then turn it slowly back to the desired setting.
∙ Once the timer is set, operation starts automatically when the door is closed.
∙ The appliance can be switched off at any time by setting the timer back to '0'.
∙ For defrosting, set the power selection switch to 'Defrosting'. Use the outer scale on the timer to set the weight of the food
to be defrosted. The adjustable values for defrosting are approximate only, and may differ from those actually required. If
defrosting is not complete after the elapsed time, repeat the process with a relatively shorter time setting.
