settings.
5. Use the turning knob to set the desired cooking time between
5 seconds and 95 minutes.

The cooking time depends on the quantity and texture of the food.
After a few times trying you will quickly learn to estimate the cooking
time.
NOTE:
• Each time pressing the START/+30SEC./CONFIRM button will
prolong the operating time by 30 seconds.
• Cooking in a microwave is much faster than on a stove. If you
are not sure, set a shorter cooking time and continue operation if
necessary.
• Please note: When only using the microwave mode, shield the
foodstuff with a cover.
Pause or stop cooking
• If you wish to pause the cooking operation, press the STOP/CLEAR
button once and open the door.
• If you wish to continue the cooking operation, close the door and
press the START/+30SEC./CONFIRM button.
• If you wish to completely stop operation, press the STOP/ CLEAR
button twice.
Quick Start
You wish to heat food or drinks shortly at the highest power setting?
There are two possibilities:
1. Quick-start the microwave by directly pressing the START/+30SEC./
CONFIRM button. The cooking process will start immediately,
whereas each time pressing the button will prolong the cooking time
by 30 seconds.
Or:
2. Turn the turning knob towards the left. A signal tone sounds and the
display will show "95:00". Set the time by turning the knob left or
right. Press the START/+30SEC./CONFIRM button to start opera-
tion.
The power setting of the microwave is thereby 100%.

Warming and heating are special characteristics of microwaves. Re-
frigerated liquids and foods can be easily warmed up to room or eating
temperature without having to use a lot of pots.
The heating times in the following table are for reference only, as the
time depends very much on the original temperature and the texture of
the food. It is therefore recommended to check once in a while whether
the food is hot enough.
