The cooking time is calculated by the programmes.

for turning or stirring during preparation. Follow the 

information provided. Opening the appliance door

door, restart the operation. If you do not turn or stir 

the dish, the programme runs as normal until it 

reaches the end.

Information on the programmes

Place the food in the cold cooking compartment.
Take the food out of its packaging and weigh it. If it is 

not possible to enter the exact weight, you should round 

it up or down.
For the programmes, always use microwavable 

cookware, for example made of glass or ceramic. 

Observe the cookware tips in the programme table.
A table of suitable types of food with appropriate weight 

ranges and the cookware required can be found in the 

section after the notes.
It is not possible to set a weight outside the weight 

range.
With many dishes, a signal sounds after a certain time. 

Turn or stir the food.

Defrosting:

As far as possible, freeze and store food flat and in 

portion-sized quantities at -18 °C.

Place the frozen food in flat cookware, such as a 

glass or porcelain plate.

After defrosting in the appliance, leave the food to 

continue defrosting for a further 15 to 90 minutes 

until it reaches an even temperature.

Bread should only be defrosted in the required 

amounts, as it quickly becomes stale.

Liquid will be produced when defrosting meat or 

poultry. Drain off this liquid when turning meat and 

poultry and under no circumstances use it for other 

purposes or allow it to come into contact with other 

foods.

After turning, remove any minced meat that has 

already defrosted.

Whole poultry should be placed in the cookware 

breast-side down and poultry portions skin-side 

down.

Vegetables:

Fresh vegetables: Cut into pieces of an equal size. 

Add one tablespoon of water for every 100 g 

vegetables.

Frozen vegetables: This programme is only suitable 

for blanched, not pre-cooked vegetables. It is not 

suitable for frozen vegetables in a cream sauce. Add 

1 to 3 tablespoons of water. Do not add water to 

spinach or red cabbage.

Potatoes:

Boiled potatoes: Cut into pieces of an equal size. 

Add two tablespoons of water per 100 g of potatoes, 

and salt to taste.

Unpeeled boiled potatoes: Use potatoes of the same 

thickness. Wash the potatoes and prick the skin. 

Place the wet potatoes in a dish. Do not add water.

Rice:

Do not use brown or boil-in-the-bag rice.

Add two to two-and-a-half times the amount of water 

to rice.
