Notes
The glass tray can be used on shelf level 1 for
defrosting food.
Always cover food when reheating it, except when
reheating meat/fish coated in breadcrumbs.
Add a little water to vegetables which have been
kept stored. Vegetable cooking times depend on the
texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegetables contain
more water than vegetables which have been stored
and usually cook more quickly.
Deep frozen, ready-made meals can be defrosted
and then reheated or cooked in one process. Follow
the instructions on the packet.
