Result
The food is still not defrosted, hot or
cooked after the end of cooking time .
After the end of cooking time the food
is overheated at the edges but is still
not ready in the middle.
Other things to think about...
• Food items have different shapes and
qualities. They are prepared in different
quantities. Because of this, the necessary
time and power for defrosting, heating
or cooking can vary. As a rough guide:
double the quantity - almost double the
time.
• The microwave creates the heat directly
in the food. Because of this, all places
cannot be heated at the same time. You
must stir or turn the heated dishes,
especially when preparing larger
quantities of food.
• The standing time is given in the tables.
Let the food stand, in the appliance or
outside it, so that the heat is distributed
more evenly.
• Adjust the power level according to food
quantity. Using high power level with
small amount of food can burn the food
or generate arcing when you use the
accessories.
• You get better results for rice if you use
flat, wide dishes.
Setting the Microwave function
Set longer cooking time or select higher micro-
wave power. Note that taller dishes generally
need longer cooking time. Stir or turn food during
cooking.
Next time select a lower power and a longer
time. Stir liquids, such as soup, halfway through.
It depends on the model if your
appliance has knob symbols,
indicators or lamps:
• The indicator comes on when
the oven heats up.
• The lamp comes on when the
appliance operates.
• The symbol shows whether the
knob controls one of the
cooking zones, the oven
functions or the temperature.
