11.1 Tips on configuring the settings for
dishes
Follow these tips to achieve optimal cooking results:
¡ Only use food that is in perfect condition.
¡ Take the food out of its packaging and weigh it. If
you cannot set the exact weight on the appliance,
round the weight up or down.
¡ Only use microwave-safe, heat-resistant cookware,
e.g. made of glass or ceramic.
¡ Place the food in the cold cooking compartment.
Defrosting
¡ Freeze and store food flat and in portion-sized
quantities at -18 °C.
¡ Place the frozen food on flat cookware, such as a
glass or porcelain plate.
¡ Food may not be completely defrosted by the end
of the programme. The food can nonetheless be fur-
ther processed.
¡ To allow the temperature to equalise, leave the de-
frosted food to rest for another 10 to 30 minutes in
the appliance after switching it off.
¡ Liquid is produced when defrosting meat or poultry.
When turning, drain off any liquid. Do not reuse the
liquid 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 on the cookware
breast-side down and poultry portions skin-side
down.
Vegetables
¡ Fresh vegetables: Cut into pieces of equal size. Add
one tablespoon of water per 100 g.
¡ Frozen vegetables: Only suitable for blanched, not
pre-cooked vegetables. It is not suitable for frozen
vegetables in cream sauce. Add 1 to 3 tablespoons
of water. Do not add any water for spinach or red
cabbage.
Potatoes
¡ Boiled potatoes: Cut into pieces of an equal size.
Add two tablespoons of water and some salt per
100 g.
¡ Unpeeled boiled potatoes: Use potatoes of the
same thickness. Wash them and prick the skin.
Place the wet potatoes in a dish. Do not add water.
¡ Baked potatoes: Use potatoes of the same thick-
ness. Wash, dry and prick the skin.

to the rice.
Poultry
¡ Only use chicken portions at refrigerator temperat-
ure.
¡ Prick the skin here and there with a fork.
¡ Place the chicken portions on the wire rack, skin
side up. Place the wire rack in the glass tray. This
will catch any liquid that drips down.
Lasagne
¡ Best suited is frozen Lasagne with a maximum
height of around 3 cm.
¡ Take lasagne out of the packaging and place in mi-
crowave-safe cookware.

than 700 g, place the cookware on a microwave-
safe, upside down plate.
