Heating frozen food in the microwave
Observe the recommended settings when using the microwave to heat frozen food.
Note:
Cooking tips
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. You can also use a plate or microwave film to cover the dish. Take ready
meals out of the packaging.
¡ Distribute the food flat in the cookware. Food which lies flat cooks more quickly than food which is piled high.
¡ Turn or stir the food two or three times during the defrosting time.
¡ After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 2–5ºminutes.
¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cookware can become very hot. Use oven gloves.
¡ The food will retain most of its natural flavor. Use salt and seasonings sparingly.
¡ Place the cookware in the centre of the lower wire rack so that the microwaves can reach the food from all sides.

Warming up food using the microwave mode
Observe the recommended settings for using the mi-
crowave to heat food.
WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!
There is a possibility of delayed boiling when a liquid is
heated. This means that the liquid reaches boiling tem-
perature without the usual steam bubbles rising to the
surface. Even if the container only vibrates a little, the
hot liquid may suddenly boil over and spatter.
Always place a spoon in the container when heating

liquids. This will prevent delayed boiling.
