Cooking With The Microwave Oven - Electrolux EMT38409AX Instruction Manual

Important:
The aluminium foil must not come
into contact with the oven cavity
interior as this can cause electrical
arcing.
5. Thick portions of food should be
turned several times.
6. Distribute the frozen food as evenly
as possible since narrow and thin
portions defrost more quickly than
the thicker and broader parts.
7. Fat-rich foods such as butter,
cream cheese and cream should
not be completely defrosted. If they
are kept at room temperature they
will be ready to be served in a few
minutes. With ultra-frozen cream, if
you find small pieces of ice in it,
you should mix these in before
serving.
8. Place poultry on an upturned plate
so that the meat juices can run off
more easily.
9. Bread should be wrapped in a
napkin so that it does not become
too dry.

COOKING WITH THE MICROWAVE OVEN

WARNING!
Read the section "Microwave Safety"
before cooking with your microwave.
Follow these recommendations when
cooking with your microwave:
1. Before heating or cooking foods
with peel or skin (e.g. apples,
tomatoes, potatoes, sausages)
prick them so that they do not
burst. Cut the food up before
starting to prepare it.
2. Before using a container or dish
make sure that it is suitable for
microwave use (see the section on
types of ovenware).
3. When cooking food with very little
moisture (e.g. defrosting bread,
making popcorn, etc.) evaporation
is very quick. The oven then works
10. Turn the food whenever the oven
lets out a beep and the display
flashes the word:
11. Remove frozen food from its
wrapping and do not forget to take
off any metal twist-tags. For
containers that are used to keep
frozen food in the freezer and
which can also be used for heating
and cooking, all you need to do is
take off the lid. For all other cases
you should put the food into
containers that are suitable for
microwave use.
12. The liquid resulting from defrosting,
principally that from poultry, should
be discarded. In no event should
such liquids be allowed to come
into contact with other foods.
13. Do not forget that by using the
defrosting function you need to
allow for standing time until the
food is completely defrosted.
as if it was empty and the food may
burn. The oven and the container
may be damaged in such a
situation. You should therefore set
just the cooking time necessary
and you must keep a close eye on
the cooking process.
4. It is not possible to heat large
quantities of oil (frying) in the
microwave.
5. Remove pre-cooked food from the
containers they come in since
these are not always heat resistant.
Follow the food manufacturer's
instructions.
6. If you have several containers,
such as cups, for example, set
them out uniformly on the turntable
plate.
