User manual
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned
plate with a container below it so that the defrosting
liquid collects in the container.
• Turn the food after half of the defrosting time. If
possible, divide and then remove the pieces that
started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau, quark
• Do not fully defrost the food in the appliance, but let
it defrost at room temperature. This gives a more
even result. Fully remove all metal or aluminium
packaging before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables, which are
to be further prepared while raw, in the appliance.
Let them defrost at room temperature.
• You can use a higher microwave power to cook fruit
and vegetables without defrosting them first.
Ready meals
• You can prepare ready meals in the appliance only
if their packaging is suitable for microwave use.
• You must follow the manufacturer's instructions
printed on the packaging (e.g. remove the metal
cover and pierce the plastic film).
