Guide to the appliance

Accessories supplied

Optional accessory

Grilling rack

Glass tray

The glass tray is suitable for use with all

cooking functions. It is heat-resistant

and microwave safe.

The grilling rack can be used for all

functions with and without

microwave power, except for

Microwave Solo mode.

When grilling directly on the rack, the

glass tray should be placed underneath

the rack to catch any fat or juices.

To avoid the grilling rack being used

inadvertently with Microwave Solo, it

should not be kept inside the

microwave oven.

Gourmet plate

The gourmet plate is a round, non-stick

grilling plate. It can be used to heat

snacks or small meals quickly whilst

maintaining crispness.

Cover

The cover supplied must only be used

with the Microwave Solo mode.

It prevents the food from drying out and

the oven from becoming dirty, and it

accelerates the heating process.

These products and other useful

accessories can be ordered via the

internet at www.miele-shop.com, from

Miele (see back cover for contact

details) or from your Miele dealer.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing

material

Disposing of your old

appliance

The packaging is designed to protect

the appliance from damage during

transportation. The packaging

materials used are selected from

materials which are environmentally

friendly for disposal and should be

recycled.

Electrical and electronic appliances

often contain valuable materials. They

also contain materials which, if handled

or disposed of incorrectly, could be

potentially hazardous to human health

and to the environment. They are,

however, essential for the correct

functioning of your appliance. Please

do not therefore dispose of it with your

household waste.

Recycling the packaging reduces the

use of raw materials in the

manufacturing process and also

reduces the amount of waste in landfill

sites.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection/recycling

centre, or contact your dealer for

advice.

Ensure that it presents no danger to

children while being stored for

disposal.

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the

appliance unless they are constantly supervised.

Children 8 years and older may only use the appliance

unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and rec-

ognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance

unsupervised.

Warning and Safety instructions

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the appliance and do

not let them play with it.

Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must

be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing,

children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their

head and suffocate.

Danger of burning. Children's skin is more sensitive to high

temperatures than that of adults. When grilling with or without the

microwave function, the oven interior, grill element and oven door

get hot. Great care should be taken to ensure that children do not

touch the appliance when it is in use.

Technical safety

A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible

signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced

by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from

danger.

Warning and Safety instructions

Operating a damaged appliance can result in microwave leakage

and present a hazard to the user. Do not use the appliance if

– the door is warped.

– the door hinges are loose.

– holes or cracks are visible in the casing, the door or the oven

interior walls.

Tampering with electrical connections or components and

mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause

operational faults. Do not open the casing of the appliance.

To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the

connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate

corresponds to the household mains supply. Check that this is the

case before connecting the appliance. Consult a qualified

electrician if in any doubt.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a

multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard

and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

Warning and Safety instructions

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety

requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical

installation tested by a qualified electrician.

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has

been built in.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be

dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised

work. Repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised service

technician.

While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be

undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the

guarantee is invalidated.

Warning and Safety instructions

The appliance must be disconnected from the mains electrical

supply during repair work, cleaning or maintenance.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when

genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty

components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare

parts.

If the appliance is installed behind a kitchen furniture door, it may

only be used with the furniture door open. Do not close the furniture

door while the appliance is in use. Heat and moisture can build up

behind the furniture door which can cause damage to the appliance

and the furniture unit. Only close the door when the appliance is not

in use and has cooled down completely.

The appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.

on a ship).

Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured

if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

,^{Danger of burning. The microwave oven gets hot during}

grilling (with and without the microwave function). You could burn

yourself on the oven interior, grill element, hot food, accessories

and oven door.

Wear oven gloves when working with hot food in the oven, or

placing food in or removing it from the hot oven.

Always ensure that food is sufficiently heated.

Many factors will affect the overall cooking time, including the size

and amount of food, its initial temperature, changes to the recipe,

and the shape and size of the cooking container.

Some foods may contain micro-organisms which are only destroyed

by thorough cooking. Therefore when cooking or reheating food,

e.g. poultry, it is particularly important that food is fully cooked

through (at temperatures over 70 °C for more than 10 minutes). If in

doubt, select a longer cooking or reheating time.

It is important that the heat is allowed to spread evenly

throughout the food being cooked. This can be achieved by stirring

and/or turning the food, and observing a sufficiently long standing

time, which should be added to the time needed for cooking,

reheating or defrosting.

Warning and Safety instructions

Exercise caution when cooking or reheating food with a high

sugar content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If heated for too long, sugar

may caramelise and ignite.

Always remember that times for cooking, reheating and

defrosting in a microwave oven are usually considerably shorter

than with traditional methods of food preparation.

Excessively long cooking times can lead to food drying out and

burning, or could even cause it to catch fire.

Do not dry breadcrumbs, flowers, herbs, etc., in the microwave oven

as these could catch fire.

Do not use the microwave function to heat up cushions or pads

filled with cherry kernels, wheat grains, lavender or gel, such as

those used in aromatherapy. These pads can ignite when heated

even after they have been removed from the microwave oven.

The microwave oven is not suitable for cleaning or disinfecting

items.

Items can get extremely hot and there is a danger of burning when

the item is removed from the appliance. Fire hazard.

The appliance can be damaged if it is used without food being

placed in it or if it is incorrectly loaded. Therefore do not use the

appliance to warm empty dishes or to dry herbs.

Warning and Safety instructions

Always ensure that food has been placed in the microwave oven

and that the turntable is in position before switching on.

Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or

bottles. With baby bottles, the screw top and teat must be loosened.

Otherwise pressure builds up which can cause the bottle or

container to explode, posing a severe risk of injury.

When heating food and drinks, remember that the heat is created

in the food itself, and that the container will normally be cooler. The

dish is only warmed by the heat of the food. Before serving,

remember to allow a sufficient standing time and then always check

the temperature of the food after taking it out of the microwave oven.

The temperature of the container is not an indication of the

temperature of the food or liquid in it. This is particularly important

when preparing food for babies, children, and the elderly or

infirm. Shake or stir baby milk and food thoroughly after heating,

and try it for temperature to ensure that it will not scald the baby.

Warning and Safety instructions

When boiling and in particular when heating up liquid using

microwave power, the boiling point of the liquid may be reached

with the production of typical bubbles. The liquid does not boil

evenly throughout. This so-called 'boiling delay' can cause a sudden

build up of bubbles when the container is removed from the oven or

shaken. This can lead to the liquid boiling over suddenly and

explosively. Danger of burning.

The formation of bubbles can be so strong that the pressure forces

the oven door open. Danger of injury and damage to the appliance.

Stir liquid before cooking/heating it up. After heating it up wait for at

least 20 seconds before removing the container from the oven.

Placing a suitable glass rod or utensil in the container whilst heating

liquid up can also help prevent it from boiling over.

Warning and Safety instructions

To avoid fuelling any flames, do not open the door if smoke

occurs inside the microwave oven. Interrupt the process by

switching the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains

electrical supply. Do not open the door until the smoke has

dispersed.

Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the

appliance unattended when cooking with oil and fat. Do not use the

appliance to fry food. If oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to

put out the flames with water. Disconnect the appliance from the

mains electrical supply and leave the door closed to smother the

flames.

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the

microwave oven when it is in use could catch fire. Do not use the

appliance to heat up the room.

If using alcohol in your recipes, please be aware that high

temperatures can cause the alcohol to vaporise and even to ignite

on hot surfaces. Do not heat undiluted alcohol in the appliance. Fire

hazard.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use the appliance to heat up tins. Pressure can build up

and they may explode.

Cover any food which is left in the microwave oven to be kept hot,

as moisture in the food could lead to corrosion damage in the

appliance and could also damage the control panel, worktop and

surrounding kitchen furniture.

Covering the food also prevents it from drying out.

Try to avoid the interior walls being splashed with food or liquids

containing salt. If it does happen, wipe these away thoroughly to

avoid corrosion on the stainless steel surface.

The oven interior can get hot during use. Danger of burning.

Clean the appliance interior and accessories as soon as they have

cooled down. Waiting too long can make cleaning unnecessarily

difficult and in extreme cases impossible. In certain circumstances,

very heavy soiling can even be dangerous. Fire hazard.

Please follow the instructions on cleaning in "Cleaning and care".

Warning and Safety instructions

Fire hazard. Using microwave power with plastic dishes which

are not microwave safe can cause them to melt and damage the

appliance. Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or

containing metal, aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware,

temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden utensils or cutlery, metal

clips or plastic or paper covered wire ties. Do not use bowls with

milled rims, or plastic pots with the foil lid only partially removed (see

"Suitable containers for microwave ovens"). Such items could be

damaged or cause a fire hazard.

Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when reheating or

cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper or

other inflammable materials. Before using single-use containers

make sure they are suitable for use in microwave ovens. See

"Suitable containers for microwave ovens".

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not reheat food in the microwave oven in heat-retaining bags

intended for normal ovens, such as roasting bags. These heat-

retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminium foil which

reflects microwaves. This reflected energy can, in turn, cause the

outer paper covering to become so hot that it ignites.

Eggs can be cooked without their shells using microwave power

only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first.

The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.

Eggs can only be cooked in their shells using microwave heat in

a specially designed egg-boiling device available from specialist

shops. Hard-boiled eggs should not be reheated in the microwave

oven as this may lead to the eggs bursting even after they have

been taken out of the appliance.

Food with a thick skin or peel, such as tomatoes, sausages,

jacket potatoes and aubergines, should be pierced or cut in several

places to allow steam to escape and prevent the food from bursting.

Warning and Safety instructions

Dishes with hollow knobs or handles are not suitable for use with

microwave power. Moisture which has gathered in the hollow

recesses can cause pressure to build up and the item can explode.

If the hollow recess is sufficiently ventilated, the item could be used.

However, we recommend that you do not use such dishes in the

microwave oven.

To check food temperature, first interrupt the cooking process.

Only use a thermometer specifically approved for food use to

measure the temperature of the food. Do not use a thermometer

containing mercury or liquid as these are not suitable for use with

very high temperatures and break very easily.

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean the microwave

oven. Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short

circuit.

Stainless steel surfaces

Adhesives will damage the stainless steel surface and cause it to

lose its protection against soiling. Do not use sticky notes,

transparent adhesive tape, masking tape or other types of adhesive

on the stainless steel surface.

The surface is susceptible to scratching. Even magnets can

cause scratching.

Warning and Safety instructions

Accessories

Use only genuine original Miele accessories. Using spare parts or

accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee,

and Miele cannot accept liability.

The rack and gourmet plate supplied are designed for use with

microwave power and can be used for grilling with or without the

microwave function. They must not, however, be used at the same

time as this would damage the gourmet plate.

Always place the gourmet plate directly on the turntable.

The gourmet plate gets extremely hot when in use. Always use

oven gloves when handling it to avoid burns. Place the hot gourmet

plate on a suitable heat-resistant mat or pot rest.

The rack gets hot during grilling (with and without the microwave

function). Danger of burning.

Do not use the cover with the gourmet plate, as the cover will get

too hot.

Warning and Safety instructions

Optional accessories

Do not place the hot glass tray (or any other hot cooking

containers) on a cold surface, such as a tiled or granite worktop.

The glass tray or container could crack or shatter. Use a suitable

heat-resistant mat or pot rest.

How the microwave oven works

In a microwave oven there is a high-

frequency tube called a magnetron.

This converts electrical energy into

microwaves. These microwaves are

As heat is produced directly in the

food,

– food can generally be cooked

without adding much liquid or

distributed evenly throughout the oven

interior, and rebound off the metal sides

of the oven interior to reach the food

from all sides. Microwave distribution is

improved with the turntable engaged.

cooking oil.

– cooking, reheating and defrosting in

a microwave oven is quicker than

using conventional methods.

In order for microwaves to reach the

food, they must be able to penetrate

the cooking utensil being used.

– nutrients, such as vitamins and

minerals, are generally retained.

– the colour, texture and taste of food

are not impaired.

Microwaves can penetrate porcelain,

glass, cardboard and plastics, but not

metal. Do not, therefore, use utensils

made of metal, or which contain metal,

for example in the form of gold or silver

trim. The metal reflects the microwaves

and this could cause sparking. The

microwaves cannot be absorbed.

Microwaves stop being produced as

soon as the cooking process is

interrupted or the appliance door is

opened.

When the appliance is in operation, the

closed, sealed door prevents

microwaves escaping from the

appliance.

Microwaves pass through a suitable

container and find their way directly into

the food. All food contains moisture

molecules which, when subjected to

microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5

thousand million times a second. The

friction caused by this vibration creates

heat, which first starts developing

around the outside of the food and then

slowly penetrates towards the centre.

The moisture, fat and sugar content of

food will affect the speed at which it is

cooked.

Modes of operation

What can a microwave oven

do?

Microwave oven functions

Microwave Solo mode

In the microwave oven, food is cooked,

reheated or defrosted quickly.

Suitable for defrosting, reheating and

cooking.

You can use the microwave oven in the

following ways:

Grilling

– Food can be defrosted, reheated or

cooked by entering a power setting

and a duration.

Ideal for grilling thin cuts of meat, e.g.

steak or sausages.

Combination mode (Microwave +

Grill)

– Deep-frozen, ready-made meals can

be defrosted and then reheated or

cooked.

Ideal for browning dishes with

toppings. The microwave cooks the

food, and the grill browns it.

– The microwave oven can also be

used for other tasks, e.g. for proving

dough, melting chocolate and butter,

dissolving gelatine etc.

Automatic programmes

You can choose from the following

automatic programmes:

– five defrosting programmes

(N: Ad 1 to Ad 5),

– four cooking programmes for frozen

food

(N °: AC 1 to AC 4 ),

– and eight cooking programmes for

fresh food

(°: AC 1 to AC 8).

These programmes are weight

dependent. You enter the weight of the

food and then the cooking duration is

calculated automatically. The weight of

the food can be displayed as metric (g)

or imperial (lb). See "Changing settings"

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Microwaves

Material and shape

The material and shape of the

containers used affect cooking results

and times. Heat distribution is more

even in round and oval shaped flat

containers than in rectangular

containers, providing better results.

Containers and lids with hollow

handles or knobs in which moisture

– are reflected by metal,

can collect are unsuitable, unless

the hollowed areas are adequately

vented.

Without vent holes pressure can

build up, causing the container to

crack or shatter with the danger of

injury.

Metal

Metal containers, aluminium foil,

metal cutlery, and china with

metallic decoration such as gold

rims or cobalt blue must not be used

with microwave mode.

– pass through glass, porcelain,

plastic and card,

Metal reflects microwaves and

obstructs the cooking process.

Also, avoid using plastic pots where

the foil lid has not be completely

removed.

– and are absorbed by food.

,^{Fire hazard!}

Containers which are not suitable for

use in microwave ovens can be

badly damaged and can cause

damage to the appliance if used.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Exceptions:

Glassware

– Ready-meals in aluminium foil

dishes.

Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass

are ideal for use in the microwave oven.

These can be defrosted and reheated

in the microwave oven, if

Crystal glass is unsuitable as it

contains lead which could cause the

glass to crack in the microwave

oven.

recommended by the manufacturer.

Important: Remove the lid and make

sure the foil dish is at least 2 cm from

the oven walls at all times. As food is

only heated from the top, it is better to

remove the food from the aluminium foil

container and transfer it to a dish

suitable for a microwave oven. The heat

distribution will be more even.

Porcelain

Porcelain is a suitable material.

Do not use porcelain with gold or

silver edging or items with hollow

knobs or handles, as insufficient

ventilation may cause pressure.

Do not place aluminium foil dishes

on the rack in case the dish sparks

or arcs. If sparks occur, transfer

food to a microwave safe container.

Earthenware

Decorated earthenware is only suitable

if the decoration is beneath an all-over

glaze.

– Pieces of aluminium foil

For even defrosting and to avoid

overcooking unevenly shaped cuts of

meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of

aluminium foil may be used to mask

wingtips or other thin parts for the last

few minutes of the programme.

Earthenware can get very hot and

may crack.

Glazes and colours

Some glazes and colours contain

metals which make them unsuitable

for use in a microwave oven.

Make sure that the aluminium foil is

at least 2 cm from the oven walls at

all times. It must not touch the walls.

Wood

– Metal meat skewers or clamps

Wooden dishes are not suitable.

Moisture contained in the wood

evaporates when exposed to

microwave energy, causing the

wood to dry and crack.

These should only be used if they are

very small in comparison to the size of

the cut of meat.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Plastics

Disposable containers

Only those plastic disposable

Plastics must only be used with

Microwave Solo.

containers which are specified by the

manufacturer as suitable for use in a

microwave oven may be used.

They must be heat-resistant to a

minimum of 110 °C. Otherwise the

plastic may melt and fuse with the

food.

Do not leave the oven unattended

when reheating or cooking food in

disposable containers made of

plastic, paper or other inflammable

materials.

Special plastic utensils designed for

use in microwave ovens are available

from retail outlets.

Melamine is not suitable for use in this

oven. Melamine absorbs microwave

energy and gets hot. When purchasing

plasticware, make sure that it is suitable

for use in a microwave oven.

Disposable containers are not always

recyclable or biodegradable.

Disposable containers, such as trays

made from polystyrene, can only be

used for very short, timed warming and

reheating of food.

Plastic boiling bags can be used for

cooking and reheating. They should

be pierced beforehand so that

steam can escape. This prevents a

build-up of pressure and reduces

the risk of the bag bursting.

There are also special steaming

bags available which do not need to

be pierced. Please follow

instructions given on the packet.

Do not use metal clips, plastic clips

containing metal parts, or paper ties

containing wire. There is a danger

that they will ignite when heated.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens

Testing dishes for their

suitability

If in doubt as to whether glass,

earthenware or porcelain plates or

dishes are suitable for use in a

microwave oven, a simple test can be

performed:

^ Place the item you wish to test in the

centre of the oven, fill a suitable glass

with water and also place this in the

oven.

^ Close the door.

^ Turn the power selector to 800 W.

^ Enter a time of 30 seconds with the

time selector.

^ Press the Start button.

At the end of the test, the water in

the glass should be warm and the

dish cool. If the dish is hot, it would

Operation - Grilling

The grill has 4 settings: grill solo and in

combination with the microwave

function using 3 microwave/grill

settings.

,^{Caution. The rack and container}

(and glass tray) become hot during

use. Danger of burning.

If the total grilling duration required is

less than 15 minutes, the grill should be

pre-heated for approx. 5 minutes

before placing food under it.

The container (and glass tray) and grill

rack will be easier to clean if washed in

soapy water immediately after grilling.

Thin, flat cuts of fish and meat should

usually be turned half way through

grilling for even results. Larger,

chunkier pieces should be turned

several times.

Grilling without the Microwave

function

Ideal for grilling thin cuts of meat, e.g.

steak or sausages.

Grilling durations depend on the type

and thickness of the food and on the

user's preference for a rare or well-

cooked result.

When grilling directly on the rack, a

heat-resistant, microwave safe

container should be placed underneath

the rack to catch any fat or juices.

Note: The glass tray available from

Miele as an optional extra is ideal for

this.

^ Turn the power selector to n.

The grill symbol n will light up in the

display. 0:00 will flash.

The gourmet plate supplied is not

suitable for catching fat as it could

overheat when empty, resulting in

damage to the coating of the plate.

^ Select a cooking duration using the

time selector.

^ Press the Start button.

An audible tone will sound at the end

of the process.

^ Place the food in a suitable dish.

^ Place the rack and a heat-resistant,

microwave safe container or the

Gourmet plate

Use

^ Place the gourmet plate directly on

the turntable.

The gourmet plate gets extremely

hot when in use. Always use oven

gloves when handling it to avoid

burns. Place it on a suitable heat-

resistant mat or pot rest.

Do not place it on the rack. Make

sure there is a gap of approx. 2 cm

between the gourmet plate and the

interior walls of the microwave oven,

otherwise sparking could occur and

damage the gourmet plate and the

oven interior.

Before using for the first time

Before using the gourmet plate for the

first time, fill it with 400 ml water and

add 3 to 4 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice.

Heat for 5 minutes at 450 W + Grill L.

^ Heat the plate up at 450 W + Grill L

for up to 5 minutes.

Do not overheat the empty gourmet

plate, otherwise the coating could

be damaged. For this reason do not

place the gourmet plate under the

rack to catch the fat when grilling.

The gourmet plate has an easy to

clean non-stick coating so that food

can be removed easily. The coating

is susceptible to cuts and scratches.

Therefore do not cut food up directly

on the plate. Use wooden or plastic

utensils to mix or turn food.

If using oil, you can either heat up the

oil on the gourmet plate, or you can

heat the oil separately and then add it

to the plate.

Metallic or sharp objects can

damage the coating.

Butter, however, should always be

added after heating up the gourmet

plate. It has a lower burning point than

oil and would get too dark or burn if

added too soon.

Searing / browning food

Because food does not stick to the non-

stick coating, only very little fat or oil is

necessary when cooking with this dish.

This has the added advantage of

Always dry meat, poultry, fish and

vegetables thoroughly before placing

them on the gourmet plate.

keeping down the calorie count.

Never leave the gourmet plate

unattended when cooking with oil or

fats, as these can overheat and

catch fire. Fire hazard.

Do not use the gourmet plate to

cook eggs or reheat cooked eggs.

The eggs can explode.

^ When using the gourmet plate, make

sure that the food is ready to transfer

to the gourmet plate as soon as it has

heated up.

levels to reheat food:

,^{Always remove the lids from}

jars, especially jars of baby food.

Drinks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 800 W

Food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 600 W

Food for babies and toddlers . . . 450 W

Loosen the screw cap with the

rubber teat before warming baby

bottles.

,^{We do not recommend heating}

or reheating food or drinks for

babies or young children in the

microwave oven. Any decision to do

this is the responsibility of the user,

and should only be done with the

utmost care. Pasteurised or

Stirring liquid before it heats up can

help to prevent it boiling over.

After heating it up wait for at least 20

seconds before removing the

container from the oven. Placing a

suitable glass rod or utensil in the

container whilst heating liquid can

also help prevent the liquid from

boiling over.

sterilised cooked food should be

gently heated for ¹/₂to 1 minute at

450 W, and tasted to make sure it is

not too hot for a baby's palate

before serving. When reheating

other food or drink, heat to a high

temperature and allow to cool to a

suitable heat for eating. For formula

milk follow the manufacturer's

instructions.

Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a

microwave oven, even without the

shell. The eggs can burst.

Food taken straight from the refrigerator

will take longer to reheat than food

stored at room temperature. The

duration required depends on the

nature of the food, its initial temperature

and the amount to be cooked.

Tips on reheating

Always use a lid or cover for reheating

food, except when a drier finish is

needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.

Always ensure that food is

sufficiently cooked or reheated.

If in any doubt that a sufficiently high

temperature has been reached,

continue reheating for a little longer.

Stir or turn food from time to time during

cooking. Stir the food from the outside

towards the middle, as food heats more

quickly from the outside.

Reheating

After reheating

Be careful when removing a dish

from the oven. It may be hot.

Although heat is not normally produced

in the container itself by the

microwaves (apart from stoneware),

heat transfer from the food to the

container may be considerable, making

the container itself hot.

Allow food to stand for a few minutes at

room temperature at the end of a

reheating process to enable the heat to

spread evenly throughout the food.

,^{After reheating food, especially}

food for babies and small children,

stir the food or shake the container

and check that the temperature

does not pose any danger. Double

check after it has been left to stand.

Cooking

Place the food in a microwave safe

container and cover it.

Food with a thick skin or peel, such

as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes

and aubergines, should be pierced or

the skin cut in several places before

cooking to allow steam to escape and

to prevent the food from bursting.

When cooking, it is a good idea to

select a power level of 800 W to start

with and then when the food is hot

reduce the power level to 450 W for

more gentle continued cooking.

Eggs can only be cooked in their

shells in the microwave oven in a

specially designed egg-boiling

device available from specialist

shops.

For dishes such as rice or semolina

pudding, first select a power level of

800 W, and then reduce it to 150 W for

simmering.

Eggs can burst, even after they

have been taken out of the oven.

Tips on cooking

Vegetable cooking durations depend

on the texture of the vegetable.

Fresh vegetables contain more water

than vegetables which have been

stored, and usually cook more quickly.

Add a little water to vegetables which

have been kept stored.

Eggs can be cooked without their shells

in the microwave oven only if the yolk

membrane has been punctured several

times first.

The pressure could otherwise cause

the egg yolk to explode.

Food taken straight from the refrigerator

takes longer to cook than food which

has been kept at room temperature.

After cooking

Be careful when removing a dish

from the oven. It may be hot.

Stir or turn food from time to time during

cooking to help it cook more evenly.

Although heat is not normally produced

in the container itself by the

Ensure that food such as meat and

fish are thoroughly cooked for an

appropriate length of time.

microwaves (apart from stoneware),

heat transfer from the food to the

container may be considerable, making

the container itself hot.

Allow food to stand for a few minutes at

room temperature at the end of cooking

to enable the heat to spread evenly

throughout the food.

defrosted food. Consume defrosted

food as soon as possible, as it will

lose its nutritional value and spoil if

left for too long. Defrosted food may

only be re-frozen after it has been

cooked.

Deep-frozen food can be defrosted and

immediately reheated or cooked.

After defrosting, select 800 W followed

by 450 W.

Remove the food from its packaging

and place in a covered microwave safe

container for defrosting and reheating

or cooking. Exception: minced meat

should be left uncovered while cooking.

Defrost

settings to defrost food:

Soups, stew and vegetables should be

stirred several times during the

process. Carefully separate and turn

slices of meat halfway through. Turn

pieces of fish at the halfway stage.

– 150 W

for defrosting everything else.

After defrosting followed by

reheating or cooking

Remove the food from its packaging

and place in a microwave safe

container. Do not cover. Turn, stir or

separate the food about halfway

through defrosting.

Allow the food to stand at room

temperature for a few minutes to enable

the heat to spread evenly throughout

the food.

To defrost meat, unpack the frozen

meat and place it on an upturned plate

in a glass or china container so that the

meat juice can run off and be collected.

Turn halfway through defrosting.

It is particularly important to observe

food hygiene rules when defrosting

poultry. Do not use the liquid from

the defrosted poultry. Pour it away,

and wash the tray, the sink and your

hands. Danger of salmonella

poisoning.

Fish does not need to be fully defrosted

before cooking. Defrost so that the

surface is sufficiently soft to take herbs

and seasoning.

transferred to the centre of the food.

This may leave the food warm in the

middle but cool on the outside. When
