[. . . ] Making cooking as much fun as eating Please read this instruction manual. This will ensure that you make full use of all the technical benefits the microwave oven has to offer. It will provide you with important safety information. You will be familiarised with the individual components of your new microwave. [. . . ] Correcting Stopping early You can change the cooking time whenever you like. Microwave operation will stop if you set the timer switch to zero. 15 Notes If you open the oven door while the microwave is in operation, the microwave will pause and the remaining time will be retained in the memory. The microwave will start again once you have closed the door. If two microwave settings and times are shown in the tables, set the first microwave setting and time and then set the second ones after the signal has sounded. Tables and Tips Notes on the tables The following tables provide you with numerous options and settings for the microwave. The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They may vary according to the ovenware used, the quality, temperature and consistency of the food. Time ranges are often specified in the tables. Set the shortest time first and then extend the time if necessary. It may be that you have different quantities from those specified in the tables. A rule of thumb can be applied: Double the amount almost double the time Half the amount half the time. Always place the ovenware on the turntable. Defrosting 16 Place the frozen food in an open container on the turntable. Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with small pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not come into contact with the oven walls. You can remove the foil half way through the defrosting time. Turn or stir the food once or twice during the defrosting time. Large pieces of food should be turned several times. Leave defrosted items to stand at room temperature for a further 10 to 20 minutes so that the temperature can stabilize. With poultry, the giblets can be removed at this point. Meat can still be prepared even if it is frozen in the centre.
