General guidelines
CLEANING
As microwaves work on food
particles, keep your oven clean at all
times. Stubborn spots of food can be
removed by using a microwave spray
cleaner, sprayed onto a soft cloth.
Always wipe the oven dry after
cleaning.
Refer to “Care of your oven” on page
43 for details on cleaning.
The warranty only applies if the
product has been used in accordance
with the operating instructions under
normal use and reasonable care.
STANDING TIME
Dense foods e.g. meat, jacket potatoes
and cakes, require standing time
(inside or outside of the oven) after
cooking, to allow heat to nish
conducting to the centre of the food to
cook through completely. Wrap meat
joints and jacket potatoes in aluminium
foil while standing. Meat joints need
approx. 10–15 minutes, jacket potatoes
5 minutes. Other foods such as plated
meals, vegetables, sh etc. require
2–5 minutes standing. If food is not
cooked after standing time, return to
the oven and cook for additional time.
After defrosting food, standing time
should also be allowed.
QUANTITY
Small quantities cook faster than large
quantities, and small meals will reheat
more quickly than large portions.
SPACING
Foods cook more quickly and evenly if
spaced apart. NEVER pile foods on top
of each other.
PIERCING
The skin or membrane on some foods
will cause steam to build up during
cooking.
These foods must be pierced or a strip
of skin should be peeled off before
cooking to allow the steam to escape.
Eggs, potatoes, apples, sausages etc,
will all need to be pierced before
cooking. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BOIL
EGGS IN THEIR SHELLS.
COVERING
Cover foods with microwave cling lm
or a lid. Cover sh, vegetables,
casseroles, soups. Do not cover cakes,
sauces, jacket potatoes or pastry
items.
