Using your microwave oven
To stop the oven
There are two way to stop the oven whilst it is in use.
1. Press the ‘stop/clear’ button. You can restart the oven by
pressing the ‘start/go’ button. Pressing the ‘stop/clear’
button again will reset the current program.
2. Open the door
You may restart the oven by closing the door and
pressing the ‘start/go’ button. Pressing the ‘stop/clear’
button will cancel the current program.
• Preferably use round or oval casseroles with a lid when
cooking in your microwave oven.
• Cover the food when cooking. Use a glass lid, a plate or
grease proof paper.
• Pastry, bread and the like can be defrosted directly in a
bread basket or on a paper towel.
• If frozen food is heated in its packaging, the packaging
should be opened. Packaging containing metal or
metal decoration must not be used unless specically
recommended for use in the microwave oven. Remove
metal clips and wire ties.
• Put large, thick pieces close to the edge of the casserole
and try to cut the food into even sized pieces. Always
place the food in the centre of the microwave oven.
• The food will be evenly cooked if you stir or turn it a few
times during cooking.
• Always set a shorter cooking time than indicated in your
recipe to avoid over cooking.
• Use little or no water for vegetables.
• Use less salt and spices than for ‘normal’ cooking.
• Allow a few minutes standing time after the oven has
switched off to ensure complete and even cooking
results.
• Always ensure food is sufciently cooked throughout
before serving.
• Use pot holders or gloves when taking dishes and food
out from the oven as they will be hot.
• After a cooking cycle is nished there is often extensive
humidity in the microwave oven cavity. If the door is left
closed after the cooking cycle is nished this humidity
can on built-in models create condensation on the upper
part of the stainless steel frame. In order to vent out this
humidity and not create condensation the microwave
oven fan is programmed to continue operating. The
duration of the fan operation is dependent on the length
of the cooking cycle. If you open the door after the cycle
is nished the fan will stop operating immediately since
the humidity will be vented out through the door.
