– If you are not sure about if an ingredient will lose moisture during heating, wrap it tightly
in a foil suitable for MW ovens and pierce the foil in several places.
– When heating potatoes in skin, bread, pastry or moist ingredients, place the ingredients
on a sheet of blotting kitchen paper which will absorb the moisture.
– If you are going to heat the food on a plate, try placing them in an even layer.
– The times given in the literature are valid for heating ingredients at room temperature. If
the ingredients are cold, increase the time.
– Place the heated ingredients on the plate in a way that the heavier, thicker and meatier
parts are on the rim of the plate where they will absorb most of the energy and the
thinner parts in the middle.
VI. HOW TO ACHIEVE THE BEST RESULTS IN THE MW OVEN
Watch the operation of the product
The diagrams and values in this manual were prepared very thoroughly but your success
in preparing food depends on how much of your attention you will pay to the food prepared.
Always watch the food prepared. The MW is equipped with a light which will automatically
light up when put to operation. Thanks to that it is possible to watch the process of
preparation. Consider instructions in literature such as „increase“, „stir“ etc. minimal steps. If
it seems that the meal is prepared unevenly, do what you consider best to repair the flaws.
Cooking ware
Never use metal dishes, dishes with metal decorations or dishes coated with foil.
Microwaves do not penetrate metal. They will reflect off of the metal objects in the oven and
the walls and cause an electric arc – disturbing phenomenon resembling lightning. Most fire-
resistant non-metal dishes can be used in the MW oven safely.
Some dishes may contain materials due to which they become unsuitable for MW cooking.
If you have doubts about whether a specific dish is suitable, you can find out in a simple
way.
Testing dishes for microwave cooking
Test the dishes for MW suitability before using it in the MW oven. Put the tested dish in
the MW oven together with a glass bowl filled with water and turn the oven on for minute
at maximum power. If the water in the glass bowl heats and the tested dish remains cold,
this dish is suitable for microwave cooking. If the tested dish is hot (Beware not to burn
your fingers!), it means that the microwaves were absorbed by the dish and this dish is not
suitable for microwave cooking.
IMPORTANT:
This test and following instructions are meant for kitchenware and cooking in the microwave!
You can use regular baking and cooking kitchenware for classic owens during combi.
cooking or grilling in our microwave. Do not use kitchenware that is not made from heat-
resistant materials (such as plastic, paper, wood...)
CAUTION!
During combination cooking, the microwave cooking takes turnes with grill cooking.
In this case, it is necessarry to choose kitchenware that is acceptable for both cooking
methods. This means, that the kitchenware for combination cooking must be suitable for
microwave cooking as well as heat-resistant for grill cooking (for example glass or china
kitchenware).
