1) Cooking Times
• The cooking time depends on the
condition, temperature, amount of food
and on the type of cookware.
• Begin with the minimum cooking time to
help prevent overcooking. If the food is
not sufficiently cooked you can always
cook it for a little longer.
N.B.: If the recommended cooking
times are exceeded the food will be
spoiled and in extreme
circumstances could catch fire and
possibly damage the interior of the
oven.
2) Small Quantities of Foods
• Small quantities of food or foods with
low moisture content can
burn, dry out or catch on
fire if cooked too long. If
materials inside the oven
should ignite, keep the
oven door closed, turn the
oven off and remove the
plug from the socket.
3) Eggs
• Do not cook eggs in their shells and
whole hard-boiled eggs by
MICROWAVE. Pressure may build up
and the eggs may explode, even after
the microwave heating has ended.
4) Piercing Skin
• Food with non porous skins, such as
potatoes, egg yolks and sausages must
be pierced before cooking by
MICROWAVE to prevent bursting.
5) Meat Thermometer
• Use a meat thermometer to check the
degree of cooking of roasts and poultry
only when the meat has been removed
from the oven. Do not use a
conventional meat thermometer in the
microwave oven because it may cause
sparking.
6) Liquids
• When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces
and beverages in your microwave oven,
overheating the liquid beyond boiling
point can occur without evidence of
bubbling. This could result in a sudden
boil over of the hot liquid.

container in the oven and again
halfway through the cooking time.
d)After heating, allow it to stand in the
