Safety
If you notice any smoke, switch the oven off or pull out the plug and keep the oven door closed to smother any flames. Do not store anything inside the oven cavity. Do not leave any paper articles, cooking utensils or foodstuffs in the microwave when it is not in use. Warning: liquids and other foodstuffs must not be heated in sealed, airtight containers, since they can explode and damage the appliance. When heating drinks in the microwave, there may be a delay before the liquid begins to bubble when boiling. Care must therefore be taken when handling the cup/container. Do not fry foods in the microwave. Hot oil can damage parts of the appliance and utensils and may cause burns to the skin. Eggs in shells and hard-boiled eggs should not be heated in the microwave, since they can explode even after cooking in the microwave has stopped. Foods with a thick skin, such as potatoes, whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts must be pierced before cooking. The contents of baby bottles and jars of baby food should be stirred or shaken. Danger: please check the temperature of food before giving it to a baby; this can prevent in some cases serious burns. Cooking utensils can become hot as a result of the heat emitted by the heated foods and it may only be possible to touch them with an oven cloth or pan holder. It is important to check whether cooking utensils are suitable for use in microwave ovens. Danger: maintenance or repair work requiring removal of any covers which protect against exposure to microwave energy poses a danger to anyone other than a qualified specialist.

Before you begin Before you begin Basic principles for cooking in the microwave oven
Organise the food well. The thickest parts should be placed at the edge. Take care with the cooking time. Always select the shortest cooking time stated and extend it if necessary. Foods which are cooked for far too long can begin to smoke or burst into flames. Cover the food with a lid during cooking. The lid prevents splattering and helps to ensure that the foods cook evenly. Turn the food once during preparation in the microwave so that e.g. chicken or hamburgers are cooked through more quickly. Large pieces of food, e.g. roasts, must be turned at least once. Change the position of small pieces of food, e.g. meatballs, halfway through the cooking time. Turn the meatballs and move the ones from the centre to the edge. Round/oval cookware is preferable to square/ oblong, since food in the corners can easily get overcooked. The list below is a general guideline for choosing the right cookware.

Tips
Follow the standing times As for defrosting, the so-called standing time is particularly important for cooking in the microwave. The time allowed for even temperature distribution and the associated aftercooking should always be 5 to 10 minutes. Leave the food inside the microwave oven (switched off) or outside the microwave during this standing time. You can season the vegetables after the standing time or add a little butter as required. Please follow the times for preparation in the microwave shown on the packet of ready meals in trays or frozen meals. The details shown in the following table are only intended as a guideline.
