The microwave

Microwaves are converted to heat in foodstuffs. You will find 

information about ovenware and how to set the microwave.

Note: 

In the 

Tested for you in our cooking studio

 section, you 

will find examples for defrosting, heating and cooking with the 

microwave oven.
Try out the microwave straight away. You could heat up a cup 

of water for your tea, for example.
Use a large cup without any decorative gold or silver trim and 

place a teaspoon in it. Place the cup containing the water on 

the turntable.

1.

Set the power selector to 800 W.

2.

Use the time switch to set 2 minutes.

A signal sounds after 2 minutes. The water for the tea is hot.
As you are drinking your tea, please take time to read again the 

safety information that can be found at the front of the 

instruction manual. This is very important.

Notes regarding ovenware

Suitable ovenware

Suitable dishes are heat-resistant ovenware made of glass, 

glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic. 

These materials allow microwaves to pass through.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you having to 

transfer food from one dish to another. You should only use 

ovenware with decorative gold or silver trim if the manufacturer 

guarantees that they are suitable for use in microwaves.

Unsuitable ovenware

Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves 

to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain 

cold.

Caution!

 Creation of sparks: metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass – must be 

kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the 

door. Sparks could destroy the glass on the inside of the door.

Ovenware test

Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The 

following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your 

ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave: 

1.

Heat the empty ovenware at maximum power for ½ to 

1 minute.

2.

Check the temperature occasionally during that time.

The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are 

generated.

Setting the microwave

1.

Set the power selector to the required microwave power 

setting.

2.

Set a cooking time using the time switch. 

Note: 

If the cooking time is less than two minutes, first turn to 

a longer time and then immediately back to the desired time.

The set cooking time counts down. 
A signal sounds once the time has elapsed.

Notes

■

If you open the appliance door during operation, microwave 

operation is interrupted and the set time maintained. When 

closed again, operation resumes.

■

In the tables, there are two microwave power settings and 

times: set the first microwave power setting and time initially, 

and after the signal, set the second.

Changing the cooking time

This can be done at any time. Change the cooking time using 

the time switch.

Cancelling operation

Microwave operation is ended when you set the time switch to 

0.

Care and cleaning

With careful care and cleaning your microwave oven will retain 

its looks and remain good order. We will explain here how you 

should care for and clean your appliance correctly.

: 

Risk of short circuit!

Never use high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners to clean 
the oven.

: 

Risk of burns!

Never clean the appliance immediately after switching off. Let 
the appliance cool down. 

: 

Risk of electric shock!

Do not immerse the appliance in water or clean under a jet of 
water.

Surfaces are different, and damage caused by using the wrong 

cleaning agent can be avoided by observing the information in 

the table below.

Do not use

■

sharp or abrasive cleaning agents. 

The surface could be damaged. If such a substance comes 

into contact with the front of the appliance, wash it off 

immediately with water.

metal or glass scrapers to clean the glass in the appliance 

door.
