During Operation…
The microwave oven door may be opened at any time
during the cooking operation, in which case:-
- The production of microwaves is immediately
interrupted;
- The Timer is automatically stopped, indicating the
remaining cooking time.
Then, if you wish you may:
- Stir or turn the food, to improve uniform cooking;
- Change the Microwave power level by pressing the
or keys;
- Select another function, by pressing the Function
keys;
- Change the operating time left by turning the
ROTATING KNOB.
- Close the door again and press the START
key.
The oven restarts working.
Interrupting the Operation
To stop the microwave oven before completing its
programmed time, press the STOP key or open the
door.
If you don’t wish to continue cooking the food, close
the door and press the STOP
key again. The oven
emits a sound and the Display show the Clock.
At the end of the functioning time, the microwave oven
stop, emit 3 signal sounds and the Display show the
word “End”. The sound signals are repeated every 30
seconds until the door is opened or the STOP
key
pressed.
Working with Microwaves
Before using any dish, make sure that it is appropriate
for use in microwaves (SEE ADVICE ON THE USE OF
UTENSILS AND RECIPIENTS).
Always make a slit in the food's shell before cooking it.
Whenever heating liquids use a recipient with a large
opening to allow the vapour to escape.
Remember that…
1. Larger quantities of food require more cooking time.
2. The lower the food temperature the more cooking
time is needed.
3. Less dense foods cook faster.
4. An even distribution of the food in the oven
guarantees better results. The cooking of different
types of foods simultaneously is possible by placing
the dense food in an outside circle and the less dense
in the centre of the plate.
5. Better results are achieved by allowing the food to
stand before serving because it continues to cook for
some time after the oven is switched off.
6. The cooking time may be shortened and the liquids
preserved (the food doesn't dry out) by covering the
food. The lids should be transparent to allow the
microwaves through and they should have a small
opening for the vapour to escape.
