oven use
HOW A MICROWAVE OVEN WORKS
Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables
food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour.
You can use your microwave oven to:
•
Defrost
•
Reheat
•
Cook
Cookingprinciple.
1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron reflected at
cavity and are distributed uniformly as the food rotates on
the turntable. The food is thus cooked evenly.
2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of
about1inch(2.5cm).Cookingthencontinuesastheheatis
dissipated within the food.
3. Cookingtimesvaryaccordingtothecontainerusedandthe
properties of the food:
•
Quantity and density
•
Water content
•
Initialtemperature(refrigeratedornot)
As the centre of the food is cooked by heat dissipation, cooking continues even
when you have taken the food out of the oven. Standing times specified in recipes
and in this booklet must therefore be respected to ensure:
•
Even cooking of the food right to the centre.
•
The same temperature throughout the food.

Auto sensor cooking instructions
The Auto Sensor allows you to cook your food automatically by detecting the amount of
gases generated from the food while cooking.
•
When cooking food, many kinds of gases are generated.
The Auto Sensor determines the proper time and power level by detecting these
gases from the food, eliminating the need to set the cooking time and power level.
•
WhenyoucoveracontainerwithitslidorplasticwrapduringSensorCooking,the
Auto Sensor will detect the gases generated after the container has been saturated
with steam.
•
Shortly before cooking ends, the remaining cooking time will begin its count down.
This will be a good time for you to rotate or stir the food for even cooking if it is
necessary.
•
Before auto sensor cooking food may be seasoned with herbs, spices or browning
sauces. A word of caution though, salt or sugar may cause burn spots on food so
these ingredients should be added after cooking.
Utensils & Cover for sensor cooking
•
To obtain good cooking results with this function, follow the directions for selecting
appropriate containers and covers in the charts in this book.
•
Always use microwave-safe containers and cover them with their lids or with plastic
wrap. When using plastic wrap, turn back one corner to allow steam to escape at the
proper rate.
•
Always cover with the lid intended for the utensil being used. If the utensil does not
have its own lid, use plastic wrap.
•
Fill containers at least half full.
•
Foods that require stirring or rotating should be stirred or turned toward the end of
theSensorCookcycle,afterthetimehasstartedtocountdownonthedisplay.

Important
•
After installing the oven and plugging into an electrical outlet, do not unplug the
power cord. The gas sensor needs time to stabilize in order to cook satisfactorily.
•
It is not advisable to use the auto sensor cooking feature on a continuous cooking
operation, i.e. one cooking operation immediately after another.
•
Install the oven in a well ventilated location for proper cooling and airflow and to
ensure the sensor will operate accurately.
•
To avoid poor results, do not use the Auto sensor when the room ambient
temperature is too high or too low.
•
Do not use volatile detergent to clean your oven. Gas resulting from this detergent
may aect the sensor.
•
Avoid placing the oven near high moisture or gas emitting appliances, since this will
interfere with the proper performance of the Auto Sensor.
•
Always keep the inside of the oven clean. Wipe all spills with a damp cloth. This oven
is designed for household use only.

CHOOSING THE ACCESSORIES
Traditional convection cooking does require cookware. You
should, however, use only cookware that you would use in your
normal oven.
Microwave-safe containers are not usually suitable for
convection cooking; don’t use plastic containers, dishes, paper
cups, towels, etc.
Ifyouwishtoselectacombinedcookingmode(microwaveandgrillorconvection),use
only recipients that are microwave-safe and oven-proof.

05 COOKWARE GUIDE
USING THE CRUSTY PLATE
(ONLY MC28H5125C* MODEL USE)
This crusty plate allows you to brown food not only on the top with the grill, but also the
bottom of the food turns crispy and brown due to the high temperature of the crusty
plate. The crusty plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc.
1. Place the crusty plate directly on the turntable and preheat it
withhighestMicrowave-Grill-Combination[600W+Grill]by
following the times and instructions in the chart.
2. Brush the plate with oil if you are cooking food, such as
bacon and eggs, in order to brown the food nicely.
3. Place the food on the crusty plate.
4. Placethecrustyplateonthemetalrack(orturntable)inthe
microwave.
5. Select the appropriate cooking time and power.
Always use oven gloves to take out the crusty plate, as will become very hot.
Please note that the crusty plate has a teflon layer which is not scratch-resistant. Do
not use any sharp objects like a knife to cut on the crusty plate.
Do not place any objects on the crusty plate that are not heat-resistant.
Never place the crusty plate in the oven without turntable.
Cleanthecrustyplatewithwarmwateranddetergentandrinseowithcleanwater.
Do not use a scrubbing brush or a hard sponge otherwise the top layer will be
damaged.
Please note that the crust plate is not dish washer-safe.

cooking guide
MICROWAVES
Microwave energy actually penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and
sugar content.
The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of
these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food.
COOKING
Cookware for microwave cooking:
Cookwaremustallowmicrowaveenergytopassthroughitformaximumeciency.
Microwaves are reflected by metal, such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper, but
they can penetrate through ceramic, glass, porcelain and plastic as well as paper and
wood. So food must never be cooked in metal containers.
Food suitable for microwave cooking:
Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen
vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups,
steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven.
Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be
prepared on a hob. Melting butter or chocolate, for example (see the chapter with tips,
techniquesandhints).
Covering during cooking
To cover the food during cooking is very important, as the evaporated water rises as
steam and contributes to cooking process. Food can be covered in dierent ways: e.g.
with a ceramic plate, plastic cover or microwave suitable cling film.
Standing times
After cooking is over food the standing time is important to allow the temperature to even
out within the food.

06 COOKING GUIDE
REHEATING
Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time that conventional ovens
hobs normally take.
Use the power levels and reheating times in the following chart as a guide. The times in
thechartconsiderliquidswitharoomtemperatureofabout+18to+20°Corachilled
foodwithatemperatureofabout+5to+7°C.
Arranging and covering
Avoid reheating large items such as joint of meat - they tend to overcook and dry out
beforethecentreispipinghot.Reheatingsmallpieceswillbemoresuccessful.
Power levels and stirring
Some foods can be reheated using 900 W power while others should be reheated using
600 W, 450 W or even 300 W.
Checkthetablesforguidance.
In general, it is better to reheat food using a lower power level, if the food is delicate, in
largequantities,orifitislikelytoheatupveryquickly(mincepies,forexample).
Stir well or turn food over during reheating for best results. When possible, stir again
before serving.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods. To prevent eruptive boiling
of liquids and possible scalding, stir before, during and after heating. Keep them in the
microwave oven during standing time. We recommend putting a plastic spoon or glass
stickintotheliquids.Avoidoverheating(andthereforespoiling)thefood.Itispreferableto
underestimate cooking time and add extra heating time, if necessary.
Heating and standing times
When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken - for
future reference.
Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.
Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out.
The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is
recommended in the chart.
Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the
safety precautions.
REHEATING LIQUIDS
Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched o
to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir
after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon
or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.

06 COOKING GUIDE
DEFROSTING
Microwaves are an excellent way of defrosting frozen food. Microwaves gently defrost
frozen food in a short period of time. This can be of great advantage, if unexpected
guests suddenly show up.
Frozenpoultrymustbethoroughlythawedbeforecooking.Removeanymetaltiesand
take it out of any wrapping to allow thawed liquid to drain away.
Put the frozen food on a dish without cover. Turn over half way, drain o any liquid and
removeanygibletsassoonaspossible.Checkthefoodoccasionallytomakesurethatit
does not feel warm.
If smaller and thinner parts of the frozen food start to warm up, they can be shield by
wrapping very small strips of aluminium foil around them during defrosting.
Should poultry start to warm up on the outer surface, stop thawing and allow it to stand
for 20 minutes before continuing.
Leave the fish, meat and poultry to stand in order to complete defrosting. The standing
time for complete defrosting will vary depending on the quantity defrosted. Please refer to
the table below.
Hint: Flat food defrosts better than thick and smaller quantities need less time
thanbiggerones.Rememberthishintwhilefreezinganddefrostingfood.
Fordefrostingoffrozenfoodwithatemperatureofabout-18to-20°C,usethefollowing

GRILL
The grill-heating element is located underneath the ceiling of the cavity. It operates while
the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The turntable’s rotation makes the food
brown more evenly. Preheating the grill for 3-5 minutes will make the food brown more
quickly.
Cookware for grilling:
Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic cookware,
as it can melt.
Food suitable for grilling:
Chops,sausages,steaks,hamburgers,baconandgammonrashers,thinshportions,
sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings.
Important remark:
Whenever the grill only mode is used, please remember that food must be placed on the
high rack, unless another instruction is recommended.
MICROWAVE + GRILL
This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the speed
of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the turntable is
rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly. Three combination
modes are available with this model:
600W+Grill,450W+Grilland300W+Grill.
Cookware for cooking with microwave + grill
Pleaseusecookwarethatmicrowavescanpassthrough.Cookwareshouldbe

portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them
overhalfwaythroughcooking).Pleaserefertothegrilltableforfurtherdetails.
Important remark:
