Operation
30
A duration of between 10seconds and
90minutes can be set. Exception: If the
maximum microwave power level has
been selected, a maximum cooking
duration of only 15minutes can be set.
If you then continue to select full power,
the power level may reduce to 600W,
and this is shown in the display (protec-
tion against overheating).
The duration required depends on:
- the initial temperature of the food.
Food taken straight from the refriger-
ator takes longer to cook than food
which has been kept at room temper-
ature.
- the type and texture of the food.
Fresh vegetables contain more water
and cook more quickly than stored
vegetables.
- the frequency of stirring or turning
the food.
Frequent stirring or turning heats the
food more evenly, and it is therefore
ready in a shorter time.
- the amount of food.
As a general rule, allow approx. time
and a half for double the quantity
and for a smaller quantity, possibly
shorten the duration.
- the shape and material of the con-
tainer.
