quantities. Because of this, the necessary

time and power for defrosting, heating or

cooking can vary. As a rough guide: double

• The microwave creates the heat directly in

the food. Because of this, all places cannot

be heated at the same time. You must stir or

turn the heated dishes, especially with larger

quantities of food.

• The standing time is given in the tables.

Let the food stand, in the appliance or

outside it, so that the heat is distributed

more equally.

• You get better results for rice if you use flat,

wide dishes.
