Operation - Automatic programmes

All of the automatic programmes are weight dependent.

After selecting a programme, enter the weight of the food. The microwave automatically calculates the time according to the weight given.

After cooking, allow the food to stand at room temperature for the suggested number of minutes ("standing time") to allow the heat to be distributed evenly through the food.

Automatic defrosting

There are four programmes for defrosting different types of food (button N). The standing time for each programme is approx. 10 minutes.

Ad 1 0 Steak, cutlets (0.2 -1.0 kg) Ad 2 1 Mince (0.2 -1.0 kg)

Ad 3 T Cakes (0.1 - 1.4 kg)

Ad 4 k Bread (0.1 - 1.0 kg)

Automatic cooking

There is one programme for frozen food, and there are five programmes for fresh food. The standing time for each of these programmes is approx. 2 minutes.
