Operating the microwave without food: Operating the
■
appliance without food in the cooking compartment may lead
to overloading. Never switch on the appliance unless there is
food in the cooking compartment. An exception to this rule is
a short crockery test (see the section "Microwave, suitable
crockery").
Never use the enamel baking tray when cooking with
■
microwave operation. It will result in a technical fault.
Energy and environment tips
Here you can find tips on how to save energy when baking and
roasting and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
Only preheat the oven if this is specified in the recipe or in the
operating instruction tables.
Use dark, black lacquered or enamelled baking tins. They
absorb the heat particularly well.
Open the appliance door as little as possible during cooking,
baking or roasting.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other. The cooking
compartment is still warm. This may reduce the baking time for
the second cake.
