ABOUT YOUR OVEN

This Operation Manual is valuable. Read it carefully and

always save it for reference.

NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor

turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed

in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and

counterclockwise.

ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the

microwave energy.

When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may

hear the magnetron cycling on and off. It is normal for the

exterior of the oven to be warm to the touch when cooking or

reheating.

Condensation is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room

humidity and the moisture in food will inuence the amount

of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered

foods will not cause as much condensation as uncovered

ones. Vents on the oven back must not be blocked.

The oven is for food preparation only. It should not be used to

dry clothes or newspapers.

Your oven is rated 1100 watts by using the IEC Test Procedure.

In using recipes or package directions, check food a minute or

two before the minimum time and add time accordingly.

ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already

in your kitchen can be used successfully in your new microwave

oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls

during cooking.

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and

reheating:

• glass ceramic (Pyroceram

), such as Corningware

• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex

)

• microwave-safe plastics

• paper plates

• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain

• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating

time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating of foods

that have little fat or sugar in them:

• wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

• metal pans and bakeware

• dishes with metallic trim

• non-heat-resistant glass

• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

• recycled paper products

• brown paper bags

• food storage bags

• metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving,

place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for

30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.

The following coverings are ideal:

• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and

absorbing fat while cooking bacon.

• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.

• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can

be used for cooking and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic

wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice because

heat is kept near the food to hasten cooking.

• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats or foods that

need tenderizing. DO NOT use metal twist ties. Remember

to slit bag so steam can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your microwave oven:

• Small at pieces of aluminum foil placed smoothly on the

food can be used to shield areas that are either defrosting

or cooking too quickly.

• Foil should not come closer than one inch to any surface of

the oven.

Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a

good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.

ACCESSORIES There are many microwave accessories

available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase

so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer

will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you

that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Bertazzoni

is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories

are used.

ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING

• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside

of dish.

• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time

indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked

can smoke or ignite.

• Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for

suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic

wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to

cook evenly.

• Shield with small at pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas

of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense,

thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during

cooking, if possible.

• Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking

of such foods as chicken and hamburgers. Large items like

roasts must be turned over at least once.

• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking

both from top to bottom and from the center of the dish to

the outside.

• Add standing time. Remove food from oven and stir, if

possible. Cover for standing time which allows the food to

nish cooking without overcooking.
