Child Safety Lock - Melissa 16330106 Bedienungsanleitung

CHILD SAFETY LOCK

The child safety lock prevents young
children from using the appliance. The ap-
pliance cannot be operated as long as the
child safety lock is active. The child safety
lock is activated by pressing the Stop/
Clear/Clock (13) and Start (14) buttons
simultaneously. One beep will be heard,
and the display shows a lock symbol.
The child safety lock is deactivated in the
same way.
TIPS FOR FOOD PREPARATION
When preparing food in the appliance, the
following basic rules apply:
Cooking time
• Smaller quantities of food cook
more rapidly than large quantities. If
the amount of food is doubled, the
preparation time must be more than
doubled correspondingly.
• Small pieces of meat, small fish and
chopped vegetables cook more quick-
ly than large pieces. For the same
reason, it is recommended, if, for
example, you wish to make goulash,
stews or similar, that the meat be cut
into pieces no bigger than 2 x 2 cm.
• The compactness of the food is also
very important for the cooking time.
The more compact the food is, the
longer it takes to cook.
• Whole joints require a longer cooking
time than stewed dishes.
• A joint requires a longer time than a
dish using minced meat.

• The colder the food, the longer the
cooking time needs to be. Food at
room temperature will therefore cook
faster than food from a fridge or
freezer.
• When cooking vegetables, the cook-
ing time depends on the freshness of
the vegetables. Therefore, check the
condition of the vegetables and add
or deduct a little time accordingly.
• The short cooking time when using an
appliance means that the food does
not overcook. If required, a little water
can be added.
• When cooking fish and vegetables,
you only need to use the minimum of
water.
Microwave power
The choice of power setting depends on
the condition of the food to be cooked.
In most cases, the food is cooked on full
power.
• Full power is used, among other
things, for reheating food quickly, boil-
ing water or similar.
• Low power is principally used to
defrost food and prepare dishes con-
taining cheese, milk or egg. (Whole
eggs in their shell cannot be cooked
in the appliance, as there is a risk of
the eggs exploding.) In addition, lower
power settings are also used to finish
off and to retain the excellent aroma
of a dish.
