Arranging the food
Note: in most cases, it is recommended to cover the foods in order to reduce humidity, which is hazardous
for the appliance.
The heating time depends on a number of factors:
- the quantity of foods placed inside;
- the type of foods placed inside;
It is not considered possible to provide precise information on arranging the foods.
This may vary according to personal preferences.
Where possible, distribute the food across the whole surface.
