Operating modes
Grill
J
As the grill element needs to radiate a
high heat in order to cook the food, it
will take several minutes after being
switched on for the element to glow red
hot and so produce sufficient infra-red
heat for grilling.
Fan Grill
I
The hot air from the grill is distributed
by the fan in the rear of the oven evenly
over all the food being grilled. This en-
ables a lower temperature to be se-
lected than for normal oven grilling.
Programmes
Combination programmes
By using the combination programmes
you can quickly reheat and cook food
while browning it at the same time.
You can combine the microwave opera-
ting mode with each of the normal oven
modes.
The Fan Heat (hot air) mode is best
suited for combining with the micro-
wave since the heat reaches the
baked, roasted or cooked food immedi-
ately, maximising the time and energy
saved.
In general when using the modes in
combination, you should set the micro-
wave power level for baking not higher
than 150 W, and for cooking, roasting
and grilling not higher than 450 W.
Automatic programmes
The microwave’s automatic pro-
grammes can be used to cook, warm
up or defrost food. The relevant power
setting and time are selected automati-
cally. You only need to enter the food
group and the weight.
“Solo” refers to one operating mode in
contrast to “Combination programme”
which can include more than one oper-
ating mode.
