Instructions for use
Danger of burning due to hot
dishes.
The gourmet plate gets extremely hot
when in use.
Always use oven gloves when
handling it to avoid burns. Place it on
a suitable heat-resistant mat or pot
rest.
Before using for the first time
Before using the gourmet plate for the
first time, fill it with 400 ml water and
add 2 to 3 tbsp. vinegar or lemon juice.
Heat for 5 minutes at 450 W + Grill
.
The gourmet plate has an easy-to-clean
anti-stick coating so that food can be
removed easily.
The coating is susceptible to cuts
and scratches.
Metallic or sharp objects can
damage the non-stick coating.
Therefore do not cut food up directly
on the plate.
Use wooden or plastic utensils to
mix or turn food.
Searing/browning food
Risk of fire from overheating.
Oils and fats can ignite if allowed to
overheat.
Never leave the appliance
unattended when cooking with oil or
fats.
Only use very little oil when grilling
with this dish. The anti-stick coating
will prevent food from sticking to it,
and this way you can reduce the
amount of heated oil used.
When using the gourmet plate, make
sure that the food is ready to transfer
to the gourmet plate as soon as the
gourmet plate has heated up.
Place the gourmet plate directly on
the turntable.
Sparking can damage the gourmet
plate and the oven interior.
Do not place the gourmet plate on
the rack. Make sure there is a gap of
approx. 2 cm between the gourmet
plate and the interior walls of the
microwave oven so that sparking
cannot occur.
Heat the plate up at 450 W + Grill
for up to max. 5 minutes.
Risk of damage due to
overheating.
Do not overheat the empty gourmet
plate. This would damage the
coating.
For this reason do not place the
gourmet plate under the rack to
catch the fat when grilling.
If using oil for grilling, you can either
heat up the oil on the gourmet plate, or
you can heat the oil separately and then
add it to the plate.
Butter, however, should always be
added after heating up the gourmet
plate. It has a lower burning point than
oil and would get too dark or burn if
added too soon.
