USING THE CRUSTY PLATE
(ONLY MC28H5125C* MODEL USE)
This crusty plate allows you to brown food not only on the top with the grill, but also the
bottom of the food turns crispy and brown due to the high temperature of the crusty
plate. The crusty plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc.
1.
Place the crusty plate directly on the turntable and preheat it
with highest Microwave-Grill-Combination [600 W + Grill] by
following the times and instructions in the chart.
2.
Brush the plate with oil if you are cooking food, such as
bacon and eggs, in order to brown the food nicely.
3.
Place the food on the crusty plate.
4.
Place the crusty plate on the metal rack (or turntable) in the
microwave.
5.
Select the appropriate cooking time and power.
Always use oven gloves to take out the crusty plate, as will become very hot.
Please note that the crusty plate has a teflon layer which is not scratch-resistant. Do
not use any sharp objects like a knife to cut on the crusty plate.
Do not place any objects on the crusty plate that are not heat-resistant.
Never place the crusty plate in the oven without turntable.
Clean the crusty plate with warm water and detergent and rinse off with clean water.
Do not use a scrubbing brush or a hard sponge otherwise the top layer will be
damaged.
Please note that the crust plate is not dish washer-safe.
cookware guide
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate the food,
without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.
Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is marked
microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how they
should be used in a microwave oven.
