can be placed directly on the rack or placed in a fl an dish or on a heat-resistant plate. To make sure that any fat or oil 
which can drip from the food being cooked, ensure that a suitable tray is placed below the Grill Rack.

shallow enough. However, it is advisable to place such containers directly on the turntable allow a little extra time to
