GRILL
The grill-heating element is located underneath the ceiling of the cavity.
It operates while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. The
turntable’s rotation makes the food brown more evenly. Preheating the grill
for 4 minutes will make the food brown more quickly.
Cookware for grilling:
Should be flameproof and may include metal. Do not use any type of plastic
cookware, as it can melt.
Food suitable for grilling:
Chops, sausages, steaks, hamburgers, bacon and gammon rashers, thin
fish portions, sandwiches and all kinds of toast with toppings.
Important remark:
Whenever the grill only mode is used, make sure that the grill-heating
element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-
wall in the vertical position. Please remember that food must be placed on
the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended.
MIC GRILL
This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill
with the speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is
closed and the turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the
food browns evenly.
Three combination modes are available with this model:
600 W + Grill, 450 W + Grill and 300 W + Grill.
Cookware for cooking with mic grill
Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should
be flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not
use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.
Food suitable for mic grill cooking:
Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked
food which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as
foods which require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also,
this mode can be used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned
and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them over half way through
cooking). Please refer to the grill table for further details.
Important remark:
Whenever the combination mode (mic grill) is used, make sure that
the grill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and
not on the back-wall in the vertical position. The food should be placed on
the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. Otherwise it has
to be placed directly on the turntable. Please refer to the instructions in the
following chart.
The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
