Combining the grill and microwave
Note:
Cooking tips
¡ Place the cookware onto the wire rack.
¡ Defrost frozen food beforehand.
¡ For roasting, use a deep dish. If you cover the cookware when you cook your food, this will keep the cooking
compartment cleaner.
¡ Arrange chicken, chicken portions and duck breast skin side up.
¡ For bakes and gratins, use large, flat cookware.
Food takes longer to cook in narrow, deep cookware and browns more on top.
¡ Leave bakes and gratins to stand for 5minutes in the appliance after it has been switched off.
¡ Check whether the cookware fits in the cooking compartment. The cookware should not be too big.
¡ Leave the meat to sit for 5-10minutes before carving.
This allows the meat juices to be distributed evenly so that they do not run out when the meat is carved.
¡ Always set the maximum cooking time.
Check the food after the shorter time specified.
