NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
Improper handling of the appliance
may lead to damage to property.
■ Metal in the cooking compartment
produces sparks during microwave
and multi-function mode! This can
destroy the microwave and the view-
ing window! Do not use metal pots,
metal pans and metal lids or cook-
ware with metal parts such as gold
edges under any circumstances.
■ Do not use any containers made of
porcelain, ceramic or plastic and any
protective sheets during grill or mul-
ti-function mode which are not resist-
ant to high heat!
■ Do not use baking paper or similar!
■ If you notice that a container is get-
ting hotter than the food contained
in it, is not suitable for microwave
cooking. Do not use such containers.
The appliance offers different types of heat-
ing systems: Microwave mode, grill mode,
multi-function mode. Always select suitable
cookware for the different types of heating
systems. In each case observe the informa-
tion provided by the manufacturer. Unsuitable
cookware can causes damage to the appli-
ance.
For microwave and multi-
function mode
Only use microwaveable cookware. This in-
cludes:
– Fire-proof glass, ceramic, porcelain
– Fire- and frost-proof glass ceramic
– Highly heat-resistant, microwaveable plas-
tic (e.g. roasting bag)
– the included rotisserie racks or the rotary
plate
To fi nd out if the dishes are microwave-
able, perform the following test:
1. Put the empty container in the cooking
compartment.
2. Press the
‘ ’
button (17).
This will start the appliance at full micro-
wave power for 30 seconds.
– If the cookware gets hot or if sparks are
produced, open the door immediately to
stop the process: This cookware is not
suitable!
– If the cookware remains cold or only
lukewarm, it can be used solely for mi-
crowave mode.
For the grill heating system
All materials are suitable for the grill heating
system, which are also used in a convention-
al oven. The included rotisserie rack is also
suitable.
Size and shape
– Flat wide containers are better than nar-
row high ones. ‘Flat’ food can cook more
evenly.
– Round or oval containers are better than
square ones. There is a risk of local over-
heating in the corners!
