MICROWAVE + 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 microwave + 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 microwave + 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 (microwave + 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.
