en How it works
¡ When grilling several food items, choose pieces that
are of a similar weight and thickness. The grilled
food will brown evenly and will remain succulent
and juicy.
¡ Place the food to be grilled directly onto the wire
rack.
¡ To catch any liquids that drip down, place the uni-
versal pan into the cooking compartment at least
one level below the wire rack.
Notes
¡ The grill element switches on and off continuously.
This is normal. The grill setting that you use determ-
ines how frequently this occurs.
¡ Smoke may be produced when grilling.
30.4 Microwave cooking
If you cook food using the microwave mode, you can
reduce the cooking time considerably.
General information
¡ When using the microwave mode, the cooking time
is determined based on the total weight.
If you want to cook a quantity that differs from the
specified quantity, the general rule is Double the
quantity requires just under double the cooking
time.
¡ The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cook-
ware may become very hot.
¡ The main part of the instruction manual contains in-
formation on how to configure the microwave and
microwave boost oven settings.

Making yoghurt
Remove the accessories and shelves from the
1.
cooking compartment.
Heat 1 litre of whole milk (3.5% fat) to 90 °C on the
2.
hob and then leave it to cool down to 40 °C.
It is sufficient to heat UHT milk to 40 °C.
Mix 150 g of chilled yoghurt into the milk.

Cooking, braising or steaming using the
microwave mode
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. Alternat-
ively, you can use a plate or special microwaveable
film to cover the dish.
¡ For cereal products, e.g. rice, use deep cookware
with a lid. Cereal products foam a lot during cook-
ing. Add liquid in accordance with the instructions
and information provided in the recommended set-
tings tables.
¡ Do not wash or dry food. Add 1-3 tablespoons of
water or lemon juice to the food.
¡ Spread the food out so that as much of it as pos-
sible is in contact with the bottom of the cookware.
Food that is in contact with the bottom will cook
more quickly than food that is piled up.
¡ Use salt and seasoning sparingly. When cooking
food using the microwave mode, most of the food's
natural flavour will be retained.
¡ Turn or stir the food 2-3 times during cooking.
¡ After cooking, leave the food to rest for 2-3 minutes.
30.5 Cooking instructions for ready meals
¡ The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of
the food. Pre-browning and irregularities may
already be present in the food before cooking.
¡ Do not use frozen products that are covered with a
thick layer of ice. Remove any ice on the food.
¡ Take ready meals out of the packaging.
¡ If you are warming or cooking the ready meal in
cookware, make sure that the cookware is heat-res-
istant.
¡ Distribute foods that are in the form of separate
pieces, such as bread rolls and potato products, so
that they are spread out flat and evenly on the ac-
cessory. Leave a little space between the individual
pieces.
¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the pack-
aging.
¡ To achieve best results, we recommend that you re-
heat food or ready meals at 600 watts. If the pack-
aging specifies a higher microwave output setting,
extend the time.
