WARNING ‒ Risk of scalding!
Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened
after cooking. Steam may not be visible, depending on
the temperature.
Lift the lid in such a way that the hot steam can es-
▶
cape away from you.
Keep children away from the appliance.

Grilling
Grill food if you want it to be crispy.
The "Grill" heating function is good for cooking thinner
pieces of poultry, meat and fish such as steaks, drum-
sticks and burgers. It is also excellent for toasting
bread.
Circulated air grilling is very well suited to cooking
whole poultry and fish, as well as meat, e.g. roast pork
with crackling.
¡ 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.
27.4 Cooking instructions for ready meals
¡ The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of
the food. Pre-browning and irregularities are some-
times already present on the raw product.
¡ Do not use frozen products that are covered with a
thick layer of ice. Remove any ice on the food.
¡ 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.
27.5 Steaming
Cook dishes gently. The food remains particularly suc-
culent.
In contrast to steam-assisted cooking, the meat does
not become crispy on the outside.
¡ Use open, heat-resistant cookware that is suitable
for cooking with steam.
¡ The perforated steam container (size XL) is the best
option here. To catch any liquid that drips down,
slide in the universal pan one level below in the
cooking compartment.
You can also use a glass tray and place this onto
the wire rack.
¡ Cover food that can normally be cooked in a water
bath, with film, e.g. with cling film.
¡ You do not need to turn the food.
¡ For a different flavour, you can sear the meat,
poultry or fish before steaming. Reduce the cooking
time.
¡ Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and
a longer cooking time.
¡ If you are using several pieces which are the same
weight, the appliance's heating-up time is increased.
The cooking time remains the same.
¡ In the main part of the instruction manual, you can
find information on how to set the steam function.

Vegetables on several levels
You can easily cook more than one type of food or
even whole menus, e.g. broccoli and potatoes, on two
levels.
Rice or cereals
¡ Add water or liquid in the indicated ratio.
For example, this means 1:1.5 for 100 g of rice,
150 ml liquid.
