USING THE GRILL
The grill is useful for cooking thin slices of meat, steaks, kebabs,
sausages and pieces of chicken. It is also suitable for hot
sandwiches and au gratin dishes. Grilling takes place at full power.
The maximum time available for grilling is 95 minutes.
Example: To grill food for 6 minutes:

Half way through cooking the oven will beep twice. This to
remind you that you need to turn the food over.
Open the door, turn the food with heatproof tongs and close the
door and press the Start/+30 Sec./Confirm button to continue.
When the cooking cycle is over: The oven will 'beep' five times,
and reset to the clock time.
Points to remember when grilling:
Use a metal grill rack (supplied) so that food can drain.
$
Do not overload the grill rack. Space the food out.
$
Brushing the grill rack very sparingly with vegetable oil will
$
stop food adhering to it and make washing up easier.
Always stand the grill rack in a heatproof ceramic dish. This
$
will catch drips and help keep the oven clean.
$
Do not use the grill without the turntable in place. The
turntable helps the food to cook evenly.
When removing or turning over food use heatproof tongs.

When removing or inserting the provided grill rack into a hot
$
oven use a suitable heatproof implement.
CAUTION:
When you use the grill, the cooking utensils and the interior of
the oven get very hot, much hotter than when you are using the
oven as a regular microwave.
Always stir food with long handled implements, tongs, etc.
Always use oven gloves when removing or placing utensils in
an oven where the grill has recently been on. When you set
utensils down on a surface make sure it is heatproof or use an
insulating mat.
After use allow an extra long period for the oven to cool down
before cleaning or re-use.
