All cooking programs can be set up with the oven
door open or closed with the exception of the Quick
Start program which requires the door to be closed.

open, pressing the Stop/Clear button once will
erase the program.

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:
Press Stop/Clear to clear any program.
1: Press the Gill/Combi button once : "G-1" (Grill) appears.
2: Press the Start/+30 Sec./Confirm button to confirm
3: Press the  
keys to set 6 minutes.
4: Press the Start/+30 Sec./Confirm button to start
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 or the convection oven, 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 or convection ovenhas 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.

CONVECTION COOKING

Convection cooking allows you to use your microwave oven in
the same way as a traditional oven.
Two procedures are available:
A: Preheat the oven to the desired temperature. When the oven
reaches the operating temperature, set the cooking time and
insert the food. We recommend you preheat the oven unless
your recipe specifically says otherwise.
