When cooking by combination, the microwave power cooks food quickly whilst the grill gives
traditional browning and crisping.
N.B.
1. The grill rack is designed to be used for Combination and Grilling. Never attempt to use any
other metal accessory except the one provided with the oven. Place a heatproof dish
underneath to catch any fat or drips.
2. Use the grill rack only as described. DO NOT use if operating the oven with less than 200g
(7oz) of food on a manual program. For small quantities do not cook by combination, cook by
GRILL ONLY for best results.
3. Never cover foods when cooking on combination.
4. DO NOT preheat the grill on combination.
5 Arcing may occur if the incorrect weight of food is used, the GRILL rack has been damaged, or
a metal container has been used accidentally. Arcing is flashes of blue light seen in the
microwave. If this occurs, stop the oven immediately.
6. Some foods should be cooked on combination without using the grill rack i.e. Roasts, gratins,
pies and puddings. The food should be placed in a heatproof non-metallic dish and placed
directly onto the turntable.
7. DO NOT use plastic MICROWAVE containers on combination programs (unless suitable for
combination cooking.) Dishes must be able to withstand the heat of the top grill - heatproof
glass e.g. Pyrex ® or ceramic are ideal. But do not put dishes on grill rack directly under grill.
8. DO NOT use your own metal dishes or tins, as the microwaves will not penetrate the food
evenly.
9. NN-K105 only: After grill use the thermostat may switch off to prevent overheating. If using
continuously, allow oven to cool between cooking.
10.Caution NN-K155/NN-K125: The oven will automatically work on HIGH microwave power if a
cooking time is entered without the Combination level previously being selected.
CAUTION: The GRILL rack must always be used with the glass turntable in position.
Remove grill rack from oven by holding the rack and heatproof dish firmly. Use oven
gloves when removing accessories. Never touch the outside window or inside metal parts
of the door or oven when taking food in or out due to the high temperatures involved.
