Using the microwave function
∙ Containers made from heat-resistant glass or porcelain are particularly suitable for use in microwave appliances.
∙ Plastic is suitable only if it is heat-resistant.
∙ Plastic cooking containers especially designed for use with microwave ovens are available at most kitchenware dealers.
∙ Cooking bags etc. should be punctured to be able to release any high pressure during cooking.
Using the grill or hot-air function
∙ With these functions, any heat-resistant containers or plates suitable for conventional ovens may be used, though not any
plastic items.
∙ The food to be cooked can be put directly on the grill rack, which is then placed on the glass turntable.
Using the microwave/grill or microwave/hot-air combination
∙ When using the combination functions, the microwave and grill or hot-air functions are activated alternately. The
containers or plates must therefore be suitable for use in a microwave appliance as well as being heat-resistant. Because
of the relatively high temperatures, plastic items must not be used. Make sure that the container or plate used does not
contain any metal parts.
