Warning and safety instructions
Technical safety
This appliance complies with all rele-
vant legal safety requirements.
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time, read
the operating instructions carefully.
They contain important notes on in-
stallation, safety, operation and care
of the appliance. This way you will
avoid the risk of accidents and dam-
age to the appliance.
Do not use the microwave
if
– the door is warped.
– the door hinges are loose.
– holes or cracks are visible in the cas-
ing, the door, the door seal or the oven
interior walls.
Operating the appliance with this type
of damage will result in microwave leak-
age, and present a hazard to the user.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any fu-
ture user.
Repairs may only be carried out by
a suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with national and
local safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for un-
authorised work.
Correct usage
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only to defrost, reheat,
cook and to grill food: Any other usage
is not supported by the manufacturer
and could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for damage caused by im-
proper use of the appliance.
Never open the casing of the appli-
ance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults or electric
shock.
Never use the microwave to store
or dry items which could ignite
easily. Fire hazard!
If the connection cable is damaged
the new cable must be fitted by a
Miele approved service technician.
Do not let children access the ap-
pliance or its controls. Supervise its
use by older children, the elderly or in-
firm. Please ensure that they are aware
of how a microwave oven works and
understand the dangers of improper
use.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
the rating on the data plate corre-
sponds to the voltage and frequency of
the household supply. This data must
correspond in order to avoid risk of
damage to the appliance. Consult a
suitably qualified person if in doubt.
6
Warning and safety instructions
The electrical safety of this appli-
Use
ance can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between the ap-
pliance and an effective earthing sys-
tem, which complies with local and na-
tional safety regulations. It is most im-
portant that this basic safety require-
ment is present. If in any doubt, the
electrical wiring should be checked by
a qualified electrician.
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently heated.
Many factors will affect the overall
cooking time, including the size and
amount of food, its initial temperature,
changes to the recipe and the shape
and size of cooking container.
Some foods may contain micro organ-
isms which are only destroyed by thor-
ough cooking, therefore when cooking
or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, it is
particularly important that food is fully
cooked through (at temperatures over
70 °C for at least 10 minutes). If in
doubt select a longer cooking or re-
heating time.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug removed.
Do not pull on the cable, only on the
plug.
– the mains fuse is withdrawn.
– or the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
It is important that the heat is al-
lowed to spread evenly throughout
the food being cooked.
This can be achieved by stirring and/or
turning the food, and by observing a
sufficiently long standing time, which
should be added to the time needed for
cooking, re-heating or defrosting.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.
danger of overheating).
Always remember that times for
cooking, reheating and defrosting
are usually considerably shorter than
with traditional methods of food prepa-
ration.
Ensure that current is not supplied
to the appliance while maintenance Excessively long cooking times can
or repair work is being carried out.
lead to food drying out and burning, or
could even cause it to catch fire. There
is also a danger of fire if breadcrumbs,
flowers, herbs, etc., are dried in the mi-
crowave oven. Always ensure that this
type of procedure is supervised.
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess-
ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.
7
Warning and safety instructions
Do not use the microwave to heat
up herb cushions or pads filled
with wheat grains or lavender, such as
those used in aromatherapy. These
pads can ignite when heated even after
they have been removed from the mi-
crowave.
When heating liquids, the boiling
rod provided should be placed into
the container.
Fire hazard!
Exercise caution when cooking or
reheating food with a high sugar
content, e.g. Christmas pudding. If
heated for too long the sugar may
caramelise or ignite.
Do not use full power if you warm
empty dishes or dry herbs. The
lack or minimum amount of food could
cause damage to the appliance.
When heating liquids, milk, sauces etc.,
in the oven without the boiling rod, the
boiling point of the liquid may be
reached without the production of typi-
cal bubbles. The liquid does not boil
evenly throughout. This so-called ‘boil-
ing delay’ can cause a sudden build up
of bubbles, when the container is re-
moved from the oven or shaken. This
can lead to the liquid boiling over sud-
denly and explosively. Danger of burn-
ing!
Never cook or reheat food or liq-
uids in sealed containers or bot-
tles.
With baby bottles the screw top
teat must be removed.
Otherwise pressure builds up which
can cause the bottle or container to ex-
plode posing a severe risk of injury.
Before serving remember to allow a
sufficient standing time and then
always check the temperature of the
actual food itself after taking it out of the
microwave. Do not be misled by the
temperature of the container which
does not necessarily give a correct in-
dication of the temeparature of the food
or liquid in it. This is particularly im-
portant when preparing food for ba-
bies, children, and the elderly or in-
firm.
The formation of bubbles can be so
strong that the pressure forces the oven
door open. The user could be injured
and the appliance damaged.
The boiling rod ensures that the liquid
boils evenly and that bubbles form at
an early stage during the operation.
8
Warning and safety instructions
If smoke occurs in the oven interior,
to avoid fuelling any flame do not
open the oven door.
Interrupt the process (by pressing the
Stop/C button twice). Switch off at the
wall socket and where applicable, re-
move the plug. Do not open the oven
door until the smoke has dispersed.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plastic,
paper or other inflammable material.
Before using single use containers
make sure they are suitable for use in
microwave ovens. See appropriate sec-
tion.
Never heat undiluted alcohol in the
microwave oven as this can easily
ignite. This is a fire hazard.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells in the microwave oven in a
specially designed egg-boiling device
available from specialist shops. Simi-
larly, hard-boiled eggs should not be
reheated in the microwave as this may
lead to the eggs bursting, even once
they have been removed from the oven.
Do not heat up tins in the micro-
wave oven. Pressure can build up
and they may explode. This could result
in injury or damage.
Do not use any containers or cut-
lery made from or containing metal,
aluminium foil, lead crystal glassware,
temperature-sensitive plastics, wooden
utensils or cutlery, metal clips or wire
ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims,
or cream pots with the foil lid only par-
tially removed.
Eggs can be cooked without their
shells in the microwave oven only if
the yolk membrane has been punc-
tured several times first.
The pressure could otherwise cause
the egg yolk to explode.
Danger of injury.
Such items could be damaged, or
cause a fire hazard.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such
as tomatoes, sausages, jacket po-
The rack supplied with the appliance is tatoes and aubergines, should be
designed to be compatible with micro-
waves, and can therefore be used for
grilling with or without the microwave
function.
pierced or the skin cut in several places
before cooking to allow steam to es-
cape and prevent the food from burst-
ing.
Do not reheat food in the oven in
heat-retaining bags, such as those
used for ready grilled chicken or naan
bread from take-aways which are in-
tended for use in normal ovens. These
heat-retaining bags usually contain a
thin layer of aluminium foil which re-
flects microwaves. This reflected en-
ergy can, in turn, cause the outer paper
covering to become so hot that it ig-
nites.

Warning and safety instructions
Always ensure that food or a
browning dish has been placed in
Never place the hot glass tray (or
any other hot cooking containers)
the microwave, and that the turntable is on a cold surface, such as a tiled or
in place, before switching on.
granite worktop. The glass tray or con-
tainer could crack or shatter, and the
worktop surface could be damaged.
Use a heat-resistant mat or wire cooling
rack.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when cooking with oils and fats as
these can be a fire hazard if allowed to
overheat.
Do not use the oven to heat up the
room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects left near the oven
could catch fire.
Ovenproof earthenware can retain
a considerable amount of moisture.
Earthenware and porcelain containers
with hollow handles and lid knobs must
only be used in this oven if they have
vent holes which allow the moisture to
escape. Without vent holes there can
be a pressure build-up, causing the
container to crack or shatter, with the
danger of injury.
Do not use the appliance as a rest-
ing place for other items.
The heat from the top of the appliance
could cause some kinds of items to
melt.
To check the temperature of the
food, first interrupt the cooking pro-
cess. Then use a thermometer specifi-
cally approved for food use to measure
the temperature of the food. Never use
a thermometer containing mercury or
liquid, as these are not suitable for use
with very high temperatures and will
break very easily.
With all functions except micro-
wave solo mode the rack, oven in-
terior, grill element, side runners, door
and housing can get hot! Do not let
small children touch the oven while it is
in operation, there is the danger of be-
ing burnt. Supervise its use by the el-
derly or infirm.
Wear oven gloves when taking
dishes in and out of the oven, or
when handling dishes or food in the
oven if the grill is on or has just been in
operation. Danger of burning.
Never use a steam-cleaning appli-
ance to clean this appliance. Pres-
surised steam could reach the electri-
cal components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
The rack and glass tray get hot
during grilling (with and without mi-
crowave). Danger of burning.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the appli-
ance and its surroundings in a clean
condition at all times. Any damage
which may be caused by cockroaches
or other vermin will not be covered by
the appliance guarantee.
Only use the baking tray with the
fan heat function. It must not be
used with the microwave function.
10
Warning and safety instructions
When using browning dishes:
Always use oven gloves when han-
dling the browning dish to avoid
burns.
Never place the browning dish di-
rectly on to a table or work surface.
Use a suitable heat-resistant mat, grid
or board to protect the work surface or
table and prevent heat-marks.
Browning dishes should only be
used in a microwave oven, or as a
serving dish.
In a conventional oven the special
glaze would get damaged.
Disposal of your old appliance
Before disposing of your old appli-
ance first make it unusable. Cut off
and render any plug unusable. Cut off
the cable directly behind the appliance
to prevent misuse. This should be done
by a competent person.
The manufacturer cannot be held lia-
ble for damage caused by non-com-
pliance with these Warning and
Safety instructions.

How the microwave oven functions
In the microwave oven, food is cooked, As heat is produced directly in the
reheated or defrosted quickly.
food,
– food can generally be cooked with-
out adding much liquid or cooking
oil.
How does the microwave oven func-
tion?
In a microwave oven there is a high-fre-
quency tube called a magnetron. This
converts electrical energy into micro-
waves. These microwaves are distrib-
uted evenly throughout the oven interior
and rebound off the metal sides of the
oven interior to reach the food from all
sides. Microwave distribution is im-
proved with the turntable engaged.
– cooking, reheating and defrosting in
a microwave oven is quicker than us-
ing conventional methods.
– nutrients, such as vitamins and min-
erals, are generally retained.
– colour, texture and taste of food are
not impaired.
Microwaves stop being produced as
soon as the cooking process is inter-
rupted or the appliance door is opened.
When the appliance is in operation, the
closed, sealed door prevents micro-
waves escaping from the appliance.
In order for microwaves to reach the
food, they must be able to penetrate
the cooking utensil being used. Micro-
waves can penetrate porcelain, glass,
cardboard and plastics but not metal.
Do not, therefore, use utensils made of
metal, or which contain metal, for exam-
ple in the form of gold or silver trim. The
metal reflects the microwaves and this
could lead to the creation of sparks.
The microwaves cannot be absorbed.
Microwaves pass through a suitable
container and find their way directly into
the food. All food contains moisture
molecules which, when subjected to
microwave energy, start to oscillate 2.5
thousand million times a second. The
friction caused by this vibration creates
heat, which first starts developing
around the outside of the food and then
slowly penetrates towards the centre.
The moisture, fat and sugar content of
food will affect the speed at which it is
cooked.

Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Microwaves
Material and shape
The material and shape of containers
used affect cooking results and times.
Heat distribution is more even in round
and oval shaped flat containers than in
rectangular containers, providing better
results.
Metal
Metal containers, aluminium foil and
metal cutlery, or china with metallic
decoration, such as gold rims or co-
balt blue must not be used in an
oven being used in microwave
mode.
– are reflected by metal,
The metal reflects the microwaves, hin-
dering the cooking process.
Exceptions:
– If recommended by the producer,
pre-cooked meals packed in alu-
minium foil containers can be de-
frosted and reheated in the micro-
wave oven. Important: Remove the
lid first.
However, as food is only heated from
the top it is better to remove the food
from the aluminium foil container and
transfer it to a dish suitable for a mi-
crowave oven. The heat distribution
will be more even.
– pass through glass and chinaware,
If sparks and arcing occur when us-
ing an aluminium container, stop and
transfer the food to a microwave safe
container.

meat, poultry or fish, small pieces of
aluminium foil may be used to mask
wingtips or other thin parts for the
last few minutes of the process.
Glazes and colours
Some glazes and colours contain
metal.
Make sure that the aluminium foil is
at least 2 cm from the oven walls at
all times. It must not touch the walls.
This makes them unsuitable for use in a
microwave oven.
– Metal meat skewers or clamps
should only be used if they are very
small in comparison to the size of the
cut of meat.
Plastics
Plastic containers must only be used
for microwave mode alone.
Plastics must be heat-resistant to a
minimum of 110 °C.
Glassware
Heat-resistant glass or ceramic glass
are ideal for use in the microwave oven.
Otherwise the plastic may melt and
fuse with the food.
Special plastic utensils, designed for
use in microwave ovens are available
from good retail outlets.
Crystal glass contains lead which
could cause the glass to crack.
Glass dishes with a milled rim are
also subject to this risk.
Melamine is not suitable as it absorbs
energy and heats up.
Both are unsuitable.
Disposable containers, such as trays
made from polystyrene, can only be
used for very short timed warming and
reheating of food.
Porcelain (chinaware)
Porcelain (chinaware) is a suitable ma-
terial.
When purchasing new containers,
make sure that they are suitable for use
in a microwave oven.
Do not use porcelain with gold or sil-
ver edging or items with hollow
knobs or handles, as insufficient
ventilation may cause pressure.
Plastic boiling bags can be used for
cooking and reheating.
Earthenware
They should be pierced beforehand so
that steam can escape. This prevents a
build-up of pressure and reduces the
risk of the bag bursting.
Decorated earthenware is only suit-
able if the decoration is beneath an
all-over glaze.
14
Suitable containers for microwave ovens
Roasting bags and tubes can also be
Testing dishes for their
suitability
used. Roasting tubes should be about
40 cm longer and roasting bags about
20 cm longer than the food being
roasted, and carefully tied with string.
Turn the ends over and secure them.
The bag should be pierced according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
If in doubt as to whether glass, earthen-
ware or porcelain plates or dishes are
suitable for use in a microwave oven, a
simple test can be performed:
^ Place the item you wish to test in the
centre of the oven, fill a suitable glass
with water and also place this in the
oven.
Do not use metal clips or wire ties,
even if bound by paper.
^ Close the door.
There is a danger that they will ignite
when heated.
^ Turn the power selector to 900 Watts.
^ Enter a time of 30 seconds with the
time selector.
Wood
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
^ Press START.
At the end of the test, the water in the
small container should be warm but the
dish cool. If the dish is very hot and the
water is cold, it would be unwise to use
the dish.
Moisture contained in the wood evapo-
rates when exposed to microwave en-
ergy, causing the wood to dry and
crack.
Disposable containers
If a crackling noise is heard accom-
panied by sparks during the test,
switch the appliance off immediately
(press button Stop/C twice).
Only those plastic disposable contain-
ers which are specified by the manu-
facturer as suitable for use in a micro-
wave oven may be used.
Any crockery which causes this reac-
tion is unsuitable for use in the micro-
wave oven.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of plas-
tic, paper or other inflammable ma-
terials.
If any doubt exists about the suitabil-
ity of containers, please contact the
supplier.
Disposable containers are not always
recyclable or bio-degradable.
This test cannot be used to check
whether items with hollow knobs or han-
dles are suitable for use in a microwave
oven.
15

Operation
Types of operation
Microwave-Solo mode
Microwave-Solo mode
Microwave power settings
Suitable for defrosting, re-heating and
cooking.
There are 7 different microwave power
settings to choose from.
The higher the power setting the more
microwaves reach the food.
Grill n
When heating up food which cannot be
stirred or turned during cooking, as with
a plated meal, it is preferable to use a
lower microwave power setting. This
ensures the heat is distributed evenly.
Heat for long enough to reach the tem-
perature required.
Ideal for grilling thin cuts of meat, e.g.
steak or sausages.
Combination mode -
Microwave + Grill
Ideal for cooking and browning dishes
with toppings. The microwave cooks
the food and the grill browns it.
Times for defrosting, reheating,
cooking
The time required depends on:
– the initial temperature of the food.
Food taken from the refrigerator will
need longer to be reheated or
cooked than food already at room
temperature.
Automatic programmes
You can choose from the following auto-
matic programmes:
– three automatic defrosting
programmes (N OM),
– the type and texture of food.
Fresh vegetables contain more water
and cook more quickly than stored
vegetables.
– two automatic cooking programmes
(°Q)
– and two combination programmes
– the amount of food.
(QK).
These programmes are weight depend-
ent. You enter the weight of the food
and then the cooking time is calculated
automatically.
In general:
allow approx. time and a half for
double the quantity. For a smaller

Reheating
Select the following microwave power
settings to reheat food:
of the food, its initial temperature and
the amount to be cooked.
Drinks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 900 watts
Food . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 600 watts
Food for babies and toddlers. 450 watts
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated.
If in any doubt that a sufficiently high
temperature has been reached, con-
tinue reheating for a little longer.
We do not recommend heating or re-
heating foods or drinks for babies or
young children in the microwave
oven. Any decision to do this is the
responsibility of the user, and should
only be done with the utmost care.
Pasteurised or sterilised cooked
food should be gently heated at
450 watts, and tasted so that it is not
too hot for a baby’s palate before
serving. Other food or drink when re-
heated should be heated to a high
temperature and allowed to cool to a
suitable heat for eating. For
Stir or turn food from time to time during
cooking. Stir the food from the outside
towards the middle, as food heats more
quickly from the outside.
After reheating
Be careful when removing a dish
from the oven. It may be hot.
Although heat is not normally produced
in the container itself by the micro-
waves, (apart from stoneware and simi-
lar dishes), heat transfer from the food
to the container may be considerable,
making the container itself hot.
made-up milk follow the maker’s in-
structions.
Always use a lid or cover for reheating
food, except when a drier finish is
needed, e.g. breaded poultry/meat.
Allow food to stand for a few minutes at
room temperature at the end of a re-
heating process to enable the heat to
spread evenly throughout the food.
Always remove the lids from jars, es-
pecially jars of baby food.
Remove the rubber teat and seal top
before warming baby bottles.
When reheating liquids, place the
boiling rod supplied with the appli-
ance into the cup or glass.
Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a
microwave oven, even without the
shell. The eggs can burst.
After heating food, especially food
for babies and small children, stir
the food or shake the container and
check that the temperature does not
pose any danger. Double check af-
ter it has been left to stand.
Food taken straight from the refrigerator
requires longer to reheat than food
stored at room temperature. The time
required depends largely on the nature
25
Cooking
Place the food in a microwave-safe dish
and cover it.
Eggs can only be cooked in their
shells in the microwave oven in a
specially designed egg-boiling de-
vice available from specialist shops.
Similarly, hard-boiled eggs should
not be reheated in the microwave
oven as this may lead to the eggs
bursting, even once they have been
removed from the oven.
Eggs can be cooked without their
shells in the microwave oven only if
the yolk membrane has been punc-
tured several times first. The pres-
sure could otherwise cause the egg
yolk to explode.
When cooking fresh vegetables, fish,
meat, poultry first select power setting
of 750 watts and then turn it down to
450 watts for more gentle continued
cooking.
Vegetable cooking times depend on the
texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegeta-
bles contain more water than vegeta-
bles which have been stored and usu-
ally cook more quickly. Add a little wa-
ter to vegetables which have been kept
stored. Stir and turn food at least once
during cooking.
Ensure that food, such as meat and
fish, are cooked for an appropriate
length of time.
For dishes such as rice or semolina
pudding first select a power setting of
750 watts and then turn down to
150 watts to simmer.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such
as tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes
and aubergines, should be pierced or
the skin cut in several places before
cooking to allow steam to escape and
prevent food from bursting.

Defrosting
Defrosting and reheating /
cooking
Remove the food from its packaging
and place in a microwave-safe con-
tainer. Do not cover. Turn, stir or sepa-
rate the food about half-way through
the defrosting time.
Deep-frozen food can be defrosted and
immediately reheated or cooked.
After defrosting select 750 watts fol-
lowed by 450 watts.
To defrost delicate foods, e.g. cream,
butter, gateau and cheese, select
80 watts. However to achieve an even
result, remove from the oven and finish
defrosting at room temperature.
Remove the food from its packaging
and place in a covered microwave-safe
dish for defrosting and reheating or
cooking. Exception: Minced meat
should be left uncovered while cooking.
Soups, stew and vegetables should be
stirred several times during the pro-
cess. Separate slices of meat half-way
through the programme. Turn pieces of
meat and fish at the half-way stage.
To defrost meat, unpack the frozen
meat and lay it on an upturned plate in
a glass or china container so that the
meat juice can run out, but be col-
lected. Turn half way through defrost-
ing.
Deep-frozen pre-cooked meals in card-
board trays which, according to manu-
facturer’s instructions are suitable for
use in a conventional oven, are micro-
wave-safe.
For defrosting food such as bread,
cakes or fruit, a setting of 150 watts is
recommended.
After defrosting
If defrosting is followed by reheating
or cooking
Allow the food to stand at room temper-
ature for a few minutes after defrosting
to enable the heat to spread evenly
throughout the food.
Allow the food to stand at room temper-
ature for a few minutes to enable the

approx. 1-11/2 minutes.
Melting chocolate
Break 100 g into pieces, melt at
450 watts uncovered for approx. 2 min-
utes.
Dissolving gelatine
Add water according to manufacturer’s
instructions given on the packet and
melt at 450 watts for approx. 1/2-1 min-
ute, stirring occasionally.
Preparing flan topping / jelly glaze
Gently heat 1 sachet + 1/4 litre liquid at
450 watts uncovered for approx.
4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Proving dough

approx. 8-10 minutes at 80 watts.
Skinning tomatoes
Cut 3 tomatoes crosswise, drop into
water and heat at 450 watts for approx.
2 minutes. The skin can now be peeled
away easily. Take care, the tomatoes
may be very hot.
28
Grilling
There are three grill settings. Use grill
setting 3, the highest setting, when
cooking flat pieces of meat just under
the grill so that the meat cooks in the
shortest time possible. You can change
from one grill setting to another at any
time during operation.
Do not operate the grill if it has been
lowered, e.g. for cleaning.
This would damage it.
^ Turn the power selector to the point
(12 o’clock position).
If the total grilling time required is less
than 15 minutes, the grill should be
pre-heated for approx. 5 minutes before
placing food under the grill.
^ Press n.
The grill symbol n and 0:00 light up
and GP3 flashes in the display.
Flat pieces of fish and meat should usu-
ally be turned half way through grilling
for even results. Larger pieces should
be turned several times.
^ Use the rotary selector to change the
grill setting if required.
^ A few seconds later 0:00 will flash.
The duration can now be set using
the rotary selector.
Grilling times will vary depending on
the type of food and how thick it is.
Use the n button to alternate between
the grill setting and duration.
When grilling directly on the rack, the
glass tray should be placed underneath
the rack to catch any fat or juices.
^ Once a grill setting and duration have
been selected press START.
^ Place food on the rack and/or glass
tray and then put the rack and/or
glass tray into the oven on the re-
quired runner level, or place the food
directly on the turntable.
An audible tone will sound when the
cooking process is complete.
The rack and glass tray become hot
during use. Danger of burning!
Use the 2nd runner from the top for
thicker items such as pork chops and
the top runner for thinner items such as
bacon.
They will be easier to clean if
washed in soapy water immediately
after grilling.
If placing food on the turntable, leave
the turntable switched on, to give a
more even result.
