Roasting in combination with a microwave
Certain foodstuffs can be prepared in combination with
a microwave. The cooking time is considerably reduced
by doing so.
As opposed to conventional operation, the cooking time
is based on the total weight when roasting in
combination with a microwave.
If you have quantities other than those indicated in
Tip:
the settings tables, the following basic rule applies:
double the quantity equates to roughly double the
cooking time.
Always use heat-resistant cookware that is suitable for
use in microwaves. Roasting dishes made from metal
or Römertopf dishes are only suitable for roasting
without using the microwave. Observe the notes on
cookware suitable for microwaves. ~ "Microwave"

Caution!
If you use an oven bag, do not seal it shut with metal
clips. Use kitchen string. Do not use metal skewers for
roulades. Sparks may form as a result.
Grilling flat pieces
Flat pieces of poultry, meat and fish, such as steaks,
drumsticks and burgers, can be prepared well using the
"Grill" heating type. Excellent results are also achieved
when grilling toast.
Grilling
Keep the appliance door closed when using the grill.
Never grill with the appliance door open.
Slide the wire rack in at the indicated shelf position with
the imprint "Microwave" facing the appliance door and
the outer rail facing downwards. In addition, slide the
universal pan in at least one shelf position lower, with
the slanted edge facing the appliance door. Any
dripping fat will be caught.
When grilling, try wherever possible to use pieces of
food which are of a similar thickness and weight. This
will allow them to brown evenly and remain succulent
and juicy. Place the food to be grilled directly onto the
wire rack.

Tested for you in our cooking studio
Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If
you pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out
and it will become dry.
Do not add salt until after the meat has been grilled.
Salt draws water from the meat.
Notes
The grill element switches itself continuously on and
■
off; this is normal. The grill setting determines how
frequently this occurs.
Smoke may be produced when grilling.

Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for your
poultry, meat and fish, in addition to toast. Temperature
and cooking time depend on the quantity, composition
and temperature of the food. Settings ranges are
indicated for this reason. Try using the lower values at
first. You can use a higher setting next time if
necessary.
The setting values are based on the assumption that
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry, meat and fish
are placed into a cold cooking compartment.
In the table, you can find specifications for poultry, meat
and fish with default values for the weight. If you wish to
prepare heavier poultry, meat or fish, use the lower
temperature in every case. If roasting several joints, use
the weight of the heaviest piece as a basis for
determining the cooking time. The individual pieces
should be approximately equal in size.
A general rule: the larger the poultry, meat or fish is, the
lower the cooking temperature and the longer the
cooking time.
Turn the poultry, meat and fish after approx.
the indicated time.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will achieve the best possible
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per
cent.
