The turntable must always be used as a base for other containers or accessories, with the exception of the rectangular baking plate. TURNTABLE SUPPORT Only use the support for the glass turntable. Do not rest other accessories on the support. CRISP PLATE Only for use with the specific “Dynamic Crisp” function. The Crisp plate must always be placed in the centre of the glass turntable and can be pre-heated when empty, using the special function for this purpose only. Place the food directly on the Crisp plate. HANDLE FOR THE CRISP PLATE Useful for removing the hot Crisp plate from the oven. RECTANGULAR BAKING PLATE Only use the baking plate with functions that allow for convection cooking; it must never be used in combination with microwaves. Insert the plate horizontally, resting it on the rack in the cooking compartment. Please note: You do not need to remove the turntable and its support when using the rectangular baking plate. LOW WIRE SHELF This allows you to place food closer to the grill, for perfectly browning your dish and for optimal hot air circulation. Place the wire shelf on the turntable, making sure that it does not come into contact with other surfaces. STEAMER To steam foods such as fish or vegetables, place these in the basket (2) and pour drinking water (100 ml) into the bottom of the steamer (3) to achieve the right amount of steam. To boil foods such as pasta, rice or potatoes, place these directly on the bottom of the steamer (the basket is not required) and add an appropriate amount of drinking water for the amount you are cooking. For best results, cover the steamer with the cover (1) provided. Always place the steamer on the glass turntable and only use it with the appropriate cooking functions, or with microwave functions. COVER Useful for covering food while it is cooking or heating in the microwave. The cover reduces splashes, keeps foods moist and can also be used to create two cooking levels. It is not suitable for use in convection cooking or with any of the grill functions (including “Dynamic Crisp”). Please note: The number of accessories may vary depending on which model is purchased. Other accessories can be purchased separately from the After-sales Service. 3 2 1 There are a number of accessories available on the market. Before you buy, ensure they are suitable for microwave use and resistant to oven temperatures. Metallic containers for food or drink should never be used during microwave cooking. Always ensure that foods and accessories do not come into contact with the inside walls of the oven. Always ensure that the turntable is able to turn freely before starting the oven. Take care not to unseat the turntable whilst inserting or removing other accessories.
