Timer
∙ The timer features two scales. The outer scale is for defrosting according to weight in kgs. The inner scale is used for
setting the cooking or heating-up times.
∙ By using the timer, an operating time of up to 30 minutes can be selected.
∙ When setting the cooking time to less than 2 minutes, turn the knob to a greater value fi rst and then turn it slowly back to
the desired setting.
∙ Once the timer is set, operation starts automatically when the door is closed.
∙ The appliance can be switched off at any time by setting the timer back to '0'.
∙ For defrosting, set the power selection switch to 'Defrosting' (250 W). Use the outer scale on the timer to set the weight
of the food to be defrosted. The adjustable values for defrosting are approximate only, and may differ from those actually
required. If defrosting is not complete after the elapsed time, repeat the process with a relatively shorter time setting.
Operating sequence
∙ Place the food to be heated into a suitable container. Place the container onto the turntable in the oven.
∙ When food is treated with microwaves, it should be covered to prevent it from drying out. Glass or plastic covers
especially designed for use with microwave appliances are available at most kitchenware dealers.
∙ When using the microwave/grill combination or the grill, do not cover the food to be cooked.
∙ When grilling, place the grill rack directly on the glass turntable and place the food on the grill rack.
∙ Use the power selection switch to set the desired level.
∙ Close the door and set the operating time with the timer. The turntable starts to rotate; during operation, the interior light
remains switched on.
∙ If the door is opened during operation (e.g. to stir the food), cooking and timer functions are automatically suspended and
will automatically resume after the door is closed again.
∙ After the pre-programmed time has elapsed, a sound signal is heard and the interior lighting is switched off. To save
energy, the light only comes on while the unit is operating.
∙ Open the door and remove the container with the food.
∙ In order to achieve an even heat distribution in the food, the container should be set aside for several minutes.
