It is always preferable to set a minimal cooktime and extend if necessary; check the
browning of your dishes to avoid overcooking.

the low position when using the fan function or

heat distribution thereby providing optimal cooking
results. Never use metal dishes when cooking with
the fan + microwave function.

Use only heat-resistant ovenware.

The glass pie dish : it may be used for all pastries,
quiches, pizzas, or as a roasting pan. You may also
place it under the rack when grilling in order to catch
drippings.

When cooking with the fan + microwave function ,
do not use any metallic dishes.

Always use an oven mitt to remove your dish as it may become quite hot.

If you wish to defrost frozen food after using one of the fan functions, for better results,
first let the microwave oven cool down for about ten minutes.
