Samsung GE81KB-1/BAL manual Microwave + Grill

MICROWAVE + GRILL

This cooking mode combines the radiant heat that is coming from the grill with the speed of microwave cooking. It operates only while the door is closed and the turntable is rotating. Due to the rotation of the turntable, the food browns evenly. Three combination modes are available with this model: 600 W + Grill, 450 W + Grill and 300 W + Grill.

Cookware for cooking with microwave + grill

Please use cookware that microwaves can pass through. Cookware should be flameproof. Do not use metal cookware with combination mode. Do not use any type of plastic cookware, as it can melt.

Food suitable for microwave + grill cooking:

Food suitable for combination mode cooking include all kinds of cooked food which need reheating and browning (e.g. baked pasta), as well as foods which require a short cooking time to brown the top of the food. Also, this mode can be used for thick food portions that benefit from a browned and crispy top (e.g. chicken pieces, turning them over half way through cooking). Please refer to the grill table for further details.

Important remark:

Whenever the combination mode (microwave + grill) is used, make sure that the grill heating element is under the ceiling in the horizontal position and not on the back-wall in the vertical position. The food should be placed on the high rack, unless another instruction is recommended. Otherwise it has to be placed directly on the turntable. Please refer to the instructions in the following chart.

The food must be turned over, if it is to be browned on both sides.
