Combining microwaves and convection

Combination cooking uses both microwave energy and convection heating. No preheating is required as the microwave energy is immediately available.

Many foods can be cooked in combination mode, particularly:

• Roast meats and poultry

• Pies and cakes

• Egg and cheese dishes

ALWAYS use microwave-safe and oven-proof cookware. Glass or ceramic dishes are ideal as they allow the microwaves to penetrate the food evenly.

ALWAYS use oven gloves when touching the recipients in the oven, as they will be very hot.

You can get better cooking and browning, if you use the low rack.

Open the door. Place the food on the turntable or on the low rack which should then be placed on the turntable. Close the door. The heating element must be in the horizontal position.
