ACCESSORIES
TURNTABLE
Placed on its support, the glass turntable can be used with all cooking methods. The turntable must always be used as a base for other containers or accessories, with the exception of
the rectangular baking tray.
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 designated 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.
WIRE RACK
This allows you to place food closer to the grill, for perfectly browning your dish. Place the wire shelf on the turntable, making sure that it does not come into contact with other
surfaces.
COVER (IF SUPPLIED)
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 with any of the grill functions.
Other accessories that are not supplied can be purchased separately from the After-sales Service.
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.
