Tips for Combi Operation

When cooking food with the combined setting of microwave-grill, you
should adhere to the following:
The cooking time for big and thick food items, such as roast pork, is
respectively longer than for small, lower food. Nevertheless, when roast-
ing, the opposite rule applies. The closer the food is to the grill, the
faster it will become brown. I.e., when preparing big joints during combi
operation, the roasting time is possibly shorter than for smaller joints.

Auto Functions

Use the auto functions to cook certain amounts of foods automatically.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn the rotary knob in the direction . Set the desired program.
Choose one of the settings given in the table below.
2. Press the CLOCK / WEIGHT button repeatedly to select the amount of
food.
3. Press the START button.
NOTE:
• For programs A - 1 and A - 4 the display will show the number of
servings and not the weight.
• In program A - 7, we recommend cutting whole chickens in half and
directly placing them onto the glass plate.
• Programs A - 7, A - 8 and A - 9 feature pauses and beeps in order
to remind you to turn the food for more even cooking. The fan
continues running when the cooking process is paused. The time in
the display flashes. Close the door and press the START button to
continue operation.
• The results of automatic cooking programs depend on a variety
of factors (e.g. shape and size of the food, preferences regarding
doneness). If dissatisfied with the cooking results, adjust the cooking
times individually. Observe the notes in the chapter "Cooking".

Defrosting

Thanks to the Defrost program you can defrost frozen quicker. The
automatic weight setting controls the defrosting time. You simply need to
determine the weight of the food.
NOTE:
• After of the time has passed, the appliance pauses with beeps
reminding you to flip over the food. During that interruption the fan
continues to run. The time in the display flashes. Close the door and
press the START button to continue operation.
• Since the microwaves always penetrate the food from the outside
in, larger pieces may not be fully defrosted in their centre. The outer
layers may already have started to cook.
• Factor in a compensation time after the defrost program. This is a
standing period during which a temperature compensation takes
place through conduction of heat from the outside (defrosted) to the
inside (frozen). You can leave the food in the switched off appliance
or outside the appliance during the compensation time. The compen-
sation time should be at least as many minutes as the defrost time in
the microwave. It depends on the condition of the food.
• The automatic weight setting is provided for food with a weight of
100 g to 1800 g.
• If the weight of the food is less than 200 g, do not place it in the
middle but at the edge of the glass plate.
• You can shorten the compensation times by e.g. separating small
pieces of meat or crumbling the remaining frozen chunks of mince
after the defrosting time. For sliced bread or sausage, separate the
slices during the compensation time.
• Allow fruit to defrost in a bowl with a lid. After around half the defrost
time, gently stir the fruit once.
• Cakes or tarts with chocolate icing should not be defrosted in the
microwave.
To use the defrost program, proceed as follows:
1. Determine the weight of the food.
2. Remove the food from its packaging. If it cannot be removed from the
packaging, defrost for 30 seconds on maximum microwave power (see
"Quick start").
3. Place the food to be defrosted onto the plate (fruit into a bowl). Also
place meat onto a upturned saucer so that the meat juices can drain.
This saucer should never be used for other foods or come into contact
with them.
4. Press the DEFROST button once. A buzzer sounds and the weight
("100 g") appears on the display.
5. Select the weight of the food by pressing the button CLOCK / WEIGHT
several times.
6. Press the START button to start.
