What you should pay attention to
Prick the skin of meat, chicken and fish with a
fork or other pointed object. This prevents
these foods spattering.
You can open the door when the microwave
function is switched on; the microwave
function then switches off automatically and
the time set is stopped.
Not all materials can be used in the combi-
microwave oven. The table below shows

accessories
Remove the accessories from the combi-

warm water.
