9.4 Cooking with the Grill Element
For good results with the grill, use the rack supplied with the oven.
Fit the rack in such a way that it doesn’t come into contact with the metal
surfaces of the oven cavity since if it does there is a danger of electric
arcing which may damage the oven.
IMPORTANT POINTS:
1. When the grill is used for the first time there will be some smoke and a
smell coming from the oils used during oven manufacture.
2. The oven door window becomes very hot when the grill is working.
Keep children away.
3. When the grill is operating, the cavity walls and the grid iron become
very hot. You should use oven gloves.
4. If the grill is used for extended period of time it is normal to find that the
elements will switch themselves off temporarily due to the safety
thermostat.
5. Important! When food is to be grilled or cooked in containers you must
check that the container in question is suitable for microwave use. See the
section on types of ovenware!
6. When the grill is used it is possible that some splashes of fat may go
onto the elements and be burnt. This is a normal situation and does not
mean there is any kind of operating fault.
7. After you have finished cooking, clean the interior and the accessories
so that cooking remains do not become encrusted.

Heat up the grill beforehand for 2 minutes. Unless indicated otherwise, use
the rack. Place a tray below the rack so that the water and the fat can
drop. The times shown are merely indicative and can vary as a function of
the composition and quantity of the food, as well as the final condition
wished for. Fish and meat taste great if, before grilling, you brush them
with vegetable oil, spices and herbs and leave to marinate for a few hours.
Only add salt after grilling.
Sausages will not burst if you prick them with a fork before grilling.
