Miele 10 227 410 Microwave Oven User Manual


 
Use
The gourmet plate gets extremely
hot when in use. Always use oven
gloves when handling it to avoid
burns. Place it on a suitable heat-
resistant mat or pot rest.
Before using for the first time
Before using the gourmet plate for the
first time, fill it with 400 ml water and
add 3 to 4 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice.
Heat for 5 minutes at 450 W + Grill L.
The gourmet plate has an easy to
clean non-stick coating so that food
can be removed easily. The coating
is susceptible to cuts and scratches.
Therefore do not cut food up directly
on the plate. Use wooden or plastic
utensils to mix or turn food.
Metallic or sharp objects can
damage the coating.
Searing / browning food
Because food does not stick to the non-
stick coating, only very little fat or oil is
necessary when cooking with this dish.
This has the added advantage of
keeping down the calorie count.
Never leave the gourmet plate
unattended when cooking with oil or
fats, as these can overheat and
catch fire. Fire hazard.
^
When using the gourmet plate, make
sure that the food is ready to transfer
to the gourmet plate as soon as it has
heated up.
^
Place the gourmet plate directly on
the turntable.
Do not place it on the rack. Make
sure there is a gap of approx. 2 cm
between the gourmet plate and the
interior walls of the microwave oven,
otherwise sparking could occur and
damage the gourmet plate and the
oven interior.
^
Heat the plate up at 450 W + Grill L
for up to 5 minutes.
Do not overheat the empty gourmet
plate, otherwise the coating could
be damaged. For this reason do not
place the gourmet plate under the
rack to catch the fat when grilling.
If using oil, you can either heat up the
oil on the gourmet plate, or you can
heat the oil separately and then add it
to the plate.
Butter, however, should always be
added after heating up the gourmet
plate. It has a lower burning point than
oil and would get too dark or burn if
added too soon.
Always dry meat, poultry, fish and
vegetables thoroughly before placing
them on the gourmet plate.
Do not use the gourmet plate to
cook eggs or reheat cooked eggs.
The eggs can explode.
