To defrost foods not included in the Auto Defrost menu, use
microwave power levels 30P (MEDIUM LOW) or10P (LOW). Stir
or turn food at least 2-3 times during defrosting. 
After defrosting, cover food or wrap in aluminium foil and leave to
stand until thoroughly defrosted. Refer to the defrosting chart in the
cookbook section on page 20.

The grill at the top of the oven cavity has one power setting.  Assisted by the turntable which rotates to ensure
even browning, the grill is both economical and ideal for cooking food such as bacon, gammon steaks, fish
fingers and tea cakes or for making cheese on toast.  It is also ideal for browning and crisping food which
has been microwaved.

Example: 
To grill for 8 minutes. Close the oven door.

1. Enter the grilling time,

press the 1 min key eight
times.

2. Press the MICRO/

GRILL/DUAL key
six times.

3. Press the

START/AUTO
MINUTE key once to
start grilling.

It is not necessary to preheat the grill.
It is recommended to use the rack for grilling small items such as toast, bacon or steak, turn over halfway through
grilling. Place food directly on the rack, in a flan dish or on a heat-resistant plate.
When browning or crisping foods in a casserole dish, use the rack if the container is shallow enough.  However, it
is advisable to place such containers directly onto the turntable, allow a little extra time to brown and crisp.

NOTE:
When first using the grill heater, smoke and odour will be given off.  To avoid this happening when food is
being cooked, heat the grill heating element without food for approximately 20 minutes.
