Using the Manual Crusty Cook Function 
This crusty plate allows you to brown food not only on the top with the 
grill, but also the bottom of the food turns crispy and brown due to the 
high temperature of the crusty plate. Several items which you can 
prepare on the crusty plate can be found in the chart (see side page).
The crusty plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc. 
How to clean the Cruty Plate
Clean the crusty plate with warm water and detergent and rinse 
off with clean water.
Do not use a scrubbing brush or a hard sponge otherwise the top 
layer will be damaged.
Please Note
The crusty plate is not dishwasher-safe.
We recommend to preheat the crust plate directly on the turntable. 
Preheat the crusty plate with 600W + Grill(
)function and follow 
the times and instructions in the table.

Place the crusty plate directly on the turntable and preheat 
it with highest Microwave-Grill-Combination [600W+Grill]

Always use oven gloves to take out the crusty 
plate, as will become very hot.
2.
Brush the plate with oil if you are cooking food, such as 
bacon and eggs, in order to brown the food nicely.
Please note that the crusty plate has a teflon 
layer which is not scratch-resistant. Do not use 
any sharp objects like a knife to cut on the 
crusty plate.
Use plastic accessories to avoid scratches on 
the surface of the crusty plate or remove the 
food from the plate before cutting.
