Suitable containers for microwave use
48
Unsuitable containers for
micr
owave use
Dishes with hollow knobs or
h
andles are not suitable for use with
microwave power. Moisture which
has gathered in the hollow recesses
can cause pressure to build up and
the item can explode. If the hollow
recess is sufficiently ventilated, the
item could be used.
However, we recommend that you
do not use such dishes in Microwave
mode.
Metal
Metal reflects microwaves and
obst
ructs the cooking process.
Do not use metal containers,
alumi
nium, foil, metal cutlery and china
with metallic decoration such as gold
rims or cobalt blue with Microwave
programmes.
Do not use containers where the foil
li
d has not been completely removed
as small pieces of foil can cause
sparking.
Exceptions:
The rack supplied
can be used with
microwave combination programmes
or with oven functions without
microwave power. However, it is not
suitable for use with the Microwave
Solo function.
Do not place the rack directly on the
floor of the oven. Instead, use one of
the oven shelves.
– Metal bakeware can be used with
microwave combination
programmes.
– Ready-meals in aluminium foil trays
can
be defrosted and reheated in the
oven as long as the lid is removed.
When using foil trays there is a risk
of ar
cing or sparks occurring in the
oven. For this reason place the foil
tray on the glass tray and not on the
rack.
The foil tray must be at least 2 cm
away from the oven walls. It must
not touch them.
However, as food is only heated from
the t
op it is better to remove the food
from the aluminium foil container and
transfer it to a dish suitable for use in
a microwave oven. The heat
distribution will be more even.
