Suitable cookware
■ The ideal material for use in a microwave oven is microwave-permeable,
allowing the energy to penetrate the container to heat the food. Microwaves
cannot penetrate metal. For this reason, metal containers and cookware
should not be used.
■ When using the microwave for heating, do not use products made of
recycled paper. These can contain minute fragments of metal, which can
generate sparks and/or fires.
■ We recommend the use of round/oval cookware instead of square or ob-
long containers, as food in corner areas tends to overcook. The following list
provides general hints to assist you in selecting the correct cookware.

WARNING – RISK OF FIRE!
► Never use metallic objects when you are using the microwave. Metals
reflect the microwave radiation and this leads to the generation of sparks.
This can cause a fire and irreparably damage the appliance!
