Utensils
Notes
Aluminum
foil
As protection only. Small, evenly sized strips of aluminum foil can be
used to protect thin pieces of beef or game, preventing them from
overcooking. Make sure the aluminum sheet is kept well away from
the oven walls, as this could generate electric arcs. The aluminum
foil must be at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the oven walls.
Crisp plate
(accessory)
The bottom of the crisp plate must be at least 5 mm (3/16 inches)
above the turntable. Incorrect use can cause the turntable to break.
Plates and
crockery
Only if microwave safe. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Do
not use cracked or chipped crockery.
Glass jars
Always remove the lid. Only use them to heat food, so that the
contents are just hot enough all the way through. Most glass jars or
bottles are not heat-resistant and may break.
Glass items
Only heat-resistant glass ovenware. Make sure there are no metal
applications. Do not use cracked or chipped crockery.
Oven cooking
bags
Do not use metal clips to seal them. Create some slits to allow steam
to escape.
Paper plates
and cups
Only for short cooking/heating periods. Do not leave the oven
unattended during cooking.
Paper
napkins
May be used to reheat food and to absorb oil and fat. Only for short
cooking periods, supervising the process carefully.
Baking paper
Use as protection to prevent spraying or as a cover when steam
cooking.
