OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Utensils Guide
• The ideal material for microwaves utensils is transparent to microwaves. It allows energy to pass through the
container and heat the food but not the container.
• Microwaves cannot penetrate metal. Metal utensils will become hot and sparks might occur. So metal
utensils or dishes with metallic trim should not be used inside a microwave oven.
• Do not use recycled paper products when microwave cooking as they may contain small metal fragments
which may cause sparks and/or fires. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag
in oven.
• Use round and oval containers rather than square ones as food in corners tends to overcook.
• Plastic container can be used in microwave mode but not for grill or combined mode. Metal utensils can be
used in grill mode but never in microwave or combined mode.
The list below is a general guide to help you select suitable utensils.
