Fire hazard due to inflammable
materials.
Disposable containers made out of
plastic, paper or other inflammable
materials can ignite, causing damage
to the oven.
Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of
plastic, paper or other inflammable
materials.
You can use the following crockery and
material:
