Cover
Useful tip: Covers are available from
retail outlets.
- A cover prevents too much steam
escaping, especially when cooking
foods which need longer to cook.
- It speeds up the heating process of
the food.
- It prevents food from drying out.
- It helps keep the oven interior clean.

Use a glass or plastic cover suitable
for microwave use for cooking
programmes with the
Microwave

function.
Alternatively, use a cling film suitable
for use in a microwave oven. Heat can
cause normal cling film to distort and
fuse with the food.
The cover must be able to withstand
temperatures of up to 110 °C. At
higher temperatures (e.g. in the
Grill

or Fan Plus

functions), the
plastic may distort and fuse with the
food.
Only use a cover for the
Microwave
 function.
The cover should not form a seal
with the container. If the container
has a narrow diameter, the steam
may not be able to escape. The
cover could get too hot and start to
melt.
Use containers with a sufficiently
large diameter.
 Do not use a cover for reheating the
following types of food:
- Food coated in breadcrumbs
- Food which requires a crisp finish,
e.g. toast
- Food which must be heated with the
