Microwaves cannot pass
through metal. The food is
barely heated or not
heated at all.

ver decoration
Microwaves can damage
gold and silver decora-
tion. Only use this kind of
cookware if the manufac-
turer guarantees that it is
microwave-safe.
Microwave-safe in MicroCombi mode

W watts can be added to a type of heating. This means

Reason
Accessories supplied

Metal baking tins

ciently.

age the cooking compart-
ment and the inner door
pane. Metal must be kept
at least 2 cm from the
