and penetrate food. Metals such as stainless steel, aluminum and copper
reflect microwaves. Therefore, do not use cookware made of metallic materials.
Cookware marked microwave - safe is always safe for use. For additional
information on appropriate cookware refer to the following guide and always use
the ceramic tray on shelf Level 1 when using microwave mode.
