Always use suitable kitchen utensils
∙ Place the food directly onto the turntable/grill rack. Make sure that the container does not protrude over the rim of the
turntable.
∙ Metal objects are to be avoided since microwaves are reflected from metal surfaces and might not reach the food to be
cooked. Any metal in the oven could also cause sparks, resulting in possible damage to the unit.
∙ As a general rule, cutlery or metal containers must not be used in the microwave oven. Some food wrappings contain
aluminium foil or wires underneath a layer of paper and are therefore also unsuitable for use with microwave appliances.
Should the use of aluminium foil be recommended in a recipe, ensure that the food is tightly wrapped in the aluminium foil
(avoiding any air blisters). Ensure a minimum distance of 2.5 cm between the aluminium foil and the interior walls of the
oven.
∙ Always make sure that the cooking container or plate used does not contain any metal decoration such as a gold rim or
colour containing metal particles. Lead crystal objects are also not suitable. Always make sure that no parts of the cooking
containers used are hollow (e.g. the handles). Porous materials may have absorbed water during cleaning and are again
not suitable. Cooking containers or utensils made of ‘Melamine’ plastic material absorb energy and are also unsuitable.
Using the microwave function
∙ Containers made from heat-resistant glass or porcelain are particularly suitable for use in microwave appliances.
∙ Plastic is suitable only if it is heat-resistant.
∙ Plastic cooking containers especially designed for use with microwave ovens are available at most kitchenware dealers.
∙ Cooking bags etc. should be punctured to be able to release any high pressure during cooking.
Using the grill or hot-air function
∙ With these functions, any heat-resistant containers or plates suitable for conventional ovens may be used, though not any
plastic items.
Using the microwave/grill or microwave/hot-air combination
∙ When using the combination functions, the microwave and grill or hot-air functions are activated alternately. The
containers or plates must therefore be suitable for use in a microwave appliance as well as being heat-resistant. Because
of the relatively high temperatures, plastic items must not be used. Make sure that the container or plate used does not
contain any metal parts.
