Microwave
You can use the microwave to cook, heat up, bake or
defrost food very quickly. The microwave can be used
on its own or in combination with a type of heating.
8.1 Microwave-safe cookware and
accessories
To heat food evenly and avoid damaging your appli-
ance, it is important to use the right cookware and ac-
cessories.
Note:
Read the manufacturer's instructions before us-
ing any cookware in the microwave. If in doubt, carry
out a cookware test.
Microwave-safe
Cookware and accessor-
ies
Reason
Cookware made from
heat-resistant, microwave-
safe material:
¡
Glass
¡
Glass ceramic
¡
Porcelain
¡
Temperature-resistant
plastic
¡
Fully glazed ceramic
without cracks
These materials allow mi-
crowaves to pass
through. Microwaves do
not damage heat-resistant
cookware.
Metal cutlery
Note:
You can use metal
cutlery, e.g. place a
spoon in a glass, to pre-
vent delayed boiling.
ATTENTION!
Metal touching the wall of the cooking compartment
will cause sparks, which may damage the appliance or
the inner door pane.
▶
Metal (e.g. a spoon in a glass) must be kept at least
2 cm from the cooking compartment walls and the
inside of the door.
Not microwave-safe
Cookware and accessor-
ies
Reason
Metal cookware
Metal does not allow mi-
crowaves to pass
through. The food hardly
heats up.
Cookware with gold or sil-
ver decoration
Microwaves can damage
gold and silver decora-
tion.
Tip:
You can only use this
kind of cookware if the
manufacturer guarantees
that it is microwave-safe.
