IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Microwave
Microwaves are converted to heat in food. The microwave
can be used solo, i.e. on its own, or in combination with a
different type of heating.
Note: In the section “Tables and Tips”, you will find
examples for defrosting, heating, and cooking with the
microwave.

Notes regarding cookware
Heat-resistant cookware made of glass, glass ceramic,
porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant plastic is suitable.
These materials allow microwaves to pass through. You
can also use serving dishes. This saves you having to
transfer food from one dish to another. You should only
use cookware with decorative gold or silver trim if the
manufacturer guarantees that it is suitable for use in
microwaves.
Metal cookware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow
microwaves to pass through. Food in covered metal
containers will remain cold.

CAUTION
Metal e.g. a spoon in a glass must be kept at least
1 in (25 mm) from the oven walls and the inside of
the door. Sparks could irreparably damage the
glass on the inside of the door.
Cookware test: Do not switch on the microwave unless
there is food inside. The following cookware test is the
only exception to this rule. If you are unsure whether your
cookware is microwave compatible, perform this test:
place the empty dish in the appliance for
^
for 1 minute
at maximum power. Check the temperature during that
time. The cookware should be cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks
are generated.
