Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to shield food from
overheating. Keep foil at least 2 cm from the oven walls, as arcing
may occur. Foil containers are not recommended unless specified by
the manufacturer, follow instructions carefully.
 Always follow the manufacturers instructions. Do not exceed
heating times given. Be very careful as these dishes become very hot.

Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware and bone china are usually
suitable, except for those with metallic decoration.
 Care should be taken if using fine glassware as it can break or crack if
heated suddenly.

wave power as it will arc, which can lead to fire.
 Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt or discolour at
high temperatures.
