Description of the functions
Unsuitable containers for microwave
use
Dishes with hollow knobs or
handles are not suitable for use with
microwave power. Moisture which
has gathered in the hollow recesses
can cause pressure to build up and
the item can explode. If the hollow
recess is sufficiently ventilated, the
item could be used. However, we
recommend that you do not use
such dishes in the oven.
Metal
Metal reflects microwaves and
obstructs the cooking process.
Do not use metal containers,
aluminium, foil, metal cutlery and china
with metallic decoration such as gold
rims or cobalt blue with the
Microwave function.
Transfer ready meals in aluminium foil
dishes into a microwave safe container
for a more even heat distribution.
Do not use containers where the foil
lid has not been completely removed
as small pieces of foil can cause
sparking.
32
Do not use the cooking
containers and the rack supplied
with microwave power.
Glazes and colours
Some glazes and colours contain metal
and are therefore unsuitable for
microwave functions.
Wood
Wooden dishes are not suitable.
Moisture contained in the wood
evaporates when exposed to
microwave energy, causing the wood to
dry and crack.
Placing a dish in the microwave oven
Insert the condensate tray on the
lowest shelf level.
The dish containing the food should
always be placed in the middle of the
condensate tray.
Placing the food directly on the floor
of the oven would give unsatisfactory
and uneven results as the microwaves
would not be able to reach the food
from below.
