7.2 Information about cookware
•
The ideal material for a microwave oven is permeable to microwaves, allowing
energy to penetrate the container and heat the food.
•
Microwaves cannot penetrate metal, so metal dishes or dishes with metallic trim
should not be used.
•
Do not use recycled paper products for cooking in a microwave oven, as they
may contain small metal fragments which may cause sparks and/or fires.
•
Round/oval dishes are better than square/oblong dishes, because food may
overheat in the corners of the dish.
The following list serves as a guideline for suitable dishes:
Cookware
Heat-resistant glass
Non-heat-resistant glass
Heat-resistant ceramic
Microwave-safe plastic dishes
Plastic wrap
Metal bowls
Metal frames
Aluminum foil and aluminum foil containers
Bamboo tableware
Cardboard tableware

NOTE
•
You can set a maximum cooking time of 60 minutes.
•
You can adjust the microwave power and the cooking time in any
order (for example, the cooking time first and then the microwave
power or vice versa).
•
At maximum microwave power the unit reduces the power after
some time to extend the service life of the microwave oven.
•
Poke holes in food with hard skins such as potatoes,
whole pumpkins, apples and chestnuts, before heating them.
