OPERATION WITH MICROWAVES

The microwaves are transformed into heat inside foods. The microwave oven can be used by itself or in combina-
tion with other types of heating. This section contains information about the dishware and instructions for setting
the microwave oven.
WARNINGS FOR DISHWARE
Suitable dishware
Unsuitable dishware
Testing dishware
You can use heat-resistant dishware made of glass, glass ceramic,
porcelain, ceramic or refractory plastics. These materials are permeable
to microwaves.
It is also possible to use normal plates. In this way, it won't be necessary
to transfer the food.
Dishware with gold or silver decorations can only be used if the manufacture
guarantees that they can be used in microwave ovens.
Remember that, when using the oven in microwave mode, the dish must be
placed on the rotating plate.
When using the oven in combination mode, it is preferable to place the dish
to be cooked on the low, round grill, supported so that it is centred on the
rotating plate.
Metal dishware cannot be used.
Metal is not permeable to microwaves. Food in metal containers will remain
cold.
Warning! Metal components, such as spoons in glasses, must stay at least
2 cm from the walls of the oven and the inside of the door. In fact, sparks
could seriously damage the inside of the glass door.
Warning! The flat grill must be removed when using the microwave and
combined modes. Use it only with traditional oven functions.
Never turn on the microwave oven before you have put in the food.
The only exception allowed is testing dishware.
If you unsure if your dishware can be used in the microwave oven, we
recommend performing the following test:
place the empty pot in the appliance for ½ - 1 minute at the maximum
power. Check the temperature. The pat must be cold or slightly warm. If it is
hot or there are sparks, the pot is not suitable.
