cannot operate it accidentally.
The oven can be locked at any time.

Cookware guide
To cook food in the microwave oven, the microwaves must be able to penetrate
the food, without being reflected or absorbed by the dish used.
Care must therefore be taken when choosing the cookware. If the cookware is
marked microwave-safe, you do not need to worry.
The following table lists various types of cookware and indicates whether and how
they should be used in a microwave oven.

Description
Can be used in small quantities to protect
areas against overcooking. Arcing can
occur if the foil is too close to the oven
wall or if too much foil is used.
Do not preheat for more than 8 minutes.
Porcelain, pottery, glazed earthenware
and bone china are usually suitable,
unless decorated with a metal trim.
Some frozen foods are packaged in these
dishes.
Can be used to warm food. Overheating
may cause the polystyrene to melt.
May catch fire.
May cause arcing.
