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.
/ 7
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.

It is not recommended to use metal cookware when
using microwave power as it will arc, which can lead
to fire.
Care must be taken as some containers warp, melt or
discolour at high temperatures.
Must be pierced to let steam escape. Ensure bags are
suitable for microwave use. Do not use plastic or
metal ties, as they may melt or catch fire due to the
metal arcing.
Only use for warming or to absorb moisture. Care
must be taken as overheating may cause fire.
Always attend the oven when using these materials
as overheating may cause fire.
