Microwave-safe in MicroCombi mode
In MicroCombi mode, a microwave output of up to 600
W watts can be added to a type of heating. This means
that metal dishes can be used in MicroCombi mode.
Cookware and accessor-
ies
Accessories supplied
Reason
You can use metal cut-
lery, e.g. place a spoon in
a glass, to prevent
delayed boiling.
Note: Metal may create
sparks, which could dam-
age the cooking compart-
ment and the inner door
pane. Metal must be kept
at least 2 cm from the
cooking compartment
walls and the inside of the
door.
Reason
Microwaves cannot pass
through metal. The food is
barely heated or not
heated at all.
Microwaves can damage
gold and silver decora-
tion. Only use this kind of
cookware if the manufac-
turer guarantees that it is
microwave-safe.
Reason
The accessories supplied,
e.g. the wire rack, do not
create sparks in Micro-
Combi mode.
