Type of ovenware

MICROWAVE FUNCTION

For the microwave function, keep in mind
that microwaves are reflected by metal
surfaces. Glass, china, clay, plastic, and
paper let microwaves pass.
For this reason, metal pans and dishes or
containers with
decorations cannot
microwave. Glass ware and clay with
metallic decoration or content (e.g. lead
crystal) cannot be used in microwave ovens.
The ideal materials for use in microwave
ovens are glass, refractory china or clay, or
heat resistant plastic. Very thin, fragile glass
or china should only be used for short period
of times (e.g. heating).
Hot food transmits heat to the dishes which
can become very hot. You should, therefore,
always use an oven glove!

TEST THE OVENWARE

Put the item you want to use in the oven for
20 seconds at maximum microwave power.
After that time, if it is cold and just slightly
warm, it is suitable to use. However, if it
heats up a lot or causes electric arcing it is
not suitable for microwave use.
If microwave is used, please make sure
there are no inappropriate objects inside
of the oven, including wire racks or
griddles that are the part of appliance
and shall be used solely with grill or oven
functions.
CONVENTIONAL FUNCTIONS
In the Grill and Hot Air functions, the
ovenware must be resistant to temperature of
at least 300°C.
Plastic dishes are not suitable for use in the
grill.
metal parts or

COMBINED FUNCTIONS

In the combined functions, the ovenware
used must be suitable for use in both the
microwave and the grill.
METALLIC CONTAINERS
ALUMINIUM FOIL
Pre-cooked food in aluminium containers or
in aluminium foil can be put in the microwave
if the following aspects are respected:
Keep in mind
recommendations written on the packaging.
•
The metallic containers cannot be more
than 3 cm high or come in contact with
the cavity walls (minimum distance 3
cm). Any aluminium lid or top must be
removed.
•
Put the metallic container directly on top
of the base. If you use the grid iron, put
the container on a china plate. Never put
the container directly on the grid iron!
•
The cooking time is longer because the
microwaves only enter the food from the
top. If you have any doubts, it is best to
use only dishes suitable for microwave
use.
•
Aluminium foil can be used to reflect
microwaves during
process. Delicate food, such as poultry or
minced meat, can be protected from
excessive heat by covering the respective
extremities/edges.
•
Important: aluminium foil cannot come
into contact with the cavity walls since
this may cause electrical arcing.

LIDS

We recommend you use glass or plastic lids
or cling film since:
1. This will stop excessive evaporation
(mainly during very long cooking times);
2. The cooking times are shorter;
