Place the empty container on the turntable together with a glass of water and run the oven for one minute at maximum
power.
After one minute:
if the container is cold, it is "transparent" and can be used for microwave cooking,
if the container is warm or hot it is absorbent and must not be used for microwave cooking.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the microwave oven
from the mains supply and allow it to cool to room temperature.

Frequent cleaning prevents the formation of smoke and bad odours during cooking and also
sparking in the oven cavity and around the door seal.
Do not let food deposits or grease accumulate inside the oven cavity or on the door seal.
Make sure that the waveguide cover is kept clean at all times. Should food deposits or grease
be allowed to accumulate on the cover, sparking will occur and may damage your oven
invalidating the warranty.

cloth, it is important to keep this area clean at all times.

cavity and door.
