COOKING UTENSILS
Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in the microwave oven.
The following chart summarises the proper use of cooking utensils in your oven:
Cooking utensils Microwave
Heat resistant glass, glass ceramic yes
Ceramic, china yes
(Do not use china with
gold or silver trim.)
Metal cookware no
Non-heat resistant glass no
Microwave plastic yes
Plastic wrap yes
Paper (cup, plates, towels) yes
Straw, wicker and wood no
Microwave
1. Most glass, glass ceramic, and heat resistant
glassware utensils are excellent. Those with
metal trim should not be used in a microwave
oven.
2. Paper napkins, towels, plates, cups, cartons,
and cardboard can be used in the microwave
oven. Do not use recycled paper products
since they may contain impurities which may
cause sparks and/or fires when used in
cooking.
(Consult your cookbook for correct use of
these products.)
3. Plastic dishes, cups, freezer bags, and plastic
wraps may be used in the microwave oven.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions or the
information given in the cookbook when using
plastics in the microwave oven.
4. Metal utensils and utensils with metallic trim
should not be used in the microwave oven.
For more information on the proper use of
metal in your oven, please read the
introduction section in the cookbook. If the
use of aluminum foil, skewers, or utensils
containing metal in the oven is specified in the
recipe, allow at least 2.5cm clearance
between the metal object and the interior
oven wall. If arcing (sparks) occurs, remove
immediately.
Note:
Consult your cookbook, individual recipes, and
charts for correct use of cooking containers,
products, and other useful information.
Notes:
• Care should be taken when removing utensils
or the glass turntable, as they may become
hot during cooking.
• Only use a thermometer that is designed or
recommended for use in the microwave oven.
• Ensure the turntable is in place when you
operate the oven.
