The microwave

Microwaves are converted to heat in foodstuffs. You

can set the microwave on its own or in combination

with the grill. You will find information about cookware

and how to set the microwave.
Note
In the Tested for your in our cooking studio section,

you will find examples for defrosting, heating and

cooking with the microwave oven.

Suitable dishes are heatĆresistant ovenware

made of glass, glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or

heatĆresistant plastic. These materials allow

microwaves to pass through.
You can also use serving dishes. This saves you

having to transfer food from one dish to another.

You should only use ovenware with decorative gold or

silver trim if the manufacturer guarantees that they are

suitable for use in microwaves.

Metal ovenware is unsuitable.

Metal does not allow microwaves to pass through.

Food in covered metal containers will remain cold.
Caution Metal Ć e.g. a spoon in a glass Ć must be kept

at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the

door. Sparks could destroy the glass on the inside of

the door.

Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food

inside.

The following ovenware test is the only exception to

this rule.
