Notes regarding ovenware
Suitable ovenware
Suitable dishes are heat-resistant ovenware made of glass,
glass ceramic, porcelain, ceramic or heat-resistant 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.
Unsuitable ovenware
Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves
to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain
cold.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass – 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.
Cookware test
Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The
following cookware test is the only exception to this rule.
Perform the following test if you are unsure whether your
cookware is suitable for use in the microwave:
1. Heat the empty cookware at maximum power for ½ to 1
minute on the wire rack at level 1.
2. Check the temperature during that time.
The cookware should be cold or warm to the touch.
The cookware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are
generated.
