6.2.4. Size and shape of microwave-suitable containers
Flat, broad containers are better than narrow, tall ones. "Flat" foods can be cooked
more evenly.
Round or oval containers are better than angular ones. There is a danger of local
overheating in the corners.
6.3. Unsuitable materials
•
Metal, i.e. metal pots, pans and lids.
ATTENTION!
Metal in the cooking space can lead to sparks! These
can damage the appliance or the viewing window!
` Therefore, only use the supplied grill rack in grill
mode.
•
Dishes with metal parts (handles, decoration or bottoms) or with gold or silver
décor can also lead to sparks in microwave mode.
•
Crystal or lead crystal can shatter, coloured glass may become discoloured.
•
Any materials which are not heatproof can lose shape or even burn.
NOTE
To test whether a dish is suitable for use in the microwave, put some wa-
ter in the container and place it in the microwave. Press 2 x on the
button. The appliance will now operate in microwave mode for 1 min-
ute. If you ascertain that the container is hotter than the food, then it
is not suitable for the microwave. Microwave-suitable dishes are only
warmed by the heat of the food.
WARNING!
` As soon as you notice sparks, flashes or even fire,
then turn off the microwave immediately using the
button.
