Cookware and Dinnerware
Cookware and dinnerware must fit on the turntable. Always
use oven mitts or pot holders when handling because any dish
may become hot from heat transferred from the food. Do not
use cookware and dinnerware with gold or silver trim. Use the
following chart as a guide, then test before using.

To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:
1. Place cookware or dinnerware in microwave oven with
1 cup (250 mL) of water beside it.
2. Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.
Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the
water stays cool.
Aluminum Foil and Metal
Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes
from the microwave oven.
Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave
oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can
occur and cause damage to the microwave oven.
OK for Use
Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on
some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat
thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow
■
aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls,
ceiling, or floor.
Always use the turntable.
■
To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not allow
■
contact with another metal object during microwave cooking.
Do Not Use
Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non-approved
meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners such as
sandwich wrappers, staples, and objects with gold or silver trim
or a metallic glaze should not be used in the microwave oven.
Many recipes for microwave cooking specify which cooking
power to use by percent or name. For example, PL7 = 70%
= Medium-High.
One of the power icons (see "Function Icons" in the "Display"
section) will flash during manual cooking, depending on the
power level of the cycle. To see the exact power level during
a cooking cycle, touch POWER LEVEL. The display will briefly
show the current power level, then will return to the cooking
countdown.
