Unsuitable containers for
microwave use
Dishes with hollow knobs or
handles are not suitable for use with
microwave modes. Moisture which
has gathered in the hollow recesses
can cause pressure to build up and
the item can explode.
Metal
Metal reflects microwaves and
obstructs the cooking process.
Do not use metal containers, aluminum,
foil, metal cutlery and china with
metallic decoration such as gold rims or
cobalt blue with Microwave
combination modes.
Do not use containers where the foil
lid has not been completely removed
as small pieces of foil can cause
sparking.
Exceptions:
The rack
supplied
with the Speed
Oven is suitable for cooking with
Microwave and Combination modes.
Do not place the rack on the floor of
the oven.
Metal bakeware can be used with
Microwave combination modes.
Ready-meals in aluminum foil trays
can be defrosted and reheated using
microwave power as long as the lid is
removed.
When using foil trays there is a risk
of arcing or sparks occurring in the
oven. For this reason, place the foil
tray on the glass tray and not on the
rack.
The foil tray must be at least 3/4"
(2 cm) away from the oven walls. It
must not touch them.
However, as food is only heated from
the top, it is better to remove the food
from the aluminum foil container and
transfer it to a dish suitable for use in
a microwave oven. The heat
distribution will be more even.
