What kind of ovenware can be used?

Microwave function

For the microwave function, keep in mind that

microwaves are reflected by metal surfaces.

Glass, china, clay, plastic, and paper let

microwaves pass.

For this reason, metal pans and dishes or

containers with metal parts or decorations

cannot be used in the microwave. Glass

ware and clay with metallic decoration or

content (e.g. lead crystal) cannot be used in

microwave ovens.

The ideal materials for use in microwave

ovens are glass, refractory china or clay, or

heat resistant plastic. Very thin, fragile glass

or china should only be used for short period

of times (e.g. heating).

Hot food transmits heat to the dishes which

can become very hot. You should, therefore,

always use an oven glove!

How to test ovenware you want to use

Put the item you want to use in the oven for

20 seconds at maximum microwave power.

After that time, if it is cold and just slightly

warm, it is suitable to use. However, if it heats

up a lot or causes electric arcing it is not

suitable for microwave use.

Grill and Hot air function

In the case of the grill function, the ovenware

must be resistant to temperature of at least

572°F.

Plastic dishes are not suitable for use in the

grill.

Combined functions

In the combined function, the ovenware must

be suitable for use in conventional heating

functions.

Aluminium containers and foil

Pre-cooked food in aluminium containers or in

aluminium foil can be put in the microwave if

the following aspects are respected:

Keep in mind the manufacturer’s

recommendations written on the packaging.

The aluminium containers cannot be

more than 3 cm high or come in contact

with the cavity walls (minimum distance

3 cm). Any aluminium lid or top must be

removed.

Put the aluminium container directly on

top of the turntable plate. If you use the

grid iron, put the container on a china

plate. Never put the container directly on

the grid iron!

The cooking time is longer because the

microwaves only enter the food from the

top. If you have any doubts, it is best to

use only dishes suitable for microwave

use.

Aluminium foil can be used to reflect

microwaves during the defrosting

process. Delicate food, such as poultry or

minced meat, can be protected from

excessive heat by covering the

respective extremities/edges.

Important: aluminium foil cannot come

into contact with the cavity walls since

this may cause electrical arcing.

Lids

We recommend you use glass or plastic lids

or cling film since:

1. This will stop excessive evaporation

(mainly during very long cooking times);

2. The cooking times are shorter;

3. The food does not become dry;

4. The aroma is preserved.

The lid should have holes or openings so that

no pressure develops. Plastic bags must also

be opened. Baby feeding bottles or jars with

baby food and similar containers can only be

heated without their tops / lids otherwise they

can burst.
