Cookware and cooking materials
Cookware and other materials must fit on the turntable. Always use oven mitts or pot
holders because cookware may become hot.
Refer to the Materials you can use
on page 6 and Materials to be avoided on page 7
tables as a guide, then test before using.
There may be certain non-metallic utensils that are not safe to use for microwaving. If in
doubt, you can test the utensil in question following the procedure below.
Utensils test
1 Fill a microwave-safe container with 1 cup (250 ml) of cold water, along with the
utensil in question.
2 Cook on maximum power for one minute. Do not exceed one minute cooking time.
3 Carefully feel the utensil. If the empty utensil is warm, do not use it for microwave
cooking.
4 To prevent the risk of fire, do not put hot pads, blankets, clothes, or other textiles in
oven.
