Suitable containers for microwave use
35
Testing containers
If in doubt as to whether glass,
earthenware or porcelain plates or
dishes are suitable for use in a
microwave oven, a simple test can be
performed:
Place the item you wish to test in the
centre of the oven.
Close the door.
Touch the sensor.
Select the 900 Watt power level.
Enter 30 seconds using the and
arrow sensors and confirm the entry
with OK.
Touch the sensor to start the
test.
If a crackling noise is heard during
the test accompanied by sparks,
switch the appliance off immediately
(touch and confirm with OK)! Any
crockery which causes this reaction
is unsuitable for use with microwave
power. If any doubt exists about the
suitability of containers, please
contact the manufacturer or supplier.
This test cannot be used to check
whether items with hollow knobs or
handles are suitable for microwave
use.
A microwave lid or cover
- prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
- speeds up the cooking process.
- prevents food from drying out.
- helps keep the oven interior clean.
When using Microwave Solo, always
cover food with a microwave-safe lid.
Suitable covers are available from retail
outlets.
Alternatively, you can use cling film
recommended for use in a microwave
oven by the manufacturer. Normal cling
film may distort with the heat and fuse
with the food.
