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.
Broiler and Convection function
In the case of the Broiler function, the
ovenware must be resistant to temperature of
at least 572°F. Plastic dishes are not suitable
for use in the Broiler.
Combined functions
In the combined function, the ovenware must
be suitable for use in conventional heating
functions (microwave and grill).
Aluminum containers and foil
Pre-cooked food in aluminum containers or in
aluminum 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 aluminum containers cannot be more
than 3 cm high or come in contact with the
cavity walls (minimum distance 3 cm).
Any aluminum lid or top must be removed.
Put the aluminum 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.
Aluminum 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: aluminum foil cannot come into
contact with the cavity walls since this may
cause electrical arcing.
Lids
We recommend you use glass or plastic lids
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.
