Dishes for microwave ovens
CAUTION!
• Tightly sealed containers heated in a microwave can be explosive.
• Sealed containers should be opened and plastic bags should be poked a few times with a fork in order to allow
steam to escape before being placed in the microwave oven.
• If you are unsure about using a certain dish in the microwave oven, then conduct a test.
Checking dishes before using them in the microwave
• Place the dish in the cooking chamber of the oven (a plate, for example) and place a glass cup of water in the
center of the dish.
• Set the microwave to maximum power and heat for no more than one minute.
• Carefully touch the dish you are testing: if it heated up and the water in the cup is cold, than the dish should not
be used in the microwave.
• Avoid testing dishes for more than one minute.

Foil can only be used in grill mode. The distance between the foil and the walls of
the microwave oven should be no less than 2.5 cm.
Small pieces of foil can be used to cover thin pieces of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking.
In microwave mode, if the foil is placed too close to the cooking chamber
walls, arcing, burning out of the screening grill on the door and oven
malfunction can occur. In this case, you void your free warranty service
