ruined.

USING UTENSILS WHEN PREPARING FOOD

Beforestartingtopreparefoodincontainers,youshould

check that the containers you wish to use are made of a

suitable material, as some types of plastic may become

limp and deform, while some types of ceramics may crack

(particularlywhenheatingsmallquantitiesoffood).

In order to test if a container is suitable for use in a

microwave oven:

• Placethecontainerintheappliance.

• Atthesametime,placeahalf-fullglassofwaterinthe

container.

• Start,andrunfor15-30secondsonmaximumpower.

• Ifthecontainerbecomesveryhottothetouch,donot

use it.

Suitable utensils and materials

Whencookingfoodinamicrowaveoven,youshould

PREFERABLYusethefollowingutensilsandmaterials:

• Glass and glass bowls

• Stoneware(glazedandunglazed).Thefoodstayshot

longer in glazed stoneware than in other dishes.

• Plastic containers.Canbeusedformanyheating

purposes.Caution!Plasticcontainersmadefrom

melamine,polyethyleneandphenolmustNOTbeused.

• Porcelain. Allporcelaincanbeusedinthemicrowave

oven,althoughreproofporcelainispreferable.

• Fireproof covered dishes.Glassdisheswithlids

thattsocloselythatsteamcannotescapeareideal

forvegetablesandfruittowhichnoliquidisadded

(however,thecookingtimemustnotexceed5minutes).

• BrowningdishesYoumustbeverycarefulwhenusing

thistypeofdish.Neverheatthebrowningdishformore

than5minutesontheturntable.Suitableinsulation,

suchasaheat-testedplate,shouldbeplacedbetween

the browning dish and the turntable to prevent the

turntable from overheating.

• Microwaveroastinglmcanbeused,particularlyfor

soups, sauces, stewed dishes or when defrosting food.

Canalsobeusedasaloosecoveringtopreventfat,etc.

from spraying out into the oven compartment.

• Kitchen roll is ideal, as it absorbs moisture and fat.

For example, bacon can be placed in layers, with

kitchenrollbetweeneachlayer.Thebaconwillthen

be completely crispy, as it does not sit in its own fat.

Home-bakedbreadcanbetakendirectlyfromthe

freezer, wrapped in kitchen roll and heated in the

microwave oven.

• Wet kitchen rollcanbeusedforshorvegetables.

Coveringthefoodpreventsitfromdryingout.

• Greaseproof paper Fish, large vegetables, such as

cauliower,cornonthecobandsimilarcanbewrapped

in wet greaseproof paper.

• Roasting bagsareidealformeat,shandvegetables.

However,theymustneverbeclosedusingmetalclips.

Cottonthreadshouldbeusedinstead.Prickthebag

with small holes, and place it in the microwave oven on

a plate or glass dish.

Unsuitable utensils and materials

Whencookingfoodinamicrowaveoven,youmustNOT

use the following utensils and materials:

• Sealed glass jars/bottles with small openings, as

they may explode.

• General-purpose thermometers

• Silver foil/foil trays, as the microwave rays cannot

penetrate the material and the food will not cook.

• Recycled paper, as it may contain small metal

splinters that could cause sparks and/or re.

• Closed tins/containers with tightly sealed lids, as

excesspressuremaycausethetin/containertoexplode.

• Metalclipsandlids/lmcontainingmetallicthreads

since they can cause sparks in the microwave oven and

must therefore be removed.

• Metal bowls/containers and packaging, unless they

aredesignedspecicallyforuseinmicrowaveovens.

Themicrowavesarereectedandcannotpenetratethe

food through the metal.

• Plates, dishes and bowls/containers with metal, gold

and silver decorations.Theymaybreakand/orcause

sparks to form in the oven compartment.

the following points:

• Turnofftheapplianceandremovetheplugfromthewall

socket before cleaning.

• Cleantheappliancebywipingitwithadampcloth.A

little detergent can be added if the appliance is heavily
