1. Without any gold or silver leaf edging; no lead crystal.
2. Keep the manufacturer’s instructions in mind!
3. Do not use metal clips for closing bags. Make holes in the bags. Use the films only to cover
the food.
4. Do not use paper plates.
5. Only shallow aluminium containers without lids/tops.
▷ The aluminium must not come into contact with the cavity walls.
▷ Put an aluminium container directly on top of the ceramic base. If you use the rack, put
the container on a china plate. Never put the container directly on the rack!
6. The cookware you use must be resistant to a temperature of at least 300 °C.
