USING THE MICROWAVE SETTING
Guidelines for microwave cookware
Cookware that you use for the microwave setting should not block the microwaves. Metals
such as stainless steel, aluminium and copper reflect microwaves. For that reason, do not use
metal cookware. Cookware which is designated as microwave-safe can be used safely. For
more information about suitable cookware, consult the followingguidelines and always use
the ceramic baking tray on level 1 if you use the microwave setting.
