Use plastic wrap that is recommended for use in a microwave oven. Heat can cause common household plastic wrap to become deformed and fuse with the food.
,Sealed containers and glass jars, such as jars of baby food, must be opened before they are placed in the microwave oven.
Do not cook or reheat food or liquids in sealed containers, jars or bottles. With baby bottles, the screw top and nipple must be removed. Otherwise, pressure can build up causing the bottle or container to explode.
Do not use a lid or cover if:
–Food coated with breadcrumbs is being cooked.
–Cooking meals which are to be given a crisp finish.
,The plate cover must only ever be used with the Microwave Solo mode.
Because the cover can only withstand temperatures of up to 230°F (110°C), it should only be used in the microwave oven and solely in the Microwave Solo mode. At temperatures in excess of 230°F (110°C), the plastic can melt and fuse with the food.
The cover should not form a seal with the container. If the cover is used with a container which only has a narrow diameter, there may not be enough room for condensation to escape through the side openings. The cover will overheat and may begin to melt.
