11.5 What kind of ovenware can be used?

11.5.1Microwaves function

For the microwave function, keep in mind that microwaves are reflected by metal surfaces. Glass, china, clay, plastic, and paper let microwaves pass. For this reason, metal pans and dishes or containers with metal parts or decorations cannot be used in the microwave. Glass ware and clay with metallic decoration or content (e.g. lead crystal) cannot be used in microwave ovens.

The ideal materials for use in microwave ovens are glass, refractory china or clay, or heat resistant plastic. Very thin, fragile glass or china should only be used for short period of times (e.g. heating).

Hot food transmits heat to the dishes which can become very hot. You should, therefore, always use an oven glove!

To test ovenware, put the item you want to use in the oven for 20 seconds at maximum microwave power. After that time, if it is cold or just slightly warm, it is suitable to use. However, if it heats up a lot or causes electric arcing it is not suitable for microwave use.

11.5.2Grill Element and Round Heating Element functions

In the case of the grill function, the ovenware must be resistant to temperature of at least 572°F.

Plastic dishes are not suitable for use in the grill.

11.5.3Combination functions

In the combination functions (microwaves + conventional heating elements), the ovenware used must be suitable for use in both the microwave and the grill.

11.5.4Aluminium containers and foil

Pre-cooked food in aluminium containers or in aluminium foil can be put in the microwave if the following aspects are respected:

Keep in mind the manufacturer’s recommendations written on the packaging.

The aluminium containers cannot be more than 3 cm high or come in contact with the cavity walls (minimum distance 3 cm). Any aluminium lid or top must be removed.

Put the aluminium container directly on top of the turntable plate. If you use the grid iron, put the container on a china plate. Never put the container directly on the grid iron!

The cooking time is longer because the microwaves only enter the food from the top. If you have any doubts, it is best to use only dishes suitable for microwave use.

Aluminium foil can be used to reflect microwaves during the defrosting process. Delicate food, such as poultry or minced meat, can be protected from excessive heat by covering the respective extremities/edges.

Important: aluminium foil cannot come into contact with the cavity walls since this may cause electrical arcing.
