Metal
Metal containers should not be used. Microwaves cannot penetrate through metal and therefore the food will not cook. Metal foil may be used to shield food from overcoo- king or over
Covering
Some foods such as vegetables, should be cooked in covered glass dishes to speed up cooking, to prevent spattering or to retain their large water content. Be parti- cularly careful when removing covers from cooked dishes, as steam builds up and can cause nasty burns to the hands and arms if caution is not exercised.
Browning Dishes
These are suitable for use in your microwave oven. The empty browning dish is placed in the oven and preheated at maximum level according to the instructions provided with the browning dish. The browning dish will get extre- mely hot so make sure oven gloves are worn. It is impor- tant when using a browning dish that an insulator is pla- ced between the dish and the glass turntable, to prevent heat stress and damage to the glass. Pyrex may be used as an insulator.
DO NOT USE THE FOLLOWING COOKING UTENSILS
-Metal containers or dishes with metallic rims.

-Foiled lined packages or cartons, such as the type used for take away foods or freezer storage, as it shi- eld foods from the microwave energy and prevents cooking.
-Do not heat unopened food containers in the oven.Pressure may build up and cause the container to burst.
Baby´s bottles fitted with a crew cap or teat are consi- dered to be sealed containers.
Precautions to avoid possible exposure to microwave energy:
a.Do Not Attempt to operate this oven by circu- mventing the safety devices or tampering with the interlocks in an attempt to use the oven with the door open.

Your unit will not work with the door open. Were the safety features to be over ridden, this could result in harmful exposure to microwave energy.
b.Do Not Place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
c.Do Not Operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close proper- ly and that there is no damage to the door (if it has been bent), hinges and latches (broken or loosened), door seals an sealing surface.
