Microwave cookware guide

Cookware used for Microwave Mode must allow microwaves to pass through and penetrate food. Metals such as stainless steel, aluminum and copper reflect microwaves. Therefore, do not use cookware made of metallic materials. Cookware marked microwave - safe is always safe for use. For additional information on appropriate cookware refer to the following guide and always use the ceramic tray on shelf Level 1 when using microwave mode.
