Utensils should be checked to ensure that they are suitable for use in each cooking mode. When heating food in plastic containers, pay special attention to the melting temperature of the containers. Never heat the plastic containers at over their melting temperature. Keep an eye on the oven due to the possibility of melting and ignition.
