Unsuitable ovenware
Metal ovenware is unsuitable. Metal does not allow microwaves
to pass through. Food in covered metal containers will remain
cold.
Caution!
Creation of sparks: metal – e.g. a spoon in a glass – must be
kept at least 2 cm from the oven walls and the inside of the
door. Sparks could destroy the glass on the inside of the door.

Do not switch on the microwave unless there is food inside. The
following ovenware test is the only exception to this rule.

ovenware is suitable for use in the microwave:

1.
1 minute.
Check the temperature occasionally during that time.

The ovenware should still be cold or warm to the touch.
The ovenware is unsuitable if it becomes hot or sparks are
generated.
