pass through the container and heat the food.

2. Microwave cannot penetrate metal, so
metal utensils or dishes with metallic trim
should not be used.

3. Do not use recycled paper products when
microwave cooking, as they may contain small
metal fragments which may cause sparks

The list below is a general guide to help you select the correct utensils.

and/or fires.

4. Round /oval dishes rather than

square/oblong ones are recommend, as food in
corners tends to overcook.

5. Narrow strips of aluminum foil may be used

to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. But
be careful don’t use too much and keep a
distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between foil and
cavity.

OVEN POSITIONING

1. Make sure that all packing materials are
removed from inside of the door.

2. Check the oven for any damage, such as a
misaligned or bent door, damaged door seals
and sealing surface, broken or loose door
hinges and latches and dents inside the cavity

enough to safely bear the weight of the oven.

4. Do not locate the oven near areas where heat
and moisture are generated as this may lower
oven efficiency.

5. Covering the air vents may lead to
malfunctioning; therefore a minimum clearance of 20cm is required above the oven,
10cm at the back and 5cm to each side of the oven.
