Utensils Guide

It is strongly recommended to use appropriate containers and not dangerous for cooking in the microwave. In general, plastic containers, glass or ceramic heat resistant are suitable for cooking in the microwave. Never use metal containers for cooking in the oven or microwave combination cooking, as this is highly likely to cause sparks. You can refer to the table below for guidance.

Defrosting tips

Microwaves penetrate about 4 cm in most foods. To maximize the effectiveness of thawing, it is recommended:

1. For thick food, turn them regularly while using the Microwave oven so that they are evenly heated.
2. For food of more than 0.5 kg, it is recommended to the back at least 2 times.
3. Thawed foods should be eaten as soon as possible. It is not recommended to put them in the refrigerator or refreeze them.

Cooking tips
The following factors may impact the result of cooking:
Position food
Place the thicker areas outwardly of the plate and the thinner portions to the center of the dish by distributing the food evenly. Whenever possible, do not stack.
Cooking times
Start cooking in a short time, evaluate the result at the end of this period and extend it depending on the desired result. Overcooking can generate smoke and charring.
Cook food evenly
Foods such as chicken, hamburgers, and steaks should be turned once during cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, mix them outside to the center of the dish once or twice during cooking.
Leave a rest
When finished cooking, let the food stand in the oven for an appropriate time, this enables the cooking cycle to finalize and the food to cool gradually.
Assess whether the food is cooked
The color and hardness of food help determine if cooked, this includes:

• The steam comes out of all parts of the food, not just the edges.
• poultry joint view can be animated easily.
• Pork or poultry does not contain traces of blood.
• The fish is opaque and can be easily cut with a fork.

Browning dish
When using a browning dish or self-heating container, always place it on heat- resistant insulation (eg a porcelain dish) to prevent damage to the turntable and the rotary axis of the turntable.
Film-compatible plastic microwave
When cooking very fatty foods, make sure the foil does not fall in contact with the food as it may melt.
Suitable plastic cookware microwave
Some plastic utensils compatible with microwaves may not be suitable to cook very fat or very sweet foods. In addition, the preheating time specified in the flat operating instructions must not be exceeded.
