6. THE USE OF UTENSILS AND RECIPIENTS Always make a slit in the food s shell before cooking it Whenever heating liquids use a recipient with a large opening to allow the vapour to escape Remember that 1 Larger quantities of food require more cooking time 2 The lower the food temperature the more cooking time is needed 3 Less dense foods cook faster 4 An even distribution of the food in the oven guarantees better results The cooking of different types of foods simultaneously is possible by placing the dense food in an outside circle and the less dense in the centre of the plate 5 Better results are achieved by allowing the food to stand before serving because it continues to cook for some time after the oven is switched off 6 The cooking time may be shortened and the liquids preserved the food doesn t dry out by covering the food The lids should be transparent to allow the microwaves through and they should have a small opening for the vapour to escape Functioning of the grill only in models with grill The glass on the door reaches high temperatures during grilling Therefore the oven should be installed at least 80 cm above the floor SO AS TO BE OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN While in operation the inside walls of the oven and the grill become very hot therefore the use of kitchen gloves is recommended For best results of the grill use the grill rack supplied with the appliance Do not place the grill rack

8. in contact with the cavity s metal surface as there may be an electric arc and consequent damages 16 Advice on the use of Cookware Metal Do not use metal dishes tinned food food wrapped in tin foil and cutlery inside the microwave oven The metal reflects the microwaves and food is not heated The food should be removed from its tin foil containers and placed in dishes adequate for use in the microwave oven As microwaves don t penetrate tin foil the food heats only on the surface By using appropriate dishes the heat is evenly distributed throughout the food EXCEPTIONS To cook or defrost pieces of meat of irregular sizes you may cover the thinner parts with tin foil which should be kept at least 2 cm away from the oven walls otherwise these may cause an electric arc Metal spits may be used as long as they are smaller than the pieces of meat Glass All heat proof glass containers may be used Crystal contains a percentage of lead which may cause it to crack if used in the microwave oven The same may happen to glass dishes with jagged edges Porcelain Porcelain dishes may be used but they should not have hollow handles Humidity may be formed inside the hollow handles which will causes an increase in pressure that may cause them to break Glazed Ceramic Dishes This type of dish may heat considerably Painted glazed ceramic dishes may be used if the painting is done under the glaze Many glazes and col
