Remember to remove covers and stoppers from feeding bottles, jars, bottles and
plastic containers.
Disposable containers
Never leave the appliance to run unsupervised when using disposable containers in
plastic, paper or other inflammable materials.
If you see smoke appear, keep the oven door closed and disconnect your appliance.
Metal containers
Never use metallic materials and containers for microwave cooking.
You can, however, use your appliance to heat or defrost certain preparations in
metallic trays, provided the height of the tray does not exceed 4 cm, not including
the cover.
With regard to the cover, follow the instructions on the package. It will have to be
removed or left in place, as the case may be. If not indicated otherwise, play safe
and remove it.
Centre the tray(s) on the turntable, leaving at least 1 cm clearance from the oven
walls. If there are several trays, space them at least 2 cm apart.
