What kind of ovenware can be used?
9.4.1 Microwave Function
For the microwave function, notice that glass, china, clay, plastic, and paper can be used as
container. Metal pans, dishes or containers with metal parts or decorations cannot be used in
the microwave. Glassware and clay with metallic decoration or content (e.g. lead crystal) cannot

The ideal material for microwave oven is glass, refractory china or clay, or heat resistant plastic.
Very thin, fragile glass or china should only be used for short period of time (e.g. heating)

For the grill function, the ovenware should be resistant to temperature of at least 300ºC. Plastic
dishes are not suitable for the grill function.

In the combination functions, the ovenware used should be suitable for both microwave and grill.
10. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or performing maintenance on your oven, disconnect the oven from the
power supply. To extend the lifespan of your oven, it must be cleaned frequently.
The enamel or stainless steel parts should be cleaned with lukewarm water without using any
abrasive powders or corrosive substances which could damage the surface. If the stains are
difficult to be removed, use mild cleaner with hot soapy water to clean the area.
10.1 Cleaning the Oven Cavity
WARNING: Microwave should not work without turntable.
The inside of the oven should preferably be cleaned after using. With the oven
temperature cool down, clean the oven with hot soapy water. The soap must be rinsed
away and the interior to dry thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive detergents (for example
cleaning powders, acid, thinner and etc.) as these could damage the enamel part of the
oven. Never use a steam cleaner to clean the inside of the oven.
Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers which may damage the oven.
Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Make sure water does not permeate into the microwave ventilation holes.
Regularly take out the turntable plate and the respective support and clean the cavity base,
especially after any liquid spillage.
If the oven cavity is very dirty, put a glass of water on the turntable and switch on the
microwave oven for 2 or 3 minutes at maximum power. The steam released will soften the
dirt which can then be cleaned easily using a soft cloth.
