Plastics

Use plastic dishes

only

for

Microwave - Solo. They must be
heat resistant up to 230°F (110°C)
otherwise the plastic may melt into
the food.

Special plasticware, designed for use
in microwave ovens is available in retail
outlets.

Plastic boiling bags can be used for
cooking and reheating.
They should be pierced beforehand
so that steam can escape. This
prevents a build-up of pressure and
reduces the risk of the bag bursting.

Disposable containers

Only those plastic disposable
containers specified under "Plastics"
are suitable for use in the oven.

Do not leave the oven unattended
when reheating or cooking food in
disposable containers made of
plastic, paper or other flammable
materials.

Disposable containers are not always
microwave safe.

Roasting bags

These bags can be used in the oven.
Please follow the manufacturers’
instructions.

,

Do not use metal clips, plastic

clips with metal parts, or twist ties
containing wire. They could ignite
when heated.
