The cover
–
prevents too much steam escaping,
especially when cooking foods which
need longer to cook, such as
potatoes.
–
shortens and evens out the cooking
process.
–
prevents food from drying out.
–
prevents any loss of aroma.
–
helps keep the oven interior clean.
Always cover food with the cover
supplied.
Alternatively, use lids or covers made of
microwave-safe glass or plastic, or use
a clingfilm recommended for use in a
microwave oven (pierce as instructed
by the manufacturer).
Heat can cause normal clingfilm to
distort and fuse with the food.
Sealed glass containers, such as
jars of baby food, must be opened
before they are placed in the oven.
Do not use a lid or cover if
–
food coated with breadcrumbs is
being cooked.
–
cooking meals which are to be given
a crisp finish.
–
the gourmet plate is being used.
Because the cover can only
withstand temperatures of up to
110 °C it must only be used in
microwave-solo mode. It must not be
used in conjunction with the gourmet
plate. At temperatures in excess of
110 °C the plastic can melt and get
into the food.
The cover should not form a seal
with the container. If the cover is
used with a container which only has
a narrow diameter, there might not
be enough room for condensation to
escape through the holes in the top.
The cover could get too hot and
could start to melt.
