Browning dishes should only be used in a microwave oven or as a serving dish. In a conventional oven the special glaze would suffer damage.
Page 14
In a microwave oven there is a high-frequency tube called a magnetron. This converts electrical energy into microwaves. These microwaves are distributed evenly throughout the oven interior and rebound off the metal sides of the oven interior to reach the food from all sides.

If in doubt as to whether glass, earthenware or porcelain plates or dishes are suitable for use in a microwave oven, a simple test can be performed: ^ Place the item you wish to test in the centre of the oven, fill a suitable glass with water and also place this in the oven.
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). Normal clingfilm can distort. Sealed glass containers, such as jars of baby food must be opened before they are placed in the oven.

There are three grill settings. It is possible to change from one grill setting to another during operation. Do not operate the grill if it has been lowered, e.g. for cleaning. This would damage it. If the total grilling time required is less than 15 minutes, the grill should be pre-heated for at least 5 minutes before placing food under the grill.

Never reheat hard boiled eggs in a microwave oven, even without the shell. The eggs can burst. Food taken straight from the refrigerator will take longer to reheat than food stored at room temperature.
Page 30
Eggs can burst, even after they have been taken out of the oven. Eggs can be cooked without their shells in the microwave oven only if the yolk membrane has been punctured several times first. The pressure could otherwise cause the egg yolk to explode.
