Troubleshooting
The mat slides during rotation.
Ensure both the microwave glass turntable and the bottom of the silicone mat are clean and dry before use to maximize the non-slip grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your mat, simply place it centered on your existing microwave turntable. It is specifically designed to fit turntables around 27 cm in width. When it comes to care, the mat is dishwasher safe; however, it can also be cleaned by hand with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these may damage the silicone surface over time. Despite its heat resistance, always use caution when removing the mat if it has been exposed to high-heat spills, as the silicone may retain heat.
