Tlte temperature probe

(if included) in tlte

inserted in tlte tood.

• Metal or fi)il touclting

• Some products suclt as

wltole eggs and sealed

containers t_)r example,

closed jars--are able to

explode and should not

be lteated in tltis

microwave oven. Such use

of tlte microwave o``_n

could result in il/.iury.

• Do not boil eggs in a

will build up inside egg

yolk and will cause it to

burst, possibly resulting

in il/.iury.

• Operating tlte microwave

with no tood inside tbr

II/Ore than a minute or

two may cause damage

to tlte o``'en and could

start a fire. It increases

the heat around tlte

SAFETYFACT

SUPERHEATED WATER

Liquids, such as water,

coffee or tea, are able to

be overheated beyond

the boiling point without

appearing to be boiling.

-- Use extreme care wilen

inserting a spoon or

* Don't defrost frozen

beverages in narrow-

necked bottles (especially

carbonated beverages).

Even it" the container is

opened, pressure can

build up. This can cause

the container to burst,

possibly resulting in

iI_,jury.

* Hot toods and steam

c_ln cause b/Irns, ge

careflfl when opening

any containers of hot

tood, including popcorn

bags, cooking pouches

and boxes. To prevent

possible i@_ry, direct

smam away flom hands

o Do not overcook

potatoes. They could

dehydrate and catch

fire, causing damage

to your oven.

o Cook meat and poultry

thoroughly--meat to

at least an INTERNAl,

temperature of ] 60°F

and poultry to at least an

INTERNAl, temperature

of ] 80°K Cooking to

these temperatures

usually protects against

toodborne illness.

Make sure all cookware

used in your microwave

oven is suitable lot

microwaving. Most glass

casseroles, cooking dishes,

measuring cups, custard

cups, pottery or china

dinnerware which does not

have metallic trim or glaze

with a metallic sheen can

be used. Some cookware

is labeled "suitable tbr

Illicfowaving."

How to test for a microwave-

safe dish.

• If you are not sure if

a dish is microwave-sale,

use tl-fis test: Place in the

oven 1)oth the dish you

are testing and a glass

measuring cup filled with

1 cup of water--set the

measuring cup either

in or next to the dish.

Microwave 30-45 seconds

at lfigh. If the dish lmats,

it should not be used for

microwaving.

If the dish remains cool

and only the water in the

cup heats, then the dish

is microwave-sale.

If you use a meat

thermometer wl-file

cooking, make sure it is

sale Jot use in microwave

()VeilS,

• Do not use recycled

paper products. P,ecycled

paper towels, napkins

and waxed paper can

contain metal flecks

which may cause arcing

or ignite. Paper products

containing nylon or

nylon filaments should

be avoided, as they may

also ignite.

• Some stvrolbam tl_ay:s

(like those that meat is

packaged on) have a thin

strip of metal embedded

in the bottom. When

microwavcd, the metal can

burn the floor of the oven

or ignite a paper towel.

•Do not use the microwave

to dry newspapers.

• Not all plastic wrap

is suitable Jot use in

ii/icrowave ovells.

Check the package

Jot proper use.

• Paper towels, waxed

paper and plastic wrap

can be used to cover

dishes in order to retain

moisture and prevent

spattering. Be sure to

vent plastic wrap so

steam Call escape.

• Cookware may become

hot because of heat

translcrred tiom the

heated tood. Pot holders

may be needed to handle

the cookware.

• "Boilable" cooking

pouches and tightly

closed plastic bags should

be slit, pierced or vented

as directed by package.

If they are not, plastic

could burst during or

immediately after

cooking, possibly resulting

in il/jury. Ms(), plastic

storage containers should

be at least partially

uncovered because they

form a tight seal. YVhen

cooking with containers

tightly covered with

plastic wrap, remove

covering careflflly and

direct steam away ti'om

hands and lace.

SPECIAL NOTES ABO UF MICRO WAVING

o Use %il only as directed in

this manual. When using

toil in tile microwave

oven, keep the toil at least

]" away from tile sides of

the oven.

Plastic cookware--Plasfic

cookware designed %r

microwave cooking is very

useflll, but should be used

carefllll)_ Even microwave-

sate plastic may not be as

tolerant of overcooking

conditions as are glass or

ceramic materials and

may soften or char if

subjected to short periods

of overcooking. In longer

exposures to overcooking,

the tood and cookware

could ignite.

Follow these guidelines:

IUse microwave-sate

plastics only and use

them in strict compliance

with the cookware

2Do not microwave empty

containers.

Do not permit children

to use plastic cookware

without comple/e

supervision.

The tim will operate

automatically under

certain conditions (see

Automatic Fan teamre).

Take care to prevent tile

starting and spreading of

accidental cooking fires

while tile vent tim is ill use.

o Clean tile underside of

the microwave often.

Do not allow grease

to build up on the

microwave or the

tim filter.

o In the event of a grease

fire on the surface units

below the microwave

oven, smother a flaming

pan on the surfilce unit

by covering the pan

completely with a lid, a

cookie sheet or a fiat tra>

o Use care when cleaning

the vent tim filter.

Corrosive cleaning

agents, such as lye-1)ased

oven cleaners, may

damage the filter.

o When preparing

flaming %ods under

the microwave, turn the

vent tim on.

o Never leave surtitce units

beneath your microwave

oven unattended at high

heat settings. Boilovers

cause smoking and greasy

spillovers that may ignite

and spread if the

microwave vent t_m is

operating. To minimize

automatic tim operation,

use adequate sized

cookware and use high

heat on surt_tce units

only when necessary.
