Testing your dinnerware or cookware

Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To test

a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of

water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one

minute. If the dish gets hot, do not use it. Some

dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.)

absorb microwave energy, becoming loo hot to handle

and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal

containers not designed for microwave use could

damage the oven, as could containers with hidden

metal (twist-lies, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or

trim).

Operating safety precautions

> Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it

when the door is open.

> Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heal

containers, but the heal from the food can make the

container hot.

> Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in the

oven.

> Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds,

or clothes In the oven.

> Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty.

Product life may be shortened. If you practice

programming the oven, put a container of water in

the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look wavy

after the oven has been running for a while.

> Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven. Paraffin

wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it

allows microwaves to pass through it.

> Do not operate the microwave oven unless the glass

turntable is securely in place and can move freely.

The turntable can move in either direction. Make

sure the turntable is correct-side up in the oven.

Handle your turntable with care when removing it

from the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your

turntable cracks or breaks, contact your dealer for a

replacement.

> When you use a browning dish, the browning dish

bottom must be at least 3/ie inch above the turntable.

Follow the directions supplied with the browning dish.

> Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the

shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them

to burst, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-

boiled eggs before healing. In rare cases, poached

eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached

eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before

cutting into them.

• For best results, stir any liquid several times

during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in

certain containers (especially containers shaped like

cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid may

splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or

when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags,

etc.). This can harm the oven.

> Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast.

The heal spreads to the center from the outer,

cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This is

one of the reasons for letting some foods (for

example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a while

after cooking, or for stirring some foods during the

cooking lime.

> Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils

are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain

appropriate deep-frying temperatures.

> Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the

recommended cooking time, potatoes should be

slightly firm because they will continue cooking

during standing lime. After microwaving, let

potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking

while standing.

Electrical connection

If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less

than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer.

Have a qualified electrician check your electrical

system.
