Owner Manual

Make sure all cookware used in
your microwave oven is suitable for
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 for microwaving.”
■ If you are not sure if a dish is
microwave-safe, use this test: Place
in the oven both the dish you are
testing and a glass measuring cup
ILOOHGZLWKFXSRIZDWHU³VHWWKH
measuring cup either in or next to
the dish. Microwave 1 minute at
high. If the dish heats, 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-safe.
■ If you use a meat thermometer while
cooking, make sure it is safe for use
in microwave ovens.
■ Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and
waxed paper may contain metal
flecks which could cause arcing or
ignite. Paper products containing
nylon or nylon filaments should be
avoided, as they may also ignite.
■ Some styrofoam trays (like those
that meat is packaged on) have a
thin strip of metal embedded in the
bottom. When microwaved, 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 for
use in microwave ovens. Check the
package for 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 can
escape.
■ Cookware may become hot because
of heat transferred from the heated
food. Pot holders may be needed to
handle the cookware.
