Testing your' dinnerware or cookware

Test dinnerware or cookware before using. To test a dish for safe use, put _into the oven with a cup of

water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets _t, do not use it.

Some dishes (melamine, _me ceramic dinne_are, etc.) absod3 microwave energy, b_ming too hot to

handle and sl_ing cooking times, Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could damage

the oven, as could containers with hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic gl_e or trim)

Operating safety precautions

• Never lean on the door or allow a ch[_ to swing on it _en the door is open.

• Use hot _. Microwave energy does not:heat _ntainers, but the heat from the fo_ can make the

container hot,

• _ not use newsp_er or other printed p_er inthe oven

• _ not dry flowers, fruit, h,e_s, wood, paper, gourds, or cloth_ in the oven.

• Do not start a microwave oven when it is erupt. Pr_uct life may be shortened. If you practice programming

the oven, put a container of water in the oven. It is normaJ for the oven door to look wavy after the oven has

been running for a while.

• Do not t_ to melt paraffin wax inthe oven, Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it all_s

microwaves to pass through it.

• DOnot operate the microwave oven unless the glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate freely. The

turntable can rotate in either direction. Make sum the turntable is_rrect-side up in the oven. Ha_|e your

turntable wi_ care when removing itfrom the oven to avoid possibly breaking it. If your turntable cr_ks or

breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.

• When you use a browni_ dish, the browning dish bottom must _ at least 3/16 inch above the turntable.

Follow the dir_tions supplied with the browning dish.

• Never cr_ _ reheat a whole _g inside the s,_l, Ste_ buildup inwhole _s may cause them to burst,

and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating, in rare cases, poached eggs have

been known to expire. Cover poohed eggs and allow a _anding time of one minute before cutting into

them

• For best results, stir any liquid several Umes dudr_ heating or reheating. Uqu_s heated in certain

containers (especially containers shaped like cylinders) may b_ome 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 heat spreads to the center from the outer, _oked

areas just as in regular oven cooking, This is one of the reasons for le_ir_ some foods (for example, roasts or

baked potatoes) stand for a while after _oking, or for stirring some foods dudng the cooking time.

- Do not d_ f_ in the oven. Microwavab]e utensils are not suitable and it isdifficult to maintain appropriate

deep-f_ing temperatures.

• Do not overcook potatoes. At the end of the r_ommended _king time, potatoes should be slightly firm

because they will continue cooking dudng standing time. After microwaving, let potatoes stand for 5

minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

Electrical connection

I f your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than i 10 volts, cooking times may' be Ionger_Have a

qualified electrician check your electrical system.
