Test dinnerware
or cool{ware
before using.
To test a dish, put it into the oven with 1 cup
(250 mL) of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook
power for one minute, if the dish gets hot and
water stays cool, do not use it. Some dishes
(melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.)
absorb microwave energy, and may become too hot
to handle or may slow 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
glaze or trim).
® Never
ban
on the door or allow a child to swing
on it when the door is open,
® Use hot pads,
Microwave
energy
does
not heat
containers,
but the heat from the food
can make
the container
hot,
o Do not use newspaper
or other printed
paper
in
the oven,
o Do not dry flowers,
fruit,
herbs,
wood,
paper,
gourds,
or clothes
in the oven,
o 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 awhile,
® 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
iL
® Do not operate
the microwave
oven unless the
glass turntable
is securely
in place and can rotate
freely, The turntable
can rotate
in either direction,
Mal{e
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 _6 in, (5 mm) above
the turntable,
Follow the directions
supplied
with
the browning
dish,
®Never cool{ 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-boibd
eggs before heating. In rare
cases, poached eggs have been known to
explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a stand-
ing 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 damage the oven.
• Microwaves
may not reach the center of a roast.
The heat 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 time.
o Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable
utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to
maintain appropriate
deep-frying temperatures.
o Do not overcool{
potatoes. At the end of the
recommended
cooking time, potatoes should be
slightly firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time. After microwaving,
let
potatoes
stand for 5 minutes.
They will finish
cooking while standing.
/
If your emectric power mineor outmet voltage is less
than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a
qualified electrician check your electrical system.
