WARNING!
Metal or foil touching the
side of the oven.
Foil not molded to food
(upturned edges act like
antennas).
Do not pop popcorn in your
microwave oven unless in a
special microwave popcorn
accessory or unless you use
popcorn labeled for use in
microwave ovens.
Some products such as whole
eggs and sealed containers—
for example, closed jars—
are able to explode and
should not be heated in this
microwave oven. Such use of
the microwave oven could
result in injury.
Do not boil eggs in a
microwave oven. Pressure
will build up inside egg yolk
and will cause it to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
I
Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry
pins, or gold-rimmed dishes,
in the microwave.
I
Recycled paper towels
containing small metal pieces
being used in the microwave.
I
Operating the microwave with
no food inside for more than
a minute or two may cause
damage to the oven and could
start a fire. It increases the heat
around the magnetron and can
shorten the life of the oven.
I
Foods with unbroken outer
"skin" such as potatoes, hot
dogs, sausages, tomatoes,
apples, chicken livers and
other giblets, and egg yolks
should be pierced to allow
steam to escape during
cooking.
I
Don't defrost frozen beverages
in narrow-necked bottles
(especially carbonated
beverages). Even if the
container is opened, pressure
can build up. This can cause
the container to burst, possibly
resulting in injury.
