COOKING UTENSILS GUIDE

This section lists which utensils can be used in this microwave, which have limited use for short periods, and which should
not be used in this microwave.
RECOMMENDED
Microwave browning dish -- Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the
directions provided with your browning dish.
Microwaveable plastic wrap -- Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it
directly on the food.
Paper towels and napkins -- Use for short-term heating and covering; these absorb excess moisture and prevent
splattering. Do not use recycled paper towels which may contain metal and could ignite.
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes -- Use for heating and cooking.
Paper plates and cups -- Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper which may contain
metal and could ignite.
Wax paper -- Use as a cover to prevent splattering.
Thermometers -- Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and follow all directions. Check the food in several places.
Conventional thermometers may be used on microwaved food once the food has been removed from the microwave.
LIMITED USE
Aluminum foil -- Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your
microwave, so be careful. Keep 1" between foil and microwave cavity.
Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware -- Use these if they are labeled "Microwave Safe". If they are not labeled, test them to
make sure they can be used safely.
Plastic -- Only use if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other plastics may melt.
NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass jars and bottles -- Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.
Paper bags -- These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
Styrofoam plates and cups -- These can melt and leave unhealthy residue on food.
