Heating Or Reheating Guide - Maytag UMC1061AA Owner's Manual

To heat or reheat successfully in the microwave, it is important to follow several guidelines. Measure the amount of food
in order to determine the time needed to reheat. Arrange the food in a circular pattern for best results. Room tempera-
ture food will heat faster than refrigerated food. Canned foods should be taken out of the can and placed in a microwav-
able container. The food will be heated more evenly if covered with a microwavable lid or plastic wrap, vented. Remove
cover carefully to prevent steam burns. Use the following chart as a guide for reheating cooked food.
