TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE OVEN USE: Fill a 1- cup glass measure with water
and place it in the microwave oven along with the container to be tested; heat one (1) minute at P10
(HIGH). If the container is microwave oven-safe (transparent to microwave energy), the container should
remain comfortably cool and the water should be hot. If the container is hot, it has absorbed some
microwave energy and should NOT be used. This test cannot be used for plastic containers.
