IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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 spattering. Do not use
recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes — Use for heating or
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 spattering.
Thermometers — Use only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and
follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional
thermometers may be used on microwave food once the food has
been removed from the oven.
LIMITED USE
Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of
exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be
careful. You should keep distance of 1 inch (2.54cm) between
aluminum foil and 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 — Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other plastics can
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.
Styrofoam plates and cups — These can melt and leave an unhealthy
residue on food.
Plastic storage and food containers — Containers such as margarine
tubs can melt in the microwave.
Metal utensils — These can damage your oven. Remove all metal
before cooking.
Note:
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the
empty dish in the oven and microwave at high power level for 30
seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.
