FOODS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
n When microwaving, place all foods and
containers on the clear glass tray.
n Do not pop popcorn in your oven unless in
a special microwave popcorn accessory or
unless you use popcorn labeled for use in
microwave ovens.
n Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will
build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to
burst, possibly resulting in injury.
n Do not operate oven without food inside.
This may cause damage to the oven. It
increases the heat around the magnetron
and can shorten the life of the oven.
n 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.
n Don't defrost frozen beverages in
narrow-necked bottles (especially
carbonated beverages). Even if the
container is open, pressure can build up.
This can cause the container to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
n Foods cooked in liquids (such as
pasta) may tend to boil more rapidly
than foods containing less moisture.
Should this occur, refer to the Care
and Cleaning of the oven section for
instructions on how to clean the
inside of the oven.
n Hot foods and steam can cause
burns. Be careful when opening any
containers of hot food, including popcorn
bags, cooking pouches and boxes.
To prevent possible injury, direct steam
away from hands and face.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Advantium Oven
n Do not overcook potatoes. They could
dehydrate and catch fire, causing
damage to your oven.
n Avoid heating baby food in glass jars,
even with the lid off. Make sure all infant
food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to
distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to
prevent scalding when warming formula.
The container may feel cooler than the
formula really is. Always test the formula
before feeding the baby.
n Do not attempt to deep fry in the oven.
n SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are able to
be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or
boiling when the container is removed from
the microwave oven is not always present.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS
SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE
CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
— Do not overheat the liquid.
— Stir the liquid both before and halfway
through heating it.
— Do not use straight-sided containers
with narrow necks.
— After heating, allow the container
to stand in the microwave oven for
a short time before removing the
container.
— Use extreme care when inserting
a spoon or other utensil into the
containe
