ANSWERS
Steam is normally produced during cooking.
The microwave oven has been designed to
vent this steam out the top vents.
The bottom of your Crisper Pan is coated
with a special material that absorbs the mag-
netic part of the microwave energy. This
material becomes very hot and transfers heat
to the bottom of the Crisper Pan for higher
temperature cooking.
Sparking is caused by burning off of fat from
past cooking. It will stop when fat is all burned
off of the oven.
