The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to

publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive

harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during

the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

WARNING!

MICROWAVE-SAFECOOKWARE

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china dinnerware which does

not have metallic trim or glaze with a metallic sheen can be used. Some cookware is labeled

"suitable for microwaving."

ff you are not sure if a dish is microwave- safe, use this test: Place ill the oven both

the dish you are testing and a glass measuring cup filled xdth 1 cup of water--

set the measuring cup either ill or next to the dish. Microwave 35-45 seconds at high. If the dish heats, it should not be used

for microwm,ing. If the dish remains cool and only the

water ill the cup heats, then the dish is microwave-safe.

If you use a meat thermometer while cooking, make sure it is safe for use ill

microwave ovens. Do not use recycled paper products.

Recycled paper towels, napkins and waxed paper may contain metal flecks

which could cause arcing or ignite. Paper products containing nylon or nylon filaments should be avoided, since they may also i_lite.

Some Styrofoam trays (like those that meat is packaged on) have a thin strip

of metal embedded ill the bottom. When microwaved, the metal Call burn the floor of the oven or i_lite a paper towel.

Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use ill microwave ovens. Check the package for

proper use.

Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap Call be used to cover dishes ill order to retain moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so steam

Call escape.

Oversized fbod or oversized metal cookware should not be used ill a microwave oven. Electrical shock or

fire could occui:

While paper plates may be used for timed

cooking and deflosting, do not use them

with Auto Sensor cooking. Use microwave-

safe plains or bowls for reheating. Cover

with plastic wrap.

Cookware may become hot because of heat transferred flom the heated

food. Pot holders may be needed to

handle the cookware.

"Boilable" cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic bags should be slit, pierced

or vented as directed by package. If they are not, plastic could burst during or

immediately 'after cooking, possibly resulting ill injui T. Also, plastic storage containers should be at least partially uncovered because they form a tight seal.

When cooking xdth containers tightly

covered _dth plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam

ms,ay flom hands and face. Use foil only as directed ill this manual.

TV dinners may be microwaved ill foil trays less than 3/4" high; remove the top

foil cover and return the tray to the box. When using foil ill the microwave oven,

keep the foil at least 1 inch ms,ay flom the sides of the oven.

Plastic cookware - Plastic cookware desi_md It_r microwave cooking is veU

useful, but should be used carefully. _] Even microwave-safe plastic may not

Follow these guidelines:

ARCING

If you see arcing, press the CLEAR/OFFpad and correct the problem.

Arcing is the microwave term forsparks in the

oven.Arcing is caused by:

Metal or foil touching the side of the oven. Foil not molded to Ik_od (upturned edges

act like anmnnas).

Metal, such as twist-ties, poult_T pins or gold-rimmed dishes, in the microwave.

Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.

Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in strict compliance xdth

the cookware manufacturer's recommendations.

Do not microwave empty containers. Do not permit children to use

plastic cookware xdthout complete super_,ision.

SUPERHEATEDWATER

Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point.

They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all.

Superheated liquid xdll bubble up out of the cup when it is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it.

To prevent this flom happening and causing in,jury, do not heat any liquid fk_rmore than 9 minutes per cup.

After heating, let the cup stand in the

microwave for 30 seconds befk_re mox,ing it or putting anything into it.

Under certain special circumstances, liquids

may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave oven.

To prevent burns flom splashing liquid, we recommend the f_llo_dng bef_re remox,ing

Allow the container to stand in the oven for 30 to 40 seconds _ter the oven has shut ore

Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked

containers such as soft drink bottles, wine
