Make sure all cookware used in your microwave
oven is suitable Jbr 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 tot
microwaving."
How to test for a
microwave-safe dish,
If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-satE, use this test: Place in the
oven both the dish you are testing and a glass measuring cup filled with 1 cup of water--set the measuring cup either in
or next to the dish. Microwave 30-45 seconds
at high. If the dish lmats, it should not be used
tot microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then the dish
is microwave-satE. If you use a meat
thermometer while cooking, make sure it is
sate tot use in microwave
()VeilS.
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 nyhm or nyhm filaments should be avoided, as they may also ignite.
Some styrofoam trays
(like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin strip of metal embedded
in the 1)ottom. ¼"hen microwaved, the metal
can 1)urn the floor of the oven or ignite a paper
towel. Do not use the microwave
to dry newspapers. Not all plastic wrap
is suitable tot use in
II/ic rowave ()veils.
Check the package Jot proper use.
Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover dishes in order to retain
moisture and prevent spattering. Be sure to vent plastic wrap so
steam can escape.
Cookware may 1)ecome hot 1)ecause of heat
transiErred tiom the heated tood. Pot holders
may be needed to handle the cookware.
"Boilable" cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic 1)ags should be slit, pierced or vented as directed 1)ypackage. If they are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking, possil)ly resulting in il/jury. Also, plastic storage containers should be at least partially uncovered because they torm a tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away ti'om
hands and lace.

Take care to prevent the starting and spreading of
accidental cooking fires while the vent Jan is in use.
Clean the underside of the microwave often.
Do not allow grease to build up on the
microwave or the Jan filters.
Plastic cookware_Plastic cookware designed lbr
microwave cooking is very useflfl, but should be used careflflly. Even microwave-satE plastic may not be as tolerant of overcooking conditions as are glass or ceramic materials and may soften or char if subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer

In the event of a grease fire on the surfi_ce units

Use care when cleaning the vent Jan filters.

¥_lriable power levels add
flexibili W to microwave cooking. The power levels
on the microwave ()_n can be compared to the
snrtace units on a range. High (I)ower level 10) or flfll power is the thstest
way to cook and gives you
100% power: Each power level gives you microwave energy a certain percent of
the time. Power lmel 7 is microwave energy 70% of
the time. Power level 3 is energy 30% of the time.
A high setting (10) will
cook thsmr l)ut tood mW need more tiequent stirring, rotating or turning oven Most cooking will be done on High (I)ower level
10). A lower setting will cook more evenly, and need less stirring or rotating of the tood.
Some toods may have better flav(m texture or
appearance if one of the lower settings is used. Use a lower power lexel when cooking foods that haxe a tendency to 1)oil oxer, such as scalloped potatoes.
Rest periods (when the microwave energy cyvles off) give time lot the tood
to "'equalize" or transtcr heat to the inside of the

DefrostingTips
Foods fi'ozen in paper or
plastic can be defi'osted in the packag>. Tightly closed packages should be slit, pierced or vented AFTER ti)od has partially deflosted. Plastic stoFag_ containers should be at least partially

Family-size,prepackaged fi'ozen dinners can be
defiosted and microwaved. If the fi)od is in a fi)il
container, minster it to a microwave-sate dish.
Foods that spoil easily, such as milk, eggs, fish, stutfings, poult_y and pork, should
not be allowed to sit out tot more than one hour
after defi'osting. Room

growth of harmfifl bacteria.
For more even defi'osting of larg>r toods, such as beef,
lamb and veal roasts, use
Auto Defiost.
Be sure large meats are completely defiosted befiwe cooking.
When deflosted, tood should be cool but sottened
in all areas. If still slightly icy, return to the microwave ve_y brietly, or let it stand a t>w
