•Some products such as whole eggs and sealed
containers--forexample, closed jars--will

explodeandshouldnotbe heated inthis
microwaveoven.Suchuse of themicrowave

.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 carefulto prevent scaldingwhen warming

formulaor breast mfr. The container may feel

cooler than the milk reallyis. Alwaystest the

milkbeforefeeding the baby.

•Don't defrost frozen beverages in narrow
neckedbottles (esp.ecial.ly carbonated beverages).

Even if the container is opened,pressure can build
up. This can cause the container to burst,possibly

resultingin injury.

•Use foilonly as directed in this guide. TV

dinners may be microwavedin foiltrays less than
3/4"high;remove the top foilcover and return the

tray to the box. Whenusing foilinthemicrowave

eve% keep thefoil (other than metalshelf) at

least1inchawayfromthe sides of the oven.

•Cookwaremay becomehot because
of heat transferredfromtheheated

food. Potholders maybe needed to

handle the cookware.

.Foods cooked _ lkl_ (such aspasta) may tend

toboil over more rapidlythan foods containing
less moisture. Shouldthis occur, refer to the Care

and Cl_ section(s) for 'instructions on how to
clean the inside of the oven.

.Plastic cookware--Plastiecookware designed

for microwave cookingis very useful,but should

be used carefully.Even microwave-safe plastic

may not be as tolerant of overcooldngrenditions
as are glassor ceramic materials and may

soften or char if subjected to short periods of
overcooking, h longer exposures to overcooking,

the food andcookware couldignite. For these

reasons: 1)Use microwave-safe plastics oily and

use them in strict compliancewith the cookware

manufacturer s recommendations. 2) Do not
subject empty cookware to microwaving.

3) Do not permitchildrento use plastic
cookware without complete supervision

IF YOU NEED SERVICE...

To obtain service, see the Consumer Services page in

the back of this guide.
We're proud of our service and want you to be

pleased. If for some reason you are not happy with the
service you receive, here are 3 steps to follow for
further help.

FIRST, contact the people who serviced your
appliance. Explain why you are not pleased. In most

roes, this will solve the problem.

MICROWAVING TIPS

• Make sure all cookware used in your microwave
oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass

casseroles, cooking dishes, measuring cups, custard

CKDS,ootterv 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."

• If you are not

sure if a dish is
microwave-safe,

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 1 minute at high. If the dish heats,
it should not be used for microwaving. If the dish

remains cool and o_y the water in the cup heats,
then the dish is microwave-safe.

NEXT, if you are still not pleased, write all the
details---including your phone number--to:

Manager, Consumer Relations
GE Appliances
Appliance Park

Louisville, KY 40225

FINALLY, if your problem is still not resolved, write:

Major Appliance Consumer

Action Panel

20 North Wacker Drive
Chicago, IL 60606

.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.

.Some microwaved foods require stirring, rotating

or rearranging. Check the Cooking Guide.

• Steam builds up pressure in foods which are

tightly covered by a skin or membrane. Pierce

potatoes, egg yolks and chicken livers to prevent
bursting.

If you use a meat thermometer whale cooking, makesure it is safe for use in microwave ovens.

VARIABLE POWER LEVELS (1-10)

Variable power levels add flexibility to your
microwave rooking. The power levels on your
microwave oven can be compared to the surface units
on a range. High (Power Level 10) or full power is the

fastest way to cook and gives you 100% power. Each
power level gives you microwave energy a certain
percent of the time. Power Level 7 is microwave

energy 70% of the time. Power Level 3 is energy
30% of the time.

A high setting (10) will cook faster but may need
additional attention such as frequent stirring, rotating

or turning over. Most of your cooking will be done
on High (Power Level 10). A lower setting will cook

more evenly and with less attention given to stirring
or rotating the food. Some foods may have better

flavor, texture or appearance if one of the lower
settings is used. You may wish to use a lower power

level when cooking foods that have a tendency to

boil over, such as scalloped potatoes.

Rest periods (when the microwave energy cycles off)
give time for the food to "equalize" or transfer heat

to the inside of the food. An example of this is shown
with Power Level 3--the defrost cycle. If microwave

energy did not cycle off, the outside of the food would
cook before the inside was defrosted.

Here are some examples of uses for various

power levels:

POWER LEVEL IBEST USES

High l0 I Fish, bacon, vegetables,

boiling liquids.

I

Meal-High 7 Gentle cooking of meat and

poultry; baking casseroles
and reheating. -

Medium 5 Slow cooking and tenderizing

such as stews and less tender
cuts of meat.

Low 3 Defrost!ng without cooking;

simmering; delicate sauces.

Warm 1 Keeping food warm without

overcooking; softening butter.

AUTOMATIC FAN FEATURE

This microwave oven has an automatic fan feature to
protect it from too much heat rising from the cooktop

or range beneath it. It automatically turns on at a low
speed if it senses too much heat.

If you have turned the fan on you may find that you
cannot turn it off. This is because the automatic fan

has come onto protect the internal parts of the
microwave.

The fan will automatically turn off when the internal
parts are cool. It may stay on for 30 minutes or more

after the range and microwave controls have been
turned off.
