PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE
TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY
(a) Do not attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door
operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
(b) Do not place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow
soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.
(c) Do not operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the
oven door closes properly and that there is no damage to the:
1. Door (bent)
2. Hinges and latches (broken or loosened)
3. Door seals and sealing surfaces (d) The oven should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly
qualified service personnel.
Addendum
• If the apparatus is not maintained in a good state of cleanliness, its surface could be degraded and affect the lifespan of the apparatus, leading to a dangerous situation.
Before you call for service
If the oven fails to operate: a) Ensure that the oven is plugged in securely. If it is not, remove the plug from
the outlet, wait 10 seconds and plug it in again securely.
b) Check for a blown circuit fuse or a tripped main circuit breaker. If these seem
to be operating properly, test the outlet with another appliance. c) Ensure that the control panel is programmed correctly and the timer is set. d) Ensure that the door is securely closed, engaging the door safety lock system.
Otherwise, the microwave energy will not flow into the oven. IF NONE OF THE ABOVE RECTIFIES THE SITUATION, THEN CONTACT
A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN. DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THE MICROWAVE OVEN YOURSELF.

• Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave paper
products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when not in use.
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea can be overheated beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid. 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 A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

UTENSILS
This section lists which utensils can be used in the microwave, which ones have limited use for short periods, and which ones should not be used in the microwave.
Recommended
• Microwave browning dish – Use to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.
• Microwaveable plastic wrap – Use to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
• Paper towels and napkins – Use for short-term heating and covering. They absorb excess moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and could ignite.
• Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes – Use for heating or cooking.
• Paper plates and cups – Use for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.
• Wax paper – Use as a cover to prevent spattering.
• Thermometers – Use only those labeled “Microwave Safe” and follow all directions. Check the food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food once the food has been removed from the oven.
Limited Use
• Aluminum foil – Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.
• Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware – Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe.” If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.
• Plastic – Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe.” Other plastics can melt.
• Straw, wicker, and wood – Use only for short-term heating, such as warming dinner rolls for a few seconds; baskets and bowls may be flammable.
Not Recommended
• Glass jars and bottles – Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.
• Paper bags – These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave use.
• Styrofoam plates and cups – These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
• Plastic storage and food containers – Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the microwave.
• Metal utensils – These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.
Note
Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the
empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish that becomes very hot should not be used.

COOKING TECHNIQUES
Your microwave makes cooking easier than conventional cooking, provided you keep these considerations in mind:
Stirring Stir foods such as casseroles and vegetables while cooking to distribute heat evenly. Food at the outside of the dish absorbs more energy and heats more quickly, so stir from the outside to the center. The oven will turn off when you open the door to stir your food.
Arrangement Arrange unevenly shaped foods, such as chicken pieces or chops, with the thicker, meatier parts toward the outside of the turntable where they receive more microwave energy. To prevent overcooking, place delicate areas, such as asparagus tips, toward the center of the turntable.
Shielding Shield food with narrow strips of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Areas that need shielding include poultry wing-tips, the ends of poultry legs, and corners of square baking dishes. Use only small amounts of aluminum foil. Larger amounts can damage your oven.
Turning Turn foods over midway through cooking to expose all parts to microwave energy. This is especially important with large foods such as roasts.
Standing Foods cooked in the microwave build up internal heat and continue to cook for a few minutes after heating stops. Let foods stand to complete cooking, especially foods such as cakes and whole vegetables. Roasts need this time to complete cooking in the center without overcooking the outer areas. All liquids, such as soup or hot chocolate, should be shaken or stirred when cooking is complete. Let liquids stand a moment before serving. When heating baby food, stir well at removal and test the temperature before serving.
Adding moisture Microwave energy is attracted to water molecules. Food that is uneven in moisture content should be covered or allowed to stand so that the heat disperses evenly. Add a small amount of water to dry food to help it cook.
