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
THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
– Do not overheat the liquid.
– Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.
– Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
– After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave

oven for a short time before removing the container.

– Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into

the container.

Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be

■

inserted in the microwave oven as they may create a fire or risk
of electric shock.

■

face and the door or allow residue to accumulate on
sealing surfaces. Wipe the sealing area frequently
with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use
abrasive powders or pads.

3. When opened, the door must not be subjected to
strain, for example, a child hanging on an opened
door or any load could cause the oven to fall

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

* Q : Can the oven be used with the glass tray or

roller guide removed?

* A : No. Both the glass tray and roller guide must

always be used in the oven before cooking.

* Q : Can I open the door when the oven is

operating?

* A : The door can be opened anytime during the

cooking operation. Then microwave energy will
be instantly switched off and the time setting
will maintain until the door is closed.

* Q : Why do I have moisture in my microwave

oven after cooking?

* A : The moisture on the side of your microwave

oven is normal. It is caused by steam from
cooking food hitting the cool oven surface.

* Q : Does microwave energy pass through the

viewing screen in the door?

* A : No. The metal screen bounces back the energy

to the oven cavity. The holes are made to allow
light to pass through. They do not let
microwave energy pass through.

* Q : Why do eggs sometimes pop?

* A : When baking or poaching eggs, the yolk may

pop due to steam build-up inside the yolk
membrane. To prevent this, simply pierce the
yolk with a toothpick before cooking. Never
cook eggs without piercing their shells.

* Q : Why is standing time recommended after

the cooking operation has been completed?

* A : Standing time is very important.

With microwave cooking, the heat is in the
food, not in the oven. Many foods build up
enough internal heat to allow the cooking
process to continue, even after the food is
removed from the oven. Standing time for joints
of meat, large vegetables and cakes is to allow
the inside to cook completely, without
overcooking the outside.

* Q : What does “standing time” mean?

* A : “Standing time” means that food should be

removed from the oven and covered for
additional time to allow it to finish cooking. This
frees the oven for other cooking.

* Q : Why does my oven not always cook as fast

as the microwave cooking guide says?

* A : Check your cooking guide again, to make sure

you’ve followed directions exactly ; and to see
what might cause variations in cooking time.
Cooking guide times and heat settings are
suggestions, to help prevent over-cooking... the
most common problem in getting used to a
microwave oven.
Variations in the size, shape and weights and
dimensions could require longer cooking time.
Use your own judgement along with the
cooking guide suggestions to check whether
the food has been properly cooked just as you
would do with a conventional cooker.

* Q : Will the microwave oven be damaged if it

operates while empty?

* A : Yes. Never run it empty.

* Q : Can I operate my microwave oven without

the turntable or turn the turntable over to
hold a large dish?

* A : No. If you remove or turn over the turntable,

you will get poor cooking results. Dishes used
in your oven must fit on the turntable.

* Q : Is it normal for the turntable to turn in either

direction?

* A : Yes. The turntable rotates clockwise or

counterclockwise, depending on the rotation of
the motor when the cooking cycle begins.

* Q : Can I pop popcorn in my microwave oven?

How do I get the best results?

* A : Yes. Pop packaged microwave popcorn

following manufacture’s guidelines. Do not use
regular paper bags. Use the “listening test” by
stopping the oven as soon as the popping
slows to a “pop” every 1 or 2 seconds. Do not
repop unpopped kernels. Do not pop popcorn
in glass cookware.

USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELY

General Use

Do not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety

interlocks.
Do not place any object between the oven front frame
and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing
surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry.

Never use abrasive powders or pads.

Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such
as a child hanging on an open door.
This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in
injury to you and damage to the oven.

Food

Never use your microwave oven for home canning.
The oven is not designed for proper home canning.
Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous
to consume.
Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is
better to undercook rather than overcook foods.
Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for
more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be
done.

Heat small quantities of food or foods with low
moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or

catch on fire.

Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up
and eggs can explode.
Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are
examples of food with non-porous skins.

These must be pierced before cooking to prevent
bursting.
Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.

Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds
after the oven has been switched off to allow the

Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing

surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges

are loose or broken.
Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the

oven.

Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other
materials in the oven. They may catch on fire.
Do not use recycled paper products as they may

contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires.
Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects.
This can damage the oven.

temperature to even out, stir during heating, if
necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent
eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put
a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir
before, during and after heating.
Do not leave the oven unattended while popping corn.
Do not pop corn in a paper bag unless it is the
commercially prepared Microwave Popcorn product.
The kernels can overheat and ignite a brown paper

bag.

Do not put packaged Microwave Popcorn bags directly
on the oven tray. Place the package on a microwave
safe glass or ceramic plate to avoid overheating and

cracking the oven tray.
Do not exceed the Microwave Popcorn manufacturers
suggested popping time.

Longer popping does not yield more popcorn but it can
result in buring the popcorn or risk of fire. Remember,
the Popcorn bag and tray can be too hot to handle.
Remove with caution and use pot holders.

ARCING

If you see arcing, touch the

Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.
Arcing is caused by:

• Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

• Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like

antennas).

STOP

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

• Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces

being used in the microwave.
