STANDARD MICROWAVE OVENS
USING THE MICROWAVE:
• Arrange food carefully. Place thickest foods toward outside of dish or plate.
• Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more time as needed.
Severely overcooked food can smoke or ignite.
• Cover foods while cooking. Covers prevent spattering and help foods cook evenly.
Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions of the cover to use: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap, lid, etc.
• Shield any thin areas of meat or poultry with small flat pieces of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking before dense,
thicker areas are cooked thoroughly.
• If possible, stir foods from outside to center once or twice during cooking.
• Turn foods over once during microwave cooking to speed cooking of foods such as chicken and hamburgers.
Large items such as roasts must be turned over at least once.
• When cooking a platter or dish foods, such as meatballs, that are divided into small portions,
rearrange the foods halfway through cooking, both from top to bottom and from right to left.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating that the desired temperatures have been reached.
CLEANING THE MICROWAVE:
INTERIOR:
• Cleaning is easy because little heat is transferred to the interior surfaces. Spill and spatters will not bake on.
• To clean the interior surfaces, including drawer sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
• For heavier spatters, use baking soda or a mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with hot water.
• Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners or scouring pads.
• Do not use chemical oven cleaners.
• The waveguide cover, located on the inside top of the microwave interior, is made from mica and requires special care.
Keep the waveguide cover clean to ensure good microwave performance.
