IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement Act requires the Governor of California to

publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive

harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during

the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation

fan or hood.

MICROWAVE-SAFECOOKWARE

Make sure aft cookware used in your microwave oven is suitable for 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 for microwaving."

flled with 1 cup of wamr--set the measuring

cup either in or next m the dish. Microwa\e

35-45 seconds at high./f tim dish heats,

it should r_ot be used for microwaving.

/f the dish remains cool and only the wamr in

/f you use a meat thermomemr while

cooking, make sure it is safe for use in

I]IicI'owa\_ O\_IIS,

Do not use recycled paper products.

Recycled paper towels, napkins and waxed

paper can contain metal flecks which may

cm_se arcing or ignite. Paper products

containing nylon or nylon filaments should

be a\_ided, since they may also ignite.

Some Styrofoam trays (like those that meat

ARCING

If Vousee arcing, press the CLEAR/OFFpad and correct the problem.

Arcing is the microwave term forsparks in the

oven.Arcing is caused by:

Metal or foil touching tile side of tile oven.

Foil not molded to food (upturned edges

act like antennas).

Metal, such as twist-ties, pouluy' pins or

gold-rimmed dishes in tile microwax_.

Recycled paper towels containing small

metal pieces being used in file microwax>.

SUPERHEATEDWATER

Microwaved water and other liquids do not alwavs bubble when thev reach the boiling point.

Thev can actually get super heated and not bubble at all.

Super heated liquid will bubble up out of

the cup when it is moved or when something

like a spoon or ma bag is put into it.

To i)_exent this flom happening and causing

injm-y, do not heat any liquid for more than

9 minums per cup.

Alter heating, let tile cup stand in the

microwme for 30 seconds before moving

it or pntung anything into it.

Spontaneousboiling

Under certain special circumstances, liquids

mag start to bo# during or shortly after removal

from the microwave oven.

To prevent burns flora splashing liquid, we

iecommend tile following befoie iemoving

the container flom file oxen:

Allow file container to stand in file oxen

for 30 to 40 seconds after tile oxen has

shut off'.

Do not boil liquids in narrow-necked

containeis such as soft drink bottles, wine

flasks and especially naiTow-necked coffbe

cups. Even if the container is opened,

excessixe steam can build up and cause it

to burst or o\_rflow.

pans are centered in the oven as in uch as

Aluminum Foil

xAm can use aluminum fi)il to line the

broiler pan and broiler grid. Howe\'e_;

you must mold the fifil tightly to the grid

and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the fl)il will prevent fat

and meat juices fl'om draining into the

hot enough to catch on fire. If w_u

do not cut the slits, you are essentially

fl'ving, not broiling.

Donot usealuminumfoil on thebottom of
