Testing your dinnerware or cookware
Test dinnerware or cookware beforeusing. To
test a dishfor safe use, put itinto the ovenwith a
cupof water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power
forone minute. If the dish gets hot, do not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic
dinnerware, etc.)absorb microwave energy,
becoming too hot to handle and slowing cooking
times.Cooking in metal containers notdesigned for
microwave usecould damage the oven, as could
containerswith hidden metal (twist-ties,foil lining,
staples, metallicglaze or trim).
Operating safety precautions
•Never lean on the door or allow a childto swing
on itwhen the door is open.
•Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat
containers, butthe heatfrom the food can make
the container hot.
•Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in
the oven.
•Do not dry flowers,fruit, herbs, wood, paper,
gourds, or clothes in the oven.
•Do not starta microwave oven when it isempty.
Product lifemay be shortened. Ifyou practice
programming the oven, put a container of water in
the oven. It isnormal forthe oven door to look
wavy after the oven has been running for a while.
•Do not try to melt paraffin wax inthe oven.
Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven
because itallows microwaves to pass through it.
•Do not operatethe microwave oven unless the
glass turntable is securely in place and can move
freely.The turntable can move in either direction.
Make sure the turntable is correct-side up in the
oven. Handle your turntable with care when
removing itfrom the oven to avoid possibly
breaking it. If yourturntable cracks or breaks,
contact your dealer for a replacement.
•When you use a browning dish, the browning
dish bottom must be at least 3/16 inch abovethe
turntable. Followthe diredions suppliedwith the
browning dish.
•Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the
shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause
them to burst,and possiblydamage the oven.
Slice hard-boiledeggs before heating. Inrare
cases, poached eggs have been known to
explode. Cover poached eggsand allow a
standing time of one minute before cutting into
them.
•For best results, stir any liquid several times
during heating or reheating. Liquidsheated in
certain containers (especiallycontainers shaped
like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid
may splash out with a loud noiseduring or after
heating or when adding ingredients (coffee
granules, tea bags,etc.). This can harmthe oven.
•Microwaves may not reachthe center of a roast.
The heatspreads to the center from the outer,
cooked areasjust as in regular oven cooking.This
is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for
example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a
while after cooking, or for stirring some foods
during the cooking time.
•Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable
utensils are not suitable and itis difficultto
maintain appropriate deep-frying temperatures.
•Do not overcook potatoes. Atthe end ofthe
recommended cooking time, potatoesshould be
slightly firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time. After microwaving, let
potatoes stand for 5 minutes. They willfinish
cooking whilestanding.
Electrical connection
I Ifyour electric power line or outlet voltage isless than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer.
Havea qualified electrician check your electrical
system.
