COMMENTS
Some frozen foods are packaged in these pans. Can be
purchased in grocery stores.

-inch (2cm) high. Place foil tray in center of oven. Leave at
least 1-inch (2.5cm) space between foil tray and oven walls.
Heat only 1 foil tray in the oven at a time. For containers
more than
3/4-inch (2cm) deep, remove food and place in a
similar size microwave-safe container.
Some frozen dinners have microwave-safe plastic trays.

Small strips of foil can be molded around thin parts of meat
or poultry to prevent overcooking. Arcing can occur if foil is

not heat resistant and may break.
TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE OVEN USE: Fill a 8 oz (250mL) glass measure
with water and place it in the microwave oven along with the container to be tested; heat one minute at
HIGH. If the container is microwave oven-safe, it should remain comfortably cool and the water should
be hot. If the container is hot, it has absorbed some microwave energy and should not be used.
