About Children and the Microwave

Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave
oven with a supervising person very near to them.
Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising
person should be in the same room.

The child must be able to reach the oven comfortably;
if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing
on the oven door.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they
may be extra hot.

Don’t assume that because a child has mastered
one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not
a toy. See page 25 for Safety Lock feature.

About Safety

* Check foods to see that they are cooked to the

United States Department of Agriculture’s
recommended temperatures:

– 160°F. for fresh pork, boneless white

poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes and
frozen prepared food.

– 165°F. for leftover, ready-to-heat

refrigerated, and deli and carry-out “fresh”
food.

– 170°F. white meat of poultry.
– 180°F. dark meat of poultry.

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in
a thick or dense area away from fat or bone. NEVER
leave the thermometer in food during cooking, unless
using a microwave thermometer when cooking with
only microwave power.

* Always use potholders to prevent burns when

handling utensils that are in contact with hot
food.
Enough heat from the food can transfer through
utensils to cause skin burns.

* Avoid steam burns by directing steam away

from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest
edge of a dish’s covering and carefully open
popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the
face.

* Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check

cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.

* NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or

other items.

* Select, store and handle food carefully to

preserve its high quality and minimize the spread
of foodborne bacteria.

* Keep wave guide cover clean. Food residue

can cause arcing and/or fires.

* Keep aluminum foil used for shielding at least 1

inch away from walls, ceiling and door.

* Use potholders and be careful when using

convection, mix or broil cooking as cabinet,
interior and door may be too hot to touch.

* Use care when removing items from the oven

so that the utensil, your clothes or accessories
do not touch the safety door latches.
