• After heating baked goods with fillings, pierce
outside of food to release steam and avoid burns.
• Do not heat or cook in closed glass jars or air tight
containers.
• Do not preserve foods by canning using the
microwave oven, as harmful bacteria may not be
destroyed.
CHILDREN
• Children below the age of seven should use the
microwave oven with a supervising person very
near to them. Children ages 7–12 should have a
supervising person in the same room.
• The child must be able to reach the microwave oven
comfortably; if not, they should stand on a sturdy
stool.
• At no time should anyone be allowed to lean on the
oven drawer.
• Children should be taught all safety precautions: use
pot holders, remove coverings carefully, pay special
attention to packages that crisp food because they
may be extra hot.
• Do not assume that because a child has mastered
one cooking skill they can cook everything.
• Children need to learn that the microwave oven is
not a toy. Refer to page 9 for the control lock feature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOOD
• Check foods to see that they are cooked to USDA
recommended temperatures.

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

• To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a
thick or dense area away from fat or bone. Never
leave the thermometer in the food during cooking,
unless it is approved for microwave oven use.
• Puncture egg yolks before cooking to prevent
explosion. Do not cook eggs in shells or reheat
whole eggs.
• Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash, hot dogs
and sausages so that steam escapes.
• Use specially bagged popcorn for the microwave
oven. Listen while popping corn for the popping to

food to a small dish and heat carefully, stirring often.
