etting to Know Your Microwave Oven
Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not
heat containers, but heat from the food can
make the container hot.
NOTE:
Heat from the broil element will
cause container and oven parts to become
hot. Also, the Crisper Pan always
becomes very hot when used. Use oven
mitts when touching containers, oven parts,
and pan after broiling to prevent burns.
Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could
result. At the end of the recommended
cooking time, potatoes should be slightly
firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time. After microwaving,
wrap potatoes in foil and set aside for
5 minutes. They will finish cooking while
standing.
Do not start a microwave oven when it is
empty. Product life may be shortened.
If you practice programming the oven,
put a container of water in the oven.
It is normal for the oven door to look wavy
after the oven has been running for a while.
Do not use newspaper or other printed
paper in the oven. Fire could result.
Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood,
paper, gourds, or clothes in the oven.
Fire could result.
