IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

FOODS

„

Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven unless in a

special microwave popcorn accessory

or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave

ovens.

„

Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will

build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst,

possibly resulting in injury.

„

Operating the microwave with no food inside for more

than a minute or two may cause damage to the oven

and could start a fire. It increases the heat around the

magnetron and can shorten the life of the oven.

„

Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as potatoes, hot

dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and

other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow

steam to escape

during cooking.

„

SUPERHEATED WATER

Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are able to

be overheated beyond the boiling point without

appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when

the container is removed from the microwave oven is

not always present. THIS COULD RESULT

IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN

THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER

UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

the microwave oven for a short time before removing

utensil into the container.

„

Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may

tend to boil more rapidly than foods containing less

moisture. Should this occur, refer to the

Care and cleaning of the microwave oven section

for instructions on how to clean the inside of

the oven.

„

Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with

the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly

cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly.

Be careful to prevent scalding when warming formula.

The container may feel cooler than the formula really is.

Always test the formula before feeding the baby.

„

Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked

bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the

container is opened, pressure can build up. This can

cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

„

Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when

opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn

bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent possible

injury, direct steam away from hands and face.

„

Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and

catch fire, causing damage to your oven.

least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to

at least an INTERNAL temperature

of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually

protects against foodborne illness.
