THESE INSTR UCTYONS
Make sure all cookware
used in your microwave
oven is suitable Jbr
microwaving. Most glass
casseroles, cooking dishes,
measuring cups, custard
cups, pottery or china
dinnerware which does not
have metallic trim or glaze
with a metallic sheen can
be used. Some cookware
is labeled "suitable tot
microwaving."
How to test for a
microwave-safe dish,
• If you are not sure if a
dish is microwave-satE,
use this test: Place in the
oven both the dish you
are testing and a glass
measuring cup filled with
1 cup of water--set the
measuring cup either in
or next to the dish.
Microwave 30-45 seconds
at high. If the dish lmats,
it should not be used
tot microwaving.
SAVE
If the dish remains cool
and only the water in the
cup heats, then the dish
is microwave-satE.
If you use a meat
thermometer while
cooking, make sure it is
sate tot use in microwave
()VeilS.
• Do not use recycled
paper products. Recycled
paper towels, napkins
and waxed paper may
contain metal flecks
which could cause arcing
or ignite. Paper products
containing nyhm or
nyhm filaments should
be avoided, as they may
also ignite.
• Some styrofoam trays
(like those that meat is
packaged on) have a thin
strip of metal embedded
in the 1)ottom. ¼"hen
microwaved, the metal
can 1)urn the floor of the
oven or ignite a paper
towel.
Do not use the microwave
to dry newspapers.
Not all plastic wrap
is suitable tot use in
II/ic rowave ()veils.
Check the package
Jot proper use.
• Paper towels, waxed
paper and plastic wrap
can be used to cover
dishes in order to retain
moisture and prevent
spattering. Be sure to
vent plastic wrap so
steam can escape.
• Cookware may 1)ecome
hot 1)ecause of heat
transiErred tiom the
heated tood. Pot holders
may be needed to handle
the cookware.
• "Boilable" cooking
pouches and tightly
closed plastic 1)ags should
be slit, pierced or vented
as directed 1)y package.
If they are not, plastic
could burst during or
immediately after
cooking, possil)ly resulting
in il/jury. Also, plastic
storage containers should
be at least partially
uncovered because they
torm a tight seal. When
cooking with containers
tightly covered with
plastic wrap, remove
covering carefully and
direct steam away ti'om
hands and lace.

Plastic cookware_Plastic
cookware designed lbr
microwave cooking is
very useflfl, but should
be used careflflly. Even
microwave-satE plastic
may not be as tolerant of
overcooking conditions
as are glass or ceramic
materials and may soften
or char if subjected
to short periods of
overcooking. In longer
exposnres to ()vet =
cooking, the fi)od and
cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
IUse microwave-sale
plastcs only and use
them in strict compliance
with the cookware
I1/anilJilCt/lrer_s
recom n/endations.
2Do not microwave empW
containers.
Do not permit children
to use plastic cookware
without complete
supervision.
The tim will operate
automatically under
certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan tcature).
Take care to prevent the
starting and spreading of
accidental cooking fires
while the vent Jan is in use.
• Clean the underside of
the microwave often.
Do not allow grease
to build up on the
microwave or the
Jan filters.
• In the event of a grease
fire on the surfi_ce units
below the microwave
oven, smother a flaming
pan on the surface unit
by covering the pan
completely with a lid, a
cookie sheet or a fiat tl, t)'.
• Use care when cleaning
the vent Jan filters.
Corrosive cleaning
agents, such as lye-based
oven cleaners, may
damage the filters.
• When preparing
flaming foods under
the microwave, turn
the Jim on.
• Never leave surlhce units
beneath your microwave
oven unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovcrs
cause smoking and greasy
spillovcrs that may ignite
and spread if the
microwave vent Jim is
operating. To minimize
automatic Jan operation,
use adequate sized
cookware and use high
heat on snriace units
only when necessary.
Most pacemakers are

DefrostingTips
Foods fi'ozen in paper or
plastic can be defi'osted in
the packag>. Tightly closed
packages should be slit,
pierced or vented AFTER
ti)od has partially deflosted.
Plastic stoFag_ containers
should be at least partially

Family-size, prepackaged
fi'ozen dinners can be
defiosted and microwaved.
If the fi)od is in a fi)il
container, minster it to a
microwave-sate dish.
• Foods that spoil easily, such
as milk, eggs, fish, stutfings,
poult_y and pork, should
not be allowed to sit out
tot more than one hour
after defi'osting. Room
tempeFatm'e promotes the
growth of harmfifl bacteria.
For more even defi'osting
of larg>r toods, such as beef,
lamb and veal roasts, use
Auto Defiost.
Be sure large meats are
completely defiosted befiwe
