it should not be used for microwaving.
If the dish remains cool and only the
water in the cup heats, then the dish

of heat transferred
from the heated

• Do not use recycled paper products.
Recycled paper towels, napkins and
waxed paper can contain metal flecks
which may cause arcing or ignite. Paper
products
containing
nylon or nylon
filaments
should be avoided,as
they
may also ignite.
• Use foil only as directed
in this guide.
TV dinners
may be microwaved
in foil
trays less than 3/4" high; remove the
top foil cover and return the tray to the
box. When using foil in the oven, kee I)
the foil at least 1" awav from the sides
of the oxen.
• Do not use the oxen

to dry newspapers.

• If you use a meat thermometer
while
cooking, make sure it is safe for use in
nlicrowax

e ox ens.

• Some surofoam
trays (like those that
meat is packaged on) have a thin strip of
metal embedded
in the bottom. When
microwaved,
the metal can burn the
floor of the oven or ignite a paper towel.

Paper towels, waxed paper and plastic
wrap can be used to cover dishes in
order to retain moisture
and prevent
spattering.
Be snre to vent plastic wrap
so steam can escape.
Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in
microwme
oxens. Check the package
for proper use.
"Boilable" cooking pouches
and
tightly closed plastic bag:s should be
slit, pierced or venmd as directed
by
package. If they are not, plastic could
burst during or immediamly
after
cooking, possibly resuhing
in inju U.
Also, plastic storage containers
should
be at least partially uncovered
because
they form a fight seal. When cooking
with containers
tightly covered with
plastic wrap, remove covering careflflly
and direct steam away flom hands
and face.
• Plastic cookware--Plastic

cookware

designed
for microwave
cooking is very
usefifl, but should be used carefiflly.
Even microwave-safe
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
