NOT REMOVE THE SPLATTER SHIELD
inside the oven eaviD,.
24. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to
be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of
the liquid. Visible bubbling or boiling when the
container is renaoved from the microwave oven is
not ahvays present. THIS COULD RESULT IN
VERY HOT LIQI_ffDS SUDDENLY BOILING
OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
(1 Do not oxerheat the liquid.

29. Stay near the appliance while it is in use and check
cooking progress fi'equently.Leavingthe appliance
unattended may reslut in overcooked food and
possiblya fire inyour oven.
30. Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may tend
to boil over more rapidly than ibods containingless

SAVE THESE
31. Do not use a thermometer in food you are
microwavingunless the thennometer is &signed or
*_colmnendedfor use inthe microwaveoven.
32. Plasticcookware designedformicrowavecooking is
very useful, but should be used carefully. 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,hi longerexposures to
overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite.
For these reasons:l) Use microwave-safe plastics
only and use them in strict compliance with the
eookware manufacturer's recommendations. 2) Do
not subject empty cookware to micmwaving. 3) Do
not permit childrento use plastic cookware without
completesupervision.
33. Do not store anythig directly on top of the

to box. When using metal inmicrowave oven, keep
metal at least 1 inch away from the sides of the
oven.
35. Do not defrost frozen beverages in nan'ow necked
bottles.
36. Cookware may become hot because of heat
transfen'edfrom the heated food. Potholdersmay be
neededto handlethe cookware.
37. Do not try to melt paraffinwax in the oven.Paraffin
wax will not melt in a microwave oven because it
allowsmicrowaves topass through it.
38. Never use shaq>cdgedmensils inor near the oven.
39. Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful
when opening containers of hot food, including
popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To
prevent possible injnU direct steam away from
hands and face.

Note
Microwave ovens generate radio frequency energy
during operation and if not installed properly may
cause interference to radio and television reception.
You can detemline if this unit is causing interference
by turning it on and off while the interference
is
occurring. If interference occurs, it may be corrected
by one or more of the following measures:
iD.clean door and seal surfaces of the oven;
• reorient the television or radio receiving antemm;
• the oven with respect to the television or radio
receiver, and or
• Plug the oven into a different oulet so that it and the
television or radio receiver are on different circuits.
If the interference persists, you may want to consult
an experienced
radio/television
technician
for
additional infomlation.
Protection
Cooking appliancesinstalled underthe microwaveoven
may, under some heavy usage conditions, cause
temperatures high enough to overheat some internal
parts of the microwaveoven.
To prevent overheating from taking place, the exhaust
fan is designedto automaticallyturn on at a low speedif
cut or remove
feature
excessive temperatures occur. Should this happen, the
fan cannot be manually
turned off, but it will
automatically turn off when the internal parts have
cooled. The fan may" stay on lbr up to an hour after the
range and microwave oven controls have been aimed
off.
Tips
I_ Make sure all cookware used in your microwave
oven is suitable for microwaving. Most glass cooking
dishes, measuring cups, custard cups, pottery or china
dimlerware, which &es not have metallic trim or
glaze with metallic sheen, can be used.
I_ If you are not sure ifa dish is microwave-safe, use
this test: Place in the oven the dish you m'e testing and
a glass measuring cup filled with one cup of water.
Set the measuring cup either in or next to the dish.
Microwave 1 minnte at high. If the dish heats, it
should not be used for microwaving. If the dish
remains cool and only the water in the cup heats, then
the dish is microwave-safe.
• 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 egul escape.
