16MICROWAVE UTENSILSGlass, Ceramic and ChinaOvenproof glass or ceramic baking dishes are the most used microwave utensils.Many of these items are readily available in most homes: glass measures, custard cups, mixing bowls, covered casseroles, pie plates and round or square cake dishes. Ovenproof dinnerware is usually safe to use in the microwave.Do not heat or cook in glass jars or bottles.Do not use dishes with silver, gold, platinum or other metal trim. Arcing may occur and/or the dish maybreak.Do not use delicate or stemmed glassware. Although the glass may be transparent to microwave energy, heat from the food may cause the glassware to crack.PlasticsPlastic dishes, cups, mugs and bowls may be used in the oven for short periods of time. None of these should be used in the oven for prolonged periods because distortion and melting may occur. Check manufacturer’s recommendations concerning microwave safety.Plastic wrap can be used to cover dishes in most recipes if the dish is deep enough to avoid plastic wrap touching the food. Always vent the wrap by folding back one corner to allow excess steam to escape.Plastic cooking bags should be slit before cooking so excess steam can escape.Do not use wire twist ties to close the bag. Wire twist ties can cause arcing which can damage the oven.PaperPaper cups, wax paper, napkins, paper towels, and plates may be used for short cooking. Prolonged time in the oven can cause paper to burn. Do not use recycled paper products, such as brown paper bags. They contain impurities which may cause arcing and damage the oven.MetalMetal utensils should not be used in the oven. Metal reflects microwave energy so foods will not cook evenly.Metal can cause arcing and damage the oven.Dishes that do not absorb microwave energy are best for microwavecooking. Lock on the label to verify that particular cups, glasses,plates are indeed suitable, especially paper goods. If you are notsure, try this utensil test to check.• Put the empty utensil in the microwave oven.• Put one cup of water in a glass measure next to the empty utensil.• Heat on HI for 1 minute.• After 1 minute the water should be warm but the utensil should not. If the utensil is warm, it is not suitable for microwave cooking.UTENSIL TEST
17CARE OF YOUR MICROWAVE OVENTurn the oven off before cleaning.Keep the inside of the oven clean. When foodspatters or spilled liquids adhere to oven walls,wipe with a damp cloth. Mild detergent may beused if the oven gets very dirty. The use ofharsh detergent or abrasives is notrecommended.The outside oven surface should be cleanedwith soap and water, rinsed and dried with asoft cloth. To prevent damage to the operatingparts inside the oven, water should not beallowed to seep into the ventilation openings.If the Control Panel becomes wet, clean with asoft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh detergents orabrasives on Control Panel.If steam accumulates inside or around theoutside of the oven door, wipe with a soft cloth.This may occur when the microwave oven isoperated under high humidity conditions and inno way indicates malfunction of the unit.It is occasionally necessary to remove theglass tray for cleaning. Wash the tray inwarm sudsy water or in a dishwasher.1234567The roller guide and oven cavity floor shouldbe cleaned regularly to avoid excessive noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of the ovenwith mild detergent water or window cleanerand dry. The roller guide may be washed inmild sudsy water.ROLLER GUIDEGLASS TRAYGlass Tray Roller GuideThe ROLLER GUIDE and oven floor shouldbe cleaned frequently to prevent excessivenoise.The ROLLER GUIDE MUST ALWAYS beused for cooking together with the Glass Tray.DO NOT operate the oven without the GlassTray in place.DO NOT use any other Glass Tray with thisoven.If Glass Tray is hot, ALLOW TO COOL beforecleaning or placing it in water.DO NOT cook directly on the Glass Tray.121234
18USE YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN SAFELYGeneral UseDo not attempt to defeat or tamper with safety interlocks.Do not place any object between the oven front frame and the door or allow residue to build up on sealing surfaces. Wipe with a mild detergent, rinse and dry. Never use abrasive powders or pads.Do not subject the oven door to strain or weight such as a child hanging on an open door.This could cause the oven to fall forward resulting in injury to you and damage to the oven.Do not operate the oven if door seals or sealing surfaces are damaged; or if door is bent; or if hinges are loose or broken.Do not operate the oven empty. This will damage the oven.Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers or other materials in the oven. They may catch on fire.Do not use recycled paper products as they may contain impurities which may cause sparks or fires.Do not hit or strike the control panel with hard objects. This can damage the oven.FoodNever use your microwave oven for home canning. The oven is not designed for proper home canning. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.Always use the minimum recipe cooking time. It is better to undercook rather than overcook foods. Undercooked foods can be returned to the oven for more cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be done.Heat small quantities of food or foods with low moisture carefully. These can quickly dry out, burn or catch on fire.Do not heat eggs in the shell. Pressure may build up and eggs can explode.Potatoes, apples, egg yolks and sausages are examples of food with non-porous skins.These must be pierced before cooking to prevent bursting.Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.Always stir liquids before heating.
