IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

Make sure all cookware used in your microwave oven is

suitable for 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 for microwaving.”

 If you are not sure if a dish is microwave-safe, use this test:

Place in the oven both the dish you are testing and a glass

PHDVXULQJFXSILOOHGZLWKFXSRIZDWHU³VHWWKHPHDVXULQJ

cup either in or next to the dish. Microwave

30–45 seconds 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.

 If you use a meat thermometer while cooking, make sure it is

safe for use in microwave ovens.

 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.

 Some foam 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.

 Do not use the microwave to dry newspapers.

 Not all plastic wrap is suitable for use in microwave ovens.

Check the package for 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 become hot because of heat transferred from

the heated food. Pot holders may be needed to handle the

cookware.

 “Boilable” cooking pouches and tightly closed plastic bags

should be slit, pierced or vented as directed by package. If they

are not, plastic could burst during or immediately after cooking,

possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers

should be at least partially uncovered because they form a

tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with

plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away

from hands and face.

 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

microwave oven, keep the foil at least 1" away from the sides

of the oven.

cooking 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. In longer

exposures to overcooking, the food and cookware could ignite.

Follow these guidelines:

1. Use microwave-safe plastics only and use them in

strict compliance with the cookware manufacturer’s

recommendations.

2. Do not microwave empty containers.

3. Do not permit children to use plastic cookware without

complete supervision.

WARNING!

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

THE VENT FAN

The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions (see

Automatic Fan feature). Take care to prevent the starting and

spreading of accidental cooking fires while the vent fan is in use.

 Clean the underside of the microwave often.

Do not allow grease to build up on the microwave or the fan

filters.

 In the event of a grease fire on the surface 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 flat tray.

 Use care when cleaning the vent fan filters. Corrosive cleaning

agents, such as lye-based oven cleaners, may damage the

filters.

 When preparing flaming foods under the microwave, turn the

fan on.

 Never leave surface units beneath your microwave oven

unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and

greasy spillovers that may ignite and spread if the microwave

vent fan is operating. To minimize automatic fan operation, use

adequate sized cookware and use high heat on surface units

only when necessary.
