OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS TO UNDERSTAND (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)
Before enjoying foods, please check to see that they are cooked in accordance
with the United States Department of Agriculture’s recommended tempera-
tures prior to consuming.
Be careful and use care when removing items from the oven so that your
clothes or cooking accessories DO NOT touch the safety door latches.
DO NOT use the interior of the oven for storage of any kind.
Make sure to select, store and handle food with extreme caution to preserve
food quality and minimize the spread of foodborne bacteria.
Maintain a clean microwave and micro-guide cover. Food residue may cause
arcing and/or fires.
Check cooking progress frequently while cooking to eliminate any chance of
overcooking food.
When handling utensils or cookware that is in contact with hot food ALWAYS
use potholders to prevent burns. There is enough heat from the food that can
transfer through utensils or cookware to cause skin burns.
Direct steam AWAY from face and hands to avoid steam burns. Carefully open
popcorn or other oven cooking bags AWAY from your face. Lift the farthest
edge of cookware’s covering slowly and away from face.
If testing foods “readiness, “insert a meat thermometer into a thick or dense
area away from fat or bone. DO NOT leave the thermometer in the food during
cooking, EVER, unless it is approved by the manufacturer for use in a
microwave oven.
