DISH CHECK
If you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and
microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. If the dish becomes very hot, do NOT use it for microwaving.
AUTOMATIC COOKING
Use the recommended container in the cooking chart in this operation manual,
cookbook and display.
ACCESSORIES
There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully
before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in
determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures when
using microwave-only cooking.
Electrolux is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
CAUTION
When using ROAST or during automatic cooking, some metal baking utensils may cause
arcing when they come in contact with the turntable, oven walls or accessory racks. Arcing is a discharge
of electricity that occurs when microwaves come in contact with metal.
If arcing occurs, place a heat resistant dish, such as a Pyrex pie plate or oven-glass plate, between the
pan and the turntable or rack. If arcing continues to occur, discontinue using that pan.
