9. IMPORTANT-COOKWARE NOT TO USE IN YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
Do not use metal pans or dishes with metal handles.
Do not use anything with metal trim.
Do not use paper covered wire twist-ties on plastic bags.
Do not use melamine dishes as they contain a material which will absorb microwave energy.
This may cause the dishes to crack or char and will slow down the cooking speed.
Do not use Centura Tableware. The glaze is not suitable for microwave use. Corelle Livingware
closed handle cups should not be used.
Do not cook in a container with a restricted opening, such as a pop bottle or salad oil bottle, as they may
explode if heated in a microwave oven.
Do not use conventional meat or candy thermometers.There are the thermometers available specifically for
microwave cooking. These may be used.
10. Microwave utensils should be used only in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
11. Do not attempt to deep-fry foods in this oven.
12. Please remember that a microwave oven only heats the liquid in a container rather than the container itself.
Therefore, even though the lid of a container is not hot to the touch when removed from the oven, please
remember that the food/liquid inside will be releasing the same amount of steam and/or spitting when the lid is
removed as in conventional cooking.
13. Always test the temperature of cooked food yourself especially if you are heating or cooking food/liquid for
babies. It is advisable never to consume food/liquid straight from the oven but allow it to stand for a few minutes
and stir food/liquid to distribute heat evenly.
14. Food containing a mixture of fat and water, e.g.stock,should stand for 30-60 seconds in the oven after it has
been turned off. This is to allow the mixture to settle and to prevent bubbling when a spoon is placed in the
food/liquid or a stock cube is added.
15. When preparing/cooking food/liquid and remember that there are certain foods, e.g. Christmas puddings, jam
and mincemeat, which heat up very quickly. When heating or cooking foods with a high fat or sugar content do
not use plastic containers.
16. Cooking utensil may become hot because of heat transferred from the heated food. This is especially true
if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensil. Potholders may be needed
to handle the utensil.
17.To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a)Do not overcook food. Carefully attend microwave oven if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are
placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
(b)Remove wire twist-ties from bags before placing bag in oven.
(c)If materials inside the oven should ignite, keep oven door closed, turn the oven off at the wall switch, or
shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
