IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(cont’d.)
(3) If materials inside the microwave should ignite, keep microwave door
closed, turn it off, and disconnect the power cord or turn off the power
fuse at the circuit breaker panel.
(4) Do not use the microwave cavity for storage purposes. Do not leave
paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.
9. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea, may overheat beyond the boiling
point without appearing to be boiling due to surface tension of the liquid.
Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the
microwave is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT
LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury:
(1) Do not overheat the liquid;
(2) Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating;
(3) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks;
(4) After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave a short
time before removing;
(5) Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the
container.
10. Do not heat oil or fat for deep frying in this microwave. It is difficult to
control the temperature of oil in the microwave.
11. Pierce foods with heavy skins, such as potatoes, before cooking.
12. The contents of feeding bottles and baby jars should be stirred or shaken
and the temperature should be checked before serving to avoid burns.
13. Cooking utensils may become hot from heat transferred from the heated
food. Pot holders may be needed to handle these utensils.
