Important Safety Instructions
12. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other non-food
products. DO NOT clean this oven with any product that is labelled
as containing corrosive chemicals. The heating of corrosive
chemicals in this oven may cause microwave radiation leaks.
13. Do not use your oven for home canning or the heating of any closed
jar. Pressure will build up and the jar may explode. In addition, the
microwave oven cannot maintain the food at the correct canning
temperature. Improperly canned food may spoil and be dangerous
to consume.
14. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven.
15. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, whole squash and sausages are
examples of foods with nonporous skins. This type of food must be
pierced before cooking, to prevent bursting.
16. DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE
MICROWAVE OVEN. To check the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry, use a MICROWAVE THERMOMETER. Alternatively, a
conventional meat thermometer may be used after the food is
removed from the oven. If undercooked, return meat or poultry to
the oven and cook for a few more minutes at the recommended
power level. It is important to ensure that meat and poultry are
thoroughly cooked.
17. Extreme care should be taken when cooking popcorn in a
microwave oven. Cook for minimum time as recommended by
manufacturer. Use the directions suitable for the wattage of your
microwave oven. NEVER leave oven unattended when popping
popcorn.
18. When reheating baby bottles always remove the top and teat. Liquid
at the top of the bottle will be much hotter than at the bottom and
must be shaken thoroughly before checking the temperature.
19. The door seals and door seal areas should be cleaned with a damp
cloth.
