16. Some products such as whole eggs with or without shell, narrow neck bottles
and sealed containers — for example, closed glass jars — may explode and
should not be heated in this oven.
17. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
(a) Do not overcook food. Carefully attend appliance when paper, plastic, or
other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate
cooking.
(b) Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in
oven.
(c)
If material inside the oven ignites, keep oven door closed, turn oven
off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
(d)
DO NOT
use the cavity for storage purposes.
DO NOT leave paper
products, cooking utensils or food in the cavity when not in use.
18. Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be overheated beyond the
boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling when the con-
tainer is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS
COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER
WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A UTENSIL IS INSERTED
INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
(a)
STIR THE LIQUID BOTH BEFORE AND HALFWAY THROUGH
HEATING IT.
(b)
Do not heat water and oil, or fats together. The film of oil will trap
steam, and may cause a violent eruption.
(c) Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.
(d) After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a
short time before removing the container.
19.
DO NOT
cook directly on the turntable. It can crack, cause injury or damage
to the oven.
20. Oversized foods or oversized metal utensils should not be used in a
microwave/toaster oven as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
21. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can burn off the pad and
touch electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.
22. Do not use paper products when appliance is operated in the toaster mode.
23. Do not store any materials, other than manufacturer's recommended acces-
sories in this oven when not in use.
24. Do not cover racks or any other part of the oven with metal foil. This will
cause overheating of the oven.
