used, NOT conventional 
thermometers. 

 

Wax Paper

 

Yes. Use as a cover to 
prevent  splattering 
and to retain moisture. 

 

 

CONTAINER TEST

 

TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE OVEN USE: 

Fill a microwave safe cup with cool water and place it in  

the microwave oven along side the empty container to be tested; 

heat one (1) minute at P10 (HIGH)

. If the container is 

microwave oven safe (transparent to microwave energy), the empty container should remain comfortably cool and the 
water should be hot. If the container is hot, it has absorbed some microwave energy and should NOT be used. This test 
cannot be used for plastic containers.
