1.  DO NOT operate the oven empty. The microwave energy will reflect continuously throughout 

the oven causing overheating and damage, if food or water is not present to absorb energy.

2.  DO NOT cover or seal the container tightly. Steam cannot escape from the container, and this 

may cause overcooking, personal injury or oven cavity damages.
