IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■
To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
– Do not overcook food. Carefully attend the
microwave oven when paper, plastic, or other
combustible materials are placed inside the oven
to facilitate cooking.
– Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags
before placing bag in oven.
– If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven
door closed, turn oven off, and disconnect the
power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
– Do not use the cavity for storage purposes. Do not
leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in
the cavity when not in use.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
■
Liquids, such as water, coffee, or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing
to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the
container 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 SPOON OR
OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
–
Do not overheat the liquid.
–
Stir the liquid both before and halfway through
heating it.
–
Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow
necks.
–
After heating, allow the container to stand in the
microwave oven for a short time before removing
the container.
–
Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other
utensil into the container.
