IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15
Moisture can collect in the hollow spaces on dishware and lids
with hollow handles or knobs. When the moisture evaporates,
pressure can build up and the item can explode. If the hollow recess
is sufficiently ventilated, the item can be used.
Do not use dishware with hollow knobs or handles.
Non-microwave-safe plastic dishes can suffer damage or damage
the microwave oven.
Do not use any containers or cutlery made from or containing metal,
aluminum foil, lead crystal glassware, temperature-sensitive plastics,
wooden utensils or cutlery, metal clips, or plastic or paper-covered
wire ties. Do not use bowls with milled rims, or plastic pots with the
foil lid only partially removed (see the requirements specified for
dishware in the section on microwave operation).
Fire hazard due to containers made of flammable materials.
Plastic disposable containers must meet the requirements specified
for dishware in the section on microwave operation.
Do not leave the microwave oven unattended when heating or
cooking food in disposable containers made of plastic, paper, or
other flammable materials.
Heat-retaining bags usually contain a thin layer of aluminum foil
that reflects microwave radiation. As a result, the paper surrounding
the aluminum foil can become so hot that it combusts.
Do not use heat-retaining packaging, such as bags for roasted
chicken, for warming food.
If the microwave oven is used without food or the food is loaded
incorrectly, the appliance can become damaged.
Do not use the microwave oven to preheat dishware or to dry herbs.
Risk of injury from the open door. You could bang into the open
door. Do not leave the door open unnecessarily.
