Microwave Oven Safety

Operating safety precautions

wWARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, burns, injury to persons, or damage when using the microwave oven, follow the precautions on pages 6-7.

Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause them to burst and burn you, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare instances, poached eggs have been known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of 1 minute before cutting into them.

Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open. Injury could result.

Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat containers, but the hot food does.

Stir before heating

For best results, stir any liquid several times before heating or reheating. Liquids heated in certain containers (especially cylindrical containers) may become over- heated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee granules, tea bags, etc.) resulting in harm to the oven and possible personal injury.

Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could result. At the end of the recommended cooking time, potatoes should be slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, wrap potatoes in foil and set aside for

5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
