Getting to Know Your Microwave Oven

Testing your dinnerware or cookware

Test dinnerware or cookware before using.

To test a dish for safe use, put it into the oven with a cup of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook power for one minute. If the dish gets

hot and water stays cool, do not use it.

Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.) absorb microwave energy,

becoming too hot to handle and slowing cooking times. Cooking in metal containers not designed for microwave use could dam-

age the oven, as could containers with hidden

metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic glaze or trim).

Operating safety precautions

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 cases, poached

eggs have been known to explode. Cover

poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.

For best results, stir any liquid several

 

times before heating or reheating. Liquids

 

heated in certain containers (especially

 

containers shaped like cylinders) may

 

become overheated. The liquid may splash

 

out with a loud noise during or after heating

 

or when adding ingredients (coffee granules,

 

tea bags, etc.). This can harm the oven and

 

possibly injure someone.

Stir before heating

 

Never lean on the door or allow a child to

 

swing on it when the door is open. Injury

 

could result.
