To Test Cookware or Dinnerware for Microwave Use:
1.Place cookware or dinnerware in microwave oven with 1 cup (250 mL) of water beside it.
2.Cook at 100% cooking power for 1 minute.
Do not use cookware or dinnerware if it becomes hot and the water stays cool.
Always use oven mitts or pot holders when removing dishes from the microwave oven.
Aluminum foil and some metal can be used in the microwave oven. If not used properly, arcing (a blue flash of light) can occur and cause damage to the microwave oven.
OK for Use
Racks and bakeware supplied with the microwave oven (on some models), aluminum foil for shielding, and approved meat thermometers may be used with the following guidelines:
•Do not allow aluminum foil or metal to touch the inside cavity walls, ceiling or floor.
•Always use the turntable.
•Do not allow contact with another metal object during cooking.
Do Not Use
Metal cookware and bakeware, gold, silver, pewter, non- approved meat thermometers, skewers, twist ties, foil liners such as sandwich wrappers, staples and objects with gold or silver trim or a metallic glaze should not be used in the microwave oven.
