Important Safety Information

SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING

ARCING

FOODS

If you see arcing, press the “STOP/CANCEL” button and correct the problem. Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven.

Arcing is caused by:

•Metal or foil touching the side of the oven.

•Foil not molded to food (upturned edges act like antennae).

•Metal, such as twist-ties, poultry pins, or gold-rimmed dishes, in the microwave.

•Recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.

•Only cook popcorn in your microwave oven using a special microwave popcorn accessory dish, unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.

•Some products- such as whole eggs (with shell), sealed containers, and closed jars - will explode and should not be heated in this microwave oven. Heating these products in the microwave oven could result in injury.

•Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

•Operating the microwave with no food inside may cause damage to the oven and could start a fire. It increases the heat around the magnetron and can shorten the life of the oven.

•Foods with unbroken outer “skin” such as potatoes, hot dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to escape before cooking.

SAFETY FACT: SUPERHEATED WATER

Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point; they can actually get superheated and not bubble at all. Superheated liquid can bubble up when it is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it. To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any liquid for more than 2 minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for 30 seconds before moving it or putting anything into it.

• Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly. Be careful to prevent scalding when warming formula. The container may feel cooler than the milk really is. Always test the milk before feeding the baby.

•Spontaneous boiling- Under certain circumstances, liquids may start to boil during or shortly after removal from the microwave oven. To prevent burns from splashing liquid, we recommend the following:

Before removing the container from the oven, allow the container to stand in the the oven for 30 to 40 seconds. Containers such as soft drink bottles, wine flasks and especially narrow-necked coffee cups. Even if the contain- er is opened, excessive steam can build up and cause it to burst or overflow.

•Don’t defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the container is opened, pressure can

build up.This can cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.

•Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent possible injury, direct steam away from hands and face.
