IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING

ARCING

If you see arcing,

press the STOP/CLEAR pad 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 anten- nas).

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

•Recycled paper towels contain- ing small metal pieces being used in the microwave.

FOODS

•Do not cook popcorn in your microwave oven unless using a special microwave popcorn acces- sory dish or unless you use pop- corn labeled for use in microwave ovens.

•Some products such as whole eggs, 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 for more than a minute or two 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, chick- en livers and other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow steam to escape before cooking.
