oDon’t defrost frozenbever- ages ~nnarrow necked bottles; especially carbonated ones. Even if the container is opened, pressurecan build up. This can causethe container to burst, resulting in injury.

@use metal only as directed in Cookbook. Metal strips as used on meat roasts are helpful when used as shown in Cookbook.

43Cookingutensilsmay becomehot because of heat transferred from the heated food. This is especially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top and handles of the utensil. Potholders may be needed to handle the utensil.

~Sometimes, the oven floor Carlbecome too hot to touch. Be careful touching the floor during and after cooking.

eDo not use any thermometer in food you are microwaving unless that thermometer is designed or recommended for use in the microwave oven.

eRemove the temperature probe from the oven when not using it to cook with. If you leave the probe inside the oven without inserting it in food or liquid, and turn on microwave energy, it can create electrical arcing in the oven, and damage oven walls.

4BPlastic Utensiis—Plastic utensils designed for microwave cooking are very useful, but should be used carefully. Even microwave plastic may not be as tolerant of overcooking condi- tions as are glass or ceramic materials and may soften or char if subjected to short periods of overcooking. In longer expo- sures to overcooking, the food and utensils could ignite. For these reasons: 1) Use micro- wave plastics only “anduse them” in strict compliance with the utensil manufacturer’s recommendations. 2) Do not subject empty utensils to micro- waving. 3) Do not permit children to use p!astic utensils without complete su~ervision.

eWhen cooking pork follow our directions exactly and always cook the meat to at least 170°. This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and meat will be safe to eat.

49 Boiling eggs (in am! out d she!!) is not recommended for

microwave cooking. Pressure can build up inside egg yolk and may cause it to burst, resulting in injury.

19 Foods with unbroken outer

“skin” such as potatoes, hot dogs or sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and other giblets, and eggs (see above) should be pierced to allow steam to escape during cooking.

e+ ‘T30ihbk” cooking pouches

and tightlyclosedplasticbags

should be slit, pierced or vented as directed in Cookbook. If they are not, plastic could burst dur- ing or immediately after cooking, possibly resulting in injury. Also, plastic storage containers should beat least partially uncovered becausethey form a tight seal. When cooking with containers tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering carefully and direct steam away from hands and face.

oUse of the UNJBLE KWWTM shelf accessory. (Seeyour Cook- book for proper use.)

—-Remove the shelf from oven when not in use.
