WARNING!

FOODS

■When microwaving, place all foods and containers on the glass microwave tray.

■Do not pop popcorn in your oven unless in a special microwave popcorn accessory or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave ovens.

■Do not boil eggs in this oven. Pressure will build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst, possibly resulting

in injury.

■Do not operate the oven without food inside. This may cause damage to the oven. 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 during cooking.

■SUPERHEATED WATER

Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able to be overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the container is removed from the microwave oven is not always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.

To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

—Do not overheat the liquid.

—Stir the liquid both before and halfway through heating it.

—Do not use straight-sided containers with narrow necks.

—After heating, allow the container to stand in the microwave oven for a short time before removing the container.

—Use extreme care when inserting a spoon or other utensil into the container.
