Plastic

When using plastic wrap as a cover, make sure that the dish is deep enough so the plastic wrap does not touch the food. As the food heats, it may melt the plastic wrap wherever the wrap touches the food.

Place plastic wrap loosely over the top of the dish and secure it by pressing the wrap to the sides of the dish.

Vent by turning back one corner of the plastic wrap. This will allow excess steam to escape.

Use plastic dishes, cups, semi-rigid freezer containers, and plastic bags only for short time cooking. Use these with care because the plastic may soften from the heat of the food.

Microwave-safe paper towels, waxed paper, paper napkins, and paper plates with no metallic trim or design can be used in your oven.

Refer to the manufacturer'slabel for use of any paper product in the microwave oven.

The Coming Company recommends that you

do not use Centura tableware and some Corelle TM closed-handle cups for microwave

Keep all aluminum foil at least 1 inch from the walls arid door of the oven.
