Magic Chef MCD990STG owner manual Save These Instructions, Limited Use

Limited Use

·Aluminum foil — Use narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too much foil can damage your oven, so be careful.

·Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware — Use these if they are labeled “Microwave Safe”. If they are not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.

·Plastic — Use only if labeled “Microwave Safe”. Other plastics can melt.

·Straw, wicker, and wood — Use only for short-term heating, such as warming dinner rolls for a few seconds; baskets and bowls may be flammable.

Not Recommended

·Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and cause damage and injury.

·Paper bags — These are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for

microwave use.

·Styrofoam plates and cups — These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food. ·Plastic storage and food containers — Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in

the microwave.

·Metal utensils — These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.

Note: Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which becomes very hot should not be used.
