IMPORTANT– Please Read and Follow

Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.

Accessories

There are many microwave accessories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before you purchase so that they meet your needs. A micro- wave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining correct doneness and assure you that foods have been cooked to safe temperatures. Vi- king is not responsible for any damage to the Built-in Microwave Hood when accessories are used.

Child Safety

Children below the age of 7 should use the Built-in Microwave

Hood with a supervising person very near to them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. The child must be able to reach the Built-in Microwave Hood comfortably.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the Built-in

Microwave Hood.

Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.

Don't assume that because a child has mastered one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the Built-in Microwave Hood is not a toy.

See page 28 for Child Lock feature.

Food Safety

Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking time. Cook for the shortest amount of time indicated and add more as needed. Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.

Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggestions: paper towels, wax paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spattering and help foods to cook evenly.

Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.

Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
