It is normal for the inside of the oven door to look wavy after the oven has been running for a while.

7.Do not heat unopened food containers in the oven. Pressure build-up can cause the container to burst, resulting in injury.

8.Do not use nowspaper or other printed paper in the oven. Fire could result.

Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper, gourds or clothes in the oven. Fire could result.

9.Only use thermometers approved for microwave oven cooking.

11.Pierce the skin of potatoes, whole squash, apples or any fruit or vegetable which has a skin covering before cooking.

Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could result. At the end of the recommended cooking time they should be slightly firm. Wrap in foil and set aside for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.

12.Never use your microwave oven to cook eggs in the shell or to cook or reheat a whole egg. Steam build-up may cause them to burst and burn you, and possibly damage the oven. Slice hard boiled eggs before heating. In rare instances, poached eggs have ben known to explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a standing time of one minute before cutting into them.

13.Do not pop popcorn, except in a microwave approved popcorn popper or commercial package designed especially for microwave ovens.

Never try to pop popcorn in a paper bag. Overcooking may result in smoke and fire.

14.Liquids heated in certain containers (especially cylindrical-shaped containers) may become overheated. The liquid may splash out with a loud noise during or after heating or when adding ingredients (coffee, etc.) resulting in harm to the oven and possible personal injury. For best results stir any liquid several times before heating or reheating.

15.Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing on it when the door is open. Injury could result.

16.Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode resulting in damage to the oven or possible personal injury.

17.Do not use the oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to maintain the high temperature required for safe sterilization.
