Operating Safety Precautions
Continued
Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed glass jars may explode resuking in damage to the oven or possible personal injury.
Do not use the oven to sterilize objects (baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to maintain the high temperature required for safe sterilization.
Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to maintain appropriate deep frying temperatures.
Do not use the oven for storage. Do not leave anything in the oven when not in use. Fire may result if someone accidentally starts the oven.
Do not let food or container touch the top or sides of the oven.
Do not heat, store or use flammable materials in or near the oven. Fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not overcook potatoes. Fire could result. At the end of the recommended cooking time potatoes should be slightly firm because they will continue cooking during standing time. After microwaving, wrap potatoes in foil and set aside for 5 minutes. They will finish cooking while standing.
