About Children And The Microwave - Furrion FMCM17-BL Manual De Instrucciones

Before Using
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.
The following coverings are ideal:
● Paper towels are good for covering foods
for reheating and absorbing fat while
cooking bacon.
● Wax paper can be used for cooking and
reheating.
● Plastic wrap that is specially marked for
microwave use can be used for cooking
and reheating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap
to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.
● Lids that are microwave-safe are a good
choice because heat is kept near the food
to hasten cooking.
● Oven cooking bags are good for large
meats or foods that need tenderizing. DO
NOT use metal twist ties. Remember to
slit bag so steam can escape.
How to use aluminum foil in your microwave
oven:
● Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed
smoothly on the food can be used to
shield areas that are either defrosting or
cooking too quickly.
● Foil should not come closer than one inch
to any surface of the oven.
ACCESSORIES: There are many microwave
accessories available for purchase. Evaluate
carefully before you purchase so that
they meet your needs. A microwave-safe
thermometer will assist you in determining
correct doneness and assure you that foods
have been cooked to safe temperatures.
Furrion is not responsible for any damage to
the oven when accessories are used.
About Children and The
Microwave
● Children below the age of 7 should use
the microwave oven 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 children must be able to reach the
oven comfortably; if not, he/she should
stand on a sturdy stool.
● At no time should anyone be allowed to
lean or swing on the oven door.
● Children should be taught all safety
precautions; use potholders, remove
coverings carefully and 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 microwave
oven is not a toy.
