SPECIAL NOTES ABOUT MICROWAVING
(continued)
MICROWAVE-SAFE
COOKWARE (continued)
• Plastic cookware--Plastic cookware
designed for microwave cooking is
very useful, but should be used carefully.
Even microwave-safe plastic may not
be as tolerant of overcooking conditions
as are glass or ceramic materials and
may soften or char if subjected to
short periods of overcooking. In longer
exposures to overcooking, the food
and cookware could ignite.
Follow these guidelines:
1 Use microwave-safe plastics only
and use them in strict compliance
with the cookware manufacturer's
recommendations.
2 Do not microwave empty containers.
3 Do not permit children to use plastic
cookware without complete supervision.
THE VENT FAN
The fan will operate automatically under
certain conditions (see Automatic Fan
feature). Take care to prevent the starting
and spreading of accidental cooking fires
while the vent fan is in use.
• Clean the underside of the microwave
often. Do not allow grease to build up
on the microwave or the fan filters.
• In the event of a grease fire on the
surface units below the microwave oven,
smother a flaming pan on the surface
unit by covering the pan completely
with a lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray.
• Use care when cleaning the vent fan
filters. Corrosive cleaning agents,
such as lye-based oven cleaners,
may damage the filters.
• When preparing flaming foods under
the microwave, turn the vent fan on.
• Never leave surface units beneath your
microwave oven unattended at high heat
settings. Believers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may ignite and
spread if the microwave vent fan is
operating. To minimize automatic fan
operation, use adequate sized cookware
and use high heat on surface units only
when necessary.
