TESTING YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
TESTING YOUR DINNERWARE
OR COOKWARE
Test dinnerware or cookware
before using.
To test a dish, put it into the oven with 1 cup
(250 mL) of water beside it. Cook at 100% cook
power for one minute. If the dish gets hot and
water stays cool, do not use it. Some dishes
(melamine, some ceramic dinnerware, etc.)
absorb microwave energy, and may become too hot
to handle or may slow cooking times. Cooking in
metal containers
not designed for microwave use
could damage the oven, as could containers with
hidden metal (twist-ties, foil lining, staples, metallic
glaze or trim).
OPERATING TIPS
,, Never lean on the door or allow a child to swing
,, Never cook or reheat a whole egg inside the
on it when the door is open.
,, Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not heat
containers, but the heat from the food can make
the container hot.
,, Do not use newspaper or other printed paper in
the oven.
,, Do not dry flowers, fruit, herbs, wood, paper,
gourds, or clothes in the oven.
,, Do not start a microwave oven when it is empty.
Product life may be shortened. If you practice
programming the oven, put a container of water in
the oven. It is normal for the oven door to look
wavy after the oven has been running for a while.
,, Do not try to melt paraffin wax in the oven.
Paraffin wax will not melt in a microwave oven
because it allows microwaves to pass through it.
,, Do not operate the microwave oven unless the
glass turntable is securely in place and can rotate
freely. The turntable can rotate in either direction.
Make sure the turntable is correct-side
up in the
oven. Handle your turntable
with care when
removing it from the oven to avoid possibly
breaking it. If your turntable cracks or breaks,
contact your dealer for a replacement.
* When you use a browning dish, the browning
dish bottom must be at least _0 in. (5 mm) above
the turntable.
Follow the directions supplied with
the browning dish.
shell. Steam buildup in whole eggs may cause
them to burst, and possibly damage the oven.
Slice hard-boiled eggs before heating. In rare
cases, poached eggs have been known to
explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a stand-
ing time of one minute before cutting into them.
* For best results, stir any liquid several times
during heating or reheating. Liquids heated in
certain containers (especially containers shaped
like cylinders) may become overheated. The liquid
may splash out with a loud noise during or after
heating or when adding ingredients (coffee
granules, tea bags, etc.). This can damage the oven.
,, Microwaves may not reach the center of a roast.
The heat spreads to the center from the outer,
cooked areas just as in regular oven cooking. This
is one of the reasons for letting some foods (for
example, roasts or baked potatoes) stand for a
while after cooking, or for stirring some foods
during the cooking time.
,, Do not deep fry in the oven. Microwavable
utensils are not suitable and it is difficult to
maintain appropriate
deep-frying temperatures.
,, Do not overcook
potatoes.
At the end of the
recommended
cooking time, potatoes should be
slightly firm because they will continue cooking
during standing time. After microwaving,
let
potatoes
stand for 5 minutes. They will finish
cooking while standing.
