1. For personalsafetythe oven must be properiy
grounded.See groundinginstructionson Page3of
this book
2. Cooking utensilsmay become hot because of
heat transferred from the heatedfood. This is espe-
cially true if plastic wrap has been covering the top
and handles of the utensil. Pot holders may be
needed.
3. Sometimes,theovenshelfcanbecometoohotto

4~$Bo~lable’*~~~~i~g pouchesand tightly closed
p~asticbags+should be slit, pricked or vented as di-
rected in Cookbook. If they are not, plastic could
burst during or immediatelyafter cooking, possibly
resulting in injury, Also, plastic storage containers
should be at least partially uncovered becausethey
form atight seal. When cooking with containers
tightly covered with plastic wrap, remove covering
carefully and direct steam away from hands and
face.
5. Ronstdefrostfrozenbeveragesin narrow necked
bottles especiallycarbonated ones, Even if the con-
tainer is opened, pressure can build up. This can

inside the oven without inserting it in food or liquid
andturn on microwaveenergy,it cancreateelectrical
arcing in the oven,and damageovenwalls or shelf.
9. Remove wire twist4hm on paper and plastic
bags before placing in oven. Twist-ties sometimes

unlessin aspecial microwavepopcorn accessoryor
unless you use popcorn in apackage labeled for
microwave ovens. Because of the heat generated,
without theseprecautions,the container could catch
fire,
12. Use metai oniyas directedin cookbook.Metal
strips as used on meat roasts are helpful in cooking
food when usedasdirected. Metaltrays maybe used
for TV dinners. However, when using metal in the
microwave oven, keep metai at ieast l-inch away
fromsidesofmicrowaveoven.
13, Do not use any thermometerin food you are –
microwavingunlessthat thermometeris designedor
recommendedfor usein themicrowaveoven.
14. Do not store fiammabiematerialsin an oven.
Also, do not use flammable fluids in the vicinity of

youroven.
15. Do not use your microwaveoven to dry news-
papers.If overheated,they cancatch fire.
16, Piastic IJtensiis-Plastic utensils designed for
microwave cooking are very useful, but should be
usedcarefully.Evenmicrowaveplastic maynot be as
tolerant of overcooking conditions as are glass or
ceramic materials and may soften or char if sub-
jectedto short periods of overcooking, In longer ex-
posures to overcooking, the food and utensils may
even ignite. For these reasons: 1) Use microwave
plasticsonly and use them in strict compliance with
the utensil manufacturer’s recommendations.2) Do
not subjectempty utensilsto microwaving.3) Do not
permit children to use plastic utensils without com-
pletesupervision.
17. Don’toperatethe oven whileemptyin order to
prolong the life of the oven and save energy, If, by
accident,theovenshould run emptyaminuteor two,
noharmisdone.
18. Whencooking pork either convemtiormiiyor in
the microwave oven, follow our directions exactly
and aiways cook the meat to at least 17W. This
assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina
may bepresent in the meat,it will be killed and meat
will besafeto eat.
