SAFETY
FACT
SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water,
coffee or tea, are able to
be overheated beyond
the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling.
Visible bubbling or boiling

removed from the
microwave oven is not
always present. THIS
COULD RESULT IN VERY

CONTAINER IS DISTURBED
OR A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED
INTO THELIQUID.
To red uce the risk o/il+j _yr
to persons:
-- Do not overheat the
liquid.
-- Stir the liquid l)oth

Defrosting Tips
• Foods Dozen in t)al)er or
t)lasti( (all t)e (le/i'oste(t
in tlF(' t)a(kage. Tightly
(losed packages should
be slit, t)ier(ed or _('med
AFTER fi)()(t has partially
(tet_:osted. Plastic storage
containers should t)e at
least partially mlco_ere(t.
• Family-size, 1)ret)ackaged
/i'ozen dimmers can be
delrosted and micro-
wa_e(I. If the tood is in a
/oil container, trans/br it
to a microwave-sale dish.
• Foods that spoil easily.
such as milk, eggs, fish,
smltings, l)oultw and
t)ork, should not t)e
allowed to sit om lot
more than oHe hour
a/ier de/i'osting. Room
teml)eramre promotes
the growth of harmhfl
bacteria.
• For more even de/i'osting
of larger fi)o(ts, such as
beef, lamb and veal
roasts, use Auto Delkost.
• [_e s/IFe large meals are
COml)letely det_:osted
be/ore (ooking.
• When deti'osted,/ood
