ABOUT YOUR OVEN
NEVER use the oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish
could be placed in the oven. The turntable will turn both clockwise and anclockwise.
The shelf gives you the opon to reheat more than one dish of food at the same me. To reheat on 2
levels:
Switch places aer ½ the me.
Make sure the shelf is posioned properly inside the microwave to prevent damage to the oven
from arcing.
Do not use a microwave browning dish on the shelf. The shelf could overheat.
Do not use the oven with the shelf on the microwave floor. This could damage the microwave.
Use pot holders when handling the shelf-it may be hot.
Do not use the shelf when cooking popcorn.
ALWAYS have food in the oven when it is on to absorb the microwave energy.
When using the oven at power levels below 100%, you may hear the magnetron cycling on and off.
Condensaon is a normal part of microwave cooking. Room humidity and the moisture in food will
influence the amount of moisture that condenses in the oven. Generally, covered foods will not cause
as much condensaon as uncovered ones. Venlaon openings must not be blocked.
In using recipes or package direcons, check food a minute or two before the minimum me and add
me accordingly.
ABOUT MICROWAVE COOKING
Arrange food carefully. Place thickest areas towards outside of dish.

Watch cooking me. Cook for the shortest amount of me indicated and add more as needed.
Food severely overcooked can smoke or ignite.
Cover foods while cooking. Check recipe or cookbook for suggesons: paper towels, wax paper,
microwave plasc wrap or a lid. Covers prevent spaering and help foods to cook evenly.
Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are cooked thoroughly.
Sr foods from outside to center of dish once or twice during cooking, if possible.
Turn foods over once during microwaving to speed cooking of such foods as chicken and
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be turned over at least once.
Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway through cooking both from top to boom and from
the center of the dish to the outside.
Add standing me. Remove food from oven and sr, if possible. Cover for standing me that
allows the food to finish cooking without overcooking.
Check for doneness. Look for signs indicang that cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
7

8
-Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
-Center boom of dish is very hot to the touch.
-Poultry thigh joins move easily.
-Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
-Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
ABOUT FOOD
FOOD DO DON’T
Eggs,
sausages,
fruits &
vegetable
Puncture egg yolks before cooking to
prevent “explosion”.
Pierce skins of potatoes, apples, squash,
hot dogs and sausages so that steam
escapes.
Cook egg in shells.
Reheat whole eggs.
Popcorn
Use specially bagged popcorn for the
microwave oven.
Listen while popping corn for the
popping to slow to 1 or 2 seconds or
use special Popcorn pad.
Pop popcorn in regular
brown bags or glass bowls.
Exceed maximum me on
popcorn package.
Baby food
Transfer baby food to small dish and
heat carefully, srring oen. Check
temperature before serving.
Put nipples on boles aer heang and
shake thoroughly. “Wrist” test before
feeding.
Heat disposable boles.
Heat boles with nipples on.
Heat baby food in original
jars.
General
Cut baked goods with filling aer
heang to release steam and avoid
burns.
Sr liquids briskly before and aer
heang to avoid “erupon”.
Use deep bowl, when cooking liquids or
cereals, to prevent boilovers.
Heat or cook in closed glass
jars or airght containers.
Can in the microwave as
harmful bacteria may not be
destroyed.
Deep fat fry.
Dry wood, gourds, herbs or
wet papers.
ABOUT SAFETY
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the following recommended temperatures.
TEMP FOOD
160℉...for fresh pork, ground meat, boneless white poultry, fish, seafood, egg dishes and
frozen prepared food.
165℉…for leover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli and carry-out “fresh” food.
170℉…white meat of poultry.
180℉…dark meat of poultry.

9
To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense area away from fat of bone.
NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave
oven use.
ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils that are in contact with hot
food. Enough heat from the food can transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.
Avoid steam burns by direcng steam away from the face and hands. Slowly lithe farthest edge
of a dish’s covering and carefully open popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the face.
Stay near the oven while it’s in use and check cooking progress frequently so that there is no
chance of overcooking food.
NEVER use the cavity for storing cookbooks or other items.
Select, store and handle food carefully to preserve its high quality and minimize the spread of
food borne bacteria.
Keep waveguide cover clean. Foodresidue can cause arcing and/or fires.
Use care when removing items from the oven so that utensil, your clothes or accessories do not
touch the safety door latches.
ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used
successfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure the utensil does not touch the interior walls
during cooking.
Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking and reheang
glass ceramic
heat-resistant glass
microwave-safe plascs
paper plates
microwave-safe poery, stoneware and porcelain
browning dish
These items can be used for short me reheang of foods that have lile fat or sugar in them:
wood, straw, wicker
DO NOT USE
metal pans and bake ware
dishes with metallic trim
non-heat-resistant glass
non-microwave-safe plasc
recycled paper bags
food storage bags
metal twist-es
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 reheang and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheang.
Plasc wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheang.
DO NOT allow plasc wrap to touch food. Vent so steam can escape.

10
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 es. 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 defrosng 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.
Galanz 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 me should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the oven door.
Children should be taught all safety precauons; use potholders, remove coverings carefully and
pay special aenon 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.
