GEÜINC TO KNOW YOUR MICROWAVE OVEN
TteONC YOUR DINNERWARE OR COOKWARE
Test dinnerware or cookware before using.
To test a dish for safe
use, put it into the oven
with a cup of water
beside it. Cook at 100%
cook power for 1 minute.
If the dish gets hot and
water stays cool, do
not use it.
Some dishes (melamine, some ceramic dinnerware,
etc.) absorb microwave energy, becoming too hot to
handle and slowing 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).

allow a standing time of 1 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 harm
the oven and possibly injure someone.
containers, but the heat
from the food can make
the container hot.
