MICROWAVE COOKING TIPS (CONT.)

Using aluminum foil (cont.)

• Place the container in a glass bowl and add some

water so that it covers the bottom of the container,

not more than V4 in. (.64 cm) high. This ensures

even heating of the container bottom.

• Always remove the lid to avoid damage to the

oven.

• Use only undamaged containers.

• Do not use containers taller than 34 in. (1.9 cm).

• Container must be at least half filled.

• To avoid arcing, there must be a minimum V4 in.

(.64 cm) between the aluminum container and the

walls of the oven and also between two aluminum

containers.

Always place the container on the turntable.

Shield with small pieces of aluminum foil, parts of

food that may cook quickly, such as wing tips and

leg ends of poultry.

Heating food in aluminum foil containers usually

takes up to double the time compared to reheating

in plastic, glass, china, or paper containers.

The time when food is ready will vary depending

upon the type of container you use.

Let food stand for 2 to 3 minutes after heating so

that heat is spread evenly throughout container.

Cooking you should not do in your

microwave oven

Do not do canning of foods in the oven. Closed

glass jars may explode, resulting in damage to the
oven.

Do not use the microwave oven to sterilize objects

(baby bottles, etc.). It is difficult to keep the oven at

the high temperature needed for sterilization.

Removing the rack

• When popping commercially packaged popcorn.

Remove the rack from the oven; Do not place the
bag of microwave popcorn on the rack or under the
rack.

• In the case of popping microwave popcorn with

rack, that can cause the fire or damage to your
microwave oven.
