12. Microwave convenience foods are often
packaged in specially designed packaging.
Special plates, lids, containers, or other
unique packaging materials may be used.
Susceptor packing material (a thin,
metalized plastic film) is frequently used to
help brown and crisp foods such as
microwave pizzas, French fries, or fish
sticks. Be sure to follow food package
instructions carefully. Contact convenience
food manufacturer with questions
concerning these products. Amana
Refrigeration, Inc., does not endorse
any brand of microwave convenience foods,
or any type of microwave food packaging.
13. Do not operate microwave oven empty.
This could damage the oven.
14. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in
oven. Most cooking thermometers contain
mercury and may cause “arcing”,
malfunction, and/or damage to oven.
15. Do not heat sealed containers in oven.
Containers with restricted openings such as
syrup bottles or baby food jars must not be
used for cooking. Food or liquid could
expand quickly and cause container or bag
to break. Pierce or open container or bag
before heating.
16. Metal or ceramic accessories which are
designed to absorb microwave energy to
provide heat may be used with caution. Test
device before use (See "Microwave Utensil
Test" on page 15). Read and follow
manufacturer's instructions provided with the
accessory. Contact accessory manufacturer
with questions concerning these
accessories. Amana Refrigeration, Inc.,
does not endorse any brand of accessory.
17. Never use newspapers in oven since paper
may ignite.
18. Pierce or open plastic bags (and other
airtight containers) before heating in
microwave oven. This allows steam to
escape during cooking.
19. Containers may become hot and pot
holders may be needed.
20. Closely supervise any use by children.
Make sure they can read instructions and
reach controls. Never allow them to lean or
swing on oven door.
