Operating Safety Precautions
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using
the microwave oven, follow the precautions
on pages 30-33.
Never cook or reheat a whole egg. Steam
build-up in whole eggs may cause them to burst
and burn you, and possibly damage the oven.
Slice hard boiled eggs before heating. In rare
instances, poached eggs have been known to
explode. Cover poached eggs and allow a stand-
ing time of one minute before cutting into them.
Liquids heated in certain containers (especially
cylindrical-shaped containers) may become over-
heated. The liquid may splash out with a loud
noise during or after heating or when adding
ingredients (coffee, etc.) resulting in harm to the
oven and possible personal injury. For best
results stir any liquid several times before heat-
ing or reheating.
Never lean on the door or allow a child to
swing on it when the door is open. Injury could
result.
Use hot pads. Microwave energy does not
heat containers, but the hot food does.
