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 page 3437.
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 standing time of one
minute before cutting into them.
Liquids heated in certain containers (especially
cylindrical-shaped containers) may become
overheated. 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 heating 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.
