ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS

It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many

pieces already in your kitchen can be used suc-

cessfully in your new microwave oven. Make sure

the utensil does not touch the interior walls during

cooking.

Use these utensils for safe microwave cooking

and reheating:

• glass ceramic (Pyroceram

Corningware

• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex

• microwave-safe plastics

• paper plates

• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porce-

lain

• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended

preheating time. Follow manufacturer's direc-

tions.)

These items can be used for short time reheating

of foods that have little fat or sugar in them:

• wood, straw, wicker

DO NOT USE

• metal pans and bakeware

• dishes with metallic trim

• non-heat-resistant glass

• non-microwave-safe plastics (margarine tubs)

• recycled paper products

• brown paper bags

• food storage bags

• metal twist-ties

Should you wish to check if a dish is safe for

microwaving, place the empty dish in the oven and

microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds. A dish which

becomes very hot should not be used.

ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE MICROWAVE

Children below the age of 7 should use the micro-

wave oven with a supervising person very near to

them. Between the ages of 7 and 12, the super-

vising person should be in the same room.

The child must be able to reach the oven comfort-

ably; if not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.

At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or

swing on the oven door.

)

The following coverings are ideal:

• Paper towels are good for covering foods for

reheating and absorbing fat while cooking ba-

con.

• Wax paper can be used for cooking and re-

heating.

• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for mi-

crowave use can be used for cooking and re-

heating. DO NOT allow plastic wrap to touch

food. Vent so steam can escape.

• Lids that are microwave-safe are a good choice

because heat is kept near the food to hasten

cooking.

• Oven cooking bags are good for large meats

or foods that need tenderizing. DO NOT use

metal twist ties. Remember to slit bag so steam

can escape.

How to use aluminum foil in your microwave

oven:

• Small flat pieces of aluminum foil placed

smoothly on the food can be used to shield

areas that are either defrosting or cooking too

quickly.

• Foil should not come closer than one inch to

any surface of the oven.

Should you have questions about utensils or cov-

erings, check a good microwave cookbook or fol-

low recipe suggestions.

ACCESSORIES There are many microwave acces-

sories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully

before you purchase so that they meet your needs.

A microwave-safe thermometer will assist you in

determining correct doneness and assure you that

foods have been cooked to safe temperatures.

Sharp is not responsible for any damage to the

oven when accessories are used.

Children should be taught all safety precautions:

use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay

special attention to packages that crisp food be-

cause they may be extra hot.

Don't assume that because a child has mastered

one cooking skill he/she can cook everything.

Children need to learn that the microwave oven is

not a toy. See page 15 for Child Lock feature.
