Child Safety - Viking 3 Serie Manual Del Usuario

IMPORTANT–
It is not necessary to buy all new cookware. Many pieces already in your kitchen can be used successfully 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
• heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
• microwave-safe plastics
• microwave-safe paper plates
• microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
• browning dish (Do not exceed recommended preheating time. Follow manufacturer's directions.)
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 (cookie sheets / brownie pans)
• 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.
The following coverings are ideal:
• Paper towels are good for covering foods for reheating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
• Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
• Plastic wrap that is specially marked for microwave use can be used for cooking and reheating. 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 microwave oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings, check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe suggestions.
Accessories
There are many microwave accessories 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. Viking Range, LLC is not responsible for any damage to the microwave oven
when accessories are used.

Child Safety

• Children below the age of 7 should use the microwave oven with a supervising person very near to them. Between the
ages of 7 and 12, the supervising person should be in the same room. The child must be able to reach the microwave
oven comfortably.
• At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing on the microwave oven.
• Children should be taught all safety precautions: use potholders, remove coverings carefully, pay special attention to
packages that crisp food because they may be extra hot.
