IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
FOODS
Do not pop popcorn in your microwave oven unless in a
special microwave popcorn accessory
or unless you use popcorn labeled for use in microwave
ovens.
Do not boil eggs in a microwave oven. Pressure will
build up inside egg yolk and will cause it to burst,
possibly resulting in injury.
Operating the microwave with no food inside for more
than a minute or two may cause damage to the oven
and could start a fire. It increases the heat around the
magnetron and can shorten the life of the oven.
Foods with unbroken outer "skin" such as potatoes, hot
dogs, sausages, tomatoes, apples, chicken livers and
other giblets, and egg yolks should be pierced to allow
steam to escape
during cooking.
SUPERHEATED WATER
Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea, are able to
be overheated beyond the boiling point without
appearing to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when
the container is removed from the microwave oven is
not always present. THIS COULD RESULT
IN VERY HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN
THE CONTAINER IS DISTURBED OR A SPOON OR OTHER
UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO THE LIQUID.
To reduce the risk of injury to persons:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Foods cooked in liquids (such as pasta) may
tend to boil more rapidly than foods containing less
moisture. Should this occur, refer to the
Care and cleaning of the microwave oven section
for instructions on how to clean the inside of
the oven.
Avoid heating baby food in glass jars, even with
the lid off. Make sure all infant food is thoroughly
cooked. Stir food to distribute the heat evenly.
Be careful to prevent scalding when warming formula.
The container may feel cooler than the formula really is.
Always test the formula before feeding the baby.
Don't defrost frozen beverages in narrow-necked
bottles (especially carbonated beverages). Even if the
container is opened, pressure can build up. This can
cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in injury.
Hot foods and steam can cause burns. Be careful when
opening any containers of hot food, including popcorn
bags, cooking pouches and boxes. To prevent possible
injury, direct steam away from hands and face.
Do not overcook potatoes. They could dehydrate and
catch fire, causing damage to your oven.

at least an INTERNAL temperature
of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually
protects against foodborne illness.
