+ DO NOT attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave oven. Cooking oils may burst into flames and may cause damage to the oven and perhaps result in bums. Microwave utensils may not be able to withstand the temperature of the hot oil, and could shatter or melt. 4) FOODS WITH NONPOROUS SKINS,
* Potatoes, apples, whole eggs, egg yolks, whole squash and sausages are examples of foods with nonporous skins, These types of foods must be pierced before microwave cooking to prevent their bursting.
+ Use fresh potatoes for baking and cook until j 5) LIQUIDS
+ Liquids can become "superheated" in a microwave, and when the container is moved in any way, the si liquids can "explode" out of the container. "Superheated water is hotter than boiling water, EVEN THOUGH IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BUBBLE. To reduce the possibility of this occurrence:
Always make sure that liquids are stirred vigorously before heating to assure that the liquid is mixed with air. NEVER HEAT LIQUIDS FOR AN EXCESSIVE LENGTH OF TIME. 6) GLASS TRAY / COOKING UTENSILS / FOIL
+ Cooking utensils get hot during microwaving. Heat is transferred from the HOT food to the container and the Glass Tray. Use potholders when removing utensils from the oven or when removing lids or plastic wrap covers from cooking utensils to avold burns. The Glass Tray will get hot during cooking. It should be allowed to coo! before handling or before paper products, such as paper plates or microwave popcom bags, are placed in the oven for microwave cooking. When using foil, skewers, warming rack or utensils made of metal In the oven, allow at least 1-Inch (2.5 om) of space between metal material and interior oven walls. If arcing occurs (sparking), remove metal material (skewers etc.) and/or transfer to a non-metallic container. Dishes with metallic trim should not be used, as arcing may occur. If an entree is heated in a foil tray, maintain at least 1-inch
(2.5 cm) spacing from the oven walls, PAPER TOWELS / CLOTHS:

+ If an oven cooking bag is used for microwave cooking, prepare according to package directions. DO NOT use a wire twist-tie to close bag, instead use plastic ties, cotton string or a strip cut from the open end of the bag. 9) THERMOMETERS.
+ DO NOT use a conventional meat thermometer in your oven. Arcing may occur. Microwave-safe thermometers are available for both meat and candy. 10) BABY FORMULA / FOOD
* DO NOT heat baby formula or food in the microwave oven. The glass jar or surface of the food may appear to be only warm while the interior can be so hot as to bum the infant's mouth and esophagus. 11) REHEATING PASTRY PRODUCTS
+ When reheating pastry products, check temperatures of any fillings before eating. Some foods have fillings which heat faster and can be hot, while the surface remains warm to the touch (ex. Jelly Donuts). 12) GENERAL OVEN USAGE GUIDELINES
