COOKING UTENSILS GUIDE
This section lists which utensils can be used in this microwave, which have limited use for short
periods, and which should not be used in this microwave.
RECOMMENDED
Microwave browning dish — Used to brown the exterior of small items such as steaks, chops, or
pancakes. Follow the directions provided with your browning dish.
Microwaveable plastic wrap — Used to retain steam. Leave a small opening for some steam to
escape and avoid placing it directly on the food.
Paper towels and napkins — Used for short-term heating and covering; these absorb excess
moisture and prevent spattering. Do not use recycled paper towels, which may contain metal and
could ignite.
Glass and glass-ceramic bowls and dishes — Used for heating or cooking.
Paper plates and cups — Used for short-term heating at low temperatures. Do not use recycled
paper, which may contain metal and could ignite.
Wax paper — Used as a cover to prevent spattering.
Thermometers — Used only those labeled "Microwave Safe" and follow all directions. Check the
food in several places. Conventional thermometers may be used on microwave food once the
food has been removed from the oven.
LIMITED USE
Aluminum foil — Used narrow strips of foil to prevent overcooking of exposed areas. Using too
much foil can damage your oven. You should keep distance of 1 inch (2.54 cm) between
aluminum foil and cavity.
Ceramic, porcelain, and stoneware — Use these if they are labeled "Microwave Safe". If they are
not labeled, test them to make sure they can be used safely.
Plastic — Use only if labeled "Microwave Safe". Other plastics can melt.
NOT RECOMMENDED
Glass jars and bottles — Regular glass is too thin to be used in a microwave. It can shatter and
cause damage and injury.
Paper bags— There are a fire hazard, except for popcorn bags that are designed for microwave
use.
Styrofoam plates and cups — These can melt and leave an unhealthy residue on food.
Plastic storage and food containers — Containers such as margarine tubs can melt in the
microwave.
Metal utensils — These can damage your oven. Remove all metal before cooking.
Note :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.
