INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
paper, microwave plastic wrap or a lid. Cov-
ers prevent spattering and help foods to cook
evenly.
• Shield with small flat pieces of aluminum foil
any thin areas of meat or poultry to prevent
overcooking before dense, thick areas are
cooked thoroughly.
• Stir foods from outside to center of dish once or
twice during cooking, if possible.
• Turn foods over once during microwaving to
speed cooking of such foods as chicken and
hamburgers. Large items like roasts must be
turned over at least once.
• Rearrange foods such as meatballs halfway
through cooking both from top to bottom and
from right to left.
• Add standing time. Remove food from Drawer
Microwave and stir, if possible. Cover for stand-
ing time which allows the food to finish cooking
without overcooking.
• Check for doneness. Look for signs indicating
that cooking temperatures have been reached.
Doneness signs include:
• Food steams throughout, not just at edge.
• Center bottom of dish is very hot to the touch.
• Poultry thigh joints move easily.
• Meat and poultry show no pinkness.
• Fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Cooking Safety
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the
United States Department of Agriculture's recom-
mended temperatures.

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer
in a thick or dense area away from fat or bone.
NEVER leave the thermometer in the food during
cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use.
• ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns
when handling utensils that are in contact with
hot food. Enough heat from the food can trans-
fer through utensils to cause skin burns.
• Avoid steam burns by directing steam away
from the face and hands. Slowly lift the farthest
edge of a dish's covering and carefully open
popcorn and oven cooking bags away from the
face.
• Stay near the Drawer Microwave while it is in
use and check cooking progress frequently so
that there is no chance of overcooking food.
• NEVER use the oven for storing cookbooks or
other items.
• Select, store and handle food carefully to pre-
serve its high quality and minimize the spread
of foodborne bacteria.
• Keep waveguide cover clean. Food residue
can cause arcing and/or fires.
