ABOUT UTENSILS AND COVERINGS
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
Corningware
.
®
•
heat-resistant glass (Pyrex
•
microwave-safe plastics
•
paper plates
•
microwave-safe pottery, stoneware and porcelain
•
browning dish (Do not exceed recommended pre-
heating 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
•
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 microwav-
ing, 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 re-
heating and absorbing fat while cooking bacon.
•
Wax paper can be used for cooking and reheating.
•
Plastic wrap that is specially marked for micro-
wave 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 oven.
Should you have questions about utensils or coverings,
check a good microwave cookbook or follow recipe
suggestions.
ACCESSORIES There are many microwave acces-
sories available for purchase. Evaluate carefully before
you purchase so that they meet your needs. A micro-
wave-safe thermometer will assist you in determining
correct doneness and assure you that foods have been
cooked to safe temperatures. Fulgor is not responsible
for any damage to the oven when accessories are used.
ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE
MICROWAVE
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 oven comfortably; if
not, he/she should stand on a sturdy stool.
At no time should anyone be allowed to lean or swing
on the oven door.
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.
Don't assume that because a child has mastered one
cooking skill he/she can cook everything.
Children need to learn that the microwave oven is not a
toy. See page 20 for Child Lock feature.
